Actually today I saw two very very tall men (they looked 6'7" or 6'8" and they were not skinny either. I never realized how awkward and goofy the look. Fuck me his hands were huge. Good luck finding nice clothes, they were both dressed like shit.

Me myself, I am 6'1" and I'd say the sweet spot is 6'2" and 6'3". I wish I was a little taller. Anything over 6'4" and you'll look like an awkward faggot. Also enjoy dying early.

[Anonymous No.13164867]

5'11"-6'3" is the sweet spot. From an everyday life point-of-view, 6'1" or 6'2" is probably ideal. Psychologically, most people who are 6'1" or 6'2" would love to be 6'3".

5'9", 5'10", 6'4" and 6'5" is ok if you have some redeeming factors (good-looking, rich, smart, funny, athletic, ...).

Anything below 5'8": you will have to compensate somehow. Your pool of potential partners will also be reduced. It's still possible to find a girl, but you will have a hard time.

Anything above 6'6": Other people won't perceive your height as a big problem, but you encounter difficulties in your everyday life (clothes, public transportation seats, planes, ...). Kissing regular-sized girls will feel awkward and, unless you have high self-esteem, you will find yourself in situations where your height draws unwanted attention to you (for example when dancing in a club).

I've never been into tall guys, always thought around 6ft is best, until I got my now fiancee, who is 6ft 4

I don't know what it is, but walking through the street, the way people look at him makes me wet. He walks into a room and walks down on everyone. I never considered height to be important before. I feel so small next to him, it's intimidating and it's good.

Before him, I didn't want to date anyone over 6ft 2, but if we were to ever break up I think I'd have a problem dating anyone under 6ft 3.

From personal experience, it doesnt really matter that much.

I think the perfect height is 6ft, because you can fuck tall and short girls.

But that said, being tall does not instantly turn you into some chad, and I know a couple of 5'9 guys who fuck some other girl every week.

Regarding girls, just dont be shorter than them and you will have a chance.

Smaller things general look nicer. When you get into tall territory, most clothes don't fit right, most shoes look bulky and ugly. If you're really talk you risk clown shoe territory. Also if you're short you can pass off a lot of girls clothes that still shit dudes fine. Being tall is only good for seeing in a crowd and chasing women.

Scientifically, the ideal height for humans based on them as a species is around 5'9"

You can't keep increasing human height without evolution changing the human overall into something else. Being 6'8" is never healthy. Your heart will work hard, your joints will suffer, you'll be sluggish and you'll generally have overall poorer health.

Aesthetically around 6'0" is ideal. It's the best of all worlds, not short, but not tall enough to have negative life impacts.

It's based on calories to body ratio/energy size, it especially applies to mma fighters. Say for instance a 6'8" person requires a lot more calories to maintain weight and muscle mass but the higher amount of fats within the higher amount of calories negatively affects the impact on organs.

5'9" equals efficient power to size, speed, heart efficiency and caloric maintenance to sustain that but still be healthy.

People only say 6'1" - 6'3" is ideal because they have been conditioned by the runway modelling height. I say this as a 6'2" person and I much prefer that over 5'9" but as a species, it's still the ideal height.

Generally yes but think more...6'5 than 6'1. There are various reason for high mortality in bigger people (especially men): more cells in your body equals more that can go wrong, higher bodyweight requires more calories and higher basal metabolic rate, ie just living and dying faster, and perhaps the organs dont scale up as much as they need to making heart problems more likely.

[Anonymous No.13170337]

depends on what you want to be ideal for.

Depends on what brands you like wearing and which kind of people you want to attract too I guess.

I'm kinda used to japanese sizing for clothes, and my own favorite guys don't even hit 5'9 for the most part and they still look cool af.

Also, the bigger you are the easier it is to see if your clothing is good quality or not. If you're too tall (or too large), you won't be able to get away with wearing cheaper stuff.

I'd say maybe 6'0 is best if you're skinny and want a good compromise between being able to wear stuff and not getting called a manlet/getting laughed at by girls (though in my humble 5'9 female opinion, shorter guys are very nice)

yea I think that too...usually i think someone is taller than me, until I either get up close to them, or actually see my reflection beside them....conversely, I have been certain I was taller than at least a few guys, from far away, but as we approach eachother, I realize he was like significantly bigger than me, like at least 6'6...
>6'0 guy
I know I am exactly 6 feet, when I stand with normal erect posture....so I know who is taller or shorter than 6 feet lol. I think I am honestly, in the tiny minority, being exactly 6'0, because I have not met alot of people who are the exact same height as me.

but it's funny when I see really tall guys, they somehow know, that I am where "tall begins", guys don't look tall to me, usually, unless they are like over 6'6....if I actually have to crane my neck up to look into a guy's eyes, that to me doesn't happen very often....but when it does, I know that that guy is very tall...like +6'6

being exactly 6'0 it basically let's me either be the tallest of the average guys...or the shortest of the tall guys....either way, since most men claim they are 6'0 if they are close to it, it's funny, when I know I am exactly, and I have met guys numerous times before, who always say I must be 6'2, because it lets them believe they are 6'0...

there is no shortage of 5'10 5'11 guys.....theyre everywhere

that's why, when I see a guy who looks very tall, but then he's not as tall as me, I know he must be like 5'11....which in reality, is quite tall, but not really.

6'6+ to me is like objectively huge, like, you are in the <1% if you are that tall.

This. 5'11 guys get called manlet online but I'm 5'11.5 (around 6'1 with shoes) and taller than 80% of guys I see irl(UK). 5'11 is a great height to have.

6'2, it's the tallest you can get while still universally looking good. Naturally 6'4 is better if the guy's frame is filled out, but that gets exceedingly rarer the higher you get in height. Despite the protestations of /fa/, being a lanky skelly does not look good. That doesn't mean you need to be built like JJ Watt, but being a gawky fuck looks bad. 6'2 is about as tall as you can reliably get without looking like a gawky fuck. Plus you can probably fit most things, and I'm not talking about clothes. Cars, seats etc.

5'10 - 6'3, im 6'1 and imo its perfect. Tall without drawing attention to myself unless im wearing boots. Walking around in public is nice because im usually a couple inches above the majority of people walking around. Any taller than 6'3 and parts of your body start to get out of proportion like hands and feet.

It's the ideal, right before the too tall cutoff.
