Isn’t that like saying the majority of Chinese men is disabled? Must have been a Chinese Becky.

Yeah that's a little excessive. Chinese girls usually say guys under 170cm are disabled, 170-175 is short, 176-179 is acceptable, and 180 or taller is good. Given that you can exaggerate a few cm anyway (especially around short girls) it's pretty easy to just say you're 180 if you're almost there. I have noticed a surprising number of 170cm+ Chinese girls though.. but I suppose I only notice the hot ones, so they probably lean toward being taller anyway. Probably can't get away with pretending to be 180+ with them unless you actually are.

Actually If u r 175cm tall you can eliminate the 'honor' of being disable...Cuz even u r measured 175cm in the morning but u r 177cm or so tall with shoes...3cm is a delicate distance from 177cm to 180cm so that girls will automatically see you as 180cm tall.
If u r 170-174cm tall you can lie to them that u r 175cm tall precisely Cuz of shoes...Still 3cm lies can't be looked through...
Below 170cm as a Chinese he definitely feels short,which entitles Chinese girls to call them 'the disable'...

Fortunately, I’m still considered handsome and regularly receive compliments about my looks—and, most importantly, I’m married to the woman of my dreams—BUT I still feel super insecure about my height, especially at work. Only two of my male co-workers are shorter than me, and they’re both in their fifties—all others are > 6’2” (unfortunately, I’m not exaggerating). And even though my height is not preventing me from being promoted etc., it simply sucks that all the guys my age are much taller than me.
Just as an additional note, I‘m well aware that many people here on this forum are in a worse position than me and that my height neurosis may seem ridiculous to some of you.
I just dunno why some people had insulted you...Everybody is entitled to do LL as long as everything permits...
And I wanna know until now are you still desiring to do LL?If so,I think your wife won't be pleased because she might think you don't give enough love to her or you won't feel inferior about height.What's worse,this surgery is really costly about time and money.Half yr or even 1 yr far away from her and $50k or $100k or even more from family savings...They won't resent your wife not very much.
It’s weird that standards in China seem to be higher than in many European countries where the average height is much higher. Most women I know just want their partner to be taller than them but don’t have any specific height requirements. I even know a few couples where the woman is taller than the man.
Thanks! I’m still undecided. Although every other aspect of my life is perfect (perfect wife and child, perfect job), I still hate being shorter than almost everyone around me. But I’m fully aware that I’d gain almost nothing from the surgery, except a massive confidence boost (I used to be pretty confident back in my home country but have lost much of my confidence due to being surrounded by giants all the time). I know many users on this forum think I’m crazy, but most of them just don’t know what it’s like to live in a country like the Netherlands.

One major thing you should know about these users is that they do LL for GIRLS.So since you owned a romantic partner there ain't need for you to do LL anymore.Actually that's also my point of view but I think it's necessary to respect everyone's willing.
As for why Chinese girls' standards for boys' heights are higher than European countries..I think that's because of the imbalanced ratio of Chinese males and females..And you know,East Asia culture or something made it important to assess one's appearance,including his or her height.If it weren't for imbalanced gender ratio...I think no matter one is female or male if he or she is short,it'll be hard to get double. 
The closest I ever got to height discrimination was my 5'11" friend making fun of the abysmal height difference between us and calling me short.
Where I'm from a lot of men are 185cm and above, they never talk about height. The only people that do are guys less than 183cm who are are only a few cm taller than the people they call short. It always makes me smile as it just exposes their own insecurities about their own height.
