I personally think that height + frame (as one quantity) is more important than face for a man’s overall life satisfaction. Not because its more important for attraction, face > all, but because it determines how he is treated as a man.
A male under 5’8”, unless exceptionally dimorphic, is treated like a boy rather than a man, and it gets progressively worse the shorter he is. The life experience of a small man is very different to that of a large one. I’ve talked to short friends of mine about this stuff and they complain that, if you are small:
I grew up as a cutecel and was skinny and like 5’10-11ish (i know, obviously not manlet height but i was practically a twink) from 16-17, but puberty hit me hard late and I grew to almost 6’3” and gained a good bit of dimorphism + muscle & frame width. The most shocking part was not being more desirable to women, but actually being respected by people and not getting fucked with any more.
The mere idea of being bigger than most of your peers grants you inherent status, I went from feeling ignored/sidelined a lot to the focus of much more attention because of the presence height+frame gives you. Size is law especially if you don’t prioritise female affection over all else

- Nobody respects your personal space
- People, even women and teenagers talk down to you
- Nobody respects your authority when in positions of it
- You are seen as utterly unintimidating and people will not be afraid to fuck with you if you are small
- You are considered inherently submissive/incapable of dominance
- No matter how much you achieve it will be the first thing people bring up whenever they want to drag you down
- It will often be considered your most notable trait
- etc etc..
