How tall are you?
I've ran across many insecure people, and severe cases are mostly men who are like ~5'2" "tall" and have to be alert when the house cat is hungry. Understandably since their heigtened aggression serves the purpose of surviving.
As a manlet myself I can attest that taller men like to poke fun at shorter ones which is, when light heartedly used, pretty amusing. Interestingly, the most spiteful humor seems to come from the 6' even crowd.

That's not manlet, nor particularly short. 5'8" was average height for a long time.

5'6 to 5'10 is probably the best height for building muscle without drugs...gives better leverage for strength and they can fill their frames and not have a lanky look.

It's all in good fun - most things I say are tongue in shiek. Nonetheless I have been around folks who are pretty obsessed about being short or tall... maybe some kind of masochism.

5'5, 5'7, 5'9, 6'0 or 6'5 I'll still look better, train harder and walk better than you on any given at even at 55.
I'd like to stretch one of those funny Napoleon hats over your bloated head.

Rory would be in the minority he is one of the very few bodybuilders that are tall that could've been the best in the world

Napoleon was actually average height for the time, it was English propaganda which depicted him as short and it's obviously stuck till today.

I'd say 5'5 - 5'11
Depending on bone structure & body limb length ratio's + head size.

How many short men have you crossed paths with that are insecure and have Napoleon Syndrome? It is very very rare that Ive met a short man who is chill and confident and doesnt have to brag or be a loudmouth. Would venture to say as high as 90% of men under say 5 foot 9 are insecure mouthpieces

Well what guy is cool with being short? Did you not go through grade school? Lol.

Shorter does not necessarily mean you're suited for bodybuilding either (not that you said that). You still need the correct somatotype, hypertrophy ability, and aesthetics, which are also genetic.

And still walk better than you. 44 years of training no back problems. Maybe if you had just learned to train....

i'm 5'10

average height in most places,  i meet some people eye to eye with me that claim to be 6'0

i don't understand the concern with short guys if they are so "inferior",  big dogs typically aren't concerned about the barking pomeranian unless that dog is taking their food so what are these short guys taking from you?

i think some tall guys are actually the insecure ones, their height is the only positive they have going for themselves so it bothers them to see a short guy being more successful err "mouthy"

Hey gimmick, all women care about is that you're taller than them. I'm 5'10" and my woman is 5'4" and no complaints. Height means nothing. It's all about confidence, which is clearly something you have little of.
