Women are using ChatGPT to catch men lying about their height

The dating apps have really made height a big issue. In the pre-app era of dating I don't recall people obsessing over it nearly as much. It's the only metric aside form age that is usually presented as an exact number on the apps, which makes some sense since few other metrics provide such 'useful' information.
Pretty much every other aspect of a person's body can still be obscured with the right clothes and photos (within reason). Which leads to various bits of conventional wisdom, such as men who have a hat in every photo are bald, people who don't show their teeth when the smile have bad teeth, etc. I know that I personally take my job as Photo Detective very seriously, a trait I only acquired from too many dates with people who did not look as good as their photos in real life.
For some reason The Internet decided that 6 feet was an arbitrary limit, under which men could be just ignored.
Imagine men deciding that any woman with smaller than (insert random body measurement we can't affect) could just be filtered out?
