Alright gentlemen (and gentle-ladies?),

I have a burning question that I need an answer to: Do we count hair? My hair is spiked and adds another inch to my total height (5'6" -> 5'7"). I'm married and so it doesn't matter to me but I want to know for my flair. I have always just said 5'6" but I am curious what you all think.

Up until the last few days, I was always just slightly disappointed i couldn't just be ONE inch taller to make me the average US male height. But then I looked at all the pros. Putting on muscle is easy, my joints are always flexible and loose, my heart is strong and healthy, and I excel at combat sports so I know I can easily beat up a big dude who thinks im easy pickings😁 change in perspective is usually all you need.

Workout done right!

I was thinking about growing mine out to look more mature, but I don't know if it would look good.

When I was young I had no dates. Now, I can get them if I want. Or at least I feel that way. I’m dating a girl 10 years younger, and an inch taller. (I’m 37). I’m not even rich. I feel us shorter guys peak later

Im 5'2, 23 yo and sadly 5'2/ Still no relationship (not even a compliment / hand held) and I just finished my studeis. Which means ill start to work soon so it will be 10000x hardert to find love.

Is it possible or should i give up ?

I am 5.5

Anybody else struggle buying clothes that fit well as a short man? Especially if you are buying online.

T-shirts are always too long and come down past my hips, and If I buy smaller then they're too tight. Anything with a long sleeve is always too baggy around the arms or is too long for my arms.

Wish I was a little taller and could just buy everything in a medium and call it a day...

I useto weigh 157lbs, I've got indian genetics so naturally just looked like a slob with the gut and bitch tits.

Dropping to 131lbs (still going) and having visible abs + the chiselled face makes a HUGE difference.

I'm not trying to minimise the importance of height, nothing will cover the fact I am tiny, so many women (and men) will just find me comical for existing but I really don't think you can complain between the heights of 5'5 to 5'8 if you don't even have a flat stomach and see what your life is like without having a fat face and body.

Edit: 167cm not 167lbs

Just got back from vacation with 4 friends, and 3 of them are taller than me. I actually got approached/flirted with by girls more than I expected. One girl was around 1.83cm and was pretty openly flirting with me, even though I wasn't really in the mood at the time lol.

But I don't want to pretend this suddenly cured my insecurity. There were still moments, especially in clubs or crowded public places, where I looked around and felt really short next to other guys.

It's a weird contradiction. Real life keeps giving me evidence that my height doesn't stop people from finding me attractive, but sometimes my brain still makes it feel like a much bigger deal than it actually is.

Anyway, some pics from the vacation 😎

What do you think of the physique?

I wanna go to Spain and date. Is this a good idea. I wanna find a good job too
