[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can control fatness, you can’t control height. Heightism is real and accepted discrimination. Go lookup the heights of nearly every single CEO and politician, hardly any are below 5’7”-5’8”. Numerous studies have shown that height significantly impacts your lifetime earnings and promotions, even after adjusting for education and experience. It’s basically discrimination against men for a genetic trait. Literally it is no different than discrimination against a person because of their race. It impacts men far more than women. Height isn’t anywhere near as import for women as it is for men. [/quote] Ok you cannot control how pretty you are, or how big your boobs are. No one likes a whiny person. You can control that. [/quote] +1. Being whiny and insecure is even less attractive e than being short.[/quote] Whiny? Imagine telling all those black people and women who complain about making less than a white man with the same qualifications that they’re being ‘whiny’. Yet if a shorter man raises the same complaint, now they’re whiny? And if they were to stand up for themselves, then you’d prob claim napoleon complex too. You have much control over your personal appearance from the way you dress to makeup, and hairstyle. You can’t control height no matter what, just like your race. I bet all those minorities who point out racism are just being whiny, right? [/quote] You must be a fragile white guy. Imagine comparing your height to racism.[/quote] Actually, it makes sense. Both are genetic traits. There is systemic discrimination against race as well as height. Sure, racism might be worse, but it is still a very fair comparison. The fact that a shorter person points out how they're discriminated against and it is written off a 'whiny' just goes to show how ingrained discrimination against shorter people is. It'd absolutely be the same as telling a black person they're being 'whiny' if they described discrimination at work due to their race. [/quote]
