height issue

I've never given much thought to being pretty much a short guy. It never seemed to bother me growing up that much. I never wanted to play football. I got all the baseball I wanted. I could play hockey. I could play soccer. I did well enough in school.
I was pushed around quite a bit, but I seemed to be able to make friends with huge people who would have my back.
I can remember more than 5 times being shoved by taller guys, but I have never swung a punch at anyone (aside from my Daren). I guess that makes me a wimp? I always thought it made me level headed....but maybe that comes with being a person of inferior strength. I don't know.

Now im all grown up.......although still very childlike, and not very tall. But now I've just recently really started to notice the effects of not being very tall. Especially how it makes me feel on an interview or in the work place, or when i look at my bank statements (ha). I just have never taken into account how looking up at someone and trying to persuade them or tell them something important effects me, and my confidence, not to mention the volume and clarity of my voice. Not that i was ever particularly confident in the first place....I mean, Im a pretty fucking weird guy. A lot of what I say just doesn't fit into regular conversations with people....People look at me funny.....A lot.....I used to think people just didn't get it, but I'm coming to realize, I'm just way off the mark in a lot more ways than one.

When I'm sitting the effect is much less I think.
I would like to pretend to have used the scientific method and proved something here....but i dont feel like lying tonight.


I hate to take anything away from Blacks, Gays, Women, Fatties...etc., but this guy does.
The whole article just makes me feel like shit, it's pretty awesome. Words are cool.
Although the article states there are no redeeming values to being short, I found solace in the fact that Dustin Hoffman is 5'6".....He is a wonderful actor.

He played Hook for Godsakes.....


The article touches on some interesting dynamics, that ring so true. For instance...if a man short or tall doesn't take a stand or act in a given situation he is a wimp, however if a short man does take a stand there is an adverse reaction from people, and suddenly he has a a Napoleon complex.....or "Little Man Syndrome" as I've had thrown in my direction a handful of times.
Also the financial earnings of tall vs. short people, seems to be true as far as my experience goes, as well as my parents and family.

I guess we all have to deal with some shitty thing(s) about our appearance and the negative effects they have on our psyche and personalities.....


Just go ahead and call me and angry little white man.....so i can get mad about it.


can't wait to have that penis enlargement surgery....that might help.
