I think the point (which is evidenced by statistics albeit collected in an online environment) is that, if you're short, you need to be extra-masculine and extra-successful to be considered attractive to women. And in an online environment your masculine bearing is hard to communicate - before people were forced to communicate online a short guy could make up for it by being extra masculine in his demeanor.

Your other comment in this thread resonates with me in that, because I am short, I have had to develop a masculine bearing, and it may have also contributed to my financial success (although it probably matters less because I am a gay man). I have a friend, a gay guy who is 5'3", triple-black-belt, very masculine, and would be considered extra hot by most gay men (well, that was before middle age set in).

I think a lot of these online fem-boys are pussies because they are lazy, but even if they could become more manly they would still have a hard time communicating it on an online environment. Maybe that's why they give up? They could at least muscle up, that's easy to see in pictures.

Well done to you and your friend. I wouldn’t mind dating a shorter guy. Then again, I don’t think gay men care about height as much as straight women do. And yes, a lot of femboys wouldn’t be femboys if they spent more time socialising offline, but I can understand that it is hard for people with social anxiety.
