Are short men considered subhuman?

Are short men considered subhuman?

perhaps those that denounce the use of reason are truly “subhuman”…

is the Japanese passport somehow inferior because the population is shorter than most? are their products any less performant than those coming out of countries where average height exceeds that of Japan? can’t say one’s ability to acquire resources and compete against other humans is super dependent on something that isn’t directly related to intelligence.

No.
But height is largely correlated with social status. Especially in teenage years.
This is why girls largely avoid dating short men because it sort of reflects or affirms they themselves are of low social status unless the short man in question has elevated his social status through other means (by being good at sports, singing, dancing etc.). Inversely this is why they go for tall men because they reaffirm and validate the girls higher social status.

This is also why it becomes a lot easier to date after high school and college when you are short because you have time and space to build status around things that aren’t physical features.


But the point is you are always fighting an uphill battle when you are short.

It can't be denied that they offer a modicum of comedic value.

It can't until they sabotage your diaries, saturate self-deprecating ideologies into this forum, and even troll others.

For elite divisions like the LSSAH (Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler), the minimum height requirement was 5’10”. All standard SS divisions (including infantry, armored warfare units, and communications) had a height requirement of 5’7”. Weale, Adrian (2012). Army of Evil: A History of the SS. New York: Caliber Printing. ISBN 978-0-451-23791-0.

The term "under man" was first used by the American author and Ku Klux Klan member Lothrop Stoddard in the title of his 1922 book The Revolt Against Civilization: The Menace of the Under-man. Stoddard applies the term to those who he considers unable to function in civilization. "short men" can still acquire resources and effectively navigate reality and compete. So can't say they'd be considered "subhuman" be definition.

Furthermore, approximately 8,000 children were born in Germany and around 12,000 in Norway as part of the Lebensborn program, which aimed to fulfill the Nazi criteria of producing "racially pure" and "healthy" Aryans, based on Nazi eugenics. However, it is important to note that not all of these children grew up to be tall. Anni-Frid Lyngstad, for example, who was involved in the program, has a height of 1.72m and is not considered tall.

Very well written doctor.

Someone's height has nothing to do with his true value in the society and his skills. The same as beauty.
It is an advantage in mating but from that to say that a short man or an ugly woman is subhuman the difference is huge.
