Is being a manlet more annoying because of the dating world or the social world?

Aka either in the dating world or dealing with disrespect from men socially.

For me I don’t really care about the former but the latter has always irked me when dealing with it in life. I’m at the height where most scumbags don’t really bother messing with me but some still do and it used to grind my gears. Also had a late growth spurt. I’m 5’9.

Never seen this asked before but I’m sure I can’t be the only one with this experience. With chicks some will like you some will not. It’s life. You can make up for it in other ways never really held me back to an extent that I ever gave it much thought.

Both to a point , but more so for dating . Sloots despising manlets is not a new thing like everyone seems to think here .
I got dumped back in the early 90’s when a sloot I thought was the one , dropped me like a hot potato after seeing her butter face coworker dating a tall Chad .
I hate to say it ,but being a manlet , your pretty much going to have too settle for leftovers , the worn out sloots with kids .
But nowadays with social media, you’d be lucky to even pull any of them .
Being a manlet was bad enough in my day, now it’s literally a death sentence. A small penor doesn’t help either for some reason

are you a true 5'9 flat footed or with shoes + e-stat?

If you are a true 5'9 nofraud, then height isn't the issue

It's over either way bro.

When banks don't want to loan you money or landlords don't want to rent to you.

Your credit score goes down because they realize you don't meet the minimum requirements.

Your dog despises you.

You have to shop in the kid section. You are last in line.

They beat you up for lunch money.

You have to use a chair to grab **** off shelves

Waiters bring you a booster seat when seated at restaurants.

Might as well rope at that point.

Online dating it sucks until you learn to just be confident af and that tall chicks are often more likely to give short brahs a chance
Climb em like jungle gyms brahs. Srs.

And I always carried myself well enough that outside of buddies joking around no one really fukked with me socially.

I'm 5'10 and live in America. It's rare for me to be the tallest person in the room but it does happen from time to time, and it sucks when tall girls out-height me, same for male teens that still clearly got more growing to do.

I just default to the following coping:

- Average height is technically like 5'9 for males, so I'm at least slightly above average
- Many famous male celebrities that are deemed hot are close to my height or shorter (Kit Harrington, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Robert Downey Jr)
- It could always be worse, there's always shorter guys
