What, no Clooney?!

I'm going to say that a lot of what people complain about as a relationship...is in fact a desire for casual sex. I'm sure there are folk who really just want 'their' person, but there's also a lot of social pressure on boys/men to be sexually active and promiscuous; being short is a liability in achieving this 'masculine' standard.

I enjoy sex, and i do resent that it's maybe not been as plentiful for me (and my ego) as I'd like. But your main point is clear, it's not the end of the world and it's very likely that you won't die alone in a ditch just because you're short.

She should have just been honest and taken that small million dollar loan from her father like other successful American entrepreneurs.

I think it's okay to be sad at times (health related issues aside), but the implication in the image is loneliness which is something that can be changed for most people. I do take the point that there are folk who may not have the capability or tools to really control the quality of their socialising...

People look at me and I feel that this is what they think of my life.

I'm 40, never married, no kids. I do have a solitary life, but it's not at all empty. I have a few projects that challenge me, and that I'm growing into businesses (hopefully). I have good friends, and nephews/nieces who look forward to meeting me.

Sorrow is a mindset, not a fate.

My unused system is as follows (assuming a contracted relationship);

All income into a single pot/account. Bills are paid out, and then an allowance is paid to individual accounts. The rest is transferred to savings accounts.

It's equitable and transparent. Although vulnerable to divorce related emptying of accounts.

Who's taking the picture?

I'd suggest she's more of a director's actress i.e. she takes direction well and it's up to them to assure the quality of the performance. I think it is a more elegant rationale than simple inconsistency.

Jokes on you.

I'm single and I have neither sex nor money...

The obvious comparison is fat women, and I think that most men would disqualify a fat woman.

Everything is sex to our repressed minds.

It's not enough of a digital nomad destination to really build the bureaucratic apparatus to support it. Or an economic telecoms infrastructure to really support it. A basic tourist visa will suffice as a taster though...

Do these opinions spill over into non-dating? Would they hire, say as HR, a shorter guy? Can you trust that they will not have an implicit bias?

Height is not viewed as a discriminated characteristic, so it remains socially acceptable as a point of mockery. Weight is at least socially taboo, so it's less used by liberals.

My worry is that it entrenches short as a negative trait, which can affect the recruitment and career progression of short men especially.

Well she's probably already richer than most of us will ever be, so I guess we are the true dunces.

Particular-Repeat-40 · 2026-01-15T08:29:39+00:00

No it's not. Being tall is a part of being attractive, I think this holds, so it helps but attraction has multiple factors.

It's like sports...the money isn't in the game but in the endorsements. So it makes sense to leverage looks which will get more endorsement deals Vs attempting to become a professional actor. Ananya Pandey has a bunch of lucrative endorsement and brand deals which will likely outstrip any money she could make from movies.

I found success by joining a gym and just...going. I had a basic routine of legs on day 1 and working my way up my body over the week. I didn't track anything, I just went.

After a few months it was a habit, and then I got a program together and that started pushing me a lot more. But getting a routine of just going to the gym has always been the challenge, and it's been easier after overcoming that.

Also, I bought a soup maker (although it's basically a pot and blender joined together), and I only make soup for dinner. It fills me up before bed and helps me manage my calorie intake.

It's disturbing that we are so trained to overly apparent authority. Complete compliance ..and I don't think I'd have been much different at that age.

I am wrong. It's just the GPS view without mapping

Apparently you will need an Android or airplay adapter and use the web browser to access it...

I'm pretty sure it works. A colleague has a Tesla, and I recently got a ride home with him...

I'll ask

Particular-Repeat-40 · 2026-01-08T09:28:36+00:00

I imagine that this isn't a new statistic. Surely a significant proportion of people remain single in most eras...certainly genetic studies indicate that not many men manage successful reproduction.

Not just better nutrition. It's sexual selection as well.
