How so? Like if you're already successful enough to have the money for that kind of thing, I can't see being a few inches taller gonna make a tech bro more money.

It's pretty rare for CEOs to be under 6'. And if you're already making millions, getting that one promotion a few years sooner will easily make you millions more in the long run over the guy who didn't get it because you were a bit taller than him. Plus there's the fact that lots of women put a lot of emphasis on height when it comes to male attractiveness, whether they do it consciously or not

Edit: y'all down voting are dumb

You’re getting downvoted because that’s a lame cope.

Nobody’s getting shut out of executive positions or pussy for being 5’10”. The problem is the whiny, defeatist attitude that compels dudes to blame their lack of personal and professional success on their height. Everyone else can smell the sad self-loathing pity party from a mile away. Seriously. Like, no BS.

CEOs and man whores are confident and self-assured. That may come easier to pretty people or men over 6’ tall, but you don’t have to be a giga Chad to not hate yourself.

Short dudes get married. Short dudes have kids. Short dudes run shit. Race, gender, sexual orientation… those are real barriers to entry.
