Notice how she didn't state exactly what these short men did to prove they have a napoleon complex, nor did she provide a sample size of how many short guys and tall guys she's dated. None of that stopped her claims from receiving almost 400 upvotes. We all know how even if a male has a thousand examples of women acting a certain way, if he generalized them, his stereotyping would still be considered untrue. The best part is how any short man calling this out will likely also be labelled with the napoleon complex.
We also have to keep in mind how women
admit in surveys that they don't prefer short men, so who do you
think women would more likely start a fight with: Jason Momoa or
Danny Devito? There's a good chance that (consciously or
subconsciously) these women will treat a tall partner with more
respect than a short partner, thus leading to more incidents with the
latter, then these women will claim relationships are worse with
shorter men. I'm sure someone out there will be taken aback by the insinuation that women would treat a tall partner with more respect than a short one. Of course, nobody would bat an eye if I said I'd fight a mouse before an elephant.
Either that or some short boyfriends out there made the mistake of confiding in their partner about how height bias bothers them. If a short guy does that, then you can bet he'll be labeled with a complex. But if a woman talks to her man about bodyshaming, then she has no complex. Whatever the case, people love these stories of gentle giants and little napoleons, because due to the just-world hypothesis, everyone can make it seem like it’s about personality rather than height. If that were the case, sperm banks and dating sites would have personality requirements rather than height requirements.
I actually prefer ugly women, but they all have bad personalities so I never date them.
