Okay, I know proportions are overrated and everyone is different cause different genes, and etc. Having relatively short legs sucks more than having relatively short arms, but we need take into consideration that it doesn't look good to walk around like a trex either. based on my observations, most men tend to have wingspan equal to their height or more. And in rare cases, yeah there are dude's out there with shorter arms but not as much. My question here is, what should be the maximum difference between wingspan and height before starting to look off or unpleasant to the human eye, Height- wingspan=?

I see, but there's gotta be a limit, thou. Think about it. Somebody who is going to increase one pair of his limbs by 2 inches would certainly pull it off, if he has a longer torso. But let's say someone is going to do 4 inches in two segments, wouldn't you think in that case his legs are really tall for his wingspan? Lets say there's a 4 inches difference between his height and wingspan? Although clothes can cover some of that, but still it seems like something is not right.
Having longer legs is perceived to be attractive, but still there needs to be a balance between height and wingspan, and the difference between them shouldn't be significant. What I really want to get out of this topic is that What the max difference between height and wingspan should be to the extent that somebody won't realize that there's something wrong with the proportions.

P.S: I understand that this concept can be relative,too. But since we generalized "safe lengthening amounts" as 5cm on tibias and 8 cm on femurs, I think it's a good idea to the same for this one.
Yeah I absolutely agree with you, I joined this forum because of height insecurities ,and now I am drving myself mad about proportions. I think I should stop treating this surgery as something that transforms you into a greek god, and rather approach it as a tool to achieve an average height. But hey, You always want more, and that's in human being's nature i suppose.
