Whenever I go clothes shopping it always strikes me how much of the selection is geared towards people who are insanely tall and fat. Or maybe it's just bias and those are the clothes that disproportionately get left over, but then why do they keep stocking them

Hey maybe don't make fun of people for things they have no control over. If they're lovely there'll be plenty of other things to make fun of them for. No need to be a dick!

Hmm. It's weird how this keeps coming up in PYF. I'm not particularly short (or tall), but I never thought that 4chan 'manlet' :biotruths: stuff was very funny either way (it's certainly not the height of comedy LOL!). Especially the people who keep going on and on about it, they always come off as either being assholes or desperately compensating for something.

Remember Randaconda? He also loved to go on about 'manlets', how he had superior genes compared to them, etc. and then it turned out he was a total lard-rear end. poo poo, at least your weight is something you have partial control over, although you're still kind of an rear end in a top hat if you go out of your way to make fun of fat people.

Oh and he also turned out to be a pedophile I guess, that one did kind of come as a surprise when I saw that he got banned and clicked his rap sheet out of curiosity a few months back

I'm pretty short and I think manlet is a pretty lovely term and that making fun of people for things they can't control is pretty lovely in general. I had some issues with it as a teen and others I know did too. Stuff like this felt bad at the time, now it just feels rear end backward and lame.

Also face the facts people short people are objectively better:

- any kind of trip is more comfortable
- we need less calories in the future climate wars
- can wear middle age full plate armor in the future climate wars
- oh no look at these things up on the shelves whatever will I do, oh yeah stools and ladders have existed for thousands of years, idiot

we might both be biased, but yeah in my experience its nearly impossible to find shirts that are long enough without also being circus tents

i usually go for whatever fits my torso & then just roll up my sleeves forever

A Dutch dude who is 5"9 is below average in his own freakishly tall country but above the puny American average.

Is he a manlet in the Netherlands but tall in America?

To be honest, I'll laugh at a throwaway joke about Ben Shapiro being a midget or whatever, even though it's not ~ideologically correct~, but it gets weird and uncomfortable pretty quickly when goons stop making fun of a particular person (usually a prominent right-winger where it's implied that he's a hypocrite for not living up to his own ideal of masculinity) and it's just pages and pages of :biotruths: played straight, people unironically posting their height, etc.

Agreed. If you're under 6' you shouldn't be called a manlet because that implies you're a man. The term should large baby or big child. Toddler+.

Lots of places sell out of clothes for people with average heights and build because they're so much more common. So it just looks like there's tons of clothes for bigger people because there are so many of them left.

Not necessarily a particularly large baby. They're making very big babies now, remember that weird, off-putting giant baby from twitter?

We need a term that shows that the baby is just old, non particularly large or manly. Something like elderbaby, or ButtonBois.

To me they're just all the little people around that I have to constantly worry about crushing underfoot. To ascribe age and gender to them would require more careful looking than I'm capable of way up here.

God, I hate that poo poo. You're try to walk at a normal pace and get poo poo done before it's time for more unlimited sex with any partner you wish and these loving things get right under your feet and start screaming "hooteeny!" at you and gesturing with their weird little vienna sausage fingers like its your fault they're under 6'3"
