Cartoon violence inflicted on a rude person displayed in a comic strip has somehow started a war about "incels" and "toxic masculinity"; meanwhile, I've never watched Sesame Street and I was over here thinking Big Bird was a girl.

Day 2 of reminding the fediverse there are women who prefer shorter guys (source: am one of them). If y'all don't want them I'll take them. I'll take them all.
I imagine there are even women out there who care more about a man's personality than their height...
Being short isn't your fault, being a dull cunt is.
Having partners the same height and relative size as you is great as you get to effectively double your wardrobes.
Granted this works best when you both have similar tastes in fashion though.
Dating someone of equal height: you can easily kiss on the lips without anyone awkwardly bending to reach
Dating someone shorter: every hug gets a bonus motor-boating

I'm married to a man the same height as me. Absolutely zero regrets. He's kind and funny, and my favorite person.
The only thing I'm slightly jealous of is that I might not be able to wear my husband's ribcage as armor should I outlive him the way that women with taller husband's can. But that's life! I love my husband more than I desire widow armor.
I might not be able to wear my husband’s ribcage as armor
seems like it would smell...
How do you think they articulate skeletons in museums or medical displays? They clean them. First with bugs, then with chemicals like peroxide.
I have no idea where your lore is from, but I like it! As a taller and bigger guy, I see no better way to go out than protecting my love my partner from hordes of barbarians. Let my ribs be impenetrable armor and my femur be an armor splitting bludgeon for her berserker rage. Tales will be told and songs will be sung, and ….. crap, she’s now my ex. Forget it, I’ll fertilize a tree when the time comes
Thanks! As far as I know I made it up, but it wouldn't surprise if the concept has appeared elsewhere.
The height preference thing always kinda reminded me of orcs or amazons and I figured those archetypal societies would do something like that... plus I saw an opportunity to make a joke. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Also I really enjoyed the picture you painted with it! That was a fun read. I hope you find that badass lady to wear your ribcage in battle one day!
Height and attractiveness have nothing to do with each other for me, but I do wish someone would find a way to make my wife taller so I wouldn't have to keep getting things off of the top shelves in the cabinets for her.

He only waited till he got a green belt.
Wait, I got a blue belt from the store, do the green ones give you martial arts skills!?
all it takes
Think it's complimentary with the long legs
Not shown: Big Bird's bones breaking, because that's how leg extension surgery works.
No joke, I wish I could gift some height to another to be shorter.
On your knees then

Lengthening your legs, which will screw you up in a number of ways, is the most cucked thing you can do. Imagine letting the opinions of people online guide your behavior in such a drastic way.
Must change your DNA...
The leg lengthening we can do these days doesn't need or cause a DNA change. Look it up. It's simultaneously fascinating and horrifying.

Follow That Bird is the second-best Muppet movie (after The Muppet Movie) and I will fight you if you say otherwise.
Otherwise.
You are dead.
Im worse than short. Im a bit over average but have short legs and a long torso 💀
The otter look. It's a good look. Get fit, dress right.
I am fit. I have very broad shoulders from playing water polo and i started swimming at 4 so i look like a dorrito with two short legs.
