Being short in North America and Europe feels like hell.

For the past few months, I've been seeing a lot of content about height on Reddit and YouTube. I see many comments from people who suffered bullying at school or from their own families for being short, people who say they are treated like trash just for not fitting a beauty standard. This is absurd. I'm Brazilian, and aside from relationships where the standard height for women is 180cm+, I don't have many problems. I've never suffered bullying from anyone, nor have people treated me badly because of my height, and most of the time I'm the shortest person in the room. Gen Z in Brazil is quite tall.
