Like...? Whats going to be easier at over 6ft that isnt at 179cms?
Ego? If you are 179 then LL is not a need, its a want. A luxury you are lucky to have but if you really want to be over 6ft then go for it if it makes you feel better and more confident, I'd rather save and go buy a supercar if I was 179-180cms 

I agree completely with GROWtalORdieTRYING1

Easier? Business and chicks.  You can argue all you want but being taller is like being a hot chick, everything is easier for them.

You see, my life is soo wonderful that Im kinda bored and I need some new challenges so whats better than breaking my bones to spice things up!!

If I eventually have chronic pain and arthritis I suppose that the coolness of LL will fade away but its gonna be a hell of a ride before that!  Yes, yes I know, I can have a hell of a ride at 1m79 but as I said, I need to explore.

I'd take the 2 inches over a supercar every day of the week.  (except on week-ends)

I don't think you realize how hard LL is. It's a long and very painful procedure. It's easy to say I have no problems being unable to walk for 6 months but to live through that, not that easy. It's not like getting your nose operated for cosmetic reason where you will have some pain for a few day, I mean you won't be able to walk for at least 200 days if you do 2 inches. Just try 1 day without walking now to see "how fun" this is gonna be. If you do external, you have to clean your pins all 2 days, which takes at least 1 hour, you have to adjust the struds 3 times a day and you have to wear that   24/7, this is also not fun. And internal nails are something completly diffrent, but they will fk you up big time.

If you think it's worth go for it. But I'm a 100% sure you will regret it if you do it.

don't forget the worst part: sleeping

Well for me its gonna be the G-nail since its fast and less intrusive, the hardest part is actually getting the 100k for it asap, that's partially why I just reoriented in real estate flips.

I don't think that I would have the patience and the cojones to do external, kudos to all of you who did, really!  THAT looks like an infernal ride and I suppose it forges the "mental toughness" accordingly!

Quote from: G-Man on September 03, 2014, 05:36:59 AMYes I hear you.  At a higher height, its like a chick wanting "D" cup when she is already a "C".  It won't make a lot of difference for the risks, time, money and long-term consequences of the surgery.

I admit that at 179.3cm my life is excellent and only one of my gf said that I wasn't tall but no biggie, she was a cheerleader with a sick bod so a bit superficial.  It is clearly not a necessity in my case, I have a good attitude in life and also a nice "joie de vivre".  With LL I will be the same dude, same personality, have the same family and friends, it wont change my life a lot.  Except perhaps, some things will be a bit easier.

But what can I say, I just think that it would be AWESOMELY COOL to be around 2 inches taller and be over 6ft.  Now its up to me to gauge the consequences vs the benefits.

D cups to C cup breasts is like starting war and building peace. All though realistically speaking that's only possible if she gains fat or gets surgery.

Fighting heightism would have to mean getting a large groups of people against height shaming to make a social impact. And at the moment we arent there yet. If there were more people fighting heightism than CLL wouldnt exist. But alot of people dont fight heightism. I dont see CLl as accepting heightism. For some people its about them having a chance at life. I think its still possible to do CLL and fight height shaming.
