Quote from: Sambollio on December 28, 2020, 10:37:33 PMOkay I appreciate you elaborating, I think we actually agree almost 100%. I think I just didn’t like your initial posts’ wording because it felt dismissive. If you are curious, I am exactly average in the US,5’9.5, and I’m getting LL for what I think is a unique reason for my very acceptable height. Have a good day!

You'll be happy for sure, good luck
I wrote hard words just because I don't agree with the thought about the "success-line height", you can be a very successful man even being average or short

I think the best way to look at this is at what height does your stature not hold you back in life?

I believe once you are 5'7-5'8+, your height doesn't really hold you back too much in life, any extra height is just a positive. I'm a bit over 5'7 and I've never felt like my height has held me back much. Obviously being taller would be nice but I don't think shortcomings in life (no pun intended) are due to my height.

However if you're something like 5'4 and in the US, yeah I believe that height does hold you back. You are visibly significantly shorter than average and that can be a dealbreaker for many women, and also it might be harder for you to gain respect amongst your male peers and in your professional life. So basically 5'6 and under your height begins to hold you back.

So in my opinion going from under 5'6 to over 5'7 would be the biggest game changer. The higher you go the more the returns are diminished. A 6'5 guy going to 6'8 probably won't even notice a difference at all, except maybe he'll be scouted to play basketball (until they learn he had LL lol)

Quote from: Tartar on December 28, 2020, 10:32:13 PMI don't judge anybody, even if you are 6' and you want to do LL why not, the only thing I strongly think is that the benefits you can achieve are lower, nothing else.

Hi bro ,
I hope you are doing well , your comment seems to me sensitive , but I want why do you perceive that the benefits will be lower in terms of what comparing two guys 6'1 and the other 6'5 , I think that the 6'5 guy has more pros than the 6'1 , in terms of aesthetic and attractivity?

I think 6'5 is preferable to 6'1.  But to be honest, comparing a 6'1 man and a 6'5 man in attractiveness, most women will focus more on face, body proportions, athleticism, etc., rather than height, because the average height of women, even in tall countries, is about  5'7-5'8 (maybe 5'9, I'm not sure) that is, a 6'1 man will already be perceived as tall by most women

Thank you men , I reckon that's judicious what you say , but what about doing it just to get rid of this hantive idea of height and comparing yourself to others?

Hi bro
In the example you did I think that none of them has any issue with his height, even the 6'1 is everywhere tall so despite being 6'5 is better there's not a big difference, expecially because I don't think that going over 6'3-6'4 can give real benefits.
But let's talk about a 5'10 guy and a 6'1 guy. The second one has a better height in term of attractiveness for sure, but the 5'10 has no things precluded by his height. He can hang out with almost every girl because he has a decent height, he can be a policeman, he can go out without being noticed for a short stature and he's not judged for it.

Can you say the same for a 5'3, 5'4 or even 5'5 guy? He will be always marked as "the short guy", he will be able to hang out with shorter girls only (because girls don't want a dude shorter than them, I think this is a fact) and among them, even if much shorter than him, let's say a 5' girl, many of them would reject anyway because that's not a decent height for a man, it's way too short than the average. In many countries he'll not be able to work as policeman due to his height and, at first glance, he is going to be underrated by many people in social life and he'll have to be nice and charismatic to be appreciated and reverse the first thought on him.
That's the reason why, even if they are just few inches, the jump to an height like 5'7 is so great, because you can leave behind all this shet. This is my thought but I'm think many people can agree with my speech.

1.70 is an average size in most countries. Many famous businessmen, singers, movie actors, politicians etc.

+ 7-8 cm is a huge difference for anyone less than 1.70 in height. It will have an average height and won't be very unobtrusive in society because there are a lot of people like it.

Lots of people here want to have average height, not tall.

I think this is not a problem if you have a strong desire, a lot of money and time and you are not going to engage in professional sports
