A bulletin from the other side. As a very short man it doesn't matter whether I am good looking, the default height determined dismissal overrules most considerations of success, competence, character, humor, or intelligence, and from both sexes. Women must face judgement from friends, sisters, mothers if they choose to date a "low value" man (you can do better than that, dear) and speculation about what would make them value themselves so lowly. Men automatically dismiss and diminish according to height, and though these reactions can be overcome from time to time, they are a major pain in the ass;)
