Do you see heightism being dealt with in your lifetime?

What exactly do we expect to see from defeating heightism? If it's respect for short men, then I think that will happen, but it will take a really long time. It's totally acceptable for women to accuse men of not "having balls" to do things or to shame them for cowardice/fear, or condemning men for "measuring dicks" when they are competing or at odds, probably for an important matter, or to "man up", and other such aggressions against a man's dignity. How would society react if someone is to tells a woman to grow some tits/ass/vagina to do something or if she was too cowardly? That will get a guy in real trouble. I think it will take a very long time to get it to women and men that it's wrong to blast short men for their height, or to claim that his personal characteristics are a product of his height.

As for women being attracted to short men, it's never going to happen on the scale that most of us want. I truly believe there is an evolutionary/biological reason behind it. I'm not saying this bitterly, but women have loved tall men for ages. It has always been the case that the taller the man, the better. We can engage in delusion and cite Hadza foragers and other primitive non-European tribes, but when you put a tall man and short man with the same physique, tall will always win out. It's like putting a woman with small misshapen breasts compared to a woman with bigger, nicerly shaped breasts, or a woman with a flat ass with a woman with a nicely shaped round ass, the vast, vast majority of men will opt for the nicer breasts and rounder ass.

The thing with heightism is that it disproportionately afflicts men, and issues affecting men are never taken seriously. Issues affecting men are always seen through the feminist/feminine lens, and never independently by men themselves. When issues that affect men need to be addressed, a feminist perspective is always taken and any other perspective is condemned as woman hating and sexism, because there must always be feminist guidance to decide what masculinity is. If men try to resolve their problems without feminism or women, it's misogyny and hatred of the feminine. Aside from women never going to take men's issues seriously, men won't either. Men compete against other men for women's validation, for the best job, the best this, the best that. That is beginning to change with tall men calling out women for the way the treat short men, but all that does is force these women to be more discreet about their prejudices/hatred. Next time when she approaches a tall man, she won't praise his height immediately, but after things have moved on.

Nobody, men or women, want to hear men complain about male body issues, least of all about the issue of height. Just doing so alone will bring a plethora of stories of short guys doing fine with their height, further claiming that it must be your personality or confidence issues, or that you're a real life asshole and "no wonder why you're pushing away the ladies."

I've looked into the height and attraction issue for a long time for it to not bother me anymore because it too painful to sustain the pressure. My next problem has nothing to do with height, but with feminism engaging in acts of intellectual terrorism by smearing male sexuality and male needs. I've reduced my social life to a minimum and I've found new activities that I do by myself. I've reengaged with video games and reading and I'm finding that it is infested with SJWs, politically correctness, and feminism condeming sexualized women. Next thing we'll see is that porn actresses are too sexy so they have to be average looking. It's already happening with video games and comic books, why not porn?
