I'm a manlet. I'm only 5ft6. People here tell me it's over when in reality it's not. I've dated lots of girls and I was in 2 "kind of" serious relationships. I lost my virginity at 16.
You can believe me or you can think that I'm lying to you - it's your choice. I'm not trying to start a discussion about anecdotal evidence that only I'm aware of because you can't prove me wrong and I can't prove to you that I'm telling the truth.
The reason I'm saying this is because there is a big misconception going on imo. "Height is everything." It always goes like: "Face>Height"
Well I disagree because of personal experience. Does height matter? It matters a lot. But you know what also matters?
...And of course
- HEIGHT!!!
But the point of mine is that it's just one aspect, it's one single feature of the whole body. That's like saying "nose" is everything when it comes to the face. No. It's just as complex, probably even more complex than it is with the body but you get the point.
Is a lack height putting you at a disadvantage? Yes.
Can you still date beautiful girls? Yes.
Now the question is how important is height? And I would say it's pretty important. With the face we see some features being more important than others. The mandible for example is more important than the cupid bow to give you an example.
Some studies indicate that the shoulder to waist ratio is more important than height.

In different studies women picked the shorter but broader men over the taller ones with more narrow collarbones.
Other studies disagree and say height is more important. I'm not here to discuss those studies and their reliability but the simple fact that some studies claimed to have proven that height is not the most important thing when it comes to the attractivness of a males body shows you that there is more to it than just HEIGHT.
I'll leave you with that. I'm out.

- the width of the collarbones
- the narrowness of the hip bone
- the ability to put on mass easily
- muscle insertions
- leg to torso ratio is proven to make a difference
- thickness of the bones in general
- overall skin tone
- overall frame
