In pre-civilization times, according to archaeological data, only 1 in 17 men (≈6%) left offspring, which correlates very strongly with dating app data.
Similarly, 5-7% of men receive the absolute majority of likes and, as a result, sex, based on face, height and frame.
We can assume in this case that to slay in the modern world you must be in the top 6% by face, height and frame.

So, how do we measure IDEAL height? Firstly, you need to know average height around the country you live in. For example, the tallest state in the world (Netherlands) has 185cm (6ft 1) as average around white young male population, then the ideal would be 196cm+ (6ft 5).
Netherlands

🇺🇸 What about America? Average height around young white Americans is around 183cm (6ft). In this case, the ideal height would be a little bit above 193 cm (6ft 4).
America

Let me make you even more insecure. Those data I used may not be so relevant, cuz when I (6ft 4) visited Netherlands I felt so fucking average. So, I guess real average height in any country could be higher than on paper

I literally miss the top 6% by one inch. Guess I'm just a normie :Comfy:

well the thing about being 6'3 barefoot is you can still use certain shoes and lifts to get taller i think you dont want to be any taller than 6'4

If I could choose, I would be 6'5-6'6 barefoot. You are heightmogging literally 99%+ of men and still not an ogre or horsefacecell

Idk I'm 195cm and I wouldn't want to be a hair taller. I would trade 5 inches of my height to have even a 1 psl better face.

You don't need to be a psl god if you got chad height and frame. 6'5 HTN with 23 inches bidelt is literally unmoggable in 99% of cases
 
This 5'10-5'11 shit is cope. They consider ethnics, I wrote only about white young population
Same shit in Netherlands. Avg height with ethnics — 6ft, without — 6ft 1

19inches :/ it's fine I just need to hop on a cycle or some shit
 
damn I'm doing LL to get to 6 feet and yall mtfs talking about 6 5
 
Yeah, bad for 6'5. I'm 6'4 and got 21 inches (never trained my shoulders)
Yeah I'm skinny as fuck, I weigh like 74kg. Massive hopefuel though cus it's a massive halo if I get big at this height.

It's not mostly about being skinny, it's more about narrow clavicles I guess. Or you did measure your bidelt incorrectly
 
the uk pisses me off. the average height here increased SO much. im ~6’5.5 in shoes, but i get height matched/mogged multiple times a day, and tower over noticeably less people than anywhere else, EVEN in the netherlands
still not to say that i don’t tower over most people, but i feel way less impressive than elsewhere
what the fuck is this random inflation
 
but truth be told i honestly believe 90% of people on this forum are capping about their height
Agree, but I see no benefits in lying here about the height. Always been claiming my honest 6'4 both offline and online

In London? ur capping, i went there and at 5 8 i was exactly average

maybe i’m schizo, but that’s just how it feels. way more heightmoggers than anywhere else

That's what I'm talking about. And someone still doesn't believe that 6ft is literally average

that’s exactly what i think the average height in my uni is tbh, despite it being full of ethnics
likely is also the same in the surrounding areas

Not even talking about uni, I'm in high-school and there is same shit. But we got no ethnics cuz I'm in Eastern Europe
 
because 1) my wingspan is 5 8 so im limited
2) i want to walk again
Yeah, I always forget this proportion thing. Wouldn't you look like shit if your wingspan will be 10 cm shorter than height?

Yeah well ig I'm cursed with narrow clavicles then. I'm confident I measured them correctly, certainly within +-1 inch. There are worse things to be cursed with though and bidelt width is still something that can be majorly improved in the gym.
 
so... everyone in this thread is casually just above 6'4? :feelswhy: :lul:

10cm is the maximum someone could do to still look somewhat normal, that's why I'm limited...

if i had 180 armspan, i would've gone for 10 cm femur 5 cm tibia, both 2 years apart, but alas

i live in a balkan country where the average is 180cm and honestly with lifts i was around 176 and felt normal.

my friend who is 183cm constantly overshadows people and heightmogs, but even he can sometimes feel average

It all depends on who you are staying next to, usually capitals have shorter people and less known cities have heightmoggers

There is a way. You sell your house as you did with car and do the arm lengthening surgery as well:lul:

im living on rent so i'm done for, also arm lenghtening is painful and it's for a maximum 5cm which is not worth bro

it feels that way because your brain automatically counts short men as women unless you focus on them, i noticed this after feeling the same growing from 5'6 to 6'0.5 until i realized i was literally excluding anyone more than 3 inches shorter than me from my competition. BRUTAL subconscious heightpill
