Media - Short Men ProblemsThis is a compilation list of short men's problems and obstacles from these resources.25 Real Struggles Only A Short Guy Will Understand 8 Annoying Struggles You Can Only Understand If You're A Short Guy |
1. You have to tailor every outfit of yours (Shirts. Suits) because they don't make them in your size.
|
| 2. Buying pants is expensive
Buying pants is a S-T-R-U-G-G-L-E. I go into every shopping scenario budgeting not only for the pants, but for the tailoring/hemming that will undoubtedly ensue. There's no such thing as "last minute" shopping for dress pants, unless I want to go for the parachute pant look. 
|
3. You are scared to put up pictures of you and your taller significant other on social media sites for the fear of being ridiculed.
|
4. You have never found dating sites like Tinder, OKCupid and the likes to be helpful, because the entire world supposedly dates only taller men.
|
5. Even if you do manage to find a girlfriend, you're always wary of her shopping for heels.
|
6. You hated going to amusement parks as a child, and probably still do.
|
7. You're often seen sharing quotes and memes that glorify short guys. You also like to call yourself vertically challenged!
|
8. Your friends always call you names. Dwarf, hobbit, munchkin, minion, shorty, or imp. Maybe even Tyrian Lannister.
|
| 9. You have to stand on your tip toes when using public urinals or else you have to aim REALLY high. |
10. You take an eternity adjusting your car seat and sitting position so you can reach the pedals.
|
| 11. The sun visor in your car is completely useless.
I have no idea what it feels like to have the sun visor in my Jeep actually keep the sun out of my face. |
12. When standing in a group or a circle with your friends and having to crane your neck up at everyone. Say hello to neck problems!
|
13. You always find ways to reach at the top of everything. Be it car roofs or top shelf in a grocery store.
|
14. You always have to stand in the front when clicking group pictures because otherwise you'll get lost.
|
15. You struggle through crowds of people, and your friends always lose you in a crowded place.
|
16. You secretly hate your friends who are tall.
|
| 17. Your "little" cousins are taller than you.
Last month, my little cousins came to visit and the first thing they said when I picked them up from the airport was, "We're taller than you -- this is awkward." |
| 18. Sharing the squat bar is awkward.
The guys at the gym never miss the chance to spotlight how "cute" my squat bar is -- not because I squat any less weight than they do, but because my bar is so low. |
| 19. There are times when even getting your haircut makes you self-conscious.
I'm quickly reminded of how short I am every time I get a haircut. I sit in the barber's chair and my barber spends what seems like 10 minutes pumping the chair up to a normal height.
