psychology of the height pill and why height makes men depressed more than anything else

[betrayed by 5‘8]

Seligman’s learned helplessness explains exactly why the "height pill" hits so hard. In his experiments, dogs were shocked with no way to escape. They tried at first—fighting, struggling—but eventually stopped. Even when they were later given a way out, they just lay there, accepting the pain. They’d learned it didn’t matter what they did. That’s exactly how it works for men and height.

Height is one of the few things that matter most to women, but it’s something a man can’t change. It’s genetic. Fixed. No gym, no success, no charm can undo it. Shorter men face rejection or are ignored, over and over, for something entirely outside their control. After enough of this, they stop trying. Why bother? No effort feels like it will ever be enough to compensate for that missing inches.

This is how depression forms. You try, and you fail. Then you try harder, and you fail again. Eventually, you stop trying. You accept that no matter how good you are in other areas, you’ll never measure up. Height becomes a cage—a constant reminder that society values something you can’t ever change. It’s not just about feeling inadequate. It’s about realizing that one of the most important things is set in stone, and the world doesn’t care how much it destroys you.

No face can save a guy with a child body

 

[aDifferentPerspect]

Height > Face irl

 

[Troglodyte452]

HTN(and above) face + <180 cm height is what all women want. If you're shorter with htn and above face you're gonna lose a little bit of girls and if you're below htn face and tall you're also gonna lose a little bit of girls

 

[einzigartig]

u moron we're not talking about a child body but height

and you cannot have a child body past 5'9

[anthony111553]

thank you bhai, ill finally mog at 5'4

pointless comment, not funny at all and makes no sense as a counter argument

 

[noodlelover]

I'm happy with my height of 6'4".

But no one knows why women reject us. Short people think it's because they're short. I'll think it's because one reason, fix that one reason and then still get rejected.

Sometimes you can get rejected for mogging a girl too hard, and she pre-emptively rejects you. Or she really has a boyfriend. Or you're just not her type.
