Quote from: ItsMyLife on March 15, 2015, 09:21:51 PMok I understand now.
but since france is as developed as America perhaps the average is not 5 cm taller.
as far as the American and Danish data etc shows, the average probably went up at most 0.9 cm over decades....
there must be some data, eg, universities, or military exam or even hospital data. I think u can try finding

no there are no such datas, unfortunately

Quote from: ReadRothbard on March 15, 2015, 08:13:38 PMFor me, it partially is women. I have gotten a handful of complaints from parties and such that I'm "too short" and, while you can't satisfy everyone, it still feels like crap.


I agree with this. Never had trouble with women, and I was never really called short by more than maybe one or two that I can think of (unless we're counting online dating, where I'm sure many women passed on me because of my height). Another thing that annoyed me was getting back-hand compliments from women like "You're the only short guy I would ever date" or "I normally don't date short guys, but you're cute enough that I'll make an exception for you." I think to myself "Don't do me any favors! If what you really want is a tall guy, go find one!" It's all good, because I still bagged most of these girls...lol.

Respect and presence.

Don't like working for it or being doubted consistently. Its annoying.

Example would be i had an argument recently for my return flight from Cancun with a manager. i got a Google notification that the flight was delayed 6 hours. So instead of going to the airport me and my friend hung out at the hotel for a little longer and spent more time at the beach. so later we came to the airport and found out they wouldn't let us check in since they closed "there systems" even though there was 2 1/2 hours left before takeoff. I complained and was pretty aggressive blaming the company for there policy but the guy seemed offended and took it to heart by feeling a guy like me talking to "down" him. Guess he didn't like someone younger or looks like a kid talking "down" to him. Made him feel inferior and took offense to it. Anyways my 6'4 friend played the good cop role, calmed things down, asked nicely,  and they finally let us on the flight. (before the guy was just trying to get us to leave it literally took the guy 5 minutes to check us in fking lazy mother fker)

one part of it was really funny when my friend went off to the bathroom he turned around telling me to shhh (you know finger on his mouth thing) and the guy looked at me angry and was like "you see that...your friend smart..you shut up" trying to intimidate me (inside i wanted to bust out laughing but i had to be smart and just let this one go and look like i felt bad for yelling at the guy since we are getting on our flight).

But honestly height seems to determine respect and you don't get taken as seriously as you should. That's my one big problem with it and why i am willing to dish out an absurd amount of money to not deal with this crap anymore.

For me it would be like a dream come true, I always wanted to be tall since I was a child. When I found out that my growth plates were already close when I was around 6-8cm's away from my goal I was crushed. Then I found this forum and decided to do this, since it's the only way (I don't like the idea of wearing lifts) to get the height you want.
So being tall is the reason for me.
