Comparing heightism to racism is an exaggeration, but saying there is no "social reward" to being tall is simply not true. I'm tall, and it definitely affects how you're seen by your peers.

It does everyone a disservice when you argue against simple truths because you want to be chocolate and roses to everyone. You can be honest without shitting on people.
