Michael Lee, a gay writer, expresses his hatred for short men!

Oh yes he did! 

This writer, who is gay (according to the text of the article anyway) expresses his fury and hatred over short men.

So, wait a minute!  After what just happened in Orlando two weeks ago and how outspoken the LGBT community has been against hatred, this ass has no problem spewing his contempt for short men?

So typical isn't it? "You had better not hate me short man but I can hate you over something over which you have no control and out of the other side of my hypocritical mouth I denounce hatred and intolerance,"   says everyone else that is protected from discrimination and screams when it happens to them.

Can you imagine a similar article spewing hate and venom at anyone else and not drawing the ire and rebuke of society as a whole?

What a hypocritical piece of trash!  Look at this crap:    Think it is satire?

Look at this video based on the recent study that taller people are more productive

The same study never pointed out how these taller people are more productive at work tho, it just said they make more money due to their heights.


Of course, all the short people are depicted by short males right?  Get a load of how they have a pic of a much taller woman standing over a short male.

A healthier and cheaper alternative to growth hormone: Testosterone injections

I am sure I don't have to tell the people reading this blog how popular HGH treatment is for shorter children; parents don't want their children to end up short because of bullying in school and better opportunities in life and the workplace are given to taller people.

However, this treatment can be very costly if not covered by insurance; up to $50,000/year in some cases.  After that treatment is over, the child will not have grown substantially, perhaps adding on an extra two or three inches to their initial projected height.   The child will still be short as an adult and feel the pangs of discrimination.

When I was a child, I, of course, was extremely shorter than my peers.  It had more to do with my constitutional short stature ( delayed growth) than lack of growth hormone production.  At the age of twelve, my pediatrician decided to give me testosterone (male hormone) injections.  I was about 4'2" at that age.  These injections, although they sped up my growth, didn't add any height to my projected height of 5'4";  they were given once a month for a period of one year.   When I turned fourteen, I stood about 5'2" or 5'3".  The cost for these injections was a lot cheaper than growth hormone treatment, which I probably wouldn't have been given anyway because my growth hormone levels weren't low enough for them.

In the past years, I have said that I was given growth hormone, after my family told me they thought my shortness was due to lack of growth hormone. Now, I know differently.  I wouldn't have been given testosterone injections if I had been given growth hormone at an earlier age.

So, growth hormone and male hormone are two different things when it comes to cost and treatment.  Parents may opt for HGH treatment after the FDA approved the use of it for children who have idiopathic short stature (no medical reason) in 2003..  In 1980, growth hormone was only given to children who had a medical issue and then it was taken from cadavers, it wasn't synthetic.  Now, it is more widely available but costly as I mentioned.

If your child is growing slower than his peers, you may want to consider testosterone treatment as an alternative.  It is a lot less expensive  and safer than growth hormone (side effects to HGH use are possible, however there has not been enough evidence yet to suggest that they are dangerous).   True, HGH may add (and I stress MAY) on a couple of inches but testosterone will speed up your child's puberty and he will start growing rather rapidly.  Keep in mind that what it will do is get him to his final height quicker.

For younger females who are behind their peers, perhaps estrogen treatment might be an alternative as well.. 

I would strongly encourage people to consider this as an option for their children, instead of growth hormone.  Your child will grow rapidly once treatment begins  and it will be cheaper.  Have a look at this article:

Raheel Raza, Muslim author and activist who doesnt like to be stereotyped, stereotypes short men

This woman, who wrote a book entitled "Their Jihad, Not My Jihad"  which is a book saying that she hates the idea that all Muslims are looked at as terrorists (and therefore against stereotyping) couldn't wait to attack "short funny looking men" in this clip from 2010.

Her position here is that short men are responsible for the problems in the world.  Because Osama Bin Laden was really short wasn't he?   About 6'6" if I can recall.

Australian woman fired for being too short and too young looking

This happened back in 2010; the article is from 2012..    A real estate agency in Australia, Buxton, hired her (maybe she was tall when that happened..lol) and then fired her saying she looked too young and was too short for her sales position.

UK judges want to ban "fattism" in the workplace but no mention of heightism!

According to this article written a couple of months ago, some employment judges in the UK are trying to get legislation passed to ban overweight discrimination in the workplace, citing the fact that it is just as abusive and discriminatory to verbally mock  or refuse to hire overweight people as it  would be if those comments were directed at members of other protected classes of people.  They are right; it is!

However, it is just as abusive and discriminatory to do it to people based on their heights as well is it not?  Why do us short people have to endure verbal abuse in the workplace then, if we are hired at all that is?   Shouldn't the workplace be a place where everyone is free from harassment, no matter who they are?

Well, I guess not, if you are a short person apparently.

Here is the article:   http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/leading-employment-judges-call-for-law-banning-fattism-in-workplace-a6999401.html

Misleading article headline states that taller people are more productive than short people

Of course, many people just look at the headline and say "See, I told you tall people are better than short people!"

Maybe that is what the taller people who wrote this article are counting on; people not actually reading the article.

It states what we all know, that taller people are paid more.  However, nowhere in the article does it say how they are productive.  It just says they earn more and why?  Because of their height!

Quote from Duncan Thomas, an economics researcher at Duke University:

'There is no question that height is rewarded in the labor market over and above all other controls,' he told Bloomberg.

'It's not that height is just a proxy for cognition, and it's not just a proxy for other measures of health. It is rewarded in and of itself.'

 

 Of course, at the end of the article, it made sure to point out how taller men were more successful in dating and that they are healthier, which has nothing to do with how much they make in the workplace.  It is just another stab at short people.

Hypocritical liberal Piers Morgan tells short man to grow

A true laugher.  Advocate for diversity and for accepting people as they are, Piers Morgan tells a 5'7" man that  he needs to grow!

Mate, I'm 6ft 1, you're 5ft 7in.
It's not me who needs to grow, with all due respect. https://t.co/HyQhNXEh6j

If you are short, don't count on HR to help you!

For short people, HR doesn't represent "Human Resources" it stands for "Horrible Representation"..

I had an incident with an employer who told me (twice, I might add) that  "You short people sure have personalities";   of course, when I mentioned this to my employer and HR I was told that I was not protected from that because I was not disabled.   Okay, how about if she said "You gay people sure have personalities"?   Think there would have been consequences for her?  Me too!

Now, here is another gem from a  hypocritical supervisor.  "I was reluctant to hire you because you are a little guy and probably incapable.".  Oh yes, and when I told that corporate ass kissing HR representative, he just laughed it off.  Now, this same HR rep fired someone else for saying "God made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve" and it was overheard by a lesbian employee, though not directed at her.

Also, both these female bosses happened to be black (that isn't offensive is it,  God forbid). 

Imagine if similar comments were directed their way.  How hypocritical!

So, if you are harassed and discriminated against because of your height, you can forget "Horrible Representation" coming to your defense.
