I'm 5ft 5in in shoes, maybe a quarter inch under barefoot. I used to feel all kinds of crap about it, but I've been paying attention recently, and every day I walk past at least a dozen cis or cis passing dudes who are my height or shorter. If I hadn't been lazer-focused on finding the short guys, I never would have noticed. It's making me believe that height is less of an issue than I had always thought.
One of my good friends is my height exactly, and I've never seen him get crap for being short. He's a guy, he's never assumed to be anything other than a guy, and it's never been an emasculating or embarrassing thing for him. Secretly, I find it really heartening.
