Day 2 of reminding the fediverse there are women who prefer shorter guys (source: am one of them). If y’all don’t want them I’ll take them. I’ll take them all.
I imagine there are even women out there who care more about a man’s personality than their height…
Being short isn’t your fault, being a dull cunt is.
Having partners the same height and relative size as you is great as you get to effectively double your wardrobes.
Granted this works best when you both have similar tastes in fashion though.
Dating someone of equal height: you can easily kiss on the lips without anyone awkwardly bending to reach
Dating someone shorter: every hug gets a bonus motor-boating
Dating someone shorter: every hug gets a bonus motor-boating
brilliant
I can assure you that there are EVEN MORE women out there care about personality AND height…
Does anyone find bitterness and resentment attractive though? Maybe work on that first before you worry about how tall you are.
Good thing I’m tall.
I’m married to a man the same height as me. Absolutely zero regrets. He’s kind and funny, and my favorite person.
The only thing I’m slightly jealous of is that I might not be able to wear my husband’s ribcage as armor should I outlive him the way that women with taller husband’s can. But that’s life! I love my husband more than I desire widow armor.
I have no idea where your lore is from, but I like it! As a taller and bigger guy, I see no better way to go out than protecting my love my partner from hordes of barbarians. Let my ribs be impenetrable armor and my femur be an armor splitting bludgeon for her berserker rage. Tales will be told and songs will be sung, and …… crap, she’s now my ex. Forget it, I’ll fertilize a tree when the time comes
Thanks! As far as I know I made it up, but it wouldn’t surprise if the concept has appeared elsewhere.
The height preference thing always kinda reminded me of orcs or amazons and I figured those archetypal societies would do something like that… plus I saw an opportunity to make a joke. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Also I really enjoyed the picture you painted with it! That was a fun read. I hope you find that badass lady to wear your ribcage in battle one day!
I might not be able to wear my husband’s ribcage as armor
seems like it would smell…
How do you think they articulate skeletons in museums or medical displays? They clean them. First with bugs, then with chemicals like peroxide.
Height and attractiveness have nothing to do with each other for me, but I do wish someone would find a way to make my wife taller so I wouldn’t have to keep getting things off of the top shelves in the cabinets for her.

Now I’m interested why and how are you measuring tenths of millimeters
Micrometer
Accurately measure to within 0.001 in. or 0.03mm Measures up to 6 in.

Yeah but it would smoosh into such a limp dick, no way to get an accurate grip.
So IDK exactly what you were talking about BUT I work with micrometers everyday at work and you actually grip em with your pinky or sometimes pinkey and ring finger, and hold it against your palm so you can use your thumb and index finger to rotate the top!
Even people with big hands can use them pretty effectively :D
This concludes the unasked for, unnecessary information. TY for listening
The discussion was about measuring a limp dick not using the limp dick to operate the micrometer.
Now I’m interested what the comment was before deletion.
A lame dick size joke
Kinda obvious in hindsight =/
He only waited till he got a green belt.
all it takes
Think it’s complimentary with the long legs
Wait, I got a blue belt from the store, do the green ones give you martial arts skills!?
No joke, I wish I could gift some height to another to be shorter.
On your knees then
How much have you got spare?
Not for me, though, just interested. I’m 6’2" and it’s about perfect I think, probably wouldn’t swap it for any other height. I’m tall enough to reach the top shelves of pretty much everything, hit the cancel button on our smoke alarm, see over people at gigs and things, but not so tall that I have problems with fitting into things too often.
I think both of us would be cool with it if I gave height to my buddy until we were the same. I think that puts both of us exactly at average.
Must change your DNA…
The leg lengthening we can do these days doesn’t need or cause a DNA change. Look it up. It’s simultaneously fascinating and horrifying.
I understand, why not just use stilts or shoes with large soles? You would be proportionally off, wouldn’t it be weird to be 6 foot tall and have short arms?
What part of be taller is the goal?
Most often it’s done because of a developmental problem where one leg segment has come out slightly shorter than its counterpart on the other leg, affecting gait and posture. Only one or two bones need to be lengthened if the patient is lucky. Shortening the other leg is probably also an option, but I figure people would want to do something to the affected leg, rather than muck about with the “healthy” one.
There is at least one instance that I recall where someone born with a form of dwarfism had all four limbs - all twelve bones - extended to “normal” length. As to whether it was strictly ethical to do that is an entirely different matter, considering the patient was a child.
I mean, it’s definitely the best time of life to have the lengthening done what with bones being greener and still growing anyway, but the patient wasn’t exactly in the position to be making an informed decision about whether they wanted to go through it.
Shortening the longer leg is much less invasive and probably preferred, but the discrepancy has to be caught very early. You need years of measurements to predict exactly how long each leg will be and when. If you have those, there’s a pretty small window when the long leg is exactly the right length to tell it to stop growing.
What does that have to do with a woman wanting a taller man?
Im worse than short. Im a bit over average but have short legs and a long torso 💀
The otter look. It’s a good look. Get fit, dress right.
I am fit. I have very broad shoulders from playing water polo and i started swimming at 4 so i look like a dorrito with two short legs.
Meh, you’re just self-conscious.
Kinda yes but at the same time when i still lived in hungary where a lot of people play and know about waterpolo people recognised i play it by my body shape.
Are you ET?
💀
Not shown: Big Bird’s bones breaking, because that’s how leg extension surgery works.
Cartoon violence inflicted on a rude person displayed in a comic strip has somehow started a war about “incels” and “toxic masculinity”; meanwhile, I’ve never watched Sesame Street and I was over here thinking Big Bird was a girl.
Follow That Bird is the second-best Muppet movie (after The Muppet Movie) and I will fight you if you say otherwise.
Otherwise.
You are dead.
Kek, I like kick woman too
Lengthening your legs, which will screw you up in a number of ways, is the most cucked thing you can do. Imagine letting the opinions of people online guide your behavior in such a drastic way.
Call that the cunt punt.
Incels out in force today yikes
Who is up voting this incel shit?
Lol what it’s someone being rude and getting kicked for it
Fr
Beating women up cause they don’t find you attractive is funny now?
God damn what a dumb thing to say.
Animals getting tragically crushed to death isn’t funny, but anvils falling on coyote heads in cartoons is.
Not to you, though. You’d find a way to make it a problem. Fuck’s sake.
Okay fat-ass (That’s not an insult, I simply don’t find you attractive.)
This insult now gives me the right to kick you in the face, potentially killing you, and that will be funny.
It gives you the right to imagine a humorous situation where you did, as an outlet for your disgust at how rude it was.
No, it was funny before too.
edit: I thought the ridiculousness of my comment was quite obvious considering the ridiculousness of the comment I was replying to but oh well…
violence against women is never okay
Humiliating someone because of their appearance is also not ok.
But getting violent because someone said something mean to you… is?
I don’t get the point you’re trying to make here.
and yet you probably kicked your own mother in her womb… i cant believe you
I think a lot of babies do that.
my god…what an awful world we live in
