Research
In 2007, a study by the University of Central Lancashire concluded that the Napoleon complex is a myth, described in terms of the theory that shorter men are more aggressive to dominate those who are taller than they are. The study discovered that short men were less likely to lose their temper than men of average height. The experiment involved subjects dueling each other with sticks, with one subject deliberately rapping the other's knuckles. Heart monitors revealed that the taller men were more likely to lose their tempers and hit back. University of Central Lancashire lecturer Mike Eslea commented that "when people see a short man being aggressive, they are likely to think it is due to his size, simply because that attribute is obvious and grabs their attention".[10]
The Wessex Growth Study is a community-based longitudinal study conducted in the UK that monitored the psychological development of children from school entry to adulthood. The study was controlled for potential effects of gender and socioeconomic status, and found that "no significant differences in personality functioning or aspects of daily living were found which could be attributable to height";[11] this functioning included generalizations associated with the Napoleon complex, such as risk-taking behaviours.[12]
No surprise here.
Black and angry.
Short and angry.
Gay and angry.
When others are angry, it's because they're angry. When these individuals are angry, it's because of
what they are.
Disclaimer: I don't compare "short discrimination" to discrimination faced by LGBTQ individuals or members of underrepresented ethnic groups. That'd be a total "My classmates didn't like me because I had red hair" play. But there is a small overlap in that it is treated as cause-and-effect when it comes to being angry. You're angry because you're (you).
