Back in the day, exaggerated height was associated with dimwittedness. Was there any basis for this?

why are manlets so envious of people who are larger than themselves? its as much as admitting that being small is akin to being inferior.

I'm 6'3 and posted this thread out of curiosity when I overheard friends at a party talk about it.
Are you trying to imply every jab at tall people have to do with manlets? Why can't I be curious out of self-interest?

Opposite in fact, there was a study about the correlation about the length of legs and intelligence by Harvard I believe

There's probably a sweet spot around 6' to 6'3 where you are reasonably taller than the others without already entering either freak zone or physically unhealthy zone. And I do really beg the question, having known a couple of people who were a head taller than me, and I'm already close to 6' (yes, not quite I'll admit). Is being formed like a pencil preferable to having a normal build for the sake of some inches?

Back in the day you didn't get social media so people would have to talk to you at face value. So short and average people would face adversity due to it, moreso the hobbits, and they'd already have a built in cynicism. The association had nothing to do with them being tall, but more to do with them being treated more respectfully by normal people, if not desired by normal women.
Ergo, tall people are happier and better treated so they don't have to try harder. They also get more intelligent and better looking because intelligent good looking women prefer them every generation, stopping only when they're too tall to be healthy (areas that faced more famines have shorter people).

So...no, there was no basis, just cynical cope over tall people being happier.

don't think they're dumber, but they do have shorter lifespans on average.

It makes sense because they already have heart and circulation problems so imagine trying to pump even more blood to your brain and stress your body. That's why they have slower reaction times and most seem like they are out of their mind. Most people don't comprehend how difficult it is to maintain such a body and what amount of resources it requires compared to an average person.

It's because women judge them for being smaller. Granted men do too, but nobody gives a shit about that

Probably the same reason pretty girls tend to be dumb, nobody corrects them, everyone always tends to agree with them and help them, so they never quite actually learn what is real and always seem kind of dumb to people who have to deal with the harsh reality.

According to legend and mythology the giants were taller, stronger, smarter and lived much longer lives, had six fingers and toes, their jaws had 2 rows of teeth, they were incestuous marrying the sister, great builders engineers and astronomers and were sometimes cannibals

how do we unpick all this?

I'm 5'10" and I knew this dude who was 6' but the height difference between us was literally entirely in the dude's neck. From the shoulders down our bodies were similar but it was like he had an extra vertebrate or something in his neck. It looked goofy as hell.
