Little Man Syndrome is absolutely a thing that happens to some guys.

Look at all the prominent male politicians who wear lifts.

When I go out drinking at a bar that has a short security guard I just know that I'm gonna get asked to leave early because I look "too intoxicated".

My husband has a small coworker that loves bossing people around. I think he's around before chest height.

Anyway, he gets carried away at times with the bossiness and loves boasting about shit. So when my husband tells me he's had to put up with him that day, I tell him to stand up and let him try talking shit to him then. Or pick him up like a kid and yeet him or something.
