Concluding Remarks

"In conclusion, the results of our two studies were fully in line with previous literature on contrast illusions and mate value from animal studies. The conclusions were two-fold, in that a) contrast illusions change the perceived height of targets, and b) the illusions affect the mate value of the target, while this is partially mediated by the height perceptions. To our knowledge, this was the first study to examine height contrast effects in human males and its effect on their mate value. The current findings indicate that if men can actually choose their social environment with regard to height, they could do so in a way that potentially increases their perceived mate value. By avoiding positioning themselves next to men who are taller than them, they could increase their relative attractiveness."

Great, so I'll just have to move to a short country. I'm 5'10 so I'll choose Japan.

I asked around my female friends what they thought my height was. The common response was 6'2". I'm 5'8". I know heightism is a central component of many people's blackpill philosophies, but it ignores the fact that humans are awful at measurement.

You should ask your female friends that next time they’re wearing heels

My wife goes out dancing with them all the time and I sometimes tag along. Many are my height or taller in heels.

He's good looking and has a wife thus Looks>height and they think he looks taller than he is.

[–]MobilePenor6 points7 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

lol at the butthurt downvotes. I understand what you're sayin. I had men taller than me thinking they were shorter or the same height than me. I had women telling me that I'm 180 when I'm 174 on a good day.

People don't see just with their eyes, they also use their prejudice.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
