Tall Man Syndrome

Opposite of Small Man Syndrome. It is where tall men (probably over 5'12) who have probably done nothing in their life except be dicks and failures to society, are seen as superior by either some people or themselves. This is in spite of figures like Napoleon Bonaparte, who conquered a lot of Europe, was only around 5'6-5'7.

While shorter men doing great things might be seen as compensating, that is much better than someone with Tall Man Syndrome as someone with this affliction does nothing at all except disappoint everyone, especially women in bed.

There are two kinds of people in this spectrum. One does great things like lead England and the allies through World War 2 and being a distinguished historical figure, while the other got genetically lucky and nothing else.

"Damn. Look man, I may be short, but I can actually pay my rent on time and hold a relationship. You suffer from Tall Man Syndrome! A big case of it too!"

Short Man: "I just conquered half of Europe!"
Random person: "You are probably just compensating."
Short Man: "Maybe. How's (Insert Tall Man)? Still crying in his parents basement?"
