On The Bagel Boss Guy And Height Discrimination

Do you have any evidence that this is a female-only problem? You’re using a lot of language from the incel community, one that is notoriously misogynistic and that judges women by their looks.

Well, this dude looks like he's below the 4ft mark so the height discrimination he suffers must be far beyond what you've seen.

Being that short in a Stacy world such as this must truly be hell.


He has a youtube channel dedicated to angry confrontations and rants he has with people.

The reason he's not getting any dates is because he's a very, very angry person who thinks that absolutely everyone is out to get him.

Would you want to date someone who turned every single imagined slight against them into a massive rant? Someone who tries to start a fight in a bagel shop because the cashier smiled at them in the "wrong way"?

Dude does not look below four feet. Although if he were that short I’d say he’d have every right to be upset.

I'm not at all judging them by their looks. Looks don't really come into play in terms of height. You're either tall or you end up having to wear platform shoes just so people don't start asking you to grant their wishes.

His anger is a product of his small size.

From “experience” I feel that some men look down (haha) on, or rather wouldn’t be willing to date tall women. Or at least women that are taller than they are.

It doesn't matter in a literal sense, it is just people being biased and as such- these are only averages. If someone is objectively more valuable and has the better resume, workplace persona, and business acumen, they can make tons more money than a tall person who is unskilled or doesn't appeal to people. And I definitely know that it is easier to become taller than to become shorter.

Of course height is in the realm of looks. What is it otherwise? Smell? :eyebrow:

Control being fat? Eh, some people can for sure, other people have a much harder time of it for various reasons.

Still, thankfully most women aren't going to not date someone because they're under 6 ft.

Well he got choke slammed so he was at the very least assaulted, probably because he was viewed as being weak due to his diminutive beight.


I've seen far more insults and disparaging of short people by you on this thread than I've actually seen out in the wild.... ever actually come to think of it.

I once saw a drunk person pretend to balance their drink on a short person's head. They didn't get the laughs they were expecting and knocked it off thankfully. That's about it.

It’s called the black pill. He’s miserable about his own shortcomings and makes up for it by trying to prove (by proxy) that people other than him can be wholly responsible for his own misery.

Yes.

Being height impaired does not affect the perception of women nearly to the degree that it affects men.

A short woman is viewed as being fun in a small package. A short man is just viewed as being some sort of dwarf.

Men rely on height for sexual appeal. Women don't. It's that simple.

That's bullshit though. That's simply not how short men are viewed by women. Do you really want to know what the very few women actually say stupid shit like "no one under 6ft" think about short men?

Almost certainly nothing. If they're not interested in shorter men, they probably don't devote an awful lot of time to thinking about them.

The answer is yes. Women are regularly judged on items like:
Make-up
Weight
Body form
Hair
Height

Why height? Because it turns out, some mens’ Napoleon complex scares them away from women who are taller than them.

Stop avoiding legitimate questions. This is a place for discussion, not incel rhetoric.

Dude, tall women are hot. Do you know how nice it is to not have to squat down to kiss someone?

Your perception of the problems that height impaired men face has been totally distorted by feminism.

Men are much more willing to accept a short woman than vice versa.
