Whether or not I'm in the minority doesn't really matter. When it comes down to relationships - you are looking for the person you are compatible with. You aren't going to be compatible with everyone - nobody is. Why spend so much time focusing on looking for people that you aren't going to be compatible with? Like I said - the short guys that I had relationships with are married now. Their wives are attractive and they've always done well with women.
Because it really shows many women in poor light that they have such venom for guys just because there not attracted to them..

As far as your other point to find the person youre comaptible with which is hard enough but you have a better chance the more opportunities you get so for short guys less chances means less percentage of finding somebody because of the small amount of women who would actually date short men

Add in just because theyres a small percentage of women willing to date short men doesnt mena shell want to date me just because im short it just means i passed that one part but not everything else with attraction so that makes the pool even smaller..

This!! Why do people in general go weeding out information on the internet that is negative and then try to paint a broad brush and say everyone is that way? For every woman that doesn't like a physical quality that I have may like a phyiscal quality that you have. There are women that like short men, they are out there and just because a woman doesn't like you, it could be for another reason. I have a friend who is single and he only prefers to date outside of his race. And anytime a woman rejects it is because he is black, that is his excuse for everything, it's so ridiculous. He doesn't realize by saying this, it just keeps him from working on the things that REALLY makes him unattractive to women. Stop focusing on the people that don't like short men. it will only make you more negative and depressed

Also. I am saying that it is OK for women not to like me. For looks. You didn't catch that. So long as I get rejected early, and that's how I play these days.

It's also OK for OP to whine a little. I think it's completely understandable given the circumstances. I also think the fact that he does it here means he doesn't do it in real life. And that's another way these forums are helpful.
So...you had a chance with women, but decided to end it. If you can't look past being 'not compatible' then why do you expect women to look past not being attracted to you? And yes, you did reject her.

I'm being mostly facetious here, but still... most dudes aren't into me looks-wise, but that's their issue not mine. I get told on this forum that, as a woman, all I have to do is step outside and I'll be constantly inundated with male attention. That obviously doesn't happen.

You're obsessed with looks though, which is odd considering looks aren't nearly as important to women as they are for men. I have a feeling you've had women attracted to you, but completely dismissed and ignored them because they weren't hot enough for you. Happens all the time, many guys are completely oblivious to it because 'not hot' women basically don't exist to them.

Exactly. I think I'm going to start googling topics such as how mixed raced people are disgusting, men who hate women with cellulite, men who hate actresses, etc.

So? Like I said - why spend you time trying to find articles and statistics that obviously are just making you more and more bitter? There are women who are attracted to short guys but very few who are attracted to bitter men who spend their time trying to make themselves more upset.

I just find it comical that men are looked at as shallow pigs when women are probably moreso..Women want to be loved for "who they are" yet alot arent willing to give men the sam chance..

I find it comical that you cling to your beliefs no matter how many people disagree with you and you only take into consideration posts and articles that support your beliefs. Like I said, it isn't the forum that is the problem. Nobody can help those who don't want to be helped. I know this first hand.
