I avoided looking into studies that only have surveys for women to fill to minimize the effect of virtue signalling as well as to look at their actions and not their words. At the bottom of each study, I assign points as a percentage in relation to the other heights, with 1 being the highest point. I'll show how I did this for the first study. I only did this for heights between 5'11 to 6'5 as those were the heights that seemed significant in each study.

Heights: 5'11 (221 pixels), 6'0 (230 pixels), 6'1 (218 pixels), 6'2 (210 pixels), 6'3 (181 pixels), 6'4 (157 pixels), 6'5 (126 pixels)
Heights: 5'11 (221/230), 6'0 (230/230), 6'1 (218/230), 6'2 (210/230), 6'3 (181/230), 6'4 (157/230), 6'5 (126/230)

Summary of heights in each study
Study 1: 5'11 (0.96), 6'0 (1.0), 6'1 (0.95), 6'2 (0.91), 6'3 (0.79), 6'4 (0.68), 6'5 (0.55)
Study 2: 5'11 - 6'0 (0.75), 6'1-6'2(0.88), 6'3-6'4(1.0), 6'5-6'6(0.88)
Study 3: 5'11 (0.91), 6'0 (0.94), 6'1 (1.0), 6'2 (0.98), 6'3 (0.94), 6'4 (0.97), 6'5 (0.96)
Study 4: 5'11 (0.90), 6'0(0.92), 6'1(0.91), 6'2(0.92), 6'3 (0.90), 6'4 (0.90), 6'5(1.0)
Study 5: 5'11 (0.90), 6'0 (0.90), 6'1(0.92), 6'2(0.94), 6'3 (0.91), 6'4(0.85), 6'5(1.0)

When we add up these points, we get the following for each height:
5'11: 0.96 + 0.75 + 0.91 + 0.90 + 0.90 = 4.42
6'0: 1.0 + 0.75 + 0.94 + 0.92 + 0.90 = 4.51
6'1: 0.95 + 0.88 + 1.0 + 0.91 + 0.92 = 4.66
6'2: 0.91 + 0.88 + 0.98 + 0.92 + 0.94 = 4.63
6'3: 0.79 + 1.0 + 0.94 + 0.90 + 0.91 = 4.54
6'4: 0.68 + 1.0 + 0.97 + 0.90 + 0.85 = 4.40
6'5: 0.55 + 0.88 + 0.96 + 1.0 + 1.0 = 4.39

We can see that 6'1 and 6'2 have the highest points, so we can conclude that either of these two are the most attractive height.

Do you disagree with this conclusion? If so, why?

Did they factor in face? Tall people tend to have uglier faces, which might balance the height disadvantage of a bit shorter men out.
6'4-6'6 combined with a good face is God Mode. The most desirable height, women see men as status objects and this would be a reason to brag. I can't believe people think 6'1 is ideal lol.

In-large also but slightly filtered. All I did was add two filters. Bronze and no dark circle filter.

Still a 25-30% body-fat, but for normies skin-care is absolutely everything.

You got any memes to come-back at me with now?

The thing is, I tried to pm’d him a bunch about tennis because I thought we shared similar interests, but his jealousy got the best of him after I said @aestheticallypleasin had a really good eye area. He needs to stop being a jealous prick.
 
the problem with these threads is there's nothing you can do short of lifts which seem ridiculous to me or LL and if that's off the table then there's no point even thinking about this, all it does is serve a more negative mental state which will negatively affect the interactions you have with women who are already interested

Lol, honestly no, I was never interested in speaking to you and made that clear very early on, but when he released that screenshot of you dissing me behind my back, while being sweet to my face, I just thought I'd slip it in there and let you know.

As for AsestheticallyPleasin, it is clear he is not good looking. He's a fag with a heavily photoshopped upper tier photograph which he posts in PMs and gullible little children like you who's voices are still yet to break believe it's really how he looks LMAO. He also doesn't show his entire face for a reason. One you are too stupid to work out, but I really couldn't care, ROFL.

You're like 16. We have nothing in common. Stop stalking me and fuck off.

show me the pm lmao. i never said anything bad about you and remained diplomatic. i can post the pm’s if you really want me to. i honestly didn’t want to be your ‘friend’ or anything. i kept messaging you bc i have an obsession with tennis and found it cool that another guy on here also shares the same passion. and yes, you’re right, we don’t share anything in common because i definitely don’t have the same personality as you or go batshit crazy when someone adds a suffix to the end of a word. i tried to be nice to you initially because i thought you were one of the honest users on this forum who gave good advice, but hell was i wrong. i don’t wanna waste any more of your or my time so i’m stopping here.

Optimal height is like 4-8 inches higher than the average male in your country.

Because your face is bad.

Sexual attraction is a balance of FACE PLUS HEIGHT PLUS MANY OTHER features.

Here are some examples:

HEIGHT + FACE examples:

6'4" with 3/10 face = incel

5'6" with 6/10 face = incel

6'0" with 5/10 face = normie

5'10" with 8/10 face = Slayer

6'4" with 8/10 face = GIGASlayer (Biggest slayer in this red group)


HEIGHT + FACE + DICK examples:

6'4" + 4/10 face + 4" dick = incel

5'10" + 5/10 face + 5.5-6" dick = normie


5'10" + 5/10 face + 8+" dick = slayer if low inhib.

5'6" + 5/10 face + 6" dick = incel

6'0" + 7/10 face + 7" dick = slayer


6'4" + 7/10 face + 7" dick = GIGAslayer (Biggest slayer in this green group)


Also if you want, I can do more examples with this like race, status, etc.

Would this not be heavily dependent on where one lives? Countries where the male average height is 6’0 and countries where the male average height is 5’6 obviously won’t have the same most attractive height.

Those researches are often complete bullshit some say that 5'11 is ideal etc even tho 6'1-6,4 is the ideal range
 
6'5" is ideal. Towers over average height but it's not so tall that you look like a freak. I find that 6'6" and taller you are just seen as an NBA player or draw too much attention to yourself in public

That's a good point, why make a thread about a feature we may not be able to change? However, perceived height is something we can change. Lifts can add up to 3 inches of height and we can also lie about height within 2 inches (most people can't tell a difference of 2 inches). For example, if a man is 5'8, he can wear 3 inch lifts to boost him to 5'11 and lie about his height by 2 inches to get to 6'1. Another example, if a man is 6'4, he can lie and say his height is actually 6'2.

If they question how the height was measured, say you measured it with shoes and you also included hair height. Just act like you didn't know any better.

Very very dangerous territory.
 
This is cope, there is no ideal height, the taller the better, all else equal. Ive seen studies supporting this, and more importantly the stuff you posted doesnt control for other variable. Not that this can be easily exploited anyway.

If your face is ugly it’s best to be as tall as possible, an unusually tall ugly guy like 6’6+ can slay but a 6’2 ugly guy will not. Once your face reaches chad or even chad lite tier, just being 5’7+ is enough to slay. Look at Zayn or Justin. Someone with an chad face will be able to get almost all women shorter than them. Women’s height requirement only applies to normies
 
Do you disagree with this conclusion? If so, why?
What is the location though??

I agree for USA, Noorth America, Australia, Eastern Europe, South and middle Europe.

I disagree, for Northern Europe. I life in tallest nation of world. And 6'1 and 6'2 is not the ideal here. It's 6'4. But then, it's the tallest nation in the world.
For Asia, and Africa, I dunno what is the ideal height. For Asia maybe a bit shorter could help, because you look like a giant in China at 6'2. I hanged with Vietnamese once, the height mogging at 6'2 is unreal. Both the women and men.

Good point, location is important to consider. I looked up the locations of each study, and here is what I found:

Study 1: North America, average male height: 5'9
Study 2: United States, average male height: 5'9
Study 3: United States, average male height: 5'9
Study 4: United States, average male height: 5'9
Study 5: United States and Canada, average male height: 5'9

If one wanted to extrapolate this to other countries, for example, Netherlands, where the average male height is 6'0, then that is 3 inches different than the average height of males conducted in the study. So, you would add 3 inches to the 'ideal height', 6'1 and 6'2 to 6'4 and 6'5, respectively. If it was China, where the average male height is 5'6, then the ideal height would be 5'10.

Yeah, that's a good adding!
That with that 6'1 - 6'2 as ideal height; it's based on the average height of 5'9 for males in that nation. When the average height deviates from that, then add or substract that amounts.
Seems like a good rule of tumb. In Netherlands ideal is deffo 6'4 range.
