I think no matter what I do I will never be able to overcome this.At 5'10 in country where average male height is almost 6ft I feel shorter than men most of the time. To be honest my crushes although 5'3-5'5 where never attracted to me. Their boyfriends were always some 6'3-6'7 big dudes which on area where I live is common. Sometimes I forget it temporarly but then event occurs which triggers me. Today while returning from kickbox while sparring with my coach who is 6ft and 120kg I felt broken legs,pain in the head and chest,I felt like a real warrior,like a real man. 100m from the gym I saw cute small girl like 5'3.She was walking sliglty faster then me by my side.It tought she maybe liked me,then all of a sudden two 6'7 guys with 200kg showed up from opposite side blocked my way and one kissed her. I had two move away to not by accident get into them. Such big dudes,even one could easily kill me and I have 93kg and do bodybuilding. I felt like a pussy,I felt so weak,I felt like I am less of a man than he is,I felt that even if I could bench press 140kg and be a pro level kickboxer such big guy would easily kill me.

this post is so shit that it makes me think you are one of the following
You spend more time talking (and wanking?) about tall big guys that you do on anything else.

You have little man syndrome. It can become pathological if you take it too far. Focus on what else you can offer besides height. There are over 200 points of attraction for women, height being only one.

"Shorter men responded more aggressively when they were made to compete in the psychological barometers with tall men to make up for their lack of height. It was also found that these men with short stature, who may have faced bullying and aggression in the past from peers, may have adopted a defensive strategy to make up for their complex. Aggressiveness and being extra assertive were found to be easy tactics for many to overcompensate for their stature. Surprisingly, no such comparison was seen in women, who were found to feel more insecure, irrespective of their height.
Studying the test patterns, it was seen that men, who felt the least masculine were circled out to be at a risk of committing crimes, as much as three times more likely. This problem is what researchers like to call the “short man syndrome”. Yes, it’s a real "

"it's either 1) a myth. or 2) a derogatory label of an effect of the discrimination that short guys sometimes suffer; if a short guy is ignored, patronised, etc, because of his height, and he reacts like any normal human being would (with some distaste/sadness/anger), how is that a "syndrome"? if I made fun of a person for the size of their ears, is it fair to call their personality "big-ears syndrome" if they feel belittled and insulted? thought not, so obviously, I wouldn't say "short man syndrome" is a fair label at all. the world judges people on their height, and if they try to make people see past their height (e.g. in having a healthy sense of confidence which parallels everybody else's), how is that abnormal? is it, then, to suggest that short people shouldn't be confident in themselves? are short guys not allowed to be angry or sad at anything ever? that's some oppressive-ass shit right there"

Height is relative to specific populations. In the US you would be above average height. In Asia you would be quite tall. It's funny where I live because it's mostly people from Latin America so I have a good foot of height above the women. It never really occurred to me that their men would be intimidated by my height. But yeah if I wanted I could go around snatching up hot Latinas and use height for advantage. I'd still have to have something else to offer and game them to get the panties off.
The attraction point with height is women like dangerous men. You can be dangerous in many ways. Being articulate is very dangerous. You become articulate by reading. Go listen to Mike Sartain talk. He does audiobooks at 2x speed while he works out. Find other ways to project a dangerous persona. Then you'll be hitting the same attraction point as the tall guys.

If I remember well you are 6'1.You are definately not short,but its not something I consider tall given the place where I live. I am not intimadated by 6'1,6'2 guys. Its more about 6'5+ heavy guys. And they pop every now and then every time I go outside.
whytehorse2021 3y ago
Actually I'm 5'11.75". Yeah the nurses rub it in by making me take off my shoes at my annual physical. Then they see my 110lb wife and it kinda cancels that.

Eh, at the end of they day it’s the mothers fault for their children’s shitty genetics. it’s when women fail to utilize their hypergamy properly when they reach the wall and babie-rabies kick in. My mother chose to have children with a 5’7 black dude even tho she knew black men are lower smv in America.

My father is 6'3

but my mother is 5'3 so I got her genetics

I had a drill instructor who was 5' 4", built like a fucking brick shit house. Even at 6', I was very intimidated. Why? Not because he had the authority, but he had the PRESENCE of authority. When he spoke, it was with confidence, and from the gut. "GET OUT THAT MOTHERFUCKING LATRINE AND FALL IN!" was enough to make your piss so scared it ran back up into your kidneys.
It doesn't matter how tall you are. What matters is that you have that PRESENCE.

You're tall....... taller than most. You have the option to go to literally the country next door and be taller than most men.
You feel inadequate, but it's not because of your height.
If you wanna be big and bulk up then do it..... and you should..... but you're plenty tall enough.

thanks it calmed me down

I'm 5'10 and most people I know are the same height or taller than me. You know what's funny? Is that they all think I'm the tallest guy and only realize I'm shorter when we directly compare, head to head.
Something something about presence.

I am not living in USA,I am aware that 5'10 is average in USA and most countries in Europe but come where I live and you will feel like a dwarf at 6 foot
dongking 3y ago
Seems like you're in fantasy black pill world. There is no place on earth where 6 foot is considered short.
Netherlands, which is the country with the tallest people - 6 foot is average for men.

Actually wait. You're not the sad_farm/open_tha_door alt guys
Nevermind. I'm removing my mod comment I thought you were part of those alts that keep repeatedly posting about height insecurity. But still, don't go overboard on the height posts

Ok,I know that it is common question,I would not repeat it this year
Vermillion-Rx Admin 3y ago
Nah there is an alt farm asking the same questions, I thought it was you, I apologize
