Everyone basically saying that you can fuck yourself and should never drive again is a bit of a dick at best. It’s ofc perfectly fine to not want to drive. But if you do have to, or if you end up wanting to in the future, it’s not like this was your only chance and you can never again learn. If you want/have to get back to it, please practice with someone experienced in a calm and safe environment. Pay for an instructor, go to and empty parking lot, etc. Take as much time as you need before you’re good enough to drive in traffic again.

Also 172/5’8 and same, several times! Even from me who were still taller than me! Also dated someone who didn’t care and was 175/5’9 and when we went out together and my shoes made me taller than him, we’d get an average of like 10 comments, all from men, about it. Lots of friends have told me their only slightly taller ex bf wouldn’t ‘let’ them wear heels.

Also, on a dating app, I’d get about 50/50 matches from masc and fem people when I didn’t list my height. When I did list it, I’d get mostly fem ones, and all the masc ones were tall. And fewer matches overall.

Im 27, very first birth year for gen z. And I’m a teacher and this is a multiple times a day occurrence. Also, them laughing at my slang terms that I don’t even realise are slang as I’m using them. And the scary bit is, some of them are 18-20, so still firmly gen z too.

Some older people have somewhat similar smartphone behavior as teenagers. Those of us born in the ~80s/90s kinda grew up along with technology. A lot of older people adopted it when they were already adults, so they didn’t slowly grow used to it the way we did. And younger people started using tech when it was already this super intransparent easy to use thing that it is now. So those groups behave somewhat similarly around it: mobile games, a lot of social media use, and, for some reason, also heavy emoji use. I guess it might be because it’s new and cool to them and they never used :-) etc?

Mind you, this is far from universal. Just a bit of a pattern I’m noticing. Also, I don’t really view you, a gen x person, as older, so idk.

Sorry to be that guy, but be careful with these. Everything will seem darker, so you won’t shy away from the sun as much, but you still get UV in your eyes, which can damage them. They look really cool though!
