[+] -9 points 8 months ago (8 children)

Oh man, I'm giving up on this thread. I seriously don't know how I could more clearly explain what I'm talking about. I even edited my main comment to no avail. I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT TALL MEN SIMPLY DATING SHORTER WOMEN, my gf is 20cm shorter too. I quite literally meant child-height in relativity.

    That's stupid then, no offense. The height of children ranges greatly just like the height of adults, there's considerable overlap.

    It isn't something clearly defined.

    I don't need a definition of a children's height to have average image of their height and feel disgust when I see grown ass man or tall dude with one that next to him makes me wonder if that's their child or wife

    Literally how is this stupid? It's how I feel. It's my feelings, which are objective to me that are not imaginary and I cannot ignore. I believe there is clear logic behind it and rest is a matter of personal opinion or your own "feel" towards the matter, but is it really stupid?

    You can have stupid feelings, especially once they concern how you treat others. There's a big difference between "idk why, but I really like cherry flavored ice cream" and "idk why, but these people make me feel uncomfortable", because the latter opens you up to treating others with prejudice.

    It's your job to wrestle with them and make sure your feelings are justified, or to change your mind.

    Feelings can absolutely be wrong, and yours are. Your feelings that men dating short women is gross is extremely sexist.

    Imagine someone saying, "I have no idea why a white guy would date a black woman, they look like monkeys and bestiality is wrong."

    Them feeling like black people look like monkeys is wrong.
