My only thought on this right now is that given how hard it is to measure your tibia vs femur ratio without taking an x-ray, that proportions are going to vary quite a bit from person-to-person. How much muscle and fat are on your legs, where the muscle insertion points are, the size of your feet and your natural stance will all impact how an extended segment will look.

True but your not going to find the answer to that on here which is my point. And there's nothing you can do until you sit with an EXPERT and go through it. anything beforehand is just creating a dysmorphia to something that's not even an issue at the current moment. There's a difference between concern and obsessively worrying about something that may not happen. Most don't even have the money. 95% of people on this forum will not get LL. Its hard to hear but its true. Don't spread the insecurity to others preventing them from being positive.
and Again, Most have abnormal body shape. So whatever size you become you have to realize your not making yourself until the perfect human. You cant increase SH, foot size..etc so just be happier that you're taller.

I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying it's a lot more complicated than just the femur to tibia ratio. I don't read this sub-forum very often anymore as I tend to think the people who obsess over proportions are also the least likely to actually get LL.

There's no way this is true right? I was kinda worrying about how abnormally long my legs would be but after reading that, I feel like we'd practically be the same cuz I have a 28-29 inch torso too and if I were to get LL of 5 inches...it'd put me at his proportions too, just with a 1-2 inch shorter torso lmao.
