Scars is not a big deal,  even I will have a lot of scars because of external femur. And I think it can be avoided through plastic surgery

They can't, especially when you use monorails (like you as you'll do external femurs) which leave big scars.
But I don't care about them. They are my medals for the hard LL battle I gave . I only care to be and feel completely normal (normal gait, no back pains and all these) after I finish my second LL, scars is nothing I care about.

Sure, but why are you obsessing over this? You're 5'8. You don't even live or go through life in the same manner as men 5'5 and under.

Get the plastic surgery if you want it (that helps if done well), but thinking you need things like penile enlargement to date is absolutely crazy.

What a self-righteous, condescending and idiotic statement. "Therapy" will do NOTHING for how other people perceive you as a short man. It may help you feel "less depressed" or whatever about your short height, because therapy is based on brainwashing through suggestion/coping techniques like "cognitive behavioral therapy" (CBT) which is becoming increasingly popular today as a means of addressing anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorders.

It WON'T change anything about how other people, ESPECIALLY women, treat you or short-statured people in general. This is the dumbest thing I've seen you say. Heightism is NOT the victims' faults. How idiotic.

I didn't mean to offend anyone. Sorry about that. It's just that most women can smell any obsession about personal insecurities a mile away. It's better to be short, relaxed and secure than short, fidgety/obsessive and insecure. That's one of the quickest ways people can help themselves here regarding women.

Don't apologize you are 1000% right.

Sadly most people here will never change their minds about their beliefs
At this point I just agree to disagree and to each their own.
It's a waste of energy to try to convince them otherwise, if they want to live their life being obsessed with height then let them.

I appreciate the good intentions though, not all of us have an obsession on this forum

If you are short and secure when it comes to women then you live in denial.
I don't know any clever short man who is secure about his height when it comes to dating.
The only ok short guys I know are some ugly weirdos who never had any woman and don't think they'll ever get any and they are ok with that.
I have never seen any smart short man to not think that he has a drawback on dating.

So extremis is completely right. Even if you feel completely ok with yourself the rejections you'll face won't change and, unless you live in denial, you'll stop feel ok with your short stature.
But we have LL which really changes the rules for any shirt man in the world.
Even a very short man can become average with 2 LLs and most of us can become almost tall with 2 LL (some even with one will be excellent like guys about 5.7-8) so there is no reason at all to feel all this bs that women and society give to short men.

Personally I think that my current life is like an experiment of what a slightly less than average height man can do and how that compares to a relatively tall man (that I'll become after my second LL) who has anything in his life, especially when it comes to the opposite gender, much easier.
Yes I am a little sad for the things that I'd have lost about 80k euros (both my LLs will cost about that), some years of my life and some of my athletic skills to have something that other have from their nature but I am very happy that I'd have lived my life with very different circumstances (from hard to easy) and can understand the life of a short, average and almost tall man.
Only a few people in the world have lived something like that so I really want to have a successful second LL and I will ve very grateful for all that I've been through.
Because the experience of life that an LLer has is something that noone else in the world could feel and that makes us different from all the other people in the world regardless of their heights.

LL is a lifechanging gift if things go well, so people don't try to accept the society's rules about short men, try to getaway from them by LL and live a happy life, much happier that a natural born tall person could have lived.
