they think it makes them more manly

>>10603888
Why do you think?

everyone who dresses like this is a manlet, but not every manlet dresses like this

I enjoy making craft beer in my kitchen and listening to the new mumford and sons album. I used to be into hardcore bands like the blood brothers, and senses fail but then the scene changed man...the scene is dead.

>>10604055
god just put it in the dumpster. i dont want to look at subhuman filth like this
im dead serious. this is irredeemable

>>10603888
anyone else see this?

Manlet here, can confirm. We have yearly meetings to revise the manlet dress code to best compensate for our height.

>>10604093
For you

I have seen far more average height guys dress like that simply because there's more of them.

Did a manlet steal you're gf or something?

>>10604093
really tho what is the best way to compensate for lack of height? im 5'9 with a very good face and pretty good style imo
i already always wear shoes that add like 3/4 to 1 inch but don't know what else I can do (other than hate myself) :/

>>10603888
is this guy like 3 ft tall?

>>10604163

Try not being a little bitch and accepting it for starters.

There's people dying of hunger daily and you complain that you are literally dead center average height for a healthy American.

Just did the math on bricks man is an estimated height of and a half feet tall

>>10604181
lol

>>10604163

>best way to compensate

Just be urself mayne :^)

If you're even remotely asian looking (not indians) you could pull of the slacker/comfy look you see in jap mags and literally everywhere in /fa/. No idea if blacks could pull it off as well but whites just look totes awks in it. Honestly just grow a pair seeing as you don't seem grown in anything else.

>>10603888
cuffed pants almost always look stupid.

>>10604145
underberated post

5'9 here. My jackets/coats are always thigh-high and maybe it's just an illusion but it seems to add some "heightiness" in me.

where I live all the manlets dress in basic monochrome and nikes

their stubby legs are cute

>>10604163
It really depends what you mean.

>Looking nice while short
Get shit that fits you well. Avoid cuffing if you can, but hey, do what you need to do. Also, have a decent weight/height balance. Super skinny + short makes you look a bit... feminine.

>HOW DO I COMPENSATE?
You don't. Trust me on this one, do what you came there to do and be just as proud and authoritative as you have to be. If you're constantly shying away from people it looks bad. If you're constantly trying to dominate others, you look like Napoleon.

At the end of the day, think less of it.

>>10604163
>6'2"
>wear huge nikes that add 2-3" when I go to parties because I know people do this and it's funny

>>10604163
move to a shorter country

I'm 5'9 in Spain and never even thought it was a factor in anything until I came across americans on the internet.

At first I was like "really? They care about height THAT much? LOL"
I mean yeah, here it's better to be tall, but I've never seen a case where someone was rejected for being under 6ft or 5'10. Under 5'7 is where it starts to get shaky.

>>10605096
Nah, it's not so much about that as much as it gets enough people pissed on both sides to just be easy bait.

Like 6 years ago it was all about circumcision, but that bait has grown rather stale.

>>10604371

i think it looks good

>tfw 5'5
>wouldn't care about my height all that much if it weren't for my god awful proportions

I'm never going to make it

>>10605129
>tfw 5'9
>small head, narrow hips, broad shoulders
>means in pics I look 6'1 and IRL I'll always be 5'9

>>10604371
Depends how you cuff 'em

>caring this much about something that can't be changed
>any year

/fa/ please

I used to kind of do that but at 5'4" I recognized how ridiculous that looked so now I go for a more basic monochrome thing and don't really care if it make me appear even more femenine and stuff. It's not like I'm gonna ever get a grill to like me in the first place.

>>10604371
no

>>10605156
The secret to getting girls as a manlet is to just not care/think about them. If you've got a sense of humor and know how to assert yourself then they'll come without you needing to chase them.

>>10605156
>at 5'4"

Christ man. If it makes you feel better one of my good friends was a manlet and now he's engaged to his womanlet gf.

>>10605096
Most people don't really care, actually. It's just a /fit/ meme that got out of control.

>>10605096
What's the average height in Spain?

I'm Dominican at about 5'11'' and I'm taller than almost every latino I encounter so if you need to move somewhere with short people try Latin America.

>>10605187
I don't think this is true.
>>10605194
Yeah of course it's not impossible but combined with all my other shit it just doesn't seem realistic to expect something to work out any time soon.

>>10605211
Have you tried it? Stop flapping your meat every time a girl says hi to you and get back to me in a couple of months.

Never put the pussy on a pedestal, that's the #1 rule.

>>10603888

im a manlet and i dont dress like that. that dude looks like a little kid

>>10605187

>normal fag advice

>>10605219
I'm not sure what meat flapping you're referring to but I'm pretty sure I don't do that.

>>10605231
>complains about no pussy
>doesn't want to get pussy this bad
I think you may be confused about your sexuality anon.

>>10605129
make it?

>>10603888
>>10604055
These don't even look too bad by normal society standards, these are just people who have accepted their physicality and have an appreciation for denim. Why does this concern you so much? your autism is showing
>>10604058

>>10605219
He's clearly stating he has other issues, you faggot.

>Never put the pussy on a pedestal, that's the #1 rule.
But what you say is true and I'm glad more people are starting to realize this. I'm 5'5 or ~166 cm and i've had cute girls (not overly slutty hot) wanting to get to know me more. Problem is, I'm generally a recluse, socially retarded dude. My general appearance and my personality collide and they get bored of me, i suppose. Funny thing is, I have no absolute problem with that. The only thing I have a problem with is my tendency to be reclusive, but nothing else.

>>10605053
>have a decent weight/height balance
>be just as proud and authoritative as you have to be
i disagree
acting manly when you're short makes you look kind of pathetic and overcompensating, while the androgynous, skinny, and friendly look can work quite well

>>10605283
>while the androgynous, skinny, and friendly look can work quite well

If you're a twink

Fuck outta here

>>10605288
i bet you lift for strength

>>10605240
i think i might be u know because like i want pussy but it isnt on my mind all the time like i do not care about not having a gf but im a virgin at 20

>>10605288
are you the /fit/fag with the gyno bieber boyfriend?

>>10605359
What?

>>10605288
is being a twink a bad thing?
i thought it meant a young, skinny, attractive gay man?
does it have a different meaning?

>>10605433
it's just /fit/ getting insecure

kek

American workwear gives them an excuse to wear boots that make them slightly taller therefore making them somewhat less manlet in their own mind.

>>10603888
looks like a little action figure, cute

>>10605187

This is "just b urself" tier advice.

>>10604163

5'9 aint even that short, the majority of people aren't going to give one fuck. I'm 5'9 and when I tell people, they're shocked that I'm not taller.

just wear some boots and accept what you got

>>10605171
too bad youre still not disproving him bc he said almost always

Partially agree. I knew a guy in hs he was 5'6 or 5'5 I think, and he always acted superior to anyone. It's really funny to see a short guy acting like he's a king. He didn't had too many friends tho.

>>10605210
I'd love to move to Costa Rica when I get my career going.

In Spain the average I'd say is 5'10. There's 25 people in my class, about 7 over 5'11, about 7 under 5'8, the rest it's in the 5'8-5'10 range.

>>10605096
>>10605187
>>10605210
>>10606855

people just need to chill the fuck out over a couple centimetres like jesus christ we're having guys in here talking about moving, YES MOVING, just to be taller than the average? like what the fuck your confidence will never grow the way you want and that's the only thing that's truly important.

im 5'6 how do i look good ?
I try to look like ian connor but with cheaper clothes. Saved some money and bouth some palace and supreme but thats about it. Chicks dig me but I'm shorter than half of them kek

>>10605053
>Also, have a decent weight/height balance. Super skinny + short makes you look a bit... feminine.

This. Trying to gain some weight now, tired of being seen as a toddler because I'm short and underweight.

Also avoiding anything too slim, especially slim-fit sweaters. Thank God winter is approaching and thick wool sweaters can come out now...

>>10607107
what're your stats?

>>10607107
172/55.

Those are like the stats for my perfect gf kek...

thats a pretty contradictory sentence.

>>10606780
Autism.

>>10606780
Did you mean mathlets?

>>10607821
no, they literally don't. I think it's you who needs to get out more. I live somewhere pretty arty where most people dress well but I'm not so socially isolated as to not be aware of how most of the population dress. Honestly, these workwear fits are definitely above the standard and clearly demonstrate some level of care and interest when it comes to clothes which I think is admirable or at least better than nothing.

so /fa/..

All the denim nuts I see in photos wear extremely balls tight jeans. I guess it's because of the modern trend favoring low rise jeans. It looks so bad for his proportion. Actually let's get rid of low rise all together and go back to natural rise jeans like Levi's or Wrangler.

>>10607830
fucking kek

>>10608505
i doubt it's the rise, if you buy levis or wranglers tight enough you can get them to look like that as well.

I'm 6'2 and I really don't know what you guys are talking about. Just don't be macho, try and be a modern, reserved man and don't try to dress in any particular fashion, just dress well. Also, subtle compensation gives the impression that you own your height but try to carefully remedy that supposed disadvantage, it's charming. Best advice would be to keep a very low bf% and dress in very fitted and timeless attire, one that outlines your slim physique. Lastly, tall people are totemized by their stature, while short people have the very real benefit of showcasing their personage. Also, plane rides are comfortable and you'll attract less cunty women.

But he converted pixels to bricks to inches, hesvnot counting bricks, just pixels, although I don't know If the angle of the camera affects anything.

Itt: tall people trying to feel like they fit in somewhere for once because theyre a few inches taller than other people. Also insecure short people taking advice from tall people who are simultaneously stroking their own egos while giving said advice.
