Play it off and own it or take back your dignity by force.

Light hearted joke if you can, otherwise ignore it and place your attention elsewhere. It’s not nearly as big of a deal as people online make it out to be. Life is best lived when you focus on what you can solve and improve, rather than things outside of your control.

Just call him a troony israelite shill and tell him to post body
Play it off and own it is the only real option and take that as your cue to move on as quickly as possible image be damned - a tall guy really only lays the hammer if you are reaching above your paygrade so to speak. That's the only time I've ever seen a truly brutal and painful mogging. The rest is just warning shots at best if not mild teasing.
Talking to a hotter girl then you should be, trying to interject with a clique you are not a part of, perhaps trying out for a team you have no business trying out for, etc.
There is some truth to the 'chad is usually a friendly bro' while 'brad is a dick' meme that circulated a few years ago.
You generally wont get shit on unless its another guy who feels threatened by you to some degree, or is insecure in his own value, who needs to prop himself up. Either an ugly/skinny fat lanklet whose height is all he has going for him and he makes it his personality, or a turbo manlet who is just 2-3 inches taller than you but needs to flex
This is loser cope. Two different people have sex, you jerk off and cry yourself to sleep
why are manlets so hostile bros? This little incel simp just needs to grow 🙂
Do Americans really? Like, how do you manage to not get beat up permanently with an attitude like that? I come from Bavaria, guys like you don't exist for long here.
You europoors don't have lawsuits on every corner and are all effectively the same people (ethnic wise) - there is a sense that every can settle this amongst themselves without being a snitch.
In the west - you have no idea whose gonna be a b***h and literally potentially legally frick over your life over simply standing up for yourself
It's not worth it.
>a tall guy really only lays the hammer if you are reaching above your paygrade so to speak. That's the only time I've ever seen a truly brutal and painful mogging
This. Tallgays don't go out of there way to pick on little shorties like OP unless he's been acting up.
>haha yeah well at least im not a homosexual
next subject
Usually people care less if you own being short. Being hypersensitive makes people not like you.
>defend yourself and be "hypersensitize"
>let people mock you and be "beta"
The duality of the manlet. There isnt really a good way to counter the bullying either. If you are 5'6"+ just blast steroids and dwarfmax and get tattoos and weigh 250 pounds so lanklets won't talk shit about you and you can just passively assert your dominance without having to say anything. If you are sub 5'6" you probably had bad karma in the last life and should order an asian woman on the internet.
If lanklets are you're problem then you're just all kinds of fricked in the head. I'm 5'5" and I kinda took the middle road here. Natty jacked, athletic, big for my height. Not enough to be seen as compensating, but it's actually a lot and a conscious decision I make every single day for the purpose of compensating for my stature. Lanklets don't frick with me. Tall guys who are actually big for their height do.
Tell the 6 foot guy hes actually 5 9
>it is what it is
>play the cards i'm gives
>eh, frick it
im 5'5 and the only time i ever feel insecure about my height is literally on this forum. i know its not a favoreable or desirable height but i have a good close circle of friends, a loving family and im not a chad by any means but ive never gone more than a year of being single and am always usually in a relationship. i exercise i eat right and i have a good funny personality. people enjoy my company. so whatever cant win them all. also when were in public and a guy tries to frick with me at a bar or club or whatever it's always really cool to see my 6' friends get incredibly defensive to protect me without me asking.
Whats your weight?
145. i dont have stats for weightlifting because i just train calisthenics, but i can do handstand pushups, 10 pulls up clean slow and controlled, and 20 chin ups easy without breaking a sweat. i basically look like charlie moist kritical except i shave my head
Im sure you look good. But Bulk up to 180 190 200 210 plus pounds. homies wont mess with you
190??!! bro i bulked to 160 once when i was drinking alot and eating a shit ton of junk food and i looked like a literal meatball
based, lean wiry mode is honestly way better than dwarfmaxxing as a manlet
An adult manlet weighs at least 150lbs.
>im 5'5
when I was 5'7 I was constantly emasculated. Dont lie to me that height has no bearing on your social standing, because its not true.
>constantly emasculated
>blaming height
The problem is either your surrounding culture or you for hanging around with shitty people, buddy.
>The problem is either your surrounding culture or you for hanging around with shitty people, buddy.
I honestly dont think so, neither is true. They dont do it on purpose, but its enough for the girls around me to consider me worse
You’re insecure and probably over-analyze even the smallest perceived slight as being due to your height when it’s really due to your shitty, autistic personality
>talking to a girl and she breaks eye contact
“It’s because I’m short“
>guy cuts you in line
“It’s because I’m short”
>lady at McDonald’s doesn’t say “you’re welcome” after you thank her
“It’s because I’m short”
Insecure manlets and incels live in prisons of their own making
>t. gets insulted on a daily basis, laughs with the others at himself
Pathetic.
The fact that you viewed all of my examples as “insults” proves my point.
idk im 5'8" but i never considered myself short and no one has brought it up before
getting upset is the worst thing you can do but there's no winning move after this starts.
how you win is making sure it never begins. need to dwarfmaxx and be known as a guy that likes to fight so people do not try it.
>how you win is making sure it never begins.
thats my way of thinking, but instead of trying to intimidate somebody, Id rather become friendly with everybody. The intimidation tactic is really short fused, while, if you can play everything on a friendly tone, you get more flexibility. And yes, sometimes a guy will just push you regardless, not much you can do about it.
Hes a lean fit dwarf. He mentions he has a beard and shaved head.
Laugh it off in public but stick a finger up his butthole when no one's looking.
start swinging. No questions asked
>showing yourself in public as a manlet
This is where you went wrong
Daily reminder there is nothing to live for as a “male” below 5’11. You will never be respected, you will never have friends, you will never have a loving gf and you will never be a real man. Rope
5 7' here. im brown. my height is comfy.
>5 7' here. im brown. my height is comfy.
Im 6 3. Indian.
>hahahaha yea but if you were thiner/less bald/had more breasts/had more muscle/werent a giraffe/werent stupid in general you would be a solid 4/10. This comment specially hurts women, me just take it as a comeback joke. Men never had a problem with my height, i dont remember anybody who said something about it, maybe 1 or 2 histrionic women. Its childish stuff that only women think its funny
I'm 5'7 and my friends make fun of my height all the time and I laugh at their jokes. But they are close friends, I don't think I'd take such a joke lightly from some random dude, I'd probably get defensive or have a passive aggressive comeback (eg ). Do not let others shit on you and disrespect you.
You live in north europe or something?
Europe indeed, but not northern Europe. I just stick out with my friends who are all in the 6'+ range, they'd call me short since we were at school
Whip out your massive hog. That oughta shut him up for good.
All this height shit online is making zoomers fraud their height irl lol
You need to escalate to violence immediately. That does not mean you have to force the violence, but you need to make it known that you are willing to go there. It's up to them whether it does go past the tipping point, and if they are willing you must be willing to engage and win.
If you let ANY of it slip by without escalating to this level you will forever be the little guy getting bullied.
OHP him into a dumpster
Lmao didn’t the manlet neck himself after this? Good. Remember this manlets. You are inferior incel cuckolds
He acted like a woman and milked his fame. He had a stroke in 2021 or so and is partially paralyzed.
Nobody cares. I’m 5’6 and I don’t remember anyone making a joke about my height in my life. Actually I’m the one joking with it and usually is an ice breaker with the ladies (note: it works).
Must be som frat mentality but I only see this discussion here and in the brainwashing videos ppl post from ChinkTok.
Grow a pair, OP.
Lmfao why even bother lying? Do you think anyone believes you or are you just trying to delude yourself? Yeah youre just trying to delude yourself actually
Bro, I dunno if you ever go outside (actually I do lol), but irl people don't care.
>"do not speak to me like that again"
>"or what"
>then violence
Pretty good.
>At work today
>Work in same department as really hot girl
>Coworkers constantly coming up chatting her up, holding extensive conversations all the time
> Short guy doing it
>During conversation she mentions how hes a small little guy who can burn a lot of calories
>His smile falters for 0.1 seconds
frick man
>Haha yeah all my inches went elsewhere
t. 5'8 with 8 inch winky. Looks huge on my tiny dwarf body
How you doin' fellow tripod?
t. 5'9 with a similar sized dong
I'm a lanket but were I a foot shorter I'd get my wiener out a lot more to let people know I'm not short where it matters.
Just be charismatic. It is impossible to insult someone who is charismatic. I know we're all autists here but the advice still stands. We'll never be the dudes who are cool as frick all the time and everyone loves but we can still be cool enough to not get laughed out of places. It's good to work on your weaknesses, even knowing that they'll never be strengths and that the best you can do is make them not too weak. This is what people call being well rounded.
5'10 manlet here. I think this is a good question, and a tricky one to answer. Let's evaluate it further:
>What's the proper response?
In terms of social standing, there is no proper response. There is no way to come out of this scenario looking good, so my advice is don't even try, just escalate it immediately. You should do this with any insult you cannot produce an appropriate comeback for.
>acquaintance at a party
In this scenario, anyone who makes jokes that go beyond banter is looking to humiliate and dominate you. It is perfectly acceptable to tell them to shut the frick up. Nobody will think less of you for this, and nobody will appreciate you for it either, as whatever vibe existed before is now ruined. That's unfortunate, but unavoidable. Be clear in your tone and eye contact that you are imminently willing to escalate this to violence. If you aren't in a public place or at a work-related event, feel free to skip this step and progress to physical contact, but I'd advise you not to heem them in the first instance unless you are fine with ending up in court. Immediate heeming also removes the final opportunity for the other party to b***h out, which after being pushed to the ground over petty banter, most people will. Assuming you told them to shut the frick up, 95% of the time they will apologize, the other 5% of the time they will respond with "or what", in which case your only option is to fight.
Use a different strategy to navigate these comments in more professional environments. My advice is still to immediately escalate it, especially if this is done in front of peers. Tell them directly: "do not speak to me like that again". This is actually a winning play, because they can't engage in further insults without looking unprofessional. You get the last dig in. Their only responses are to throw professionalism out of the window to belittle you further, to apologize, or to deny they meant to insult you; all of these are losing plays.
5’ 10” is not a manlet. Get off the Internet
I’m 300lbs now I would probably just eat them
This would never happen because a 5'8 man would never get invited to a party. Crisis averted.
lol who wants to go to a party you are invited to
Show up
Drink their booze
Harass women
Steal things
Leave
It sounds a bit awkward in English, but I jokingly imply that all the power went to the roots, instead of the trunk (like a tree), implying that I am very well endowed (I'm 170cm/5'7? with a 20cm pingus).
>5'11 vs 6'0
What kind of shit parties do you go to? In Europe that would be grounds for a fight and the acquaintance would be ostracized for killing the vibe, no matter who won.
I feel bad for manlets who this happens to but I have only had the opposite experience as a tall guy. I wouldn’t dare make fun of another man for something he cannot control, which is what makes this doubly annoying for me. Any time I’m socializing there’s always been some turbo manlet who I guess out of insecurity preemptively tries to shit on me. The more I ignore and don’t react while also not pulling out what they probably expect the angrier they get. It’s like me NOT making fun of their height makes them even more upset. And it’s usually shit about my appearance, often shit that makes no sense anyways which other people call them out on my behalf. But it’s annoying.
Whether they’ve had taller guys make fun of them in the past or they’re just self loathing I really don’t care. If I’m not giving you shit, and in fact I’m just enjoying myself not bothering anyone why would you bother me? It’s throwing stones in a glass house. I’ve seen one such manlet get picked up and carried like a baby after he did this to a friend of mine and the dude lost his shit literally cried and threw a fit while everyone watched and then he left after sulking for a bit. It’s that easy and yet the more I choose not to retaliate the harder they go. It’s like they want the confrontation, or maybe they’re delusional about my non reactions and think they’re intimidating me so it makes them feel big. Either way it’s annoying and I could see how it would be annoying for a short guy who doesn’t get all pissy pants to deal with constant short jokes.
I don't get mocked for being short but I get ignored by women and have been rejected by women for height (they said it explicitly). People aren't hostile to me but women aren't attracted sexually
Lmao people will start abandoning you since nobody wants to be associated with an Incel. You’ll be a friendless sexless manlet much like 95% of them kek
>just go travel to some foreign country and import a SEAmonkey wife that wants a green card bro
nope. frick this cope. i WILL marry a beautiful white woman.
I don't go to parties anymore.
>ITT everyone not declaring being short is 1,9m at least
Do I need to add you all have 25cm penises?
response for what? why would i respond to a joke? people pick on you because its an easy bait and gets under your skin. they think its funny to make a joke at your expense because you are insecure.
just laugh at it and continue with whatever was going on without fixating on the height. if you fixate and retaliate its glaringly obvious that you were insulted. what if someone makes a joke about you being rich, smart and having big muscles? damn dude im so offended guess its time to sperg about the inherited money!
>ignore it
>wow you’re a pussy manlet
>confront them
>woah angry little man has napoleon complex
>make a joke back
>huh must’ve struck a nerve with that short joke
Basically just give up if you’re a manlet. Yeah sure like 30 years ago you could’ve just compensated with money and lifting but nobody gives a frick now and everyone knows manlets are inferior sexless losers anyways
That's why you just skip the talking and poison their water supply. (If you fight normally you'll go to prison)
"It's not nice to make fun of people for things they can't control, that's why we don't make fun of you for being moronic".
Get a laugh out of your peers and move the conversation on, and if that person keeps at it, you're either going to have to escalate or leave (or know the venue security and have them removed).
I’m 5’9 and I’ve never had anyone call me short in me entire life, probably because it’s average height. What would they even say: “oh wow bro, it’s so silly how you’re just as tall as most other people”
Where do you live? India? I know 5’9 guys and they get the piss ripped out of them for their height daily. I’m 5’6 and it’s literally the first thing someone says to me “oh you’re short”. Social media has destroyed any hope manlets could have at a happy fulfilling life
Youre short for white kek. Larp as miz race white latino or asian they wont think your short
It’s very obvious I am pure white, nobody would believe I am mixed race or Asian
>the discord troony desperately trying to bait by replying to everyone with the /LULZ/ shit
remember, it could always be worse
you could be this guy LOL
>the discord tra- AAAAACCCKKKK
