Also, while "leggy" women are generally considered to look great, it's less clear whether similarly leggy men are considered nearly as attractive by women. I think that, after lengthening too much, many men look like they're walking on stilts. Does anyone have pics of men who lengthened a lot and still look great?

I also forgot to add this girl lengthened by a total of 14cm (~5.5 inches).

You make a great point, I never really thought of that...I think typically a women with long legs is considered attractive while a man with very long legs...is not necessarily considered unattractive but its not something sought after. In any case even with the amount Apostheosis lengthened to me it doesn't look un natural just like he has very long legs and I swear I've seen men like that in real life. Nothing necessarily unattractive about it. He's tall thats what would initially stand out if i met him and had no idea who he was.

What I think looks the weirdest is when people have their tibia and femur bones out of proportion. Like when the tibia looks too long compared to the femur and vice versa. If both are lengthened to look proportionate to one another it can work, especially for ladies

Interesting. I definitely agree with you on this one, although I think that slightly long tibias look "alrightish", since many sprinters and male models have this trait.

I've met quite a few people, though, who are taller than me standing up, but shorter sitting down. These people almost always have ridiculously long femurs. Still, I wouldn't say they look weird, just a tad long legged. I've definitely never met someone who has legs as proportionally long as Apotheosis, but, if I did, I admit that I might not notice it right away, if at all, especially if clothing were masking his true proportions. Do you think you could post a pic of a celebrity or other well-known person who looks as though they have a "weird"-looking ratio such as the ones you mentioned? I'd love to see a visual representation of what you're talking about.

Also, do you think it's better to be tall and out of proportion, or short and proportionate? This was extensively discussed in another thread, but Apotheosis is a great case study that applies to the debate, so I feel it's also relevant to discuss here.

 I did see this picture of a famous athlete with relatively long legs compared to his torso. It's is from a thread on this forum and I probably would not have picked up on the length of his legs if it hadn't been pointed out. It is the first picture attached...Again it definitely not something I would consider unattractive by any means, it doesn't take away from his looks and I don't think it is something that would jump out to the human eye.

What I mean by what looks "disproportionate"  is this man's legs in the 2nd picture  post operation. His femurs compared to his tibia's look a little long to me in this picture. It's nothing major, again nothing I would notice initially but they just look a little long when I really examine the picture. Of course it is easy to say this now but in real life when we're not on guard, not thinking about proportions who would really notice that? I personally would want to make sure both these bones looks as proportionate to one another as possible on my body, but I know it isn't something others would really notice either way. I had never really noticed people's tibias and femur before (haha) but as you mentioned -Tall- there are people born with really long femurs so it's not like people's bodies don't actually look like that.

As far as weather I think someone short is more attractive who has great proportions vs someone tall who is un proportionate I would say it matters on the level of how off the person's proportions off. If it is by something negligible, something that would only be noticed if it was pointed out I would say the taller person is more attractive. If the proportions were so off as to make the person seem unappealing (really long legs, significantly shorter torso and arms to the point were its super obvious)I would say the short person would be more attractive. I do think that everyone's proportions very so much that in general LL will not make you look unnatural. People exist with long legs and shorter
torso-bodies come in so many shapes and sizes.

What do people think of arm length though? If one's legs are stretched say 15cm (combined cm for both the tibia and femur) would the arm length then become noticeable or would the difference be negligible to the human eye?

talking about the picture you shown, the tall guy looks a little bit disproportionate, not much, but the only thing that make him look  disproportionate is his head. You see, most shorter people usually have smaller head and body compared to taller people, when you lengthen your legs, the proportion of your head would matter as well, for me to having small head make me unable to goes more than 10cm or it would make look like i'm wearing high heels compared to make my legs look long, usually bigger and wider hair could make the disproportionate goes away because it widen your head

Yeah I think you're right. In my opinion torso length is negligible. I've seen people of all heights with various torso length and I really don't think that matters. I've noticed sitting height more than ever these past few weeks. My friends one who is 5'6 the other 4'10 (females) were sitting next to each other and there was about a 2 inch difference. The 5'6 girl's sitting height was about the same as the male she was sitting to who was 5'11.

However when it comes to nail length and head size I deff think that makes a big difference on how far you can go with this surgery. Short arms while not super unattractive will deff make someone look un-proportionate. I feel the same about someone with a small head and long body, that would look really weird....as does someone with a huge head and small body. Those are things to keep in mind, I myself have a small head to begin with so being too tall would deff throw off my proportions..

SO I WAS TALKING TO SOMEONE THAT SAW APOTHEOSIS/ SYSOP IN INDIA, THEY WERE SAYING HE LOOKS TERRIBLE, HE WAS ALWAYS TRYING TO PULL HIS SHIRT DOWN TO HIDE HIS TORSO.

THERE WAS A PICTURE OF HIM RECENTLY THAT MADE HIM LOOK PRETTY GOOD, WAS THAT A EDITED PHOTO??

I AM THINKING 21CM OF LENGTHENING THERE IS NO WAY YOU WILL LOOK NORMAL!!

WHY ISN'T THERE A PICTURE OF HIM WALKING OR RUNNING? WHAT IS HE TRYING TO HIDE!!

This really could have just been put in the other topic. No need for anymore separate threads regarding that guy.

Agreed. But does anyone think his sitting height is actually 94 CM as he claims?

We can't confirm that. But in India, he was advising several patients to increase their butt size to increase their sitting height.

I wasn't sure if he was serious. If you meet Sysop/Apoth in person, he really likes to joke around. So you don't know when he is serious and when he is not. Most people I spoke with think he's weird. I wonder if he thought about when he stands up, his big butt doesn't cover his short torso.

So maybe he can reach 94cm sitting down.... sitting over a thick wallet and layers of tissue paper in his butt pocket.
