When I was younger i never experience any type of heightism towards me. I had friends, I had teachers that liked me. Everyone knew who i was and no bullied me. I was fully accepted. The same thing happen when I was in high school and during my college years. Absolutely no heightism.
It was until like After my college years that i beginning experiencing of series of unfortunate events that i did not know why it was happening. Until 2011 I started to realize that what i looked like had something to do with how i started to get mistreated. So like some of you i started to dress better etc to see if that would improve how others treated me but it didnt.
Now this past decade and onward has been hell. Everyday i discovered how much the world truly hates short people. Short people are physically abused, mistreated, discriminated, treated injusticely, etcetc and no one cares. Not one person think maybe this isnt right. its just accepted because the world all think we are inferior because of our height. They dont care if you have a lot of talent, or if you are intelligent, or if you had great character. They dont care how nice you were. All they care and still care about is how you look. We are all treated or mistreated based on how we look. And thats a reality. They want the total package. A nice great body so they can fulfill their lustful desire and have something nice to look at.
My home life begin to deteriorate as i had to move back home. I have been chased around by my mother with a machete, a hammer, a chainsaw? Why because i tried to advocate on the lives of short people. But that didnt work. My mom would swing a physical weapon at me if i didnt shut up and accept the mistreatment that she offered me. Why because I was short and somehow deserved it.
Being short has taught me in general people are evil. I know some people say oh you shouldnt over generalize but i will. All of these social justice movements are not about humanity its about who qualifies and deserve to be treated like a person and who does not. I have been denied jobs, fired, laid off, denied housing, etc medical treatment all because of my height.
The reality, The biggest bullies are not children. They are adults. I am convinced that if children bully someone else its because they have witness their parents or older adults do it. All prejudices are learned behavior. Learned behavior conscious or subconcious passed down from one generation to another.
This is my story of being a short woman in this cruel world.
