Sorry but being a male, white, heterosexual, Christian, is more likely to get one persecuted these days than "open doors" that you speak of. And, to add salt to the wound, most of those doors have been "constructed" by the very ones who are now being "shut out" Not sure how "tall" opens any doors unless the door handle is near the top of the door
