Taller people get treated better but the height discrimination starts at under 5'9 officially. Average height people are never discriminated against.

All those things exist but I won't pretend to know whats best for another person's life when the furthest extent of who they are is what I've learned from a few posts on a forum. I'm not qualified to diagnose mental disorders either. Are you?

For some people it is really easy to diagnose that they are mentally unstable.
For someone who does LL at 6 ft, used to wear 4 inches heels and lengthens not only one segment but two, things are pretty easy.
Do you disagree?

I'm not bashing anybody but at 5'9 or above i would never ever considered this surgery really . If any average guy is passing here i'd like too tell him to think more than twice about this . It's very bad what you gonna do to your body . Not saying don't do it ( almost ) , just do it if you feel very very bad cause of your height  . It's a life changing descision after all .

If I were 6' would I do LL? Absolutely not (or so I would think). But I can't say someone is unstable just because they want it at that height. I think it is another level of height dysphoria, yes, but those individuals that are 5' probably think this about those who are 5'6" to some degree.

I am not against giving advice or opinions but there is a lot of talk about absolutes and shaming on this forum which is pretty petty.

Below a certain height your other traits no longer matter. That's how bad being short is honestly.

You forgot to add "in dating" and "for most women, particularly those who are shallow". Otherwise you can have a good life

Men are also shallow. They don't respect short men as much. That's the main reason that I am doing leg lengthening. It's not just for women.

What? Sure, men are shallow as well but besides the obvious difference in raw physical strength, not man has disrespected me because of my height. No here in South America, nor in the US or Italy. You must be doing Something wrong
