There are numerous "methods" people have come up with that manlets can use to apparently give people the illusion that they're taller than they actually are

Here's a list of common methods to help short guys look taller that you can find on google:
  • Monochromatic Outfits: Wearing a single color or similar shades can create a streamlined look, making you appear taller.
  • Vertical Stripes: Patterns that run vertically can elongate your figure.
  • Fitted Clothing: Avoid baggy clothes; tailored fits that hug your body can create a sharper silhouette.
  • High-Waisted Pants: These can elongate your legs visually, especially when paired with a tucked-in top.
  • Elevated Shoes: Consider shoes with thicker soles or small heels to add height.
  • Pointed Toes: Shoes with a pointed toe can create the illusion of longer legs.
  • Stand Tall: Good posture—shoulders back, chest out—can make a significant difference in how tall you appear.
  • Avoid Slouching: Slouching can make you look shorter and less confident.
  • Hairstyle: Adding some height with your hairstyle (e.g., a bit of volume at the top) can create the illusion of added height.
  • Avoid Heavy Layers: Too many layers can add bulk. Stick to lighter layers that don’t drown your figure.
  • Long Cardigans or Jackets: These can create vertical lines, enhancing the illusion of height.
  • Short Shorts: They can make your legs appear shorter; opt for longer shorts or pants
Am I the only one who's extremely confused by this whole thing?

Dear manlets, there is absolutely NOTHING you can do to make you look taller. There are no "illusions" that will fool people into thinking you're taller than you actually are.

"maybe if I work on correcting my posture by standing up as straight as possible and wear vertical stripes and a monochromatic outfit, I'll look taller and get better treatment from girls and people in general when I go out"

Elevator shoes and lifts are probably the only methods that make sense to me, but you can only get like 2-3 inches max with those, which isn't significant enough to take most manlets out of manlet territory. Lifts or shoes that give you more than 2-3 inches start to become extremely obvious, plus you're not always gonna have your shoes on when you're with people.

but if someone is 5,4 and he gains 2-3 inches from those that still wont help
 
These methods mainly work for pictures, but it still more important to angle fraud them. Still agree with everything you said

yeah, completely retarded. unironically, accepting your height is the only solution to this problem.

and doing all that nonsense just to "appear" 1 inch taller for a minute, which will make 0 difference whatsoever, just puts a lot of pressure in your head and makes you even more troubled with your height

i think lifts are bs too, because they will ruin your proportions if you go overboard with them. height isn't just about the length of your body, it's about proportions (long torso and arms, besides legs) that come with it.

a 5ft6 guy wearing 3 inch lifts will just look even more retarded and off. knew a couple of guys who were doing that and they were clowned behind their back all the time. of course, they thought they are masters of frauding and that it's completely unnoticeable.
