People over 5 9"

Quote from: FrankGarrett on May 25, 2014, 05:21:49 PMHas it ever occurred to that some people want to be tall, you stupid retard? The only people who make statements like this are insecure men who envy the height of taller members. Also, 5' 9" is short in several European countries, so they should not have to accept being a couple of inches below the average height of their country just because some insecure pussy is having an angsty moan about taller leg-lengtheners the Internet.

Stop discriminating, get over it and stop being a bítch.

I don't think he was discriminating.  I think if you are 5'5" then being just 2 or 3 inches taller is a huge difference and 5'9" sounds amazing.  I can see why someone doesn't understand getting LL at an average height in many countries.

Calling someone a stupid and a pussy without considering their point of view is stupid.  And calling someone a retard??  Well it's pretty easy to conclude that you FrankGarrett are a piece of s**t?

Stay classy Frank!

Well said!  We are all here because of the same reason, we want to be taller no matter what our height is.  I like this forum where we all share the same goal and are passionate about it.  It is a bit like a big family where people won't judge (unless you're a cry baby like Leechlet!) jk but will support you and give you advice the best they can!  Even though I'm on the tall side, I perfectly understand Dream's reaction!

I presume that we are all adults here so everyone is entitled to their own opinion and open to debate.  Name calling is not only childish but offensive.  You will see that politeness goes a long way in life.

No matter what your height is, any guy that wasn't happy with his height and had the balls to do LL is a winner in my book!

English is my 2nd language, I am french Canadian so I apologize if I there was any mistakes!

I understand why truly short people get frustrated with people around average height who are considering this. However there is a difference between taking out loans and going to india and having a substantial savings and going to a top tier surgeon.

At around my height, 5 8, I view it as a near essential to add to my height, as it is tangible how it would influence my life in every respect, even perhaps one day returning on the significant financial investment.

It is a very desirable luxury at near average, and a necessity for those well below it, I think.

Da hell@Frank response....

Solid 5'9" is decent is most of the world except some Eastern and Northern Euro countries.

Starting at 5'9" in one of those countries, I would consider CLL, since the neurosis would be the same as it is in the U.S. being 2.5 inches below the average. Using 1x CLL to get 5'9" however and then wanting another surgery = gotta wonder If the recovery, financial, time, pain, and proportion returns are worth it in the short and long-term.

But some people still have height neurosis even when they're average, or in the 80th percentile (one guy was 5'11" and got CLL).... So it's relative to how you feel in the end. Does it make sense for an average guy to want to be taller? Yes. Does it make sense for him to want to go through CLL for it tho? Not from a logical POV. But neither does a thin girl feeling like she's fat and making herself vomit, or the musclebound guy at the gym feeling like he's not bulked up enough.

Well the motivation with the second surgery is like this: "I already wrecked my athletic performance, left leg hurts too, might as well add a few more inches/centimeters to make it worth all the pain." And then there's the counter idea: "But I can still fairly do X, Y (for me it's dance & fitness), why should I risk that?" My left leg hurts when I stand up for too long. I enjoy the pain but for most people it would be annoying, even disturbing. I can bear it for now, I'm sure it'll go away but I'd be able to bear it for a lifetime, but do I need more of that pain? Do I need to inflict more trauma to my body now that height is not a significant disadvantage anymore?

And then you make your own, rational decision.

I'm the sort of guy who prefers physical pain to emotional pain. I've already made the rational decision for myself.

I'm 157cm and I don't understand why people above 170cm wants CLL...

Edit Post

Well here it goes:

157cm wants to be 170
170cm wants to be 178
178cm wants to be 183, 6'0ft
183cm wants to be 188, 6'2ft

and so on!  Unless you're 193cm, 6'4" we all want to be taller for various reasons!

While I understand it, I still consider it as a costly luxury rather than a necessity. I'm okay with luxury, but I admit it is what it is.

I can see how it could seem like a necessity to some people.  I'm 5'6" and I know that it has held me back but it doesn't seem like a necessity.  When I see another male who is 5'3" or less I can't imagine how it has been for them, but it seems more like a necessity.
