If you are 5'6 or above, you insuccess with women might not be due to height

"Height and body mass are traits that may be useful cues about health, social status, and heritable fitness. These qualities are valued by women, suggesting that tall men would have more sex partners, whereas short men would have fewer. Surprisingly, however, taller men did not report substantially more sex partners than men other than very short men. This was surprising, given women’s clear preferences for relatively taller men in Western cultures. These findings raise interesting questions regarding the mating strategies of men with average to somewhat below average heights, and how well-stated preferences for height map on to actual sexual behavior."

This is the conclusion of survey. In other words, in this survey the stated preference that women want tall men did not actually show up in the data, and they can't understand why.

"Further, men between 5′7″ and 6′3″ (170–191 cm) varied little in whether they had more than 5 partners, had more than 14 partners, engaged in extra-pair sex, or were currently single."

Being 5'7.5 myself, I found this part interesting. 5'7 is a weird height...

"Which means, dont do this in order to be tall but in order to be average... "

I agree with that. Sounds weird, but just being average would sure be good enough for me... having said that, I think there is more of an issue than just getting sex which might just be an indirect marker for being taken seriously in general? Agree that if you are average, or tall already - why bother?

Do the women in here have a different perspective, I wonder?

i dont understand why people who are already 175 cm above still do it

I truly believe that adding height will help you overall with getting women, not because of the actual height gained (which of course is helping), but because of the highier self-confidence that will come automatically with it. All people who underwent LL and got to average or tall height (that I have spoken to) reported a huge boost to one's self image and confidence... I am sure that this is the main reason for the overall improvment in social-life and mating success.

 Or in short, the better quality of life is not because of the added height but because of the permanent boost in self confidence (That I am not sure that will come in the same amount to average and above average people who do it).
