women usually suck at eyeballing so much that a 6' guy could tell them he's 6'6" and they'll fall for it

It's chick inches. She thinks she encounters 6' 6" guys all the time (they're really 6' 2") and has had multiple boyfriends with 9.5" to 10" dicks.

Imagine being so delusional your expectation is a man so tall he can't walk through a door ( 6'4) without crouching.

They definitely view getting a boyfriend/husband as some sort of social symbol and it's disturbing.

I always say that modern women view men they want as husbands as nothing more than a utility.

Even the so-called tradcon wives and "born again" Christian sluts who try to bag a husband talk about them as utilities. They do not and are incapable of loving them due to their inability to pair bond.

I can't wait for them and the infrastructure that supports their frame of mind to collapse and go extinct.

Only 1 in 648 American men are 6'6" or taller: https://tall.life/height-percentile-calculator-age-country/

Even in the Netherlands (tallest country in the world) it puts you in the 98.9th percentile. lol

I've heard some men have gone so far as to have surgery to install longer shins.

The film Gattaca came out in 1997 and had that in it, it's not a new concept at this point.

To be fair, I can understand it with midgets and dwarves, even though it's so much risk for so minimal a gain.

I disagree with it, but I can understand it.

agreed. I can certainly empathize in those extreme cases, but I'd encourage a friend/family member not to go through with it.

my understanding is the procedure is rather agonizing as well...

I recall a documentary on clinics in China where they break your legs and put them in a special cast to make gaps hoping the bone will fill it while healing.

As you can guess, this is dangerous as it can heal incorrectly and the result is more prone to fractures. ( Need I say, it's also extremely painful. )

If you consider the total advantages of being taller, it might be worth it. Which doesn't mean that everyone would want to take the risk. but some people would.

For reference, 183 cm is when you hit the magic 6 foot mark. Looks like we're on the right track for every murrican woman to have that 6 foot 6 digit salary man so long as the currency cooperates. Just pray that they can handle birthing bigger babies (at least so long as they still do natural methods).

Women will just prefer men over 7 feet tall once the average is 6 feet.

  1. We want men that make 6 figures!
  2. Why are men making more than us? Sexism!
  3. Where have all the men making more than us gone?
  4. We want men that are making 7 figures!

Yep. Already demanding 6'6 instead of just the 6' meme. When I was in high school you just had to be taller than her when she's in her sluttiest heels.

Women say they want 6 foot, but directly with you, something ''ticks right'' if you're about 2 inches taller ( she has to look up to your eyes in close proximity ).

There is no shortage of women 2 inches shorter than any man. ( Average height is 5'10 for US males and only 5'4 for US females. )

The problem is, women also want a man that is taller than her female peers' partners as a display of social status.

( Which is why there are so many dumb cunts trying to one-up eachother saying they want a 6'2, 6'4+ man. They are trying to indirectly assert to other women that they have higher standarts because they are ''high value'' ( they aren't ) women. )

I remember I was dating a woman once and she started talking up about her sister's boyfriend and the work he does, how her sister is so lucky and (rolls her eyes while saying this) "she always has a new boyfriend as soon as she gets out of a relationship". I realized she was comparing me to the boyfriends of the women she was jealous of, including her sister. I later ended that relationship.

For a really fun time, ask a woman to hold her hands 8 inches apart and see what happens.

For even more fun anyone over 6 feet try listing your height as 5' 13" or whatever matches and watch just how many vain idiots there are.

Also serves as a great filter.

Interesting that WW2 seems to have actually increased the rate of height increase in Germany, vis a vis Australia where it obviously had the opposite effect (I assume)...

Different selection pressures, I suppose.

I know we got dicked over by rationing a bit (compared to the US, for example), but I very much doubt that would have had as much of an effect as the bombing and occupation of the whole of Germany, lol...

Would be interesting to have a breakdown of East Germany vs West, though, rather than just the total, for that period, because I suspect that might differ quite substantially...

I read that the Dutch are now the tallest people in the world and it's no co-incidence they also have the highest intake of dairy products

permalink parent save report block reply

– bamboozler1 11 points 2 years ago +11 / -0

Yeah, I mean I don't know about the dairy bit, but the Dutch have been the tallest in the world, on average, for some 200 years or so, I believe...

Good nutrition is definitely a huge part of that, so you're right in that regard!

But I think the "West Germanic" ethnicity probably also trends towards height, at least in recent centuries...

Seems to peter out when you get towards Western/Southern France, and the UK, though!

On this note, even though Scandinavia is obviously closely interrelated, I noticed a substantial difference in appearance between Danes versus Norwegians/Swedes. Danes are, generally, shorter, stockier and, I guess, less "blonde-looking". Both women and men.

Which is interesting, considering the history of those regions, and historic intermingling. It's interesting that it is still noticeable, even though Sweden is now almost as urbanised/cosmopolitan as Denmark is.

Same as how I can generally tell the difference (most of the time) between Aussies and New Zealanders. Although an outsider might struggle more with that, I guess...

The data for East and West Germany should be easily extracted from their respective 40 years of mandatory military service. Just got to find the right records.

Anecdotal evidence: I see no difference between people who were born in East Germany, to me and my Western friends.

We are (almost) all taller than our fathers though. Fathers born in 50s, we in 80s.

There's an obvious angle but I don't know if it's accurate. How tall were the Jews?

Here are the conversions anyway:
180cm=5'10.86" (roughly 10 and 7/8)
175=5'8.90"
170=5'6.93" (roughly 6 and 15/16)
165=5'4.96"
160=5'2.99"

Fantastic correlation with when nutrition in those nations took off.

Be good to see data from 1980 onwards. Y'know, the last 50 years that have been skipped in this 'chart'.

yeah, women are children and require the guiding hand of a strong man throughout their life.

children want a unicorn and to stay up all night and eat candy for every meal. it doesn't mean we let them.

women have desires, emotions, and expectations much like children do. they require a man to guide and control them.
