They aren't. It's only punjabi jatts, rors and Rajput who are taller than the average curry because they get another layer of steppe dna from thr scythians. North India is also has abundance of farm land which has allowed them to grow taller but it's still not a big difference.
There are some tall South Bharatis as well but Punjabis are still the tallest.
Punjabis have like 20-25% steppe dna at max which is probably what causes itThere are some tall South Bharatis as well but Punjabis are still the tallest.
They aren't really manlets when put on western diets They are short now because the hunter gatherer populations don't react well wirh ultra processed food and carb hevy diet that indians have now also there isn't any "pure" race in south asia. Most curries are mixture of these various ancestral groups.
Kerala is second tallest in India apparently.There are some tall South Bharatis as well but Punjabis are still the tallest.
They can have more. Some register as high as 40% it was way more than researchers had expected since for many north western curries it's a main ancestral component which gave rise to the aryan migration theory.
In that case, Steppe DNA along with AASI DNA made us the tallest of Asia? Mirin.
I think western diet is a cope. It’s just determined by genetics. I am 5’10” or 5’11” and grew up on a western diet. Meanwhile my relatives that grew up in South Asia still get to my height and even taller.
Nice. Is Punjab number one?
These days the Indian diet has become better with more meat and diary consumption. Almost any ethnic group outside of pygmies can grow tall with 2-3 generations of good diet. Diet is one the primary factors affecting growth.In that case, Steppe DNA along with AASI DNA made us the tallest of Asia? Mirin.

40% is crazy because that's higher than many european countries
Western diet is legit, pakistan avg height is 5'8"ish but most I know in the west are tallI think western diet is a cope. It’s just determined by genetics. I am 5’10” or 5’11” and grew up on a western diet. Meanwhile my relatives that grew up in South Asia still get to my height and even taller.
I am still unconvinced. Punjabis can grow up to 6’5”+ in their own countries. Are you claiming we can get to 8’ in a few generations? Seems unlikely.
Average height is cope. I thought I’d be heightmogging everyone but I got heightmogged by a 6’3” (possibly taller) grandpa when I was there. People in large cities and villages are much taller than those in smaller cities.Western diet is legit, pakistan avg height is 5'8"ish but most I know in the west are tall
Correct. South asians like that exist but they are quite rare. Most people aren't higher than 20% like you said but there are a few isolated groups in KPB regions with very high Steppe dna. These are the exotic Indo Nordic Curries that people speak of. They are quite rare tho
Is that what someone like hritik is?
Yes. Hrithik is an example of that and so are these guys and that is real reason why people like this exist not because these people are alexander the greats ancestors like some people theorized in the past
Even first-gen punjabis are super tall. Does that mean we can get even taller? Brutal.
uk curries are mainly punjabi so that explains this
I don't think that will happen tbh height seems to taper off as the diet is controlled. In other words a population can't grow past it's genetic limit no matter how good their diet is like south asia will have never 6'2 average height like balkans but the differences in height greatly get reducedEven first-gen punjabis are super tall. Does that mean we can get even taller? Brutal.
Your parents didn't eat and starvedWhy’d I end up 5’3 teramanlet then? I ate a relatively good diet as a kid
But they did though?? At the very least you don’t think I should’ve atleast reached my dad’s height?
Most people do reach their dad's height if the dad is the taller one tbh.
there are some distinct fob punjabi phenotypes, particularly with the women, the ones that usually work hospitality or agency work. those are usually short with forward grown faces. but yea ive seen some tall first gen punjabis too, but never the women for some reasonEven first-gen punjabis are super tall. Does that mean we can get even taller? Brutal.
Genes are so random bruhhh, you’d think I’d be giga recessed along with my manletism yet my face bones kept growing, make it make sense!!
I didn't even know there was a sizable population of 4th gen immigrants from south asia in the west.
You are a dravidian chadlet bhai. Find your amazonian aryan woman and ascend.Genes are so random bruhhh, you’d think I’d be giga recessed along with my manletism yet my face bones kept growing, make it make sense!!
actually there isnt. i just realised that my great grandfather came over a bit later
Not chad bhai, atleast not before hardmaxxing
why would you be recessed with manletism? genes dont work that way, plus you barely need air because youre a manlet so your body will never revert to mouth breathing out of breathlessnessGenes are so random bruhhh, you’d think I’d be giga recessed along with my manletism yet my face bones kept growing, make it make sense!!
Idk bruh, the theory that many users here believe is that good genes come in packages which is why I asked
My mom has some random ass French and German trace ancestry jfl, I thought at first it was just noise from 23andme’s analysis but when I ran it through gedmatch she had high steppe for a low caste curry, guessing it wasn’t actually noise
Wdym again? Are you a fakecelNot chad bhai, atleast not before hardmaxxing
I’ll start dating again after my surgeries, need to compensate for being a teramanlet high inhib ND autistic cuck
Punjabis are easily 6’2”+, not as the average but individually. We punjabis even have people that are over 7’ tall.
I don’t say we are the tallest of Asia for nothing.
Yes, for some reason the women aren’t tall. My brother’s wife is quite tall, though. She is 5’8” and I’m 5’10” and with shoes on she looks just as tall as me. Brutal.
Most people do have traces of other ethnic groups because of globalization, immigration and european conquests. You are not alone. People rarely get dna tests saying thry are 100% european or 100% South asian. Race and genetics aren't that rigidMy mom has some random ass French and German trace ancestry jfl, I thought at first it was just noise from 23andme’s analysis but when I ran it through gedmatch she had high steppe for a low caste curry, guessing it wasn’t actually noise
your brother selected well, or whoever selected her did
on second thought it makes sense since shes your cousin
My brother did. He’s 6’0” barefoot but gets to 6’1.5” or something with shoes on.
She’s not our cousin. At least, not very close. Turns out, they are distantly related. She is from Amsterdam but her village in Pakistan was founded by relatives that also founded our village miles away. Small world, huh?on second thought it makes sense since shes your cousin
