I'm a slightly overweight 6'1 woman who gets publicly mocked often, and usually by complete strangers. So yeah, I know what it feels like. Anyone who is t close to average is going to be mocked at one point or another and I've spent far too much time trying to defend my decisions on this thread.
One of my best friends is a 5'5 100 lb man and he gets more tail than any other guy I've ever met. Some short guys will always be popular, as will some tall girls. One of my tall girlfriends gets hit on all the time, while I just get mocked for being 'huge'. I have a feeling I'm going to be single for a while (if not ever) because of my body type and I'm perfectly ok with it. Maybe the short guys should come to terms with it as well.
well you have control over your weight so im not sure what your point is
But I am confident. My reasoning for surgery is less about women than it is the discrimination thing (more dating options would be a perk). See it all the time in business. Women have their weight loss surgery and boob jobs. Short men had to just suck it up until now. I don't believe I have Napoleon Complex, but whenever I excel in school or business I'm always being told I'm overcompensating. Gets old pretty quick (and very annoying).
when do you plan on getting the surgery? and where? (as in what country)
When it comes to relationship or mariage i think the most important thing between two persons is LOVE and being convinced that the other person is the right one for you then, nothing can stand between you. You love the person for who he is and not for what he has.

It's not a total disqualifier, but in order for dating to occur to even get to the level when I'd get to know him as a person, I'd have to be physically attracted to him first; and I'm just not very attracted to men who are shorter than I am. So, my honest answer is no.
dont do apples and oranges a better analogy would be guys refusing to date ugly chicks its something you they cant really change and is simply a preference but read my post on previous page theres more to dread for the short man than dating
I've found that it's because generally, his troubles come from the "poor me syndrome". It shows in the attitude.
ALL of my husbands roommates in college were shorter than him but a few inches (he's 5'10...his best friend was 5'4 and the other guy was 5'5). They are all successful because they had confidence in themselves, their knowledge and their abilities. They didn't play the "poor me, I'm short, everyone overlooks me" card.
I'll tell you what too...I'll play your weight game from your previous post. I was more than 40lbs overweight and it never stopped me from doing what I wanted and having success as well.
People that let those things get in their way are their own worst enemy.

Even when I was thin I was mocked. I'm a very tall woman and even when I was 120 lbs I was still called 'Godzilla' and my nickname at work was Jolly Green Giant and if i had a dollar for every time someone would walk by and say 'wow, youre huge!!' I'd be rich. I had men tell me I was far too tall to date, and I've also had women offer their sympathies over the fact that I'd never find a man and get married.
So that was my point. I will never be shorter. I will never be average. Losing weight isn't going to solve my problems.

Find a taller man, as simple as that. Taller women have it way way way easier than less than average height men.
