I don't mean to offend any little men in here but I just had another run in with one yesterday. Will you guys get over it please! I realize that looking up at everyone, being outweighed by everyone and being weaker than everyone must be intimidating but we are all shorter, smaller and weaker than somebody else you know so really dudes GET THE F*** over it, you don't have to try to cut the big man down to size.eace
EDIT: I meant for this to go in off topic not the lighter side, my mistake.
Why should size be an issue? As the word goes, Mr. Colt made all men equal. :wink2:
why indeed, but there are many "little" guys out there with chips on their shoulders about it. I'm a fairly big guy (6'3", 210) and I have been treated rudely by short guys with the "wee-man" syndrome on many occasions. I don't get it. I was a "late bloomer" so all through most of HS I was one of the shortest, smallest guys in the school and was never an ass about it.

I think society has put a lot of pressure on men to be big and strong like it does on women to be small and pretty. I am 6' which used to be considered pretty tall but these young guys all suddenly seem to be like 6'2 so I am looking up a lot these days.:lol:

Maybe he just doesn't like you, and size has nothing to do with it?
A story in our local paper yesterday was about a woman arrested for punching her son in the face and giving him a bloody nose. The kid is ten years old, 5'11" tall, and weighs 210 pounds.
Heh, I've always thought the air is better down closer to the ground. :mrgreen:
I have a theory on this sudden surge of kids getting so big so fast. I think it's the growth hormones that have been given to our livestock for the last couple of decades but that could be a thread of its own.

What's changed is the opinion of when a person becomes 'full grown.' People say this about 17 and 18 year olds as if it's a shock that, after almost 2 decades of living, one reaches physical maturity. The idea of a 17 or 18 year old being 'immature' is very modern. Countless years ago they would have been out of school before that age, thus, they would have been seen as 'an adult' when they reached their full height.
---------------that's why you have all these 12-13 y/o girls walking around with 36DD racks

Really?
What do the 21 year olds look like?
Where do you live?
- I see nothing really different between now and what girls looked like when I was young, 30 years ago or so. :shrug:
meh, I graduated HS 32 years ago. when I was in school, most of the girls in our class were flat chested until 8th or 9th grade. there were a couple who developed earlier but not many. My first teaching job was at a middle school (grades 6,7 and 8) in 1995 and most of the girls in my 7th and 8th grade classes could have easily passed as being 16-17 years old.
