Has anyone noticed that if you ask a lot of guys their height they'll say their 6'0" when in actuality they're like 5'8" or 5'9" at best? Also I talk to guys who are like 5'2 or 5'3" claiming they are 5'7. I think it's ridiculous, it's like if your gonna exaggerate your height at least make it something believable.
-
I don't know many who lie an extreme amount. At most it's a 2 inch difference.

I'm 5'6.7"; can I say I'm 5'7? ;D

My old roomate claimed he was 6'1" when I was at least 3" if not more taller than him.
A co-worker told me he was 6'0" and I told him there was no way he was that tall cause he would be close to me in height and that he was 5'9" at best. I guess people figured to go all out until someone calls them on it.

Here's what I don't get; my sitting height is about 4 cm greater than your's, but you are 16 cm taller than me. It's weird how nature works...

Yeah but it doesn't bother me. I'm only aiming to be 6'2.5-6'4". I may do 4cm on my tibias and 4cm on my femurs which would put me at a finger nail above 6'4".

You may just have a real fat ass! That might not be nature. Maybe too many trips to the buffet! :D
-
Almost everyone lies by 2 inches or so, almost no one is spot on. But The examples you gave are pretty extreme.
-
Maybe people who claim to be taller have never measured their height. That was my case several years ago during my high school days. I thought I was 167cm and claimed to be 5'6 but when I actually measured my height several years later I turned out to be 162cm.
It would be alright if you claim to be 2-3cm taller than your original height since you will be wearing shoes which adds several cm.
Ouch that's gotta hurt. You have to use a scale in the doctors office. You can't go to 7-11 or put a pencil on your head because that ads an inch to your height. I guess everytime my parents measured me as a child I was actually 1" shorter!
-
Maybe, but I doubt it. I can clearly feel my pelvic bone touching the seat when I sit down.
-
Why are you here you are 6'1 lol.
-
I'm 5'6 ish and I say 5'7 because in shoes I am 5'7 pretty much not hard to lie. The only difference is that most guys who are 5'7 who have perfect proportions look a lot taller so that's what people think about I feel.

I'm actually fine with people exaggerating their height but I can't help but say something if they say they are 6'0" when they look 5'9" at best. In an online dating article I read on building your profile, they said its not okay to lie but it's okay to add an inch to your actual height.

It's really hard to estemimate people height I'm never sure if the tall guy in front of me is 185 or 190.

Using inches is easier than Metric. But I look at their shoes and think of 3 heights they could possibly be and most the time they're at the end or a 1/2" higher from what I estimate. I think the most you could get away with is 2".

u can do that only if u're around 5'7 or 6'2, if u're 6'0 it becomes harder
-
6'0 always looks really tall to me because every 5'10-5'11 guy rounds up.
I can always tell 6'2 because people don't lie and also, it is noticeably tall but is not imposing.
When I see people my own height I can never believe that I am the same!

Yeah. I'd say by the time your 6'2", most guys usually stop exaggerating. I was just 1" shy of the height exaggeration cut off!
-
it seems people who use the imperial system lie more than the ones who use the metric system.
I'm not used to asking people's height, but i heard some frriends claiming their height
175-178 cm claim 180 cm
180 cm claim 182 cm
in fact people tend to round up their height while in the us they just add 2 inches to their height lol.
According to some studies, men inflate their height by 2 cm

I've met foreigners who exaggerate. But I'd say most people in USA will claim 6'0" whether they are close to it or not. And if they're short, they'll say their the closest short height which is socially acceptable.

Why are you doing this surgery? Cant you be succesfull in life at your courrent height? will anything fix itself with the added height?. What will you get that already dont have exluding 5 cm in tibia?.
Weird man very very weird.
You think we shorter want to do this surgery ? its a necessity. You just do it because..i honestly cant find a legit reason why you are doing this to yourself.

There are subjective reasons .Height neurosis can happen with a man even 2 meters tall

He already answered this question.
I said several times before that my ll is arbitrary. Allthough my parents would do stupid s**t to me in regards to it cause I grew really fast and ended up being a lot shorter than I expected. I was uncomfortable with how fast I grew but slowed down at about 15 and finished at 16 allthough it's very common for boys to finish growing at 16. I may have dramatized my reason for CLL a bit but I hated being so tall when I was young. I want to be at least 6'2" which I'm not far from but probably gonna aim for 6'3" with Salameh but I doubt I'll be able to pay him in full so I'll probably have to find a way o finance the operation.

The reason can be subjective but whether or not it is a rational reason, the answer is no.

I do my best to pretend you don't exist but of you'll help me get a girlfriend I just might give you a chance. I go to the gym and dress fine. Just go to Nordstrom and copy the mannequins can't go wrong there. I've approached women at bars but most turned me down honestly because I'm into Mexican women mostly and you never see a fine Mexican woman with a caucasian male for whatever reason. They'll be with Mexican guys then Black men. I don't see many women I'm interested in when I go out in the big wide world but when I do I approach the ones I like, we have a good talk she gives me her number and I call or text and it ends there. It's a pain in the ass to get a woman out of the door and on a date. I've fked a few girls in my life. About 2 9s or 10d and the rest were about 6s or 7s but never had a girlfriend. My sister would tell me that women wouldn't be interested in me when we were kids and to not go for really attractive women but I should be able to get one. The only reason that I could think of why I can't get one is I live with family and only make about 20-30k per year after taxes.

e. About 2 9s or 10d and the rest were about 6s or 7s but never had a girlfriend.

It was supposed to be 10s. It's easy to mistype using my iPhone. And it's a hotness scale from 0-10.

I know a 5'2 chick whom claims she's 5'5. It is weird how people do that.
-
Never met anyone who lied about their height but plenty of people who don't know how tall they are.

You mean by a huge amount right? Because almost everyone adds an inch. I'm talking about people who add a large amount it wouldn't got unoticed.
-
No I've actually never heard anyone lie only people that don't know. Asked a tall friend how tall he is and he just said "190 -something". Another guy I asked said "between 180-190 somewhere".

6'7? You lucky son of a bitch lol

6'7" actually sound like s disadvantage to me to be honest unless you want to play basketball or be a MMA fighter. Ideal is 6'2"-6'4".
-

I think "tall" places like germany or the netherlands just don't care much. I've heard it's a bigger issue in spain, the UK and france but I don't know. Women around here are more forgiving as well -they're kind of forced to when you're 185CM tall you can't afford to ignore good men just because they're shorter or if you're 177CM you'll be taller than a lot of men in heels.
6'7" actually sound like s disadvantage to me to be honest unless you want to play basketball or be a MMA fighter. Ideal is 6'2"-6'4".
All 200CM+ men I've spoken to (not that many) said there is both advantages and disadvantages but that the former far outweigh the latter.
-
I'd still rather be 6'7 than 5'6-5'7.
-
I'd still rather be 6'7 than 5'6-5'7.
Lol. I'd rather be 6'7" than 6'0" or 6'1". But would rather be 6'3"-6'5" over 6'7".
-
I'd rather be 6'0 than 6'7 but 6'4>6'0
-
Yeah 6ft2-6ft5 seems to be the sweet spot
-
Yeah 6ft2-6ft5 seems to be the sweet spot
It is. 6'0" and 6'1" aren't actually bad heights , just not tall enough IMO.
-
I'd probably be happy with 6'1, to be honest. Any taller, and powerlifting would become far too difficult as a sport for me.

6'2" would probably still be okay. I think usually after 6'2" is when it becomes excessive.

To me:
6'0 A-
6'1 A
6'2 A+
6'3 A+
6'4 A
6'5 A-
Think about the positives
6'0 if wants to be taller can just use 2cm lift and becomes 185
6'1 Same about this, can reach 6'2 if feels short
But the truth is if u are at least a solid 6'0 you'll be seen as a man and not as a man trapped in a child's body, if people are 183 at night and want more height its perfectly fine but the truth is you need that extra height to show up your physique and appear more imposing simply because you're lazy to ignite your brain to perfect your skills to become unique and attractive, its like in a fight instead of perfecting your attack/defence/tactics you just focus on attack and do other things superficially

I don't think my height neurosis is the main reason why Ive been insuccessful in life. I do play piano and sing and am going to start an internship in '15. I think even with my height neurosis I could get a girlfriend but something feels wrong and the women I attract are usually insecure. I have gotten a few cool girls numbers but it would end there and they would answer the first few calls and texts I sent them but never got them out the door and on a date.

This is how I'd pin us scandinavians (20-50 years). I think it's really accurate actually.
-
For the U.S.A, you'd have to adjust it by sliding all the grades down one category (ex. 175-180 cm would be "very average").

This may disappoint many of you but the world average height for male age 20 and older is 168.14cm. It doesn't matter what many of you want or think, the facts speak for itself. Scandinavian is just a small area. I probably never visit there this lifetime so probably wouldn't see the tall giants there.
The website is http://www.interbasket.net/news/4385/2009/09/average-height-by-country-males-20-years/
The data for height and population are given. I calculated the % of the population of each country based on the total. I then took that percentage and times it to the height of that country. The total is added up and it is 168.14cm. That means the average height of the world population is 168.14cm. Okay, given this article might be old since it was written in 2009 but even if you believe that human male has increased in height over the past 5 years, the world average height for male would still be around 5'7.

This may disappoint many of you but the world average height for male age 20 and older is 168.14cm. It doesn't matter what many of you want or think, the facts speak for itself. Scandinavian is just a small area. I probably never visit there this lifetime so probably wouldn't see the tall giants there.
The website is http://www.interbasket.net/news/4385/2009/09/average-height-by-country-males-20-years/
The data for height and population are given. I calculated the % of the population of each country based on the total. I then took that percentage and times it to the height of that country. The total is added up and it is 168.14cm. That means the average height of the world population is 168.14cm. Okay, given this article might be old since it was written in 2009 but even if you believe that human male has increased in height over the past 5 years, the world average height for male would still be around 5'7.

Hmm the average height for in my country is almost the same as in Sweden and I don't feel short at all, hmmmmmm, crazy crazy :o

Steve just looked creepy. He's in total apathy and every movement he makes is rigid. You can tell he's nervous. He's just over 6'3" so I doubt height is on his mind all the time like with us.
-
Sorry, I joke a lot. This video is hilarious and it gives me the chuckle every time I watch it.
Btw, is that what California women looks like? (like the movie).. I imagine that there are a lot more hispanic women down there now.

The white women are in the prosperous areas. Most of the time in the south bay it's Mexicans and Asians/Indian Asians.

I agree with you that on a world-scale, 168 cm is average, but for most of the developed western world, about 176 cm is average.

Yeah, if we like to use white male as the only standard, then the average height in all of western countries is around 176cm according to the data.
I took out all the non-european countries and re-calculate. The total average height is 175.41.

Ajax2thousand20 Thanks for the info! It's very similar to here. We have 3 main suburban cities, for the wealthy, middle-class and the poor. Many young people age 18-28 live in downtown. That's where I mostly hang-out.
-
Yeah I'm in the same boat. Allthough I feel like I'm getting to old for some youngster women so I may need to look for women in different places. Gonna probably go to Vegas sometime next year or Latin America to look for women.
-
So 5'11 in 1 inch loafers? hitting 6'0 Whats your thoughts on that ?
im wondering if 5'11 is enough for people not to give to s about height.
-
People aren't going to care about your height past 5'9 or 5'8.
-
People aren't going to care about your height past 5'9 or 5'8.
Some tall women will. The 6'0" + guy is senior to a 5'9" guy in a woman's mind. Allthough a lot of bimbo women say the guys they date height must be 6'2" and above but if she's 1/2" shorter than you, she'll be too stupid to tell how tall you are.

So 5'11 in 1 inch loafers? hitting 6'0 Whats your thoughts on that ?
im wondering if 5'11 is enough for people not to give to s**ts about height.
Yes it's a very common height, around here people say that the "average joe" (medelsvensson) is 180CM, thin and blonde.
-
Hmm the average height for in my country is almost the same as in Sweden and I don't feel short at all, hmmmmmm, crazy crazy :o
Don't know where you're from but I don't feel that short either. We're not giants just a few CM (maybe 3-4) taller on average.

For the young crowd the average height in USA goes up to 5ft11 at least. Look at this, in USA when race and age is controlled the average height goes up: U.S. 178.9 cm (5 ft 10 1⁄2 in) White Americans, 20–39 2003-2006
This is from 2003-2006, so you could see why I think that 10 years later the average for 18-20 year olds has gone up to at least 181. Also when you go to parties the average height goes up even more because on average shorter people are less popular and stay in more. Sorry if I hit any tickle bones but I just want everyone to know the truth and not be deluded.

Here is a an earlier post when I disputed someone else who made the same claim without any facts to back it up:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--This is inaccurate the average height in developed countries has risen since the beginning of the 20th centuray at a rate of about 1CM every decade. That increase slowed down in the 1980's to about a fifth of the speed. For example the swedish average of 20-29 year olds was 180CM in 1980 and 181CM in 2011. There is not enough data yet to say if that increase has stopped completely or continues to rise at a slow rate of about 1CM every 30-40 years.
Most statisticians agree that it won't go above 183CM at most but it's more probable that it stabilizes between 181-182CM. After that it may shrink or remain no one knows. The only country that hasn't experinced a slowdown in growth rate is the netherlands hence why they are the tallest nation on earth. However it is very unlikely that the average will exceed 185CM naturally as stature above that height is incresingly detremental to individual health.
If I had to guess I'd say most populations will reach an average of 177-183CM if given sufficient acess to health care and nutrition.
To put these numbers in a realistic context: Statistically an average of 181 mean that 97,8% of the population will be within 2 standard deviations (7CM) of the mean i.e roughly 98% of all swedes are below 195CM and 68,2% are between 176CM and 188CM. If I were 190CM I'd be taller or equal in height to about 9 out of 10 swedes.
So how tall is tall? I would say 85th percentile or "top 15%" which is about 187CM or more.--

Don't you all have jobs , life , girl friends , etc ! ... And yes I come here but only to fun news about LL , it never cross my mind what is the perfect height , what women gonna like , what height would stop me from feeling like a little bitch around taller men , u gonna be a little bitch even if u become 6'7 around other men .
Nope. By the time I have my 4-5cm lengthening, I'll be thinking of other things.
-
So u gonna wait till u gain 4 cm and think about other things , thx for proving my point Adios .

Easier said than done I'm afraid

Yeah I'm in the same boat. Allthough I feel like I'm getting to old for some youngster women so I may need to look for women in different places. Gonna probably go to Vegas sometime next year or Latin America to look for women.
You're only 28! The golden age for men is around 28-40. This is when men fully bloom in wisdom and maturity. Have you thought of working up your skincare routine so save yourself up for LL? After LL, you can start pursuing your lofty goals of hitting on latino women. Asian women can be curvy too if you hit on the right one.

He's already better than Dicaprio. Isn't Tom Cruise the highest paid actor in history? (check the link below) He wouldn't be as successful if it weren't for his height. He got a tremendous support from the short-sympathetic people and the short-community despite his lacklustre acting ability.

What does skin care have to do with LL? I do get pedicures once a month but no face masks. I hit on Latina women all the time. I'm a little bit into the club scene because that's where women look the hottest allthough again I'm being unrealistic, most women look their best at the club/bar because they are looking to get laid themselves.

Everything actually.. if your goal is to hit on women. Girls care about your face as much as your body if not even more.
The most shocking moment of my LL experience wasn't the part when I found out my gf was cheating on me back home.. it was when this guy who is also from California who lengthened 10cm told me his real age. I was going to call him uncle (asian etiquette). But he told me he was only 25! But he looked like he was in his 40s with face full of wrinkles, beard and long hair. I had a stupefied look on my face. He thought I was impressed by his 10cm. I thought even if he is now taller than Dr. Sarin (5'11) he wouldn't get any girls when he come back home.
Limb lengthening is a very stressful process and will accelerate your age. Not only the pain, the experience couple with all the pain medication you will be taking - all of this will wreck a havoc on your liver and make you age prematurely. A lot of guys don't know but when I see their Facebook photos before LL and after LL, they look way older.
I'm not being gay but I just happen to have a good understanding of women. Women cares about the face just as much as the body. A lot of men at my gym disagree with me. They think that only the body matters. They take steroid and have leathery skin. But they are also the same guys who only hang out with every other guys at the gym every day.

Actually, I'm trying to save up for my next LL. I find that if you put your mind on your LL goal, you will save up much faster. If I don't go on this website, I will likely go outside and spend more money.
Here is a an earlier post when I disputed someone else who made the same claim without any facts to back it up:
I know. That's why I don't bother disputing with anyone here. They just saying whatever without any backup. I always have backup for my claims. That's why I know that I am right.

Is Sarin 5'11"? He doesn't look it but then again I have nothing to compare him with. I'm only doing 4-5cms with LON so I don't think I'll age to quick but then again I don't want to get cky with this procedure. According to 1 member, I can get out significantly quicker doing 4cms over 5+ cms. But anyway if you know women so well how come you never see a Mexican female (assuming your from USA) white men? A lot of women do care about good looking men but most men are not tall and good looking so they settle on what they can get a hold of.

What's that now? Are you sure about that, does it happen to everyone, how bad is it, should I give up on my dreams of being taller?

Dont be worry my friend, you should consult all of this stuff with your doctor. IF you gave up ,you would be sorry for your life forever
-
I think he's trying to talk us out of doing ll. Allthough your body would probably correct the aging process depending on how much you lengthen. Stick to 3-5cms and you'll be fine and maybe 7.5 max.

I think the "aging" of CLL is temporary and most likely due to many sleepless nights and stress. Once you're done with that you should be fine. During finals back in college I had constant all nighters, stress, and unhealthy eating habits, and during that time I started losing hair and my face was sunken in. Once it was over and I was able to relax again my hair loss stopped and my face no longer looked corpse-like.

Hey, I initially brought up this topic because you said you weren't able to hit on younger girls and was consider moving to another city.
Also, I'm more like the Socrate of dating. I have a lot of ideas and scheme but have a hard time of applying my idea in practice. Same with LL, I'm only 89% recovered. Before I could do a long-jump of 5 meters but now I can't do that. I know what I need to do to be able to jump that far but with school, work and other commitments, it's hard to train to be completely recovered.
KiloKAHN Right on. I agree with what you said. But just imagine that instead of just having 2-3 sleepless night to study for an exam and a few cup of coffee, you undergo a painful surgery and are put on a load of medication for 6 months. That is a load of stress on your body.
What's that now? Are you sure about that, does it happen to everyone, how bad is it, should I give up on my dreams of being taller?
No. You shouldn't. Well, I can't say it happens to anybody. I have to keep my friends info confidential. But I can tell you it did happen to me :(
Weird question, what products do you recommend to reverse aging? Allthough my CLL is gonna be short since I'm aiming for 4-5cms on Tibias and maybe 4cms in Femurs.
This is your PM to me. Hope you don't mind if I share it. Good question. But no one knows how to reverse aging at the moment. If I know, I would probably be the richest man in the world by now or be some model's best friend. But some common sense applies. Aging is caused by
1. Your natural biological clock. That means even if you don't do anything, you naturally age as times pass by. Your body has an innate clock that sets your body to secret a certain hormone or undergo a certain change at a certain period in your life (ie. puberty).
2. Sun. The sun emits harmful ray (I don't know but you get the idea)
3. Lifestyle. Your food choice, daily activities and exercises.
Well, you can't change number 1. But you have control over number 2 and number 3. You live in a very sun intensive area. Start out by protecting your face with a daily sunscreen with SPF of over 30. Exfoliate your skin once in a while with Retina cream or use glycolic acid. Try both. Both of these increase your skin rate of renewal. For food, cut out meat and animal products completely. Stick with alkaline food, which is also good for your skin.
There is no magic pill in the world at the moment that will help you reverse aging. The best you can do is just take a bunch of antioxidant and hope that will alleviate the free radical in your body. These supplements include
Jarrow Nac - precursor to your body glutathione production. Gluthathione is your body's natural antioxidant.
PQQ - another anitioxidant to protect and extends the life of your DNA. Take it with a coenzyme CQ+.
Resveratrol - You should look this up on youtube. There is some studies which shows that this supplement increase the lifespan of rats.
... make sure you have an adequate intake of omega 3 and other vitamin and mineral.
Try this... and several months later, you will look younger. After that, you will go to a latin bar and speak a little Spanish to a latino you like. And you will be surprised by her reaction towards you.

I don't think most 21 year old women mind dating men in their late 20s. Allthough a lot of them are immature and stupid. It's usually the 35+ year old men that freak them out.
-
I think lying 1-2 cm is OK? maybe 3 cm??
eg my morning height is 174+. I lengthen 8 cm. 182 cm is my final height (maybe 181 cm).
I would probably say im 183; sounds a nicer number.
if its a girl asking, 1-2 cm they can't tell the difference! because they are much shorter. then probably I might say 185.
if there's contradiction, just say 185 is height with SHOES and 182 is height without.
it seems that a lot of celebrities and NBA players either lie their height or they are actually saying their height in SHOES.
-
which makes me wonder, is it really true the NBA players say their height with shoes on? I mean, come on, when they are measured, its with shoes!
also, whitney Houston and Mariah carey and celine dion.. what are their real heights? I think Mariah carey is NOT 175 cm but rather 170cm!
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1OlwYJ364k
you can see Mariah has higher heels but she appears shorter by 2-3 cm.
Whitney Houston's autopsy report says that she is 168 cm. (this should be her tallest height since she fell into the tub and was in a horizontal position, so fluids can enter her vertebrae column, and she was found dead not soooooo long later to affect her height!)
Thus, Mariah should be about 166, or the most 167 cm!
Considering whitney was pretty old by then (could have been age and her drug use), lets say she lost a few CM of height. Mariah could probably at most only be 170? and NOT 175.
Myth debunked. (or lie, whatever)
-
No, you can lie by up to 5 cm. Girls are really bad at reading height.
-
I honestly think adding 1-2" isn't lying about your height it's more of an exaggeration. To me lying is only a lie when if the truth is found someone could be harmed. Even if you do exaggerate your height by 3" it's just foolish. Most people wouldn't get hurt even if you did that. I just think all your doing by adding more than 1" of height is making yourself look foolish.
-
Too many people lie about their height which is very normal nowadays, you see 5'11/5'10 guys claiming to be 6'0, and if you're 6'0 and u're being honest about it u risk to be considered short, which leads people into saying they're 6'1.
As Ajax said u can get away with 2 cm but more than that is just pathetic.
if 6'0 is your night height and u're obsessed with numbers just tell u're 6'1, they won't be smart enough to ask if it's morning or night , if they do just say you don't remember
But adding 1 inch to your morning height is just pathetic
-
Lol. I'd rather be 6'7" than 6'0" or 6'1". But would rather be 6'3"-6'5" over 6'7".
Another factor is height and personality have a causative and harmonious relationship. What this means is that
you will feel better being very tall if you are naturally very insensitive and extroverted... "warrior" type personality, I know some tall guys guys who carry this quite well.
I know small guys who are very feminine and sensitive and being short really suits them.. they can go under the radar all the time and be the on the level "sweet guy" all the time. They would have real mental problems being my height for sure.. in fact they have been freaked out before spending time with me and seeing me fend off personal comments by complete strangers all night... it really has hardened me but it has also knocked my confidence somewhat as I am always waiting for an attack.

I'm the masculine warrior type, for sure. Apparently, that doesn't suit me.
-
No you should never give up on your dream of growing taller they look older because there taller than they were
-
I've said this plenty of times on this forum but yes most guys lie about their height and there's a good reason why it's so easy to get away with especially if you are taller than the vast majority of women.
Many people fail to factor in the length from their eyes to the top of their height. If you are short this makes you perceive the world as shorter than you actually are.Because of this and because most people are too dumb to realise this you can get away with adding two inches to your height.
If you have the surgery and reach 5ft 7 say,you will be taller than almost 90% of women in the west.At this height you can get away with adding one or two more inches to your height.
I've never met a guy in my life that hasn't claimed he was at least 6ft despite this only occuring in roughly 1 in 10 men in the West LMAO. I believed them intially until I saw mine and their reflection in a shop window only to realise that vast majority of guys are between 5ft 7 to 5ft 10 in reality.
So take my concept and apply it to yourself.
-
True people lie, like when ajax lies about his saying he's 185 cm but he's actually more closer to 180 cm and then cries like a bitch when he feels average
-
if hes only 180 and he quoted with the assumption that he was 185 that these 5'9" at best guys claim 6 foot that would mean they are 5'7" at most claiming it which is hard to believe
-
Most people Ive seen lie about there height are average height people if youre very short or very tall you will most likely tell the truth because either it doesnt matter in the case of tall person or you recognize youre short as a short guy and give the most accurate height because its harder to lie and make someone believe youre taller than you are or at least they are scarred of getting exposed so they tlel the truth
-
My doctor thought I was 6 feet (which my growth charts) indicated the trend. But I told her, I wish, and corrected her my height at 5’10 (est. 5’9.5). Going to get 8 cm femurs, cuz I want what my potential height will be!
-
Yeah, some they do lie.
When you know they're lying just make them believe it.
I know someone who, having my same height, added 5 cm full.
