Michael J Fox height never held him.back.

I dated someone who was 6’4, and I dated someone who was 5’5. At one point, I had a crush on a little person.

Sometimes I wish I would’ve married one of my former suitors because he was decidedly not an a**hole, but I didn’t. C’est la vie. He was shorter than me, I think, but I never cared about that.

I read an article in Men’s Health magazine thirty years ago titled, “If You are Surrounded by Jerks, Consider Yourself Lucky”. It was the best magazine article ever published on planet earth. I added the last part for people that get upset by hyperbole.

I imagine Michael J. Fox’s original character that gave him his start would be considered a jerk by modern standards.

I suppose it depends on how one defines “jerk” or “a**hole.” I only use such terms when they are highly deserved and would be deemed appropriate by just about anyone.

I think Van Der Sloot deserves the name *$$hole. Supposedly, he hasn’t let that stop him in Peruvian prison. I only bring that up for the absurdity of the matter. He wants to divorce his wife to marry the next younger one in line for conjugal visits.

In regards to little people, I don’t think they are placed in the same category when comparing height. They have an excuse in the way of a genetic abnormality. I have always thought it odd when woman asked a short man if he is a little person. Anyone with half a brain can usually tell the difference. It is a valid insult but it makes the person giving it look stupid. It is passive aggressive by way of mental laziness.

A man who prides himself for being tall and handsome and the people who are proud of him for being that way are not comparing him to a little person. They are comparing him to a normal short person and have no problem discriminating against such people because it is socially acceptable.

I am going to try to post a new video of the beloved actor Arnold showing his work out routine and joking with a little person how he doesn’t have Franco Columbo to look tall against anymore but he does have his new little friend. It is an interesting video on more than one level. In another post I posted about the merits of circuit training and said that is what you end up doing when older. What is Arnold doing? circuit training. Is the video funny because he is comparing a little person to Franco Columbo? Yes.

Really, I don’t think it is that complicated.

In regards to how hard a little person would have it when perusing love or sex …. that is rather interesting to consider. I don’t think it is overly complicated. I trust my conclusions for that rather than someone on the internet having a weird need to say it doesn’t matter at all.

I think a lot of little people have trouble getting out of the house or stay in their neighborhood. Some might even have trouble dressing themselves.

I imagine if a little person who is male and he can’t undress himself asked for sex he might have a fair amount of success.

I do think I am at an advantage. Some little people can’t drive, open a door knob. At least a fair number of number of them would not be able to get their arms around a woman to give a full hug. Is that a disadvantage? No, ok if you say so.

I’m not saying they shouldn’t have sex. I’m just saying the rate at which someone would be up to accept it is probably lower. This will sound crude but I think the interest goes up if the little person is female. Why is that I wonder. It could be that men are just *$$holes. Those stinking *$$holes. Where is a white knight when you need one. Oops, wrong vernacular.

I am not of the the camp that think women find short men repulsive. I think that is stupid. I think woman think having sex when they don’t want it is repulsive. That is common sense. That is the part people are getting wrong.

Sure, different people find different things repulsive but I don’t really care what people think that are easily repulsed. They’re generally dumb. Dumb people people don’t count when it comes to opinions. Just ask Fnard who is a super genius.

↑ Sure, but do you have any personal experiences of your own?

When they worked together on Family Ties, she was his TV girlfriend, I think they really fell in love off screen, cuz they got married in 1989.

I had a husband who was several inches shorter than I. I can tell you he had no problem finding women who thought he was attractive.
