I’m 6’ and height isn’t everything. You lying if you say you never seen short and average height men with bad bad females. Sounds like you have a case of confirmation bias. Height is a neutral to positive trait in men. But once you start getting 6’4”+ range, it’s harder to literally maneuver in the world, ducking your head to get in doors, seating on airplanes, not looking like an awkward lanky beanpole, finding clothes that fit and look good is harder etc.
Height is not everything with modern young women. Archaic Male Strategies looking like he stuck in 2004 around young thotties. Looking like an extra from that movie Hitch and shyt.
He look and act like a fossil to them. If a nikka looking and dressing like Fabolous was at that table, he woulda ate. You can’t look cloutless around clout chasers. And damn near everyone under 35 is a cloutchaser nowadays. Archaic Male Strategies prolly would eat best with 35+ year old single moms with self esteem issues.
