society need to worship short men.
short fragile framed men used to be worshipped in places in china and india before they were modernized starting in the late 19th century. it was a symbol of high status. coz being short and weak was a signal that the man didnt have to go to the field and work, since agricultural activities were associated with low class peasants. being short and weak meant the men was a rich merchant, a scholar, a beaurucrat, a nobleman, etc. any activity that was indoor and didnt require any strength.
china's last emperor was kept intentionally short and weak. Gandhi was also short and weak, about 5'4 and very underweight.
