it's already perpetuating toxic masculinity, but is it racist as well?

But you're still shorter than the national average so, yes you are a manlet and no it's not racist.

Interesting question. I will say that the people who call others manlets are probably barely an inch over what they consider manlet height, because as a 6'4" guy, everyone under about 6'1" looks the same to me.

height is due to genetics, and if my genetics make my height normal...that seems racist.

but it's still toxic masculinity regardless

But it's below average in general, your race doesnt change what is or isn't short. Plus "average" height depends on what metric you're using, and really anyone below 5'9 is considered short. Its just the way it is. It's the same way people say "most people are stupid" obviously that doesnt make sense of were using averages as a metric, but we're not.

It's ok man, there's plenty of short dudes who tall guys would trade places with in a heart beat. Don't get defensive or fight it, just learn to be cool with it and people who try to make a big deal about it will look stupid.

oh i know it's short, but my contention is whether or not its racist to call me a manlet. it's like calling someone physically deformed hideous...yeah obviously, but it seems like a faux pas to do so

I think height jokes are a little unfair and dislike how theyl probably never be taboo. Not comparing the plight of short people to gay or black people but it's still hurtful to be made fun of for something you cant change

Whenever a girls bio on tinder is like 'no guys under 5'11' or something it cuts me up a bit, especially when they aren't tall themselves

Making fun of slanted eyes would be racist, but making fun of you for being short isnt. There's short people of every race. So it's not racist. Now if he connected the shortness to your race, then it'd be racist. But so far the only one doing that is you.

Not really dude. This was a silly post that shows you're reaching really far instead of just accepting the truth. You should stop being so stubborn, it's a bad look.

I'm miffed that my body stopped at 5'11" and always jokingly say I'm 6' in shoes. Lol.

I was fucking 5'9" in the 8th grade. My body betrayed me thinking I was gonna be a mancastle.

my point is that the physical characteristic does not have to be exclusive to that race for it to be considered racist. if a race were known for having large noses, yeah lots of people of other races have large noses...but it's still racist to call him a demeaning term based off that racial characteristic
