Confidence doesn't mean showing off. Confidence means you're comfortable with yourself. You're relaxed and have nothing to prove to anyone. You enjoy life. You don't even think about your stature. You missed a video someone posted a few weeks ago about a short guy in a country Western bar who caught and held the interest of two taller women, because he was dancing some nice moves and had a smile on his face, it was clear he was enjoying himself.
Where did you hear that stuff, in a bar? Ignore it all! Short guys can clean up with the women just by being interesting and fun. They can, and they do, I've seen it many times. You're fixating on the negative (you've even made a list), and missing all the positive images.

I don't care about confidence in shorter men. I don't care how their love life plays out either. They prove themselves physically to me. All the women in the world could hate the short guy. I don't value their opinions much. He's done something to prove himself and show me his worth. It's not dancing or how he combs his hair stuff. How far will he go. Can he assume risks and take chances? Has he perfected something "da club" could care less about? Would he die trying to save someone he loved? If the answer is yes...you're my type of GUY period. Short guys included.

I saw one of the most weirdest thing today on the streets of Manhattan. I saw so many women dating guys equal or lesser to their height. I find it mind boggling, these short guys are doing something right to catch women equal height or taller. Women were not wearing high heels but flats and still overshadowed their dates by a couple of inches, I guess women are settling for short guys compared to huge ego Alpha male tall guys like myself. I'm not sure what it is maybe women reject and rebelling looking up towards a guy because of power and authority compared to looking down on a guy because women have the power, Feminism changed a lot of dynamics in the dating world. I came across a woman from Texas the other day, she was hot, she told me your tallest guy I have seen all day, I laughed because I'm over six feet, I'm sure there are taller men then me in this city, but then again most men in this city are short any way. I have a body of an NFL athlete and I do gain a lot of attention from Southern women when I run into them on the streets of NYC or visiting the south . But this is here in NYC, but I'm not sure about other regions relative on height and dating. Hey guys if your short and you live in a sunbelt, backwater, biblebelt parts of America, move to NYC there is an abundance of women here who will date, screw, blow and have your baby even if your short. I know a lot of short guy below the average height who are in committed relationships, married, players and so forth, while opposite for men taller here to some extent.

Or maybe, just maybe, they LIKED these guys and couldn't care less about their height? It has nothing to do with power and authority and everything to do with attraction. I like shorter guys...but that could be because most guys I come in contact with are shorter than me

Being short isn't a handicap.
only reason why being short would be a handicup is if those men that allow it to be.

I agree, I also believe it all boils down to personality and chemistry, if the short guy has alot in common and shared interest with a woman taller than her its all good if you ask me. Sometimes short guys might be more adorable for women to be with. The problem being tall is dancing at night clubs. I danced with a girl that was 5 feet 2 and I hurt my knees to the point I almost blew them out. A year ago I went to a speed dating event just to check it out, it was 6 feet and up, a city like New YOrk men dont come at my height unless if your from somewhere else and there are women who desire a tall man to be with. Funny thing is I spoke to one woman and she told me all the guys except for you are weird, I felt sorry for her especially for the fact taht she was picky looking for a tall guy but nodded them for being too weird. I told her you should go back to dating crazy napoleonic complexed short men. SMH.
I'll chime in here as the short guy who makes everyone laugh, likes to make women laugh, smile, have fun and engage in good conversation. Many times over and over I've heard women whisper nasty stuff thinking that I didn't hear them but I did. For example:
"that guy is a complete waste of a man, it's so wrong that he's so short with such a good looking face"
"I hate short guys who try to have nice bodies, they shouldn't even bother working out when they're that short"
"that guy is not a man, he's a boy and doesn't deserve to be called a man"
"being that short, he'd be better off gay"
"short guys are ugly, no amount of good looks will make him attractive"
"I hate it when short guys hit on me, these losers think that just because I'm a short woman that I like short men? NOT"
"why do these short guys even bother with a tall girl like me, I wish they would just drop of the face of the earth and die"
"short men are genetic mistakes"
Yep!!! No lies folks, I've heard all this stuff first hand.
Tall women have been a little bit more blunt with their rejections and sometimes that's better than getting a cold shoulder, a snotty look or being taken advantage of for drinks from a short chick. Tall women have told me straight up that I'm way too short, but good looking. The worst thing a tall woman said to me was "you must think I date shorties? sorry, but I am a woman and there's no way that we could work."
Oh BTW, the confidence issue is like walking along a knife edge for short guys. Women don't measure it equally in men. Why? Simple asnwer. A short guy with a shred of confidence is 9 times out of 10 going to be unfairly stamped with short man syndrome. A short guy with no confidence is the world's biggest wuss. A tall guy with confidence is a hearthrob, stallion, stud, whatever you want to call it. A tall guy with no confidence is sweet, innocent, shy, gets a free pass and just needs a little help.
FYI, short women are just as cruel and mean spirited as the tall one who looks down and laughs at the short guy who tries. So yes, the world isn't very kind to short guys but I'd say that this has more to do with America and western culture. AND, more short guys I know are finding solace in foreign women who actually respect them and treat them as men. I guess this partly explains the increasing number of men getting together with women outside of the US, the divorce rate in North America still climbing and the number of marriages in the US diminishing.
I'm a firm believer in confidence alright. All the confidence in the world doesn't mean squat if you never apply it. Of course you should/would have confidence. When the music stops, don't be the last man standing without a chair. Going around quiet holding your confidence like a sword is not only foolish, it's a joke. Let someone yank off all the wires on the brand new F-150. The guy in the back who's a "smooth operator" won't have a clue. Gimme the guy who won a bet last weekend building an engine while timed in under 30 minutes. He backs it up. It's obvious to me none of you have been "broke" or "broken down" before. You get no free passes here. You put out, or get the ***k out! I always chose to put out. My buddy recently trained with Larry Vickers. Larry goes right down the line and reminds everyone "YOU SUCK"! You had better prove him wrong. When he got to my buddy, he said..."that's a little better than the others". "You still SUCK, just not as bad"! Why thank you Larry! lol
