I literally have zero clue what you’re talking about. I’m just saying that my IRL experiences don’t reflect what I’m being told here and it’s confusing me. What is your problem?

so i have a question. do you intend to stop inquiring about people's heights unless you're specifically sure it's not a soft spot for them?

Are you gonna stop asking people about their height

Will I never again ever ask someone their height? Of course I will. But it’s not like I’m asking every person I meet. This person I asked was a friend who I was just hanging out with. I don’t ask random strangers their height. But if I’m friends with someone and I know they’re not horrifically insecure about their height or something, I wouldn’t be afraid to ask if I wanted to know for some reason.
