It has nothing to do with being discriminated against.. It seems that people now think that if people don't like one, or don't want to associate with one, then it must be discrimination, and it is wrong.
One of the civil rights is the right to associate with whom one pleases. We all have the choice of who we would like in our circles.
The bottom line is that we are an animal species, that we have animal instincts, and women look for the strongest men to protect them and the richest men to provide for them.
Short men are not perceived to be as strong as tall men. It is no coincidence that most of the men's billionaires are short men.... Compensating achievement.
