Height standards are not that big as it looks like .....

So I(19f) was talking to my male cousin(19m) and he was ranting about how he is not getting a gf just because of his height which is 5'7 . I then asked him why does he thinks that , he said girls cribble too much about his height and then I asked him why does he think that did any girl told him that to his face or he overheard someone then what he told me raised a deeper issue . He was getting all of this from Instagram and from guys around him who were getting the same from insta . It was the problem of the content he was consuming which is a rage bait type of content which is intentionally made to make feel people less about themselves and this is the kinda content that Instagram pushes . And also the guys around him prolly insecure about their own height making him feel lesser while projecting their insecurities on him . I have never met a single girl in my life who was very hell bent on the height factor , yeah it's attractive based on the conventional, I repeat conventional beauty standards but love is more deeper than all the conventions .

No sane person will tolerate a toxic red flag guy just coz he is tall . Most of the friends i have want a guy who is 2-3 inches taller than them and they are all 5'4 -5'6 and honestly 2-3 inches taller than them is pretty much the average height of men .What's your opinion on this have you ever faced such things irl or if there were what were the instances
