I'm 5'8", which is within the margin of error for "average height," but you would be amazed how many people categorize that as "short."
I've never felt "short" before. I've never felt as though I didn't fit in or I was less capable because of my height.
The only real negative bias I've ever seen are from women who won't date below the 5'10" line. THAT is a real thing, and it's pretty common, from my experience. The sad thing is that I have a preference for taller women, and they just won't go for a shorter guy (unless I start flashing my OT baller money, which of course, I try to keep under wraps until date #3). The thing that kills me are women 5'5" and under who won't date someone 5'8" because they are too short. WTF?
Anyhow, never saw a negative stereotype from men regarding my height. All they care about is whether can I do what they do. If so, who gives a frick?
