Actually I think manlet is appropriate for a man who is only 5' 10". Who would know better being that height myself? I image that I was bred that way like a dachshund(cleverly sticking with the German theme). I am a slave by breed, squeezed out on this world like a dollop on an assembly line to slave in sunless rat holes. Any man under 6` should be denied a marriage licence on grounds that are self evident, and fined for their proposterous and friviolous use of our civil services.

It just makes ya hot and heavy and ready for action, doesn't it?!

If he has no respect for himself, how can he possibly expect respect from others?!

I'm also quite curious what the entry qualifications are for "alpha" and " beta".

How do you tell the difference ?

Could an Alpha be a manlet, if he's short, but "hard as nails" ?

Take Napoleon, for example, two foot tall, but a bit of a fighter, I wouldn't steal his candy.

Makes me glad I'm gay. I leave the ignorant clamlets for the straight guys who are stuck dealing with their silly drama and emotional neediness. Enjoy, guys.

I think if you are 5'4" you are short. If you are 5'7"+ you are just not tall. Want to meet women? Stop overthinking and get out of the house.

Yeah, 5'10 is average height for a man so anything above it is above average. Like I said, I've always heard manlets described as men under 5'8, so 5'7 and under.

OP how tall are you anyways?

Calling ones self a manlet sounds gay to me. No wonder you can't get a date with a woman.
Well hello there, manlet.

Sounds like you're trying to compensate a bit too much. Lighten up. It's fine to be gay or a manlet or a clamlet or whatever it is you happen to be. It's all good.
