the height series: part two (lil dudes)

Part Two in the Height Series explores the phenomenon of the lil dude, or those men who measure 5'6 or shorter (yes, we realize that men who are between 5'6 and 6'0 occupy this in between space where they are tall enough to be acceptable to most women, and so they are not covered here). Whereas the big dude is often characterized by sexiness, the lil dude is often described as "cute" or "adorable," and is often overlooked by women. In fact, short men tend to be more successful in life because they easily avoid the distraction of random panties being thrown their way. This is often because they must compensate for being vertically challenged, which fuels their ambition in other areas. Some examples of famous lil dudes include: Ludacris, T.I., Danny DeVito, Lil Wayne, Nelly, Too Short, Sisquo, Ray J, Napolean among others. Furthermore, several celebrity couples boast a women who is TALLER than her man with or without heels, and so, although they might be a big dude for all intents and purposes, but they share the lil dude experience. Such famous couples include: Mark Anthony and Jennifer Lopez, Russell Simmons and the Kimora Lee (now divorced), Jermaine Dupri and Janet Jackson. In these instances, the man's success overshadows his height deficiency and his mate is willing to overlook other areas that might also be affected as a side effect of his shortness (small hands, small....).

Many women often write off the lil dude because they believe they can only find sexual satisfaction with a tall man, but this is not necessarily the case. In fact, these men are often willing to go out of their way to offer to please their women through cunilingus and other forms of sexual stimulation, particularly if their male member is of a below average size. Be warned, it can be a little disconcerting to witness a man with a baggy condom, but if he scores a perfect 10 in every other category and is determined to find other ways of pleasing his woman, this relationship may have what it takes to survive. Please note that just because a man might fall into the lil dude category, it does not necessarily mean that he will automatically have a small penis, and you may find yourself pleasantly surprised.

Nonetheless, in order to stay with a lil dude, you may have to condemn yourself to a life of flats, but luckily for you, this type of style is currently in. You may also be tempted to occasionally leave him for a big dude, but before doing this, one must consider your financial position in life without the presence of your lil dude. If you are reliant on your lil dude for shelter and/or cash, you should reconsider (particularly if your big dude falls into one of the categories described in the previous blog). If the situation looks grim, just hold on and find comfort in the fact that we are all the same height when the lights are off.
