Why every inch from 5'5" to 5'8" makes a difference

Edit Post

Quote from: Arrogance on November 17, 2020, 10:27:20 PMSo much for women. But if the statistics are true then it's pretty cool. It is a nice motivation for people who lenghten regardless of how much 

The statistics are conservative, could be worse in reality (meaning the actual average might be higher). But the point will remain the same, that every inch around that height makes a great difference.

But aren’t there other reasons why men want to lengthen their legs besides getting more women though? You are sad if that’s all you care about

Perhaps you could suggest some other reasons?

- Feel better about themselves
- To stop feeling less around tall people
- Stop feeling like height is holding you from anything
- Stop being looked down at
- To start being seen as man and be taken seriously
- Boost confidence which improves personality
I’m sure there are even more reasons than this. Personally, I’m already in a 3 year relationship and my motivation to get taller is definitely NOT to get women.

There aren't many reasons to do this. All the things you mention are basically just one thing which you described with different words.

Basically, LL just makes you look better (to women and other men). So the only 2 real reasons to get LL are just to be more attractive to women and respected by other men.

All the things you mention are just the byproducts of those 2 basic reasons.

The fact that you're in relationship doesn't change anything. You can be in a relationship and aren't seeing other women but you can still have the innate desire to be seen as attractive by other women in general or as in your own words, "being seen as a man".

Man this one I can relate to so much. People keep calling me ''kid''. Now it's one thing when a boomer says it but a fking 12 year old girl called me kid wtf? Even my mom said I am a kid physically and mentally. Women see nothing except looks I swear

I have to agree. LL is mainly for becoming more attractive and then feel better with yourself.
Only a fool would do LL to be more dominant to other men.
At my (average) height and with my muscles I don't really feel intimidated from men at any height but still I feel weird next to taller than me girls or even at about the same height as me, no matter if they wear heels.
If somehow the average height of women was 5.2, I would feel perfect with my height even if average men's height stayed the same.

So LL is a cosmetic surgery and most of all has to do with being attractive.
And not being short is the most important for a woman in a man's appearance.

Euh, no. Here's the definition of BDD that I took from a quick Google search:

QuoteBody dysmorphic disorder is a mental health disorder in which you can't stop thinking about one or more perceived defects or flaws in your appearance — a flaw that appears minor or can't be seen by others.
So in your case, you are a 5'6" man and think that you are short and feel bad about it, you don't have actual BDD. Your negative perception of yourself is justified and aligned with the reality since you are, in fact, short. You aren't imagining things and others will also see you as a short man.

But when a 5'11" man feels short, now he indeed has BDD in which case what he needs is not LL, but mental help.

In short, LL is not a cure to mental disorder.

Actually, that would be the only other reason to do LL besides women. You do LL to look better to other people and people are either men or women. You won't be that much dominant though (a true physically dominant men would be Jason Momoa or The Rock's sizes and heights which are not achievable via LL), but definitely respected more by them. As long as you don't get into an actual fight with them in which case, you will be more likely to lose (thank to LL).

All bull  aside checkout nicole kidman(180cm) in front of jason momoa(193) although he says he is 6'5....and to be honest in that same frame both of them pretty much look the same....height wise and nearly same arm length....except momoas arm being very muscular....in real life people dont care much about height if you are not like very short and they care more about the width for men....coz i have seen middle schoolars 6'1 above but they in no way looks manly in front 5'9 bearded decently thick guys....so there you go if long bones is the only thing you care about then i am sorry to say but u lack some vision....everything aside for the shorter folks just try for being average and nearly average folks aim for 6ft thts more then enough to change your life in many ways....and most importantly try to be a bit thick coz most thts more important if u wanna give a manly vibe....btw the scene i was talking abt momoa and nicole is from aquaman....when they both first meet near the sea shore.
