Inferiority Complex among short men

From Men'sHealth magazine in the January/Februay 2008 issue, page 104, titled "Why Height Doesn't Matter", the article talked about how short men(men under 5'9") must overcompensate for being short. They have outgoing personalities, are very smart, are very active, and do things that takes away the attention of being short. In the chapter dealing with Personalities, we try to overcompensate for our short comings. In Chapter 11, Maslow's growth theory viewed personality as the expression of basic human tendancy toward growth and self-actualization. Maslow talked about growth orientation in which people do not focus on what they are missing but rather what they are, what they have, and what they can do. This applies to short men.
