I don't think it's so bad being a short female. But I'd think it would be tougher being a short male.
I agree and it should not be that way either. My father was very short and my mom taught me to measure a man by the “neck up.” ha ha. Meanwhile, as a petite gal, I had the choice of guys since they were all “tall enough” for me.
The toughest thing are the ladies who insist on dating tall people.
People ask me what I look for in a gal, and I say, well I’m looking for someone with large breasts, tan and gorgeous.
They invariably get all snotty, and then I ask if they’d prefer ‘tall, dark and handsome’ ;)
