Height and social discrimination​

Employment wage and social experience discrimination​

A 2004 study published in the Journal of Applied Psychology showed that height is strongly related to success for men. It showed that increase in height for men corresponds to increase in income after controlling for other social psychological variables like age and weight.[1] That same year, a study published in the Journal of Political Economy conjectured a "height premium" and found that "a 1.8-percent increase in wages accompanies every additional inch [2.54 cm] of height" They also found that men's wages as adults could be linked to their height at age 16. The researchers found that on an average an increase in height by one inch (2.54 cm) at age 16 increased male adult wages by 2.6 percent. This is equal to an increase of approximately US$850 in 1996 annual earnings (or $1,740 in 2025).[17] In other words, the height and corresponding social experiences of a taller male adolescent at age 16 would likely translate to higher wages in later adulthood as compared to a shorter male adolescent.[2]

Recent findings suggest that height discrimination occurs most often against racial minorities. A 2007 study published in the Journal of Vocational Behavior found that African-Americans reported higher weight and height related discrimination. This discrimination was even higher in female employees.[18]

In 2017, attorney and author Tanya Osensky published Shortchanged: Height Discrimination and Strategies for Social Change.[19] The book examines the cultural, medical, and occupational issues that short people face, which are often deemed unimportant and disregarded. Osensky challenges heightism by disclosing some beneficial aspects of shortness and suggesting avenues of activism and change.

Yeah for sure but the point is that there kinda is no amount of work or anything that will ever compensate for height and face and that is an fact.

But putting in the work and being gymmaxxed and moneymaxxed and all that will always be better than not doing anything ofcourse.

Some lazy fucks are never destined for success because they never tap in into the maximal potential that god has given them unfortunately.

Or idk why im saying unfortunately there has to be losers for the winners to be winners
