Calling our fellow manlets

How much your manletism legitimately bother you?

I never thought about my height (5'9") growing up. Felt completely normal and average.

Then I find this website and oh boy, height stats quoted everywhere.

I realize this can get to some people. How tall are you? How do you view being a manlet?

Do you shrug your shoulders and move on? Does it bother you? Only care if you happen to be the shortest guy in the room?

Let's chat misc.
I'm back, bitches!

literally actually always kinda enjoyed being the shortest guy in the room/social group cuz it always seemed special and a way to stand out, think about it in a given social group if one guy is way taller than anyone and another guy is s way shorter those r the two u think of standing out for height reasons, the ones in the middle don’t stand out. being the short guy was always kinda my schtick in groups and tbh used to sometimes get kinda bummed if a shorter guy than me was present

5'10 was literally the shortest guy in every class until 11th grade. After a lifetime of jokes and bullying, you eventually learn to let it go. No one really bothers you about it past like 30yo.

It's usually people who don't have much going for them that might still bring it up, usually out of desperation. I grew up poor, put myself through a competitive college degree, own 2 businesses, active and in great shape for 35yo natty, and honestly don't really care what anyone has to say about anything.

If your height or how you look is the only thing you have going for you, invest in some personal development and find other ways to build yourself up.
Short, fat, and bald crew.

Married a halal virgin hbb crew.

5'9" crew checking in. Never had a problem in school, but was also younger than everyone so I was a year behind in size. Luckily was an athlete so i had respect. Was never the short guy, but was never the tall guy. I started lifting at 14 so I think I avoided a lot of the manlet problems because I had a good frame.

One of the only times I truly felt short was at a wedding. It was time to catch the brides panties when the groom throws them in the air. So I went there with the rest of the single dudes. My cousin was half white so there were a bunch of corn fed farm boys and I swear it felt like they were a foot taller than me. I felt ****in short lol. Still had more hops than all those fat boys. Didn't snatch the panties though.

Only once dated a girl online who was 5'9". I just straight up told her I'm her height with an emoji shrug and it just made her more wet. I didn't give a phuck. I will be honest to say that I am probably excluded from some bangers who are 5'7" or above. I could probably try to get at them, but I would have to be on my A game. Thats fine though, I like them 5'2-5'6" girls with a phat ass.

I think things would be a lot different if I didn't lift or if I was chubby growing up. Also not an uggo but thats a different thread.

It was encouragement to lose weight. When I first got on this forum I was 235 lbs. I'm 205 lbs now and run 2 miles a day, nearly every day.

Well let me put it this way:

Just enough to keep myself satisfied.

Once a week I was fine...every 2 weeks I was fine too.

5'9" as well, and even after being on the Misc for years...it's never bothered me and I don't give a shyt. If I could snap my fingers and magically be like 6'2, then yeah I'd probably do it, but I'm perfectly content with my current height.

If I was much shorter/turbo manlet, then I admit it probably would bother me though.

In after PM

5’7.5 checking in
In b4 “only manlets count the .5 lol

It got me down big time when I was younger.
My dad is 6ft and I idolized him so I grew up wanting to be 6ft
Got into lifting and found the Misc
Realized I was really effed lol

Became a giant manwhore and then eventually became fine with it in my late 20s
Think it’s something I’d have overcome in high school but I’ve read losing a parent when you’re young (15) fukks you up and freezes you emotionally which I believe given my soft sociopathic state for a decade after lol

Now I could give af. Being tall would be cool but I wouldn’t be able to look jacked without gear so it is what it is.
I also started to notice that in the real world, while they’re are taller dudes here and there the majority are around my height. Multiple buddies always told me I wasn’t really short and I didn’t believe them but now it’s whatever, I rarely even consider it.
Happily married, trying for a kiddo and have a house truck and fun car. Life is good

We’re all gonna make it mfers

It does sound kinda neat when you put it that way. Really short dudes stick out like a sore thumb.

Glad to see my fellow manlets in a good head space.

I make more money, traveled more, speak more languages, dress better, fuked more hot chicks, and stronger than all my manmoar colleagues. They bust my chops on being short from time to time but in general they get the fuk out my way cause their girlfriends aren't great at hiding the fact they'd fuk me if given the opportunity.

Guy in my "acquaintance circle" had his fiancé buy his wedding-gift watch from me because she couldn't find it in any boutique. I'm THAT dude, and they know it. Manlets winning.
