I was wondering how far peoples hands go down their body as an average.
we already know wingspan relative to height is important, however I believe that wingspan is not a good indicator of how large your upper body is.
I believe that a large wingspan(relative to your actual height) is only significant if it is also in tandem with hands that DONT reach far down your body.
because even if you have a large wingspan you can still have a small upper body.
having a large wingspan will only be beneficial when in clothes. having a large upper body will be beneficial when nked or in a bathing suit.
this question is aimed at the topic of who is ideal for getting LL.
and I believe it is a person who:
1) has a large wingspan greater than their body height,
2) which also has an arm length where their fist(hands) does not go past their penis when standing.
3) and also who is not yet at the golden ratio (1.682) for leg to upper body ratio. (navel to ground :navel to top of head).
think about it, if you have a massive massive arm reach it will mean nothing if your spine is 3 cm tall and your hands reach the floor.
-
You aware that penis ranges from 3inch to 7inch , so you can't choose it to determine the length of the arm
-
we are talking about a flaccid penis here.
(16 studies they cited, from various countries, a multitude of studies)
•Across studies it has been concluded that flaccid lengths range around 7 to 10 centimeters (2.8-3.9 inches).
and this is why I gave the option for top half of penis and lower half of penis. this is a very accurate question and is relative to an individuals anatomy for proportions.
your penis is suppose to sit at a specific ratio in vertical height on your body.
7 inches is a serious exaggeration.

What I can say is that I have really long arms and pre op my hands went to my knees(in a fist probably just where the knee starts. Now I am three inches above that so lower/mid thigh.

Really? Do you have any pics maybe, because I don't really believe this :O

on a side note some pics of perfect proportions.
the biggest difference between men and women is that the elbow crease in men is parallel to the navel, and women are suppose to have this crease slightly above their navel line.

another side note: the mid point for your body, the half way point is suppose to be where the penis attaches to your body.
so if you are 180cm tall then your penis should attach at 90cm.

how do I attach a photo?

no pictures I'd be ok with posting. Maybe when I can walk properly I'll take some of post op where they fall to.

I've tracked down programdude and found these pictures of him:

Hmmm. In my case, my elbow crease is around an inch above my navel. I'm not fat at all and have an arm span of 6'1. My fists reach the bottom half of my penis.

Take down those pictures immediately, have you no respect for my identity?!!!!

My torso is really big but my limbs are relatively short. I think my legs could use maybe 8-9 cm extra but that would make my arms short. If I lenghten to 185 CM my arms would havve to be 2 cm longer to be in proportion. Does anyone know of a way to do that?
Humerus lenghtening seems doable but very expensive and time consuming (never mind how inconvenient it must be).
Look up "x10 - External Humerus - Dr. Dror Paley - 2010 - My Arm Lengthening Experience" on the old forum.

This poll seems to be an implicit way to make members divulge their penis lengths, lol...
-
Is that 2cm on each arm? In my opinion, it is better to live with the disproportion, especially at such a small amount. Spending the money and taking all the possible risks and time lost doing arm lengthening should only be reserved for the likes of Apotheosis, who needed to add like 15 cm to make himself look decent.
-
Yes but they should ideally be 4-5 cm longer if I were 185CM. I figured that since my arms are 2 cm short for my height already and they look good. To keep that ratio they would need to be 2 cm longer for 185 and 4 cm longer if I were 190.

crap ! their on to my plan! lol jokes. :)

actually the correct ratio is 1.023 for arm length.

so for 185 cm tall, you would need a arm reach of 189.25 to have perfect proportions.
humerus lengthening is the only way. what is your current arm reach?
-
What do you all think of having a humerus that's noticably longer than the forearm but having arms of overall normal length relative to height, versus having short arms but normal humerus to forearm proportions? I plan on being 188 with a 185 or 186CM arm span. My humerus is already slightly longer than my forearm, so 3-4CM lengthening on each humerus would make them noticably longer than my forearms.
I sometimes think its ridiculous to talk seriously about arm lengthening before getting leg lengthening, but it's definitely an interesting topic to discuss and it's good to know one's options should longer arms become a desire down the road.
-
the humerus is suppose to be larger than the forearm.
same thing for almost all animal species.

Are you talking about wingpan? Mine is 174 CM about 5 cm less than my height. My arms are 75cm which is in the normal range however but to keep that range they need to be longer.
-
yes by arm reach I meant wing span.

My elbow is 1 and 1 half inch above my navel. Thing is when i sit with my friend who is 6 foot 6'1 he maybe has a inch max on me while sitting flat on ground. I seriously think my torso is 5'10 ish.
Legs just look retarded with a 6'4 guy his femur would be the size of my one leg. Also my sister just got taller than me. But my upperbody is clearly what keeps me floating. Her legs are longer than mine posses me the fk off
