How distorted do u think are the members' worldview of the importance of height?

Quote from: programdude on February 18, 2015, 11:59:49 PMPeurtorican- From my experiences it really isn't true that height matters so much that you are discredited. at least at 5 8 I got a lot more girls than most guys who were taller than me.

Itsmylife- It depends. If 6 ft is an unrealistic goal then yes. I want 6 foot as well, but part of LL is accepting your limitations.

Wearing insoles with women does seem awkward. The important thing is becoming comfortable in your own skin and not needing them. I think in many ways the process of LL is actually healthier than the somewhat demented mindset of needing to always have thing stuffed in your shoes to be happy with yourself, and constantly worried about them coming off.

I totally agree. I hated myself cause I was a lie, at least with the insoles in..... I felt so insecure. It was so bad. Perhaps if I did not wear insoles I would have come to term with my height. So insoles are.. kinda evil? But at 6 feet, even if I wore small insoles, I will still feel confident about my height as statistically I am tall in Asia.

Nopp, it contains human growth hormone. look it up before you speak you idiot.

You have bad grammar which is why I think you're on drugs? Sometimes your sentences are totally illogical. But I will explain.

There are many six foot youngsters here.. I wish I can put the figure at 10%. But it is probably 15-20% of young people.

I live in Singapore, not China, or India where everyone is shorter due to malnutrition.
Here, 180 cm+ is a common sight (maybe 1.5 to 2 out of 10 in town) for young people below 30.
178 cm is even more common in youngsters(3 or 4 out of 10).
Basically, I suspect that, in Singapore, the short guys are pulling the average down.
I don't think 6 feet is odd at all in Singapore. There are in fact quite a few (quite common) 6'1 and 6'2 in university.

Quote from: programdude on February 18, 2015, 05:20:44 AMI think the members get a bit demented when they get caught up in things like fighting ability etc.

I think those who get obsess with being 6 2 are a bit out of touch, or simply haven't had one operation to see life at 5 10- 5 11 is not so bad.

I think those who are around or above 5 7 and blame failures on women are setting themselves up for MAJOR disappointment when they realize height is not the end all be all. If you are 5 6 or lower I do think there will be a tangible difference in this field, but the expectation that women will start throwing themselves at you is deluded.

I do agree height helps for business and confidence, but I don't think it would outweigh the costs of going to one of the top dr.'s as an investment.

This is spot on.

I agree that you can experience height disphoria at any height. But it's really under around 5'7" where it's a tangible issue, and not just one in your head. As a guy who used to be under 5'6" I can tell you this much is true. I've never heard of 5'7" and up guys get called short. 5'8" is safer, but to me, 5'7" isn't too bad and I feel like guys around that height (as long as they're not too stocky) just manage to dodge most of the heightism that's out there. If I were 5'7", I would've seriously questioned doing LL. 5'7" is still taller than most women, even if barely.

shows your lack of intelligence when you call someone an idiot without any evidence to back up your claim, you can't just order people to go read stuff you haven't read yourself, there's billions of short people that eat GMO modified foods and they are below average.

nonsense. why would only GM foods have human growth hormones?
I mean even normal chicken, can be injected with growth hormones to make them grow faster? and given how exorbitant the price is, I don't think they even use human-compatible hormones
and I don't see how GM-modified vegetables can make hormones

Soy apparently makes hormones because one of my acquaintances is not allowed to drink cow milk or eat soy by her Doctor.

soy will turn you gay. it doesn't actually make hormones technically. cant elaborate it will go off topic.

QuoteI don't see how GM-modified vegetables can make hormones

they don't make hormones (the vegetables), but your statement is wrong. they can make anything.

they have corn which is genetically modified to grow the aids virus, and if you eat it you get aids. basically the sky is the limit.

side note: the guy who runs this program for corn with the aids virus also runs a massive charity to give "corn" to Africans.

yep hes a eugenicists also.

sad world.
