166 cm (5'6) here. I remember one situation, I had a crush on girl from work but didnt tell her becouse I felt shes out of my league, but we were good friends at work, often sitting in hotdesks together etc. After some time I decided to take care of myself and went to gym. After couple months effects were visible one time she looked at me, checked whole of me and said "if you would be 10cm taller I would hit on you". The most confidence shattering moment of my life.
Most of the CEOs are tall, guess why. Because most of the HR managers are female. CEOs are hired. As a 5’8’’ guy 21 year old if-wing 18 hours a day entrepreneur, I don’t respect women and will never. I’ll rule the world and destroy each and everyone of them. I’ve burnt my wrist with a candle just to remind myself that by 2029 I’ve to if-wak up all girls. Idc about the humanity anymore. Everyday I watch one of these videos and go through the comments just to keep my soul angry.
the right way of thinking is: fu*k off her, if said that crap she doesn't deserve ANY attention or friendship, let her alone, go your own way, no hotdesk anymore... trust me: she can think that, any women can think that, but saying that is pure brutality, for what purpose ? making fun of you ? quit friendship, just work and fu*k off her BS...
@Badr Hari honestly the number of traditional muslim women has decreased here and the "woke" women want the traditional advantages and also the modern ones but dont want any responsibilty
Absolutley heartbreaking to think no matter how hard you work at the gym or anything else in your life your judged by the one thing you don’t have control over
Because women don't really care that you're taller, its more of a social status thing. For example let's say a girl is 4'11 and your 5'6 which is a pretty big 7 inch difference, she would still take a 6'1 guy over you because it would be seen as better by her female peers and society as a whole.
@@CarloFuller Facts man. Imagine the roles were reversed and for whatever reason men had the sexual power over women and were condiitoned by society to date the hottest women. So now picture a 5'4ft guy dating a hot female Stacy. Now this is what is actually happening in reality, only difference is that short and out of shape women actually date Chads
@@CarloFuller agreed. It's not only about the guy being taller than the girl, it's also about appearing more dominant than the other guys, as they are seen as competition.
I've seen it too. There was a guy at my work who was 6'4 and even though he was kinda ugly, gangly, with a lousy personality, had no chin and looked like a Bob's Burgers character, he still got a ridiculous amount of female attention. And most of those women denied it was his height but just "couldn't figure out what it was about him" that they found attractive. It's hardwired into female DNA to select for height.
Yeah, it just depends on the woman too. Some wouldn’t go near an ugly guy who’s 6’4, but others are specifically looking for height so they don’t mind as long as the guy is tall
I have figured out that is what Tinder is. Its male prostitution. Its just that men are paid with uncommitted sex. So if you want to do as well just be a sugar daddy.
Although I’m not short short (I’m 5’8”) I’ve experienced height discrimination from women. I’ve seen SO many women turn me down, only to fall for the same line from a tall guy. Oh well, it worked out great, because I met a woman that didn’t care and we’ve been married for 42 years. However, it may be worse today because of social media.
5'8 IS SHORT IN DATING MARKET, its cope brother, just try to hit the gym and do this shit, dating market is ruined, under 6ft there will always be a blackpill moment to think about every day
@@ususahaha7801 maybe that's how you feel, when I was in the Army there were hardened men that didn't let dumb sh*t bring them down and they were better leaders than many guys taller than them. They were out with different girls every week. A lot of it really comes down to confidence and the way one carriers themselves. People can sense when somebody is confident and has life by the balls. As a combat vet I laugh at all the people thinking that one trait makes them such a catch or such a tuff guy, it's comical for people who have never been in the sh*t.
@@ZainAhmed-ns2di yep, obviously my account is satire but I'm 5'8, when I was on active duty, legit slaying every weekend a new one. I even had girls say they felt safer with me than their ex who was 6'3 ect. But trained in martial arts, grew up in the hood, went to combat, and hit the gym, 2 Masters degrees. Why should I feel inferior because I'm not above 6ft? It's beta mentality. If many guys just understood that they would do a lot better. Many dont even try because they set themselves up for rejection before even making the move. If some girl has something to say, well it wouldn't be the first time somebody said something critical.of me but I learned at a young age to not give AF about what anybody thinks. People think 4 inches will.make or break the entire life, is ridiculous. Wear some boots and now it's 2 inches. I've even talked multiple taller guys off the ledge when they started doubting themselves or having a relationship issue. Can't put a price on life experience that's for sure.
@@ususahaha7801 5’8 is seen as short in online dating because of height inflation. The same phenomenon that’s to blame for women thinking 6’0 and 6’1 is avg (5’9-5’11 guys lying). In reality a man who stands at a strong 5’8 173-174 centimeters midday in his bare feet is not short in most countries.
I am 5'5" in my 50s. Everything Mr. Waffles presented has been my experience. I was an **cel way before the term was created. Based on this and other channels it is heartbreaking to see way more young men now going through what I did. When I was in college 80% of my friend group did have experiences with women. I was part of the 20% that lived as a Benedictine monk. I personally saw a shorter pudgy guy in college go the Jestermaxxing route. It blew my mind women fell for it. The realization that what society and family told you about what attracts a woman is an outright lie was devastating. The only times my height is a positive is on an airplane and shopping for vintage clothing.
I am a 165cm, 37 year old dude who is quite handsome with good status, I used to get a lot of attention from women before 2010 (in fact I used to date several tall girls) but in the last years it has almost completely died down. The reason I'm using that particular date is because social media and online dating didn't exist back then and women weren't nearly as much as deluded about themselves. The struggle is real, a fit body and a good face can only get you so far.
Especially with early Zoomer females; it’s a No Mans Land that only the top tier can survive. I’m in my mid 20s and the standards are astronomical. I kinda hate my generation. 😢
I remember one time my friend was on a blind date with a girl who brought her friend. He invited me to be his wingman and talk to her friend. She was a blonde girl at least an 8 in looks. When I came over to her she was very obvious about not being attracted to me. She didn't give good eye contact, gave one-word answers and even rolled her eyes a few times (this almost never happens to me); whenever I made an advance she would turn away. Later in the night we went to a different bar and this 6'2 Chad was walking next to her.....she was holding his hand. He towered over me even though I was taller than her (I'm 5'9 and she was about 5'3).....I got race-mogged, height-mogged, and face-mogged that day.....it sucked.
Good for her, buddy. Chads always have multiple girls to sleep around, hopefully when she gets dumped by him for another chick, she may realize you would have been a better choice.
I remember one time back in my freshman year of college I was talking to this one girl. She told me that I’m too short for her. I’m 5’9. And I said “What do you mean I’m too short? I’m 5’9 and you’re 5’4” She said “I prefer guys who are 6 ft and above” I responded “Well I prefer girls who are smart” She responded “Get the fuck away from me” I said “Say less” I walked away and never spoke to her again. Girls these days are something else.
You can get girls my man. Height most definitely matters. Being Tall(er) is attractive. But people here are exaggerating it. First of all, these 6 ' 3 unattractive dudes getting girls is a farce. You gotta be good looking in the face to get girls. Height doesnt compensate for it. Secondly, There is a threshold height for most women (around the average of the nation), above height isnt a deal-breaker at all Be 176-177 (5'9-10) above and good looking in Western nations, barely anyone will reject you. Dylan Sprouse, Tom Hardy etc are examples. Similarly be 169-170(5'6-5'7) above & good looking, nobody is rejecting a prime Shah Rukh Khan here in India.
My buddy completely snapped on one of those girls not that long ago and I don't even blame him. He's 5'9 and she told him he was too short, and he just goes the hell off on her, calling her shallow and delusional and whatever else. This was on tinder and she reported him for flipping out on her and he got permanently banned lol. He has to keep making fake google voice numbers to get on tinder now.
As a short guy (5'7") it's brutal out there. I was in a club one time when I was 22 trying to get a drink at the bar and the bar was packed. Two guys probably about 6'2 we're just standing there talking to two girls taking up space. I said "excuse me, I'm just trying to get the bar.". One of the guys looked at me and patted me on the head and said "sorry little guy why don't you try over there." And he pointed down the bar somewhere else. I almost exploded. Honestly looking back I wish I did, no doubt would have got my ass kicked but I let too many assholes slide for their behavior growing up. I mean I get it I'm short but at least treat people like their f****** human, not subhuman.
@@aboubakartoure20 I'm good, I'm married for 10 years with two kids right now. I'm just pointing out how hard it was for me as a smaller guy when I was looking for somebody. It's truly like going through life on "hard" mode. Mostly, women pay you no attention and other guys dismiss you as a beta. Work it's the same thing, hard to be taken seriously. It's not impossible, but it can be done. The process is not fun or easy though. Maybe I'm just paying for some sins in a past life or something.
I was in a relationship with a girl about my height. Worst experience of my life tbh. Hearing a grown woman shaming me for my height everyday was insane and I'm 1,75 cm. She single handedly made me insecure About everything i am
Coping or not, better to keep trying and move forward than analyzing how unfair the world is... 5'5 here - everything that WW says is true so it wasn't surprising or shocking. Bullied at school (check), few matches on Tinder (check), love life in general -> like a barren desert (check). Still, all you can do is smile, and not give up and beat yourself over it. Even though we don't have the women, we can still be successful in life. Good luck guys, let's do it.
My late mother told me she used to keep a photograph of the film star Alan Ladd taped to the inside of the top cover of her school desk. She said she was so shocked when she discovered he wore steps in his shoes to increase his height that she took his picture down. We're talking by the way of a time some 90 years ago. Nothing changes...
@@conbro0985 Even though I don't agree with body shaming, we should judge them on their weight. Since they think it's okay to judge us on things we don't have control over. All hell would break loose 😂😂😂😂😂

Yep it definitely exists. I'm 6ft tall and every girl I've been in a medium to long term relationship with has at some point mentioned how happy they are that I'm 6ft (without me ever bringing up height). I even had one girl (objectively the hottest of them all) blatantly tell me 6ft is her absolute minimum and she "doesn't even look at guys under 6ft". I feel for you short kings 🙏
I’m 6’2 and I still struggle when it comes to dating, although I’m also mildly autistic but that doesn’t really matter because I’m so high functioning that people don’t even notice and I get along really well with people.
And I promise u all those relationships sucked as far as their personalities went cuz they looked at you as a boy toy socially speaking moreso than the one or the love of their lives or that special person. Those relationships are usually shallow like the women that initiate them. This may be seen as a cope but the high divorce rates don’t indicate that height has anything to do with a lower chance of divorce, which is ultimately the end goal.
The truth is height helps in every aspect of your social life, not just with women. People pick you in the football team, you appear more charismatic, you do better at job interviews, client facing, people are wary of picking up fights with you...
basically: tall women: i must get with a Beast, else i might lose my height advantage short women: i must also get with the Beast, else my children will be short like me EVERYONE LOVES the BEAST LOL regular guy: what about me??...
@@Alan_J_Silva I’m 6 4-5 and agree but if your facial issues can be fixed with surgery then you are in a considerably better position than someone who is high tier normy in the face but 5 6”
Another commenter wondered what it must be like to be short. I'm 5'4" and in my 60s. Back then in my teens and 20s, we didn't have social media to tell us what we liked and didn't like. I was bullied a bit in school, but I gave as good as I got, and it stopped. I loved the roller-skating rink and became pretty good. I got noticed. I was there to skate and some of the girls would ask for help. Not a lot but I did date. You have a term for it now; "shit testing". "I don't want you to play football your senior year." Why? "I want to go out with you on Friday AND Saturday". Fuck that, I'm playing ball. And so one. After like 25, most had pared off and I was left to do whatever I wished. What's it like to be short. Well, you know other guys will not take you seriously. Nor any women that are now divorced. Crowds are a no-no. Social events aren't "really" social for you. You learn to find fulfillment with the things that interest you and you acquire skills. You save money since you're not dating. (Which you put into your interest) You become an expert at whatever it is you do. You learn to master your time. I was a career military man and with no family to hold be down, I saw a large slice of the world. Not always under the best conditions of course but you take what you get. My home is paid for, and I make my own sandwiches. Some of my old flames have come back around from time to time, older, heaver. It happens. I'm older and heaver. I'm also not inclined to need or want any additional "burdens". I'm still active and lift weights. I suppose most people consider me a bit strange. Old man lifting weights in his garage for no other reason than I can. Most people will never be accepting of a short man so it's pointless to try. You better learn to be happy in your own head, as I've done. Women will leave you and friends will die. Learn to be happy in your own head. I enjoyed the video, not one surprise in it. You better know your own worth.
5’1 man (at this height, not even) here. Not growing anymore. 17. I’ve just accepted that I will one day end my life because of my height. Unfortunately my height was a genetic failure. How torturous it is being forced to live such a life. Nobody should have to go through what short men feel on a daily basis.
@subzero 30 year old male here at just over 5'6, 5'7 with shoes, Ive two kids and have had a reasonable amount of women... Never give up and it ain't as bad out there as the internet makes out, you're young and you've got your whole life ahead of you brother... What I'd suggest is getting to a doctor, expressing your concerns, mention low testosterone etc etc, limiting your growth, you're 17 you still have a few years to grow and there are medicines out there to help that happen whilst you are still that age... I wish I'd done that but in my day you didn't, you just got on with things and nobody gave a fuck the way everyone does these days.. there was no help... All the best mate, I know how you feel, been through everything you're going through, don't let it consume you and focus on the things that can be changed and improve them.
Don’t worry you will do great in life keep your head up. And Trust me being taller doesn’t make it any easier, since everyone’s human and there’s no difference 5”1 or 6ft. Just work on yourself and just work on your game bro
It would be interesting to understand the reasons behind preference for taller guys and what is wired in women's primal brain. I can think of two: 1) She wants the "tall" genes for her baby (regardless of whether she wants babies or not, that's what her primal brain is telling her) 2) It conveys a capacity for protection/aggression, so she basically feels more protected. So Height is a physical attribute that touches both sides of hypergamy : Alpha fucks (best genes for my baby) and Beta bucks (long term protection)
Spot on. Its evolutionary biology. The female brain convoludes height with protection and security. The female brain tells her that the 6'2 guy is tougher and a better fighter than the 5'9 guy. Now we as men know this is absolute bullshit. In our ancestrol past, wild animals would be less reluctant to attack a tribe of taller men, hence they can lenthen their bodies and showcase a long wingspan to look more intimidating. Its also the reason why a 30 year old attractive baby faced man, is deemed less attractive then a 30 year old guy whos face is shaped like a neadrethal. The caveman faced guy is precieved as tougher and a better fighter/protector. Hence signaling to the female brain as a better mating option.
@@robertnewett5932 But even if you prove to the woman that you can beat the tall guy, as a short guy, her brain will still not make that connection. You could be 5'5 and knock out a guy that is 6'4, and she would still go to the knocked out 6'4 tall guy lying on the ground. Actually, I've seen this on video.
If you’re less than 185cm and you accept that it is difficult, is it called “coping” if you decide to focus on other areas of your life that bring you joy and fulfilment? Or are you supposed to perpetually focus on the negative and complain? Coping seems to be used as a slur against men who prefer to focus on different aspect of their life instead.
exactly....no doubt being the ideal height would be ideal...but your life is what yo make of it. you can be 6'4" and spending your days rotting in prison
Yes that's coping. The relationship was your main goal and you couldn't get it so you turned to other aspects of life to find some fulfillment. The other aspects of life are copes that aren't all that fulfilling for the long term. But they're forced to be the main focus of your life now. Relationships, friendships, socializing (if positive reinforcement is received) brings us the most happiness.
What you are describing isn't coping and in fact has nothing to do with coping. Coping means showing delusion and denial in the face in facts, and making excuses to convince yourself to believe in something other than the truth.
@@lilcoke4069 You make it sound like a taller guy has a monopoly on happiness and fulfilment. I agree that the dating/relationship aspect of life is easier, but I cannot see how being taller equates to happiness.
@@shologungan7138 That’s what I thought it was all along. I’m 170cm tall. I know I’m a short guy. I’m fully aware of that and I don’t deny that women find taller men more attractive. However, there seems to an overuse of the word coping.
It's simply evolutionary psychology. Shorter guys are viewed as weaker. I was with my 6' Marine buddy. I'm 5'2". We met one of his female friends and he introduced me as a fellow Marine Cpl (My rank and title at the time.) She kinda laugh and though he was lying due to my small stature. My friend got pissed and we left her shortly after. She was snobby. Keep in mind I wasn't even trying to date at the time either.

I tried online dating in the 90s. Women tended to set the minimum height at 5'8". The implication being over 50% of men meet that criteria. Now the minimum is 6' cutting the pool of men by 2/3s.
Approx. 14% of US males are at least 6 ft. Night club Scenario was a good example where height dominates her choice over other pre requisites. Start adding looks and resources dating afterwards and the percentage of qualifying makes drops below 1%
@@jjsan27 the funny thing is, short men will never be bred out as long as literal midgets (4'11-5'2) women date men over 6'. As many short men are left out is only about double of the number of tall women that are also left out. Tall women are often the "nice guy" of the female dating pool.
@@westernartifact4163 what do you mean by nice guys of the dating pool. I would assume that tall woman would want an even taller man if not they stay single. Short men are being bread out. 100 years ago the average height in the holland was 5’6 and today its 6ft. All European countries followed a similar trend. So by the end of the century the average woman would be 6ft and a man of that height will be considered tiny.
@@westernartifact4163 Tall women aren't the 'nice guys' of the dating pool because unlike men, they always have options. They just choose to not take them due to hypergamy. No-one is keeping them from relationships besides themselves.
I have a 5/10 face...maybe 6 with indulgence and still, being 6"3 got me attention from girls. It's true, they weren't Miss Beauty, they were pretty or ugly and I was fortunate enough to date them. I have 3 friends with Chad face, one of them is like 5"8 and he has no problem, the girls swirl around him. Height does help because other guys I know that have a similar face like mine but are short have had bad luck when it comes to dating.
So this means that if you're short, you better have a handsome face(8-9/10), but if you don't have a handsome face, make sure you are very tall(> 6'3')

I've not found women to have much consensus on the importance of face. I've seen acne oozing men date attractive women with little difficulty if a few other popular odds were in place. Likewise, I've seen model faced men have trouble keeping whales. Face seems to also be less important than being funny. If these men say it's their face, you probably wouldn't argue a few extra inches wouldn't be a game changer. We both know it most likely would.
@@westernartifact4163 cope. You're probably a manlet. If you have a below-average face, height won't do anything for you. Also lol at the "be funny" part. Stop being so bluepilled!
I was friend who was a 6.3 9/10 actor model. Obviously he didn’t have issues getting girls, that said his personality meant that a good 50% of girls were not actually attracted to him even though they could agree he was very handsome. I know it’s not cool to say in the black pill community but personally does matter quite a lot.
I think this is such a big problem mostly in the western world. I'm Indian. There's a diverse distribution of heights owing to a large number of ethnicities. I'm 5'7 and I'm the average height in my country. I have friends who are above 6'. Although people compliment them for their height, I've never ever felt any form of discrimination because I was short. Hell, actually, I'm kind of tall for my ethnicity (we're usually so short that to get selected in the army, my ethnicity has a lower height limit), I'm the tallest in my family. I don't often face any negative backlash though, I mean of course, me and my friends joke around about height sometimes, but girls here don't just look away from someone because he's short. Hell, some girls even think I'm tall because they're usually around 5'0. I don't understand how some girls can be 4'9 and want a guy 7'2 or something, seems more like a projection of insecurity rather than a preference. I genuinely didn't know height was such an issue until I started being exposed to all these videos from TikTok by some stupid 14 year old girls.

Im 5'9 But weirdly ive been in 2 long term relationships with women who are both 6ft tall. I also used to have a FWB with a woman i met in a club who was about 6'1 to 6'2 she was an absolute amazon. A girl whos 5'6 says im short and prefers taller men... never understood that
Those tall women don't have the opportunity to feel small in a relationship like average women do so they probably grow up caring less about height whereas the 5'6 girl knows what its like feeling small by a 6ft guy so wants to continue that route
All my life, I’ve heard guys taller than me say “Just be yourself “. Even my 6 ft father. The fact that being 5’6 has anything to do with my issues doesn’t compute with them.
If you are 5'6" tall then you can aim for women that are 5'5 and smaller. It is rare that women will select a man on the basis of being extremely tall compared to her. So you will rarely see women being a foot shorter than their male partners.
that's because they don't know what it's like, honestly as a short guy i'm just better off single, dating is just a miserable weight to carry in life so just stay single and i can promise you, ur life will get better as long as you stay away from dating.

So here's your options: You can constantly beat yourself up over your lack of options on social media and dating apps. Or, you can avoid social media and dating apps, and have the exact same options while feeling better about yourself. As for those options, you should really understand what a woman's seed of doubt is. This is why they test, and thanks to certain dogmas no man can check or satiate the seed which leads women to sabotage their own relationships. Don't bother selling. Live your best life.
It doesnt matter what one thinks at all, what matters is what they are to the people around and thats about it. No woman is gonna find an ugly man attractive because he feels that he is attractive.

I told my parents I'm getting my first leg lengthening surgery this year, but they couldn't get it; I told my mother that she always insulted men around my current height growing up, saying they were unmanly, she'd never date them, etc. so it's too late for her to try and lie now. After two surgeries, I'm going to be 6'1 and leave humanity behind.
I'm 5'6 and shave my head due to receding hairline. I've totally given up on dating I literally do nothing in the way of trying to attract a partner other than look after myself for my own benefit. I just wanted to say that I definitely don't do stupid ballgame jestures to try and win people over for my lack in stature, I do find that cringy. So not every little guy does that.
@@cradohaps-bb5nd That's an exaggeration. But face is arguably more important than height. You can be 5'6 and good looking and still do well with girls. You just have more of a niche appeal.
There is nothing you can do about being short. Just live your life the best you can and let the chips fall where they may. There is more to life than women being attracted to you. Control what you can and make the best of it
It is very important where you live as a short guy. As a guy who is 5,6 but living in Serbia where average for men are 6 ft and in the area where I live men are even taller. If I lived in India nobody would notice my height, but here people look at me like I am hobbit. It is a massive handicap and there is nothing you can do. I was the shortest guy in my elementary school and second shortest in my middle school. I couldn't get a date at all because girls here are my height, but when they are on their heels they are all taller then me. They all looked at me like I am 5 years younger then them. Only when I started to go to a faculty, one guy gave me this advice and I concluded that I have a chance only with the girls who are 5,4 or shorter. All women are extremely uncomfortable if they are taller then their date when they wore high heels. On the other side men do not care how tall women are.
Like Deng Xiaoping, a former Chinese president, who started open door policy and made China richer gradually. His Nickname was literally 'a short giant'
I’m not even mad anymore. I’m 5’7 and have accepted my fate lmao. I don’t even really care about trying to get women anymore. I’ve found other things that I’m passionate about and will gladly spend the rest of my life doing.
Im 6”4 and thats my profile picture.. i have no game nor any reason to want a female.. i know the female nature. Married women and women who are in relationships come on to me. I live in small area and lot of dudes are my height so next thing is face and status.. being with a woman isn’t even something to be proud at. Women ask me or do weird shit when people ask how tall i am. Basically youre only used for your “genetics and ability to earn money”
@@adastra5469 thanks for the positivity bro, I appreciate it. My doors are always open, however I’m not gonna make a fool out of myself for some girls that wouldn’t give me a second look. If I come across a girl that mutually likes me, I’d gladly date. For right now though I’m focusing on myself.
@@mr.increlex947 thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. Most people in the black pill comment sections will just tell you to kill your self lmao. I’m not giving up on myself, I’m just not continuing to beat myself up over women. Thanks again bro
Black pill is real. It's incredible the self awareness we men take from this. Feel proud of this knowledge, guys. Don't feel pity for yourselves, I'm only 1.65 m, i feel lucky of knowing this. I stopped trying to pick up girls. There are a whole lot of cool things to do. I feel free.
I am 2m tall (6’7ft) and always thought being tall is a nightmare cause I hit my head so often and my neck hurts from looking down sometimes. Now after watching this video I am aware that there are people out there with huge problems and no solution purely cause of their height.
LOL dude you are blessed. im 175 good looking with good face and mice body! cant get most of the girls. usually they will look at my body and face but after a while they will realize im short.!
Im 6'8 and yeah there a rather girls like these heights than too short but i guess status, looks and talking skills/escalation are very important aswell.
I'm my opinion, height is definitely not everything. It also depends on where you come from. Where I live height is not one of the main criterias. (6'5)
@@samuelpatterson4813 thats not true man,,,when I was 6'0 or 1.83m tall I had fight for the attention of females,,,but now has I am still growing taller I am now barefoot 1.88m or 6'2 and 6'3 with shoes on or 190.7 or 6'3,,,I would say that for me I want to be at least 7 foot tall and 7 foot 5 minimum I am still growing taller inshallah Allah will get me to 7 foot 5 I pray to god to make me 7 foot 5
The double standards implied with mens height and body positivity (eg. fat acceptance) is irony at its finest. Being 5’7 I’ve accepted my height and am happy with who I am as a person. I work on myself, well-being, and looksmaxing. Don’t let height be a subconscious crutch and work on yourself. It is a sad reality, but any woman that superficially judges you based on height is not worth your time.
5'2 here. Even if you manage to get a gf like i did, Waffles is completely right about The internal issues being short brings to The relationship. She was always pointing out my height, doing tricks so she can look smaller than me in photos, etc... Even if you make it, I's over.
how you react/ perceive it will ultimately dictate if it's a problem for you though. I'm 5'6 and my gf is 5'10, she'll crack jokes from time to time but it doesn't bother me cause A) it's funny and B) I'm not insecure about it. Height did use to bother me when i was single which effected my mindset but once I got over it I realized my mindset was what was actually holding me back. Everything became waaaaay easier after that and I found my girlfriend 'shortly' (ba dum tss) later.
For any shorter guys in the comment section, here are my opinions and experiences (I'm around 5'8", 93kg, 13%BF, very broad shoulders and heavy build, my mom always used to joke that I look like a square meter lol) 1. Everything that was said in the video is true. Women do care about the height a lot and there's nothing you can do about it. Accept it, you won't win no woman over with your looks no matter what you do. 2. Play a sport. As a kid I was into wrestling, later switching up to amateur MMA career. Now I switched to rugby. What I noticed a lot is that in neither sport does height really matter. Learn to use your body to the best of your ability, our compact frames are better suited for weightlifting, wrestling etc, stuff that uses explosive power and low center of gravity. Bonus is you will learn to handle yourself and even get to match with much taller people in a safe environment and you won't carry this psycological burden of feeling weak that many short guys have. 3. Dont play by the rules of the society. What I mean by that is never expect to walk into the club and be the womanizer out there, won't get respect in business meetings and so on. Focus on the work and let it be your resume, your ticket to respect and women. 4. Women mostly crave security. Everything is based on biology and women want to be around the biggest, baddest alpha out there that will provide protection, food and shelter to her and potential children. You can be that dude no matter how you look like, focus on your building up your status, improving yourself both financially and mentally. Point of this all is just that you can either be depressed and angry or just accept that this is the way nature works. Nothing more and nothing less. Ironically, the less you focus on stuff outside of your control the happier and more successful you will be in the end. I have met a ton of very average tall guys with no ambitions, but I have never met anyone short who would not have a certain kind of drive to achieve something. It's easy to be comfortable for someone who has it all just by nature and comfort breeds laziness, stagnation and no results. But when you are born with a certain disadvantage, you got this fire that pushes you to prove everyone wrong. So prove em all wrong, gents.
5'3 guy here I agree with what u say MMA helped me. I work out Weight lifting,kettlebell,cardio,body weight exercises. N yes focusing on my career. Heights not in my control. I cant change it but I can max out everywhere else that I have control over
@@ThorfinnStrife I dont understand why is looking on the bright side of things coping. It´s not like im putting others down to feel better myself. Or with a more extreme example: if someone is born blind, what do you suggest? That he gets completely overtaken by his disadvantage and spends his life depressed? Or that he finds a way to deal with his disadvantage and makes use of different talents he has?
I’ve seen the height pill irl at my job. You just cannot make this shit up, rip to all shorter guys out there. I barely survived being 5’11. My heart goes out to sub 5’8* ugly guys
Damn this hurts watching this, I look at the comments and see people talking about how short they are when they’re any height below 6’0”. Most girls will always go for a guy who’s 6’1” who doesn’t work out and doesn’t take care of himself over the guy who’s 5’6” and has a good body and takes care of themselves.

@@juicingfactor1463 I thought curries were on top and rices on the bottom. I have seen much more curries with white girls, or dating overall, than rices. Only one time in my life I saw a rice guy, looked Chinese, with an actual white Stacey, the guy looked like a taller version of Bruce Lee, (Lee was 5'7"/the guy looked 5'9.5") and shredded too. I didn't stare to much, dude looked like he could kong fo my @ss.
I remember one time in a restaurant I overheard a conversation on another table of 3 young Asian women. One of them, I’m guessing was 5’2” was whining about a guy who wanted to date her and she said to him that he was only 4 inches taller and she only dated guys who were at least 1 foot taller.
She’s insecure about her height and wants her kids to be tall, I’m not tall and dated an asian girl who didn’t care about my height she just wanted someone taller or the same height and she was 5’1, i wish more girls saw things that way.
My female.middle age co-worker told me recently that everyone fancies another one of my colleagues because he's tall. I mentioned a couple of better looking male.colleagues names, she instantly dismissed them as too short. She told me plainly that women don't find short guys attractive. I believe her.
Are you always so easily impressed? i TEND TO AVOID BELIEF SYSTEMS... They're nearly always nonsense... if you're younger... now you know just how intelligent your associate really is. lol?
All the women go after a small minority of men (very tall men) and since they have so many options they can sleep around then the women get hurt and blame the short men as “all men” because if they blame the tall men it would ruin their chances of getting with one of them. The 80% after 20% idea.
5’4” here, take some shit here and there for my height, but don’t accept those perceptions. Focus on improving yourself and don’t obsess over things you cannot control. Stay strong brothers
I grew up the shortest kid in school. Was about 160 cm at age 16. Grew to 180 in 6 months. Biggest upgrade of my life. The girls who ignored me as a freshman, suddenly started flirting with me. It still makes me both happy and mad, joyful and sad.
@@pkyt2458 There is no measure to how much growing does to your confidence. It's honestly ridiculous, and it kind of sucks. Luckily, future generations can just use CRISPR to ensure height.
Many guys bash the black pill because it is so negative and yes i agree. But nobody sees the other angle. I am 6,1 and wihtout the black pill / height pill i would have never realized how blessed I am. I feel really good about my height knowing all the struggles short guys have. Also my motivation to looksmax, workout etc increased because I now think okay i got potential and can make it to the top 20%.
Thinking that you're blessed just because of getting more female attention isn't very confident and you shouldn't go around thinking you're better that someone else just because of your height. There is a difference between reality and pure negativity because it's toxic to think you're better than someone just because of your car or because of your house, it's also delusional.
I realized I was short when I was 20 (5 foot 6) I accepted what I couldnt change . Looks maxed, made money, developed social skills and I’ve never ever had a problem with women. I work on what I can control, not what I can’t.
I’m 5’6. 37 years old. To be honest it’s sucks being short. It is what it is you just learn to deal with it. Hopefully you will reach a point in life where you don’t care what people think or how people treat or perceive you. Hopefully you guys worried about your height will reach a point where being happy and at peace with yourself becomes your main priority. Live your life as you see fit and just try to enjoy life and be happy. You only got this one life make the best of it. It gets old constantly having to try to prove yourself to others, then one day you realize what and why do you have to prove anything to anybody. As long as you’re okay with you and who you are you’ll realize there’s really no point in going crazy to try to stand out of the pack and do all this extra stuff for attention or to be viewed a certain way. There is always gonna be crappy people and real good decent people out there. As you go through life you learn to decipher between people that are good in your life vs. the ones you don’t need in your life.
I'm short. I've been quite successful, relative to the average man, in my dating life. The red pill works and is real. Has my lack of height taken away some opportunities? Yea. But what am I going to do about it? Cry about it? Complain about it? Swallow the black pill, give up, and declare myself forever doomed? Or am I going to working towards being the best version of myself that I can, and continue to be successful as I have been? The choice is easy.
You’re right, but I think it’s healthy for men to also know the dark truth like you do. It’s good to know the facts when you make a calculated decision about life. So short men should indeed persevere and do the best they can, but at least they’ll know what the odds are before trying and won’t be blindsided when they mostly fail.
You're missing the point. Maybe we can jestermaxx and gymmaxx, but girls won't ever be truly attracted to us. I also get dates but girls always stare at tall guys while they are on a date with me, I don't even get mad, I just pretend I wasn't watching and resume the conversation when they finish staring. I'm happy knowing the truth, that's why I don't want to ever get married or betabuxx them. #whitepill
You must be naturally outgoing, great at sales. Not all men want to spend weeks, asking out 50+ women, to get 1 yes (or 0). They consider it a giant waste of time.
From what I’ve heard, a guy being average height is okay for virtually all girls, and being tall is a bonus. But being short (below 5’8) is a major turn off for most women. This logic can still be argued against though because I think money/fame trumps everything, look at Tom Holland and Tom cruise…
So, as a 5'4" man, I have lived the reality of the dating scene. Legitimately, the only women that have been interested in me have been single mothers. Even in my prime when I was a gym rat in my twenties with around 8-10 body fat percentage, I received no interest. I learned relatively early in my young adult life that women choose men based on their primal female nature/desire at its core. Why then do men not do the same? Why instead do men continue to adhere to the marital social construct? You as men have essentially been given permission to behave according to your own male instinct as women do theirs.
Because many chads were bluepilled in their youth. Like me, for example. I was always suspicious, but believed that caring for a woman in a LTR is the right way for a man to go. Boy, was I wrong. Should've never turned down offers for ons or fwb, should have never focused on a single girl trying to make her happy. But now I finally broke through all blue pill conditioning and I am free to go my own way. And I'll make sure my own way includes some hot 20s every now and then. Just need to hit the gym on a regular basis as I'm starting hard died in two weeks. No point in trying to make women happy. They never are - unhappiness is a natural state of being for all women, does not matter if they are 5, 6,7,8, tradcon or liberal. You focus on yourself, learn to be happy with yourself and by yourself and maybe some decent girl who is not mentally sick eventually show up. If not, you just keep your rooster.
That's not true because look at Justin Timberlake, and the Maroon 5 Singer. Both guys couldn't defend themselves against a house fly but women love them. There were always those cuter guys who were the Golden Chikdren of their parents and the parents met all their needs and put them on pedestals. These guys have high confidence and life has been easy because their parent smade sure everyone likes them. Women are attracted to the high confidence. You take a kid who's parents treated them like a burden and raised a liw self esteem child, women won't be attracted to them.
@@Lizardkingmediaproductions they re rich and famous. Women like looks, wealth, status in somewhat that order. Just confidence is overrated. I was very shy kid early on and girls were coming my way anyway. IMO, it is a combination of factors - you have to have a 3 of 5 to have women interested, otherwise you will suffer to some degree in a dating market.
Even as a 5’ 10” male I’ve been called short by several women over the years. It’s kind of a safe zone where you don’t get rejected for your height but it doesn’t grant any of the perks of extra height. Side note that may be useful, a woman significantly shorter however cannot tell the difference. Ive been told I look tall, even over 6’ tall by a few women but they were always quite tiny. I’m talking 1 was 4’ 8” and another 5’ even.
@@ViperBlackpill My aunt who rode the carousel like no other had that attitude. I lived with her briefly while she was dating a Tyrone. Man was 6 foot tall with an amazing physique and drove a BMW. He lost a house and Benz to his ex wife before they even started dating but he still had some resources. She had the nerve to say behind his back that he drove big luxury cars to compensate for his short height. I was offended (being 5’ 10” and not thinking I was short) and asked her what she meant. She explained that she considered him short because she had dating ex basketball players as tall as 7’ (which I verified was true after having met the man). She was making a 6’ man pay the penalty of not measuring up to her history of banging a 7’ Gigachad.
As someone who's 5'10.5" and loves to wear AF1 (shoes that give about 1.25" inches), I've had a similar experience where a lot of short/average girls (5'0" - 5'5") estimate my height to be 6'0" - 6'2". If you're a legit 5'10" - 5'11" barefoot you can easily fit in with the 6'0" crowd with good posture and slightly elevated shoes.
Hate to remember it but this happened to me: When I got to 7th grade I was 5ft tall and got bullied, then by halfway 8th I had a 9in growth spurt, since then I was left alone and received a lot more respect from classmates even when though on the inside I was still the same pushover shy boy

Hey I think I have a theory for the nightclub thing. When I am drunk myself I have noticed my only standart is her not being fat I usually don't notice the subhuman I have been making out with jfl.

I even think I saw some study that drink girls have almost the same chance to reject a short guy sober and drunk which is hella brutal 💀
They basically wouldn’t date themselves. 5’ 3” female’s male equivalent is 5’ 8”. 5’ correlates to 5’ 4”- 5’ 5”. Only 5’ 7”+ females equate to 6’+ males. Guess how many women are that tall? 10% approx.

the lack of height and negative interactions i had led to unhealthy mindset which then went into a negative feedback loop into mental illness and it all stemmed from anger at my physical short comings. then of course the people that don't get this will say 'yeah but you have a bad attitude and horrible personality' without realizing that's the REACTION of being treated like shit based on appearance (mostly lack of height) and not the cause.
Get over it. Stop taking people so seriously. Lighten up and stop being such a sourpuss. The world is a beautiful place and u deserve to enjoy it, not be made about something as stupid as height. If ur not 3”2 u have nothing to worry about. Go enjoy ur life
"... and it all stemmed from anger at my physical short comings" => I dont have problem with my height. A good amount of women and also some a-holes (usually the ones which are between 180-185 cm in height!) have a problem with my height. Dont let THEIR problem become YOUR problem!
I saw the height difference massively, when I was about 14 yrs old entering high school, I was about 5''4, and I remembered how girls would kind of ignore me, or talk to me as if I was a little 7yr old boy. However when I reached my growth spurt, in my senior I was standing at 6"1 (186 cm), and the same girls I went to school with acted so much differently, telling me I look mature and attractive. It came to a point where I even thought I was out of their league. I still honestly feel bad for short guys, modern dating and female requirements in a man, are so unsensible, where most want 10% of men (6ft+), without even unknowledging the shorter guys at all.
1:00 I don't agree with you there. I am 6ft and I don't want anything to do with women that care about heights that much, I don't care if I meet her standard or not, the fact that she cares in the first place is a deal breaker to me. If I can think like this, why can't short guys? Just because they don't meet her standard does not mean that she meets theirs. It is perfectly reasonable to mutually turn each other down.
I know what you mean, but in the end it is what they’re attracted to. It’s obviously false to portray the way, she does, but other girls that aren’t rude to shorter guys don’t deserve the hate. It’s what they’re attracted to and that’s sth they shouldn’t change
@@goldenace8847 I am not asking anyone to change, we all are allowed our preferences. Just as a woman is allowed to be attracted to tall guys, I am allowed to not be attracted to women who are attracted to tall guys, I am not hating on these women, we are just incompatible. It's the same as a woman is allowed to not be attracted to guys who care a lot about her boob size, if boob size is a deal breaker for him, maybe she doesn't want to date guys that care about boob size that much at all, even if her boobs are big enough for them.
Personally, I take pride that my partner appreciates my height because she knows I can protect her. She knows she can sit back and relax because she’s confident in my masculinity to protect her when shit goes bad. I don’t think it’s shallow….but that’s just my opinion.
@@TheRevivngGamer You are free to be happy being appreciated for anything you like. Personally I don't want to be appreciated for things that are not under my control, I want to be appreciated for my choices. A short man can take up martial arts and provide much more safety than an untrained tall man for example.
Most men are simps, that doesn't change with knowing blackpill. Regarding finding things attractive... it's usually a cop-out. Preferences they may be, but what vvomen are attracted to are not objective things, but the forever comparison between men. We know this because men were attractive and could get vvomen easy in past generations while being average, something which vvomen would say is not attractive? Their preference is apex fallacy.
I've always wondered when at nightclubs/concerts how the heck people are hooking up when the music is so loud you can't hear people talk. Then I realized the people hooking up weren't even really talking...it was just happening. BRUTAL Blackpill. That observation alone SINKS the Redpill.

Height pill is so true. Even if you have a good face and are gym-maxxed, money-maxxed, you can never really truly be confident in yourself if you are below 5 foot 10. I'm like 5 foot 9ish and honestly it hasn't really affected my sex life (even though it still OBVIOUSLY does--clubs are a NO GO) as much as it did in my confidence around other men in some situations. Also the girl i'm seeing is 5 8 and even though she says she doesn't care about my height, you don't need to be a genius do realize that if she bought it up in the first place then obviously she cares (as does EVERY woman). But I have no choice but to date women who are relatively tall, can't risk burdening my future bloodline with being short
Ive been thinking the same thing. Im average. 5'8 or 5'9 at 15. But, if i can help it, i'll date a 5'9 girl when im older so my son can have good odds at being 6'0. Is it wrong to do that? I dont think its the same as girls dating taller guys because taller women arent favored more than those of average height.
@@Pikachu-vj5jr You don't need to necessarily, but it increases the chances. Even better if you also get the IVF pregnancy. With this you can look at the genetics of the embryo beforehand, determine which embryo has the highest polygenic score for height and then impregnate the woman with that embryo. So you will get the tallest mogger.
"Tall, dark and handsome". Tall being Number one on the list of traits that women value over all others. Its extremely important to them and they won't lower that standard for anyone. But just be confident bro. 🙄
I got into puberty way too early for a boy starting at around 10 years old probably due to steroid in food. I lost a few years of growth as a kid and I ended up about 4cm shorter than expected(according to online calculators anyways) and being just 1cm taller than my mal-nutritious father who was starving growing up. Most of my classmates outgrew their dads by like 10cm. If you are to have a kid, keep the food free of those chemicals.
@@PhD__ You grow fast naturally when you are a kid just not as fast as in puberty. God knows if those steroids also end puberty prematurely (pun not intended). When the bones are closed no among of steroids can make you grow.
@@ThePresentation010 Dude I realized that when I was 14. I was the second tallest in class thx to hitting puberty early and I broke school record in sports and I always knew my days as the big guy were numbered.
First of all, there is NO food that contains steroids. Second of all, unless you accidentally consumed your dads steroid medication, there is no way that it would have any noticeable effect on your body. Its not because of steroids in food.
I'm 5' 8'' but I've accepted and am blackpilled. It's freeing to know that you can just enjoy your life and things you like to do and not worry about less trivial genetic rolls of the dice
5’8 isn’t that short it is slightly below average. I am also 5’8. I think this height is not ideal but not so bad that you will be unable to attract women.
At least tell me you work on other aspects of your life, like your social skills and physique and what not cuz there's so much more. At 5'8 you can still attract women bro
As someone standing at 5"5' it sucks a**. One of my friends is over 6ft and he's had almost every girl in my social circle ask him out. Along with that many girls outside the circle also have crushes on him. Meanwhile I constantly have jokes directed at me about my height and never feel like I'm treated seriously. I'm always seen as "just the short guy"...
I'm 5'5, my tall friends stay pulling baddies while I'm jus staying to myself. I usually attract women but they aren't baddies, more like washed up unattractive creatures.
Also, imagine falling under the heightism brutal reality when you’re from Southern Europe, where people are shorter on average than in the north or America, and being unfairly judged owing to your different ethnicity
Are you Italian by chance? If so yeah we’re not especially known for our height but luckily I’m 6’ (Italian-American here). Greeks and Iberians also tend not to be too tall either in my experience. That said, I think a lot of women do like South Euro dudes actually and I know that’s not what’s hurt me over the years. My thing is I’m kind of a nice guy who just wants a good woman and my standards are pretty picky too but oh well. I refuse to settle or compromise either because no self-respecting man should do that. I prefer to focus on goals and career and be with family/friends, travel, etc. The problem with American women is that too many are simply overweight/obese, rude and entitled, have bad baggage like kids out of wedlock, drug/alcohol addiction, or mental health issues, too many tattoos/piercings, or some combination of two or more of the above lol. But man don’t let the height thing get you down. Just focus on confidence, pursuing goals and dreams, and taking care of family and friends first. Anything else to me is secondary and much less important, even though admittedly it would be nice to have someday. But height is beyond anyone’s control, unlike weight lol.
I am from Spain and I agree with u on people being shorter than in Northern Europe or the States. That's also why I believe that height is not as important here as it is in those countries, specially since I'm a girl myself, I'm 6'0 or 1.83 mtrs though so I can't really speak for the average spanish girl
One dating tip: Be careful who you call ugly in middle school. All the ugly but kind and Lovely girls in my class, who were only reading books in the corner and only had 2 friends are now a 10/10 and have a 3/10 boyfriend. Those dudes loved them before their glow-up. While all the pupular girls are now single moms or alcoholics. Looks can change. Follow my advice and thank me later.
Popular girl does not necessarily mean they were good looking. The most successful boys when at school are those that have a brash confidence that ironically as they get older tends to hinder them so they either scale it back or become a person to avoid.
I am 5'6", 22 YO, bullied since early primary school. I feel like majority of women see me as different, inferior species in terms of dating. What is most brutal is this is affected by gennetics - sometihng I have no influence on. If I could be taller the hell I would do anything to be. I wanna cry now. Anyway this is what I have been doing every other week since ten years.
your 20s are the time to work hard and stack your green. Quit worrying about height, you can stand on the pile of money you saved and be as tall as you want later in life.
I’ll never forget years ago when my cousin told me that his girlfriend thought i was attractive but too short to date(hypothetically) and this was before I discovered true female nature ...the comment really hit me hard and stuck with me for a while
