The Science of Height Discrimination
DATING INEQUALITY
It's not your imagination. Research has shown that a 5'8" man, on average, needs to earn an extra $138,000 annually to match the perceived attractiveness of a man at 6'0". This stark contrast highlights the unfair biases based on height in the dating world. Shorter individuals face hurdles in their romantic pursuits, unfairly judged before they even get a chance to showcase their true selves. Lombaris are an investment in your dating life.
ONLINE INEQUALITY
Modern dating has become a realm where first impressions are often based on superficial factors. If anything, the inherent height bias is most pronounced online as can be seen with Bumble filters showing that only 15% of women were wiling to consider a man 5'8" or shoter. As the dating landscape continues to shift more online, this inequality will only grow.
CAREER STATURE
Picture two individuals with identical qualifications walking into a job interview. One is taller than the other. Despite their similar skills and expertise, studies have shown that the taller candidate is more likely to be offered the job and potentially earn a higher salary. It's not about competence; it's about height. This unfair bias in the workplace not only limits opportunities but perpetuates inequality.
CAREER ADVANCEMENT
Height can lead to unconscious biases in the workplace impacting job promotions. Research proves that taller individuals may be perceived as more capable or authoritative, influencing career advancement opportunities based on physical stature alone. With an extra centimetre adding, on average 1.3% to income, an investment in Lombardis pays off.
