Like where else should they go, that's something you didn't address lol

Should tall people not be allowed anywhere because they're tall?

by Prosaccodonnie 8 months ago

Yup, in fact we should just send all tall people to jail and get it over with

by Cordell02 8 months ago

Understandable.

by Prosaccodonnie 8 months ago

Are you trying to reply to OP? Because I've said nothing to provoke your question.

by taylor45 8 months ago

I'm just asking, seems like you think they should move because they're tall.

by Prosaccodonnie 8 months ago

Must've misunderstood me then.

by taylor45 8 months ago

All good then. Don't really understand why someone would get angry just cause someone's tall and exists 😂

by Prosaccodonnie 8 months ago

Like where is my bf supposed to go, all the way to the back of the venue? You're giving 5'2 vibes

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I'm nearly 6' so now what? Lol

by taylor45 8 months ago

Only short people say 'nearly' when referring to their height.... I am 6'3"..... /s

by Anonymous 8 months ago

So if you waited in line and made it to the barricade at a concert would you let anyone short just get in front of you then?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

No?

by taylor45 8 months ago

You're making it seem like you think the tall person should give up their spot to be polite if someone asked, are you not?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I'm not, no.

by taylor45 8 months ago

That's fine, another person just did too lol

by taylor45 8 months ago

If you're boyfriend is too weak to keep people from getting in front of him, maybe you should try to date short guy.

by Adept-Junket-644 8 months ago

Nah I want my future children to be tall

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I bet you're like a 5'1 girl who's bases her whole personality around having a tall boyfriend lol

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I'm 5'6 and my boyfriend is 6'2 and he's the first tall guy I've ever dated in my entire life

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Like anywhere else in the venue?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Oh the over-arching assumption you've made is that these are general seating tickets?

by taylor45 8 months ago

Yeah I don't think it's really an issue if you don't get GA tickets because all the other seats are in the back way high up anyways

by Anonymous 8 months ago

You might be surprised how tall people are even in stands lol

by taylor45 8 months ago

Yeah but why should they have to be responsible for a short person's experience? Would you give up a plane seat you paid for that's right by the exit so you could get off the plane first just because someone else wanted it?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Do other people not have a right to enjoy the entertainment they paid for just like you? I'm not going to say all tall people should move automatically but there is a point where it's just about being a decent person

by Cordell02 8 months ago

They can enjoy it somewhere else without having to ask someone to move tho, that's the point.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Okay well the overweight person can just lose weight or literally buy another seat. And a short person can just buy a seat that's higher up so they can see the stage. Or they can move somewhere that's not right behind a tall person. How would you feel if you buy a plane ticket and the flight attendant asked you to stay at the airport and board the next flight because the person next to you was so big that you wouldn't fit in your seat?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

These aren't comparable at all.

by taylor45 8 months ago

How are they different then?

As a tall person, 6'6", who goes to concerts occasionally, I find it much more rewarding to stand off to the side or in the back. Short people with short people tempers throw beers and insults. Or I work on my squat game the whole show. Also rewarding.

by Jackiegleason 8 months ago

Omg yes the short people syndrome is so wild to me. You're kind for giving up a good spot but I think it's so rude to have people treat you like that for simply existing. My boyfriend has also had drinks splashed on him and people purposely stomping on his feet. Like calm down ankle biters

by Anonymous 8 months ago

if you don't like it you can go somewhere else Like, in front of them?

by schadenmanuela 8 months ago

If a tall person is there first, then that's their spot. But when tall people push their way in front of my 5ft2 self, that sux.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I'm a tallish guy with a shortish wife and we love going to concerts! But she hates not being able to see... so we often arrive earlier to get up where she can see the stage easier. My position is usually to stand behind her and then mostly planted so people behind me can organize themselves. I have a secondary role to look out for people looking to push her aside. I've asked people if they wanted to cuddle with me, since they pushed my wife out of the way :) By far and large, I find most concert goers to be good natured but unaware of their surroundings in the quest for a better view or to group together with friends. Finding a good chill group of randoms to dance near is the best.

by oconnercloyd 8 months ago

If it annoys you so much when people do that to your boyfriend, why don't you just stand behind him at concerts

by schillermaryse 8 months ago

Because he protects me from people and guards me so people don't shove past me lol.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Yeah but my boyfriend is a gentleman and lets me have a spot in front of him so I can be closer to the stage. And people would still try to shove past me even if I was being him

by Anonymous 8 months ago

A gentleman is someone who is polite and considerate to all people, not just their girlfriend. As a shorty you should just suck it up and enjoy your place behind him in the crowd without complaint.

by schillermaryse 8 months ago

I wouldn't consider my boyfriend a gentleman if he put every other woman's comfort before my own. Sorry but I being his first priority.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Again, a gentlemen is someone who is polite and considerate of all people. Not just his girlfriend, or women. To summarise your position: - Short people shouldn't complain about being stuck behind tall people at concerts, and shouldn't ask to stand in front of them so they can see - You are short - Your boyfriend is taller than you, so you expect him to let you stand in front of him at concerts so you can see (because he is a gentleman, and because you expect him to do it) - Your boyfriend is only allowed to make way for you. If your boyfriend were to let people other than you stand in front of him so they could see, you would no longer consider him a gentleman Popular opinion: you're just a selfish person

by schillermaryse 8 months ago

To summarize my position : • Tall people shouldn't feel obligated to move to make a short person have a better view if they like their spot. And if a short person asks and a tall person says no that's fair. • I'm 5'6 which is average • my boyfriend stands in front of me at concerts because I don't weigh much and I like him to protect me and he wants to do that for me. • my boyfriend would never be rude or mean to another person but if we are on a date at a concert obviously he's going to put me first

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Except he can't keep people from getting in front of him so you're either lying or delusional

by Adept-Junket-644 8 months ago

Yes he can by putting his hands on the rail lol

by Anonymous 8 months ago

If there aren't seats you need lighten up and act you live in the real world. General admission is general admission. If you dont want people in front of you, you need be all the way to gate and then you hold on to the gate

by Adept-Junket-644 8 months ago

Is this a thing?

by Anonymous 8 months ago

It's not. I'm short and I've never done this or seen a fellow short person do this. I'll move into obviously open spaces to get a better view, but I'd never squeeze or shove someone aside. I usually suck it up if a tall person is in front of me, but they tend to be fairly courteous as well and glance back and see me there and let me move in front of them or make sure I can see ok.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Honestly tall people have so many more advantages and get laid way more so the least they can do stand in the back of the concert. I doubt OP would ever date a short dude smh

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Nah imma stand in front of you next time

by Anonymous 8 months ago

That'll be super rude, considering you probably get laid more than the average guy that's 5'7

by Anonymous 8 months ago

That's not true short people get more leg room in planes and public transport so they have advantages just as much as tall people

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I'd rather let go of my leg room in public transport and planes if it meant I can be considered more attractive due to my height.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

A lot of women don't care about height you just have to date someone who isn't superficial about that kind of stuff

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Would you date a short dude who's ugly?? I seriously doubt it. Physical features matter more than people like to admit. It's not superficial, it's just human nature

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Actually I have dated a guy like that and he was the angriest meanest man I've ever known

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Nah they don't get as much

by Fadelaidan 8 months ago

don't get arena "seating" unless you're willing to face the risk of tall people being in front of you.

by Hester52 8 months ago

Exactly!!! I have no idea how this could actually be controversial

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I (6'5" now, maybe 6'3" at the time) went to a concert festival with my mom (6') when I was in high school, and there was one band in particular I was really excited to see, so as they were setting up for their set. she guided me right up to the stage. Once they started I looked behind me and saw all the shorter people behind us. I mentioned something to her about how maybe it was rude for us to be in front of everyone else. Her response? "It's not your fault you're taller than everyone else, and it's not your fault you're better at going to concerts than them, either." Love you, mom!

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Ur mom should be more considerate about everyone's experience in a concert

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Or everyone else could have shown up before the set started to get a sweet spot for themselves.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Wow you think short people should leave early and arrive early because they're short. Wow you must really think short people should sacrifice more time than tall people then. How entitled smh

by Anonymous 8 months ago

No, I just think if you want to be in the front, you should arrive early.

by Anonymous 8 months ago

I love this for you!! How kind of her

by Anonymous 8 months ago

Personally I think security needs to escort all tall people in the back of a concert to ensure everyone can see
