  My point is you got the causation backwards.

  Women generally have a stronger preference for taller men, than men have a preference for shorter women.

  But you framed the entire scenario as being caused by men.

  Its… also amazing that you yourself date someone 20cm shorter than you.

  So, what, if you yourself were 5cm shorter than you are, and your partner was 5cm shorter than she is… would that be such a difference that the woman would now be ‘child sized’?

  Short people do just exist, the image is an intentional joke making fun of height difference that is present in this consensual relationship.

  You describe this as jailbait despite the woman looking like she’s in her upper 20s or lower 30s in age.

  Like, not to be rude to the woman in the picture, but how many under 21 or under 18 girls… have forehead wrinkles, bags under their eyes?

    I’ll admit, jailbait by definition does not fit in, so it was incorrect of me to use that word, but I’ll stand by the idea that it does feel weird to me in a way that resembles liking young girls.

    Answer me this - is it perfectly fine/morally right of me to watch a porn of tall dude doing it with a very short one? NSFW, but here is a mild porn example, I’ve personally seen more extreme ones; NSFW OPEN AT YOUR OWN RISK

    Personally, watching this makes me slightly uncomfortable. No one else, really?

      You didn’t address it, so I gotta ask, did you read the part about causation at all?

      Thank you for seeing and saying that.

      but I’ll stand by the idea that it does feel weird to me in a way that resembles liking young girls.

      I mean… very broadly, yes, sure, I get that, but I feel like you have to ignore the details and context.

      But I will also grant that the non actual OP image, that is of higher quality, makes it more clear that the woman is likely not a child or very young adult, than the blurrier OP image does.

      Answer me this - is it perfectly fine/morally right of me to watch a porn of tall dude doing it with a very short one?

      Well frankly that’s a complicated question, mostly because: What exactly do you mean by ‘very short one?’

      Apologies if I am wrong but it seems like English may not be your first language, and that that might be the cause of a lot of the kerfuffle here.

      If you mean an actual dwarf, someone with dwarfism, well then that, to me, becomes a discussion of basically… is it more the case that such a person basically has few other valid employment options by way of discrimination, or is it more the case that… they’re fully consenting adults, making their own choices, which they understand or are in control of?

      If you mean a person who is not a dwarf, but is simply fairly short… I basically still have the same kind of answer, I guess, just with their likely being a good deal less discrimination against someone who is simply short, but not a dwarf?

      Personally, as a matter of personal preference, I would not be interested in porn with dwarves, and yeah I probably would be weirded out a bit between an extreme height mismatch with non dwarves…

      But ‘being weirded out’ and ‘morally endorsing or condoning something’ are not the same thing to me.

      Lots of people do and enjoy things that I do not, that I find weird, but … I don’t think they’re de facto morally bad just because I find it weird.

      Because I know that that all works in reverse as well: I’m into things many other people find weird or strange, but like, I’m not harming anyone.

      Frankly, I just don’t like to watch any kind of porn where anyone is getting just utterly physically dominated by another person.

      I don’t like porn where a guy will like, insult or or degrade or very physically forcefully slap any part of a woman, or that is styled as if its the gals boss or something… that turns me off.

      But, some people are into both or either of those things.

      ---

      Sorry if this is kind of a non answer, but I guess the short (lol) version would be:

      Such things generally yes do make me some amount of uncomfortable, but me being comfortable is not the same thing as something being morally condemnable.

      Are these things moral?

      Basically, thats a pretty complicated question to me, and I’m honestly not totally sure how I feel about that.

        You’re right, English is my third language. Thank you for giving this some thought.

        I have a somewhat wild and likely unprovable theory (let’s see how many downvotes this comment gets) that more than half (60-70%?) of men who like the “very short ones” are also into dwarfism, but don’t quote me on that.
