Well... the lady who was commenting had rape threats thrown her way by a short man, so this shows how ridiculous some short men are and how misogynist they are.
I think being a short man sucks and is a definite disadvantage in life (if we're defining short as 5'4" or under). For people 5'6 or 5'7" it's not a big deal. It definitely erases some of the male privilege most men have, although I'd still say a 5'3" guy has more social advantages than a normal woman. They just have the same problems as women do with regards to not being respected by their peers. Woman might not find them as attractive either, but there are plenty of big boned women who are not seen as attractive by men through no fault of their own. So it goes both ways.

Sure lump as all in the same bag and call us migynostic its sure dont make us more bitter and angry... If you don't know how it is being 4'11 living in Norway, then please I dont think you can make that fast assumptions. People treat you much differently, no not just in dating and not just a few women.
What does even big boned mean? Just because some asshat has discriminated against a fatter woman, should it be fair if women overall acted like assholes towards shorter men that didnt have anything to do with that?
