Wow, stereotyping much?

Funny how fat shaming is unacceptable, but it's ok to immediately stereotype a person based off of genetic traits they can't even control. At least you can control body weights. I'm sure every country with shorter people has half the population with automatic insecurity issues just because of their genetics. Lol. [/quote]

DP, There is actually a syndrome associated with being a short man, it is called napolean complex. PP that loved quite a few short men and filtered others in the process, it is a thing.

Liken it to calling an obese person insecure. You’re not shaming their weight but acknowledging that with obese it’s comes a likelihood for other characteristics (like insecurity).[/quote]

No, Napoleon Complex is a horrendous stereotype.

A short man stands up for himself or has an opinion = Napoleon Complex.  A tall man is abrupt, rude, and loudly opinionated = CEO qualities, alpha male, ideal.  It's complete hypocrisy.  [/quote]

Not true, read the links that discuss more recent research. It is 100% a thing. Not all short people have it —- but some do. My anecdotal experience is one thing but there is plenty of emerging info out around it.

They’re also much more likely to be successful — overcompensating in height. Tall men have the world handed to them (politicians, CEOs, actors) because they project power. Another similar consideration, most CEOs have one od the 3 dark traits. To be powerful, Machiavellian traits are rewarded.

Social science databases can reveal more than a Google search   [/quote]
