Are long legs a good trait on men?

[uns0l1cited]

Most men find long legs incredibly sexy on women and a sign of femininity, but is a failo or halo for men. (My legs are longer than torso)

Yes. Usually tall people have long legs. This is why women can be 5'7" but not look short, meanwhile a man with a long torso and short legs can look short in some pictures with no height reference even if he is 6'. Generally models have long limbs. I consider short legs a failio; I have short legs, long torso and I work around it by wearing high waisted pants and clothing that masks it somehow. Physically I am strong and I have a large frame, but I'd look better if my legs were at least 5cm taller. When sitting down, I am noticeably taller than most people, much more than my standing height. It is probably the single most important thing that I have learnt about fashion - following ideal proportions. If leg lengthening didn't have such downsides, I'd probably do it and also increase my wingspan to stay within good proportions. I'm built to easily add 4" to my height this way.
Obviously men will have slightly shorter legs than women in proportion, but the rule stands true for both genders. Short legs on a woman is a bigger failio than on a man. In fact it is one of the most unattractive traits in a female, especially if she is tall as she'd ideally have very long, slim legs. But it's not that important for men as clothes can mask it well. A minor failio. Only downside to long legs that I can think of is that you will probably never make a good candidate for LL, but it's a non issue if you're already tall. I'm above 6', but the door is there for me.

Ignore the minus A thing; not my edit.
