Statistical & Anecdotal Proofs that 6 Feet is Ideal, Taller is not ideal
IN Japan, this "ceiling effect" ie the "too tall effect" is replicated perfectly, they say 176-180 cm is too tall. Since average in Japan is about 172 (officially), then we add 4 cm, the ideal height in UK/USA is 180-184 cm:
Source: http://woman.mynavi.jp/article/140125-27/
QuoteHigh height, high salary, and high education, also known as the “three highs” has been regarded as the ultimate combination in Japanese society. However, many women now say that average is the best, so let’s see if this new way of thinking correlates with height. We asked 736 people just what they think.
Q. What’s your ideal height for a man? (Choose one)
1st 176-180cm (5’77” to 5’9″) 37.4%
2nd 171-175cm (5’6″ to 5’74”) 29.4%
3rd 181-185cm (5’94” to 6′) 17.9%
4th 166-170cm (5’44” to 5’57”) 7.3%
5th 186-190cm (6’1″ to 6’2″) 2.7%
■ 176-180cm
・”I’m lacking in height, but I think 180cm and higher look the best” (34, male / IT)
・”My ideal is to have to look up to him when he’s talking” (30, female / programmer)
・”A little on the tall side, but I think it doesn’t stand out too much, so it’s just right” (29, female / finance)
■ Bonus: do men look up to taller men?
・186-190cm “I need at least this much for a fair fight with those around the world” (34, male / education)
・190-195cm “Taller men overseas are around this area” (50, male / IT)
・Over 201cm “I’ve read anecdotes that Confucious was 209cm tall” (37, male / construction)
The most popular opinion was a man that approached 180cm. It seems that women want to be able to look up to men a little, and for men it’s the preferred height to dress fashionably. Men are getting taller as the years pass, so it’s possible that the ideal height may keep growing.

You know what? I am getting sick of this forum and do not wish to contribute anymore. I mean, the members here have distorted mindset of what the ideal male height is. It is impossible to change their mind. I have shown like what, 5 sources? I do not think I should even continue my diary to help these people who probably have psychological issues get taller. This is getting creepy by the minute. Every search I done for "ideal male height" says 6 feet. Then we have creepy users who say, no no, that's not ideal, but if that's not ideal then what is ideal and What is YOUR SOURCE? All this thing about affordable surgery in Russia and China is not helpful and I do not wish to contribute anymore, until I get an apology.
Couldn't you use a little more space in between your paragraphs ITsMyLife? Ive yet to fill up my daily quota of pointless scrolling.
Edit: An apology for what, disagreement? I know Singapore isn't exactly the paragon of democratic debate but in this forum people have different opinions sometimes, you either deal with it -or you don't.

But, I am closer to the truth than the other guy. Okay maybe not apology, but at least show me the data that goes THE OTHER WAY 
I feel that this is a pointless debate, because, his mind is already fixed: he is already fixated on the idea that, ah, I want 188 m, and that is ideal. The point is, that is NOT ideal in terms of what women think (every single source says that). It may be the ideal height for him to feel tall, but he has to ACKNOWLEDGE that the DATA says that six feet is the ideal, not taller
Anyway or how, I am creeped out by how many people here apparently have mental issues and have stopped my diary:

I sincerely thank you for validating my research, at least.

Anyway, what have you got to say about my replies? 
I'm only here to finish this business. Once this business is up, I will leave this forum. This is a waste of time. I was reading about basketball shooting techniques and coming back here to post because I read absurd comments.
If I help (some members are probably, as was admitted) mentally unwell people, I think, I have not served my purpose on this forum. I am just encouraging more insanity (going for LL surgery, and suffering so much, for no purpose. they have BDD- always thinking they are too short).So I close my diary.

lol, glad to see that your penis has grown back now, the last thing we need is another Mangina
if itsmylife was a politician, he would have been a dictator, who tries to impose his vision and force people to follow it.
Let's believe you're right.So what?There are many guys who still want to be 185 cm or more, all the studies/surveys won't change anything to the fact that many of us want to do ll to be atleast 183 cm.

I want to be 185 cm or more. Professor Bagirov says I can safely do another 4 cm on my femurs for the perfect proportions (tibia vs femurs). (then I will be 187 cm at a cheap 6500 euros which I can afford, and probably 5-6 months) ... But I am limited by the DATA which shows that women do not like guys above six feet AS MUCH. (yes they still like 6'1, 6'2 etc but it is not preferable).
Furthermore, since I am bisexual, I might go back to guys (though I am happily with a girl now). It appears that most straight/gay/bi guys I have asked, they say 183 is too tall.
With a guy-guy attraction, height is much more crucial cos' the guy can easily tell your height (eg, a 170 cm guy can tell that you are 178 cm vs 183 cm). So I don't wanna be too tall.
I am f-ing worried about this issue, and I have YET TO SEE DATA which goes the other way. I used to think taller is better, now I think, hey, maybe NOT.
I know the answer to your question its my life.
its actually a good question............ but I cant really be fked answering it again.
I want to be 1.9 metre more than anyone here, trust me, I play basketball.
But I don't wanna be 1.9 metre and be shunned by guys and girls whom I like.
I am just trying to educate people here, that there is a CEILING EFFECT. This ceiling effect may be worse in Asia (Japan, Singapore, etc) but FOR SURE it is there.
Probably if you lengthen to Barrack Obama's height (185) or George Bush's height (182) it is fine, but HOW TALL is TOO TALL?
Even if I reach 1.9 and become a saint (ie, don't care about what guys and girls think about me), it might be difficult for me to find a job even (see the thread, on whom you will hire. nobody voted "very tall guy")
Yes I want to be tall, yes I have the time, patience and money to do so (as we speak, as I am lengthening, I can earn 5000/month). BUT I HAVE TO FACE the COMPLICATIONS, ie, girls will think, hey you're too tall.
