Napoleon Bonaparte was rumored to be 5'3 while in actuality he was closer to 5'6. By thus logic, Shakespeare was likely 6'9.

it's no so much he didn't exist and moreso that he wasn't the author of the playa. we have no plays written in his hand much like any other illiterate, the only writing he left behind were signatures (not all spelled the same way). Also he never taught his children to read or write. Probably was some rich duke or something who didn't want to embarrass himself by putting his name of a play (very low class at the time) and so hired a front man

this is further proof that the majority of shakespeare's corpus was ghost written by danish cryptoterrestrials
all the signs are there; the height, that odd skull shape, tenuous grasp of the english language, and being danish

I'm 5'7 and have never had trouble, but I may be an outlier as I have a genuinely handsome face and live in a fairly rural area where the pickings are slim as it is.
I have noticed, however, when I meet a girl for a date and they haven't seen me irl prior, that they always say they expected me to be taller. Literally every time. I guess because they innately associate height with attractiveness, still a bit off-putting though. Imagine what would happen if you met a girl for a date for the first time and you said, "I thought your tits would be bigger."
