My (5'5 guy) proportions vs ideal 6 feet guy's proportions (Interesting read)

Edit Post

tilli:

Dude, your legs are already fcking long relative to your total height. 99 / 173 = 0.57 so I can imagine how you look without clothes, LOL. Women should be jealous of you, not kidding.  I'm afraid LL is not for you and you already have an acceptable height so why bother?

Tibia should be about 80% of femur length, so in 45:55 ratio. For example, if my tibia to femur ratio is already 45:55, in order to get the same ratio post double LL of 11.5 cm total, I have to split that 11.5 cm into 45:55 ratio for tibia and femur, respectively. For tibia it is  5.2 cm and for femur it is 6.3 cm. For aesthetics and biomechanics point of view, it would be the best split if one already has 45:55 tib-femur ratio.

Bother because i am in Germany, where the average is quite above my 173cm.
No, my tibias+femurs summed up are currently 89cm. I just said, in case i would lengthen 10cm, to reach the infamous 6 feet in total, i would be at 99cm legs. Which would result in a LBR of 0.54 by the way - which i found to be rated as still attractive, according to some studies, which i could link tomorrow after getting sleep hehe. I know, your argument is to focus on trunk vs legs, makes sense to me. Still, i dont wanna fall into the alien category, how some of you call it here
I guess i will just end up measuring more genetic freaks like Henry these days and then decide. I appreciate your input by the way!

And maybe one more side note, my wingspan is 181cm. So maybe i am just one of those freaks

My bad, I read it as 99 instead of 89. 

So, your LBR is 0.514 right now which is already in the perfect zone. After 10 cm you won't be able to tuck in shirts but if you want to be that leggy it's fine, I just don't find it attractive on males and neither the majority of women according to studies. 0.50-0.51 is the perfect LBR for males.

BTW, Henry Cavill has normal trunk size but a little longer legs relative to trunk. He just have short arms and small hands and it's pretty much obvious to anyone with functioning eyes.
