Woman Tells Guys Shorter Than 5’7″ To Swipe Left On Tinder, So This Guy Makes Her Regret It
While the modern world is busy breaking down prejudice, stereotypes, and body-shaming at a rapid pace, there are some things that get curiously overlooked, sometimes literally. Short men being one of them.
Can you imagine, for example, you were single and browsing online dating sites for a match. You come across profiles that explicitly state things like: ‘Nobody over 70kg’ or ‘small-breasted women need not apply.’ There would likely be outrage, right? And rightly so. That kind of superficial and demeaning attitude shown by these rude people needs to be confronted in this day and age.
However it’s curiously common, accepted and even encouraged for a woman to state quite openly in her Tinder profile that she would not consider dating a guy that is shorter than her, and many will quite happily post a minimum height limit. Why is this? Fair enough, we all have our preferences, you might say. Which is true. But for this to be such a widespread and openly accepted phenomenon begs the question, what about the short guys?
The guy in this story exposed the stunning hypocrisy that many shorter, single guys face all the time in the Tinder dating world. Yeah, he baited this woman, and she followed his cues and bit. Hard. It does open up the discussion though, and it is perhaps time that more attention was paid to this form of body shaming.
People can lose weight, get botox, hair transplants and all kinds of other methods to hide their insecurities, but 5’3” guy will always be 5’3.”
Scroll down below to check out the savage comeback to such rude statement, and feel free to post your opinion in the comments below.

I prefer dark-haired people but if someone approaches me telling that blonds are gross, I'm not going to be agreeing with the person like this woman did. It's quite normal she wanted someone taller than her, but to go to the extent to agree whatever this guy said? That was wrong. (also, the guy did provoke this a little bit)

Exactly... He wanted to draw a reaction out of her, and she took the bait😂😂😂

i think the point of all this should be, don't be shallow, you don't know the form of your best love.

It's normal to have preferences but love simply doesn't work that way. If I had to describe the physical of the perfect woman to me, she would be a curvy brunet with long hair. The perfect man would be a tall Mediterranean guy (seeking my father may be ;p). And I promised myself never dating a smoker. Well my first true love was a tall androgynous girl with short ginger hair that smoked a lot (3 years together) and my companion is 5.6' and he inherits his chinese mother type (9 years together last week). I've been with people fiting my ideal and it didn't work. I would have miss a lot by sticking to my "ideal" ;p
