I can’t help but see this with Nicolas Cage’s face
Excuse the garbage AI slop, but I’m actually shocked this nearly worked…
This is one of the greatest use of ai I have seen
yes
Are you handicap accessible?
Only in the rear.
Every time I see memes about hight I ask myself why are americans so fixated on that. It’s like this is the major thing american women look in a man. Never seen that anywhere else.
If you’re not tall enough, you might not be able to see if there’s a gazelle or lion behind a large rock, thus you will neither be able to feed your family nor save it from being eaten.
We were all mostly, like, 5 and a half feet tall up until a couple of hundred years ago. Height wasn’t a primary biological advantage for us. We weren’t prairie dogs.
Look at long-neck-short-legs over here, thinking they can keep up with the tribe on multi day hunts.

My sister did the Tindr circuit back in the ‘10s, and she regularly passed on anyone who was shorter than 6’. Some of this might have simply been that all the men and quite a few of the women in her family were at least that tall, but she capped out at 5’3".
She struggled with dating for years, because a lot of the guys she went out with were either fuckbois or work-a-holics or otherwise unfun people to be around. Eventually, she got two requests in one day - one dude who was 6’1 and another who was 5’2". At this point, she was getting burnt out and felt a bit bad about not even giving the 5’2" a chance.
The date with the 6’1" guy was predictably awful. She didn’t even bother suggesting another.
The date with the 5’2" guy was incredibly. The immediately clicked. She totally fell for him. He fell for her. A couple years later they got married. Now they’ve got an adorable little girl and we’re all joking about how it would be funny of my sister’s tall-family genes take over and she’s towering over her parents in twenty years.
Brazil here. My ex wouldn’t date anyone shorter than 175cm and my current gf wouldn’t even look at me if i was under that height.
If you’re with someone so shallow it only speaks to your own mentality
That’s incredibly judgemental of you.
Everyone has their own preference in partners of what they like and what they find attractive.
This says a whole lot more about you than it does them.

I’ve never actually heard anyone say they cared about height. I’ve only heard second hand stories.
Mostly saying, I think it’s a fairly small amount of people that care.
Haven’t been on one in years, but women would put “guys over x height only” in their dating app profiles. I saw it as an advertisement that those particular women were very insecure and should probably be avoided, but it was a significant number of them nonetheless.
Many of my American friends will not date someone shorter than themselves, I guess in part it’s social inertia because it’s just embarrassing more than unattractive
Thank you for adding one more second hand story to alexstsrfire’s collection
It’s relatively common in dating apps here in Germany. I just see it as an immediate red flag and move on.
Not true at all. Hugely important factor for women who are dating. You can literally look up the data on this, heigh is incredibly important for hetero women
Is it women tho? Or is it men telling other men they aren’t good enough again?
I’m short AF and I’ve definitely heard that from women but I also dated several women who were taller than me, one of whom by almost a foot. People have preferences and that’s just how it is. If someone isn’t attracted to you there’s not a lot to be done about it but move on and try someone else. It’s usually not a judgement on you as a person, there’s just no attraction there and as much as we would all like to pretend that doesn’t matter, it usually does. I don’t date women I’m not attracted to either so it goes both ways.
Moving from hungary to sweden is wild. Going from tall to a bit above average is insane and it feels like less because some people tower over me here.
What a weird question. They do have eyes, do they not? If you cannot visually establish if someone is smaller the you then it’s probably negligible.
For a beautiful strange moment, I thought you were going the other direction with this:
What a weird question. They do have eyes, do they not? If you cannot visually establish if someone is a roller coaster, then it’s probably negligible.
Some people have abysmal spatial awareness and, from experience, many women seem to not have much sense of the gradation of height beyond recognizing someone who can loom over them. Eg, many women have said something like, “we’re almost the same height,” while I am 4" (10cm) taller than them. Eventually you just chock it up to a widespread skill issue, or some kind of default mania.
I would see myself do this just to make fun of the situation XD. Honestly if height is a requirement your better of looking somewhere else 😅
And that’s coming from a dutchie.
Speaking of Dutch height requirements… my wife is Dutch. We met at a dance. We chatted a bit, and she did a literal translation at one point of “hoe lang ben je?”.
Her: You’re pretty tall. How long are you?
Me: Long enough, I promise you!
That is one way to break the ice XD
Why aren’t these funny?
This is fucking hilarious.
bc short incel rage isnt ever funny
Were these comics always like this or have the staff all turned into manosphere dick heads over the years? Saw another one the other day where the whole punchline was basically “haha rape”. Used to enjoy occasionally seeing these in my Facebook feed another lifetime ago but a lot of what I’ve seen here on Lemmy so far has been pretty questionable.
C&H comics have been about lewdness and shock humour for decades now, since they started, no?
“Edgy” has gone over into “toxic”
“haha rape”
Rape is never funny. Unless it’s a clown getting raped. And he squeaks with every thrust.
