The problem with your comment is that it classifies short stature as a bad negative trait. In my humble opinion, except in pathological cases, short stature is a normal thing. It should not even be a subject of mockery because being short is not bad or negative or tragic. If a person is healthy, functional, fit and he is 5'4, I don't see why that is viewed negatively in modern society and it is mocked for, like being a 5'4 is a handicape or something. It doesn't make any sense at all. They can run, jump, breed, fight, think, work, drink, fuck, drive, sing like another other taller person, and they can also even be better and excel. It's really an absurd thing. I never understood this and it has always baffled me and when someones makes a joke on short stature, I just don't get it why it's funny or why it's a valid mockery.
- SV_BubbleTime 4y agoI didn’t say anything in the sort. I said I don’t poke at peoples immutable characteristics, period. Are you just looking to be offended? And no for what it’s worth… short people do not run, jump, or fight the same. We could play an anecdote game all day where you find the best historical examples, and i counter them, but let’s not. There are things that make us different, be ok with that, because you sure as hell can’t change it.
- afr0ck 4y agoSorry it came off as offensive to you. I didn't mean to be offensive and in fact the majority of my reply is not directly to you but I was just talking more generally about society mocking normal people with short stature which seems a bit absurd and meaningless to me. Your comment just gave the initial context for the idea to develop. But I understand your point of not mocking people on immutable traits which sounds very reasonable and wise.
