Tall people have all the advantages
By CHRIS HART

Short men have to work so much harder to get on, unlike tall men who have an advantage in life.

Tall salesmen find making a sale easier than their shorter colleagues. And people have a completely unwarranted prejudice that says shorter men are less mature and less capable.

Height works in politics too. So it’s no surprise that all but three of the American presidents have been above average height. Tall men find it easier to get promoted in the military, and they’re more likely to reach the boardroom – or the bedroom.

So short guys who want to get to the top have to be much more focused, assertive and forceful to compensate for their lack of height. In fact, they often get criticised for overcompensating – for being touchy, aggressive and overbearing.

That might seem like some sort of unreasonable stereotype, but there is some truth in it. For example, they also tend to be more suspicious of their partners – especially when there are taller guys around.

And, in a way, that makes sense. Because women are more attracted to tall guys – mostly because of their increased social status and income. Tall men get more replies to lonely heart ads, attract the most physically appealing partners, and are more likely to get married and have children.

Things are slightly different for women. Because while women prefer their men to be tall, men usually prefer their partners to be of average height. Being popular like that makes these women more confident of their attractiveness, and so they are less likely to be suspicious of their partners.

Unlike their shorter and taller sisters, who more easily imagine that their partners might be straying! But all women are jealous of their taller rivals. Mostly because, like men, taller women tend to be more dominant and socially successful.

So is that why high heels are so popular with the ladies! They’re so impractical and tiring to wear, and yet just about every woman loves them. But is that all about height? Well, no, it isn’t. It’s actually mostly about sex! High heels create a set of fascinating femininity signals.

By narrowing and elongating your legs, exaggerating the sway of your back, emphasising your bottom and lifting your breasts, wearing high heels sends an irresistible message. Just like the way giggles and wide eyes say you’re young.

Or running your tongue along your lips says you’re sexy. Or coyly averting your gaze says you won’t be wooed by just anybody – especially someone who’ll just love you and leave you.

High heels tell the world that you’re not afraid of your sexuality. In high heels every woman’s erotic and yet vulnerable – a message every man understands. And they put you in touch with your femininity. Just like wearing sexy underwear – except that everyone can see what you’re thinking.

But high heels also send female power signals. They send a message of confidence. You’re walking tall, and more precisely and elegantly.

So wearing high heels not only tells the men “I want to turn you on” but also tells the world “I want to take you on!” Which means that everywhere, people associate high heels with both feminine glamour and strength.

Isn’t it strange how something like your height can have such an effect on your life? For both sexes, being tall gives you an advantage in the race for social status. One which women can use to good effect by wearing high heels!


But men can’t use the same trick, because high heels also send those messages of femininity. So all through history, successful short men have worked extra hard to overcome their disadvantage. And many have succeeded – often very spectacularly indeed. Look at Napoleon Bonaparte, for example, who became an emperor.

You really can compensate for your height, not just by working harder, but by being more determined, focused and assertive. And above all, when it comes to attracting a girlfriend, by being confident – and fun to be with.

Perhaps it’s no accident that some of the most successful actors and comedians are small guys? But do watch out for those feelings of insecure and needy guy.
