Men under 5'7" shouldn't have human rights

Since this woman is so popular, everyone knows this. Therefore, you don't exist.

What she said is wrong, but you’re also wrong for lifting it out of context and using it to somehow argue with women in DC who talk about body positivity. It’s beyond absurd.

Eh, I find the whole thing confusing.

She said they "don't" have human rights ("jinken"), which on the surface sounds like an observation. As such, saying they should undergo bone lengthening (as a way of obtaining human rights) could be a weird (sardonic?) comment on her observation, and her stated preference for taller men could also be a comment on her observation. Meanwhile, it is pointed out that in the gaming word the Japanese term translated as "human rights" is said to have a different meaning, which I did find: "However, in gaming terms, jinken refers to an item or character that players need to have in an online game." So I have no idea whether she means she prefers (virtually) taller men in games, or is talking about real life. NO clue what body shaming involves when it comes to avatars.

All in all, I'm not interested in trying to extend a social meaning to whatever happened here. I clicked on the thread because I was curious what the topic title was about.

She is from Japan where the average height for a man is 5'7", meaning a huge portion of Japanese men, according to her, do not deserve human rights simply because of their height. The hypocrisy here is truly astounding. We have so many efforts for body positivity for women where being overweight is celebrated. Yet where is the same kind of thing for men? You have nasty toxic women out there saying men under some certain level of height don't even deserve to live or deserve human rights. You can at least control your weight by not stuffing your face. How exactly can you change your DNA to make yourself taller? If we are going to push body positive culture, then it should go for everyone.

This is by far one of the stupidest posts I have read here in quite some time. It takes real effort to fail on so many logical levels. Congratulations, OP.

She said don't. Huge difference. For many in the South, "Man" unless fair-skinned didn't have human rights. "Man" (homo sapiens) unless bearing a penis and a y-chromosome didn't have human rights.

Also, "overweight" can be choice in certain situations and under 5'7" can not be a choice in most situations.
