Advice for short/skinny men

[RustinKohle]

Hey guys, I've read alot on this site, and it has helped tremendously with my mindset and outlook when it comes to my interactions with women. However I do feel like I get looked over due to my size (my friends are 6'2+, I'm about 5,8) and was curious because I haven't found alot specifically for the smaller men. O do exercise frequently so I have a "skinny buff" physique. What are some good fashion tips? And what's some good advice I can use to perhaps draw more women towards me outside of fashion? I have had some success just looking for a little more consistency at this point.

Rustin,

I have plenty of short friends who do quite well with women (and have zero formal training in seduction, mind you). I've actually dated women who are taller than me by a couple inches. If you really think it's that big of a deal, you can buy some large-heeled boots and it will give you another couple inches or more.

Taller men may only seem stronger because we conflate height with weight and strength. Second, being “looked up to,” quite literally, may at some subconscious level lead taller men to feel that they have superior qualities. Third, and most importantly from a scientific perspective, we simply don’t have the experimental cause-and-effect data to back up the idea that social attitudes and not the caveman explanation are behind any particular set of mating advantages being conferred to taller men.

The "tall man = power" equation may simply be part of the male-female power differential. Men are taller because of hormonal influences. This then becomes translated into social attitudes. We’re all conditioned by media images to prefer men and women with a certain kind of appearance. As proponents of a bio-social gender approach to male height vs. attractiveness would argue, the two sets of influences are most definitely intertwined.

I'm 5'10 (being generous to myself, here ) and it's never hurt me one bit. A certain buddy of mine is actually 5'7, but you know what? He's charismatic, fun to be around, dresses sexy and dominantly leads women. The guy always has some new arm candy every time I see him.

Being short only matters because you think it does. The height thing is all in your head. Don't let it limit you!

One thing I have noticed is that when I open girls who are taller than me is that they LOVE it. A guy talking to a girl a head taller to him has to have some serious gnads right? But it doesn't bother me to much, all the friends I'd consider my real ones are all well above average (we used to get rob and big comparisons frequently) it just seems they get more attention as they stand out. But if all there is to do is brush it off and keep gaming, it's what I'll have to do

Yes! Definitely.

Makes me remember a girl I approached at a mall one time. She was sitting down on a bench, and I opened her and was being very flirtatious and eventually she stood up and was waaaaaayyyy taller than I thought she was going to be. She was indeed wearing heels, but she was easily 4-5 inches taller than me. I remember texting her and she told me "We can hang out and stuff, and you're super sexy. But I don't think we could ever date. Is a more casual type of relationship ok with you?"... and I was like "HELL YES!"
