On social platforms, whenever a dating scene is encountered, the height factor has always been a relatively controversial topic.
In recent years, through various interviews, marriage advertisements, and netizen discussions, we can see that boys with a height of 180+ are already the criteria for many girls to choose a mate.
However, everyone's requirements in this regard are different. There are also many people who believe that height is only a plus compared to internal factors such as personality and ability, and it is not so important.
Recently, the e-sports circle has also set off a "bloody storm" because of the topic of height, and even led to the dismissal of a professional e-sports player.
It is understood that the player who was fired was Tanukana, a well-known professional esports player in Japan, who originally belonged to The Cyclops Athlete Gaming, an e-sports team in Osaka.
On February 15, during a live broadcast, Tanukana talked about being picked up by a man about 1 meter 65 meters and asking for contact information.
Tanukana said, "Those who are not yet in 170, please be sure to recognize the fact that 'I have no human rights'. He added that "they should consider doing bone augmentation."
According to a 2018 study, the average height of Japanese men is 170.8 centimeters, and her remarks quickly offended a number of male netizens.
Tanukana's speech was further disseminated on major platforms, and the response was strong, including many well-known people who also stood up to refute it.
At the same time, many related information about Tanukana herself was also exposed.
Eventually pressured, Tanukana responded on a tweet that had been deleted: "Someone pointed out that my livestream contained hate speech. ”
She said it wasn't her intention, she just wanted to express her love for tall men.
In fact, as early as 2020, Tanukana was also criticized for her speech. At the time, she told viewers to "commit suicide" during a live broadcast, saying they were "the garbaget garbage in society".
After the "height" incident broke out, Tanukana's team apologized for the above behavior and announced that her contract had been terminated.
Although Tanukana later issued a more formal apology, it was clearly too late.
Cyclops Athlete Gaming also fired another member after Tanukana was fired, and while no reason was provided for the dismissal, a manager on its team said it was related to the person's "repeated tweets about homophobia (homophobia) and discrimination against people with disabilities."
In the internet age, many people's fame comes too easily, and it is also very easy to destroy their jobs and sources of income.
As a public figure, you should always be vigilant about your own remarks and avoid disasters coming out of your mouth.
