As a 5'3 man, I have always been one of the shortest boys of my grade throughout my elementary and middle school years. My peers have often criticized my height during my childhood. During my high school years, the height comments have stopped. Now as an adult, I have rarely encountered comments regarding my height. It has been replaced with how young I look. People are often surprised regarding my age. I have a deep feeling that if it wasn't for how young I look, I would often receive heightist comments in person. I just hate the fact that it is a common occurrence within short men. Seeing heightist comments on social media really does get me down. But alas, my youthful face really does help me a lot.
