How tall are you? Are you considered tall or short in your community?

How tall are you, how tall am i,... So what? height doesn't matter, race/facial features does matter.

Over these years i realized that race/face is more important than height, and both things are way more important than personality, etc..

I am peruvian and i am 177.5 cm tall (around 5'10'' in imperial system), the average here is like 1.66 to 1.68 m i think, i don't think i am veery tall but i am definitely on the taller side, some people outside my family told me i am tall, not to mention my family because most of my family is way shorter than me...

But bro what the fuck, i just realized over these years that race matters the most and my height pretty much does not matter because racially i am indigenous (indian, indio, indígena, etc..) which is considered the worst race in latin america, yo what the hell, what have i done to be born racially like that?

Even u/Ladonnacinica told me i look totally indigenous with no mixed nor european features, that would suggest that i look straight up like a brichero (google it), what the fuck? am i that ugly and indigenous looking? that also would suggest that if i go to the US everyone would think i am mexican and not exactly like the mestizo ones but like a low class peasant one? what the hell!! i am at the bottom of the bottom of the bottom of the racial hierarchy!! fucking hate that!! There is a reason why we don't want to be called indígena or indio and it's because of fucking racism!!
