Posted: 10/20/2006 2:56:01 PM | | Ugh..as a really tall female...I have to say..this is crazy. The extent of said procedure, and the damage it can do..is it really worth it? Not to mention..if said guy is naturally 5'5..he's gonna look pretty deformed with an extra 10" of legs...sheesh. The rest of the body would be WAY outta proportion. Even Dolly Parton and Pamela Anderson had to have some of their implants removed because they were too top heavy. Be happy and comfortable with who you are...the right person WILL come along. Why deform your body in search of something more? | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:05:17 PM | Why do people put so much emphasis on not being perfect? I hate to tell you this, but the way I look at it...if someone doesn't love you for your insides...they aren't worth your time. We're all flawed in one way or another. Some are shorter than others, some taller. Some have droopy boobies, some stand out, some have a sagging butt, some have a perfect one. Who cares?? So what!! Find me a perfect man/woman, and I guarantee, over time, you will find a flaw in them...whether it's inside or out. In otherwords, don't worry, be happy!

Thats like asking a woman what she would think if she found out the man had a hair transplant!!
Now. Where is that plastic surgeon??
P.S. You cannot make a persons height increase by 10 inches by breaking his bones. I mean think about it. He would have a really short torso and legs tall and skinny. The muscles will not stretch that far! | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:24:36 PM | Ok, this might be slighty off-topic.
Actually, most guys don't care if a girl is shorter or taller. Whether it's 1 inch or 10. They only care because they know that most girls are uncomfortable with it. I doubt you will find any male profiles with height requirements. However, like "dash" said, about 90 % of the female ads mention "tall", usually in the first sentence.
Now, while it's true that this is not an issue for the majority of men because they're taller than most women, this very fact makes it even more difficult for the few shorter guys (why go short if you have a large selection of taller ones?). A lot of girls may say: "I'm not that shallow if it's otherwise a great guy". But you have to consider that height is one of those first impression things unlike other attributes such as humor, intelligence, education, financial stability, etc. (usually also desired by girls) which become basically insignificant. A girl might go for a short guy if he has a great character. But characters take a while to figure out, so it won't even get to that stage because the height issue already turned her off. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:36:02 PM | I agree with yahh Roo  but seriously if that actually happened in reality I would be pissed and not because of the height I mean really who choses their partner on height alone. Personally I could care less on height. I would be pissed because there would be more issues at hand like trust. Secrets are things that should come out in the beginning of a relationship not a year down the road | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:37:53 PM | OP: you are 5'7". The average height for wimmin is 5'5". You are tall enough to suit. You would be tall enough to suit if you were 5'2" for many of us, for its not of pressing importance..neither is the presence of hair, your skin color, or whether you can wiggle your ears or not.
"Its not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog."
Cultivate good will, respect, trust, honor and courage in yourself and others. 'Presence and stature' are not physical attributes. Without them, a tall man may pass as a ghost in a crowd, while short man will gain the respect of men and women who are stilled to listen to the import of his words. Such men command the attention of all eyes by the metric of action and deed.

You sir, are insecure. I hate to use a over-worked phrase, but in this case, it works.
Get over it. You have no idea of 'Roos personal life. I assure you, there are many men here who are well over 6 foot and they do not enjoy a rich and varied love life because of it.
'Tis a small thing, a minor point of preference. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:51:45 PM | My first thought was this thread was written by someone that has found his height is a problem .....
SO.....
First thing I check the profile and the height.... Then I read the rest of the story!
I compare the story to my life in a sense ... years ago I lost weight ... a lot of weight ( look at the profile and you can tell I gained it back )
But then in 87 I told my husband to be that I had lost weight and also showed him my pictures ... I had also had surgeries to remove the excess skin so looking at me .. you really could not tell. I explained how I could gain the weight back ... NO PROBLEM I love you ... more to love .... blah blah ... well it was not long after that I was not as active as I once was.. since the man I married was in a wheel chair .. we did not do things I used to do. Then it was eat this eat this a little won't hurt .... I know I can blame anyone .. but what happened was suddenly I was FAT LAZY B----- years and years later it ended of course ...
However I understand your thoughts.... it is strange thing .... people do look first on the outside...
At present I am 5' 8" maybe tall for a woman ... and shortly I am going to meet a "new" friend .. he is 5' 6" we will see ... seems at 51 yrs old I have grown up a bit and I try to look at people not sizes....
My mind changed not someone's height ... and my weight is once again dropping too I think or hope for a lifetime .... so far 88 lbs this year ... So I am certainly happy!!!
Best of luck to all Fishing people....

Posted: 10/20/2006 3:55:30 PM | | If I loved him, then no, it wouldn't matter at all...looks are skin deep - they fade over time, and there has to be more to hold a relationship together than superficial things. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 4:03:59 PM | | Sorry OP ~ I did read the entire post, but the first line leaves me out of the study. Ideally, 5'9" - 5'10" is my comfort zone. I had one b/f that was 5'5" and he was still quite a lot taller than me. I do have some interesting weight-appropriate preferences, but height is much more a hinderance than a "must have" for me.

Posted: 10/20/2006 5:51:14 PM | quote from asmoothguyfrom80:
BTW, average height of a man in the US is 5'9". I dunno about mexico, where im a friggin GIANT, but up here, 5'9" is the average height of an adult male.
----

Believe it or not.
I was researching the internet and my internet is largely Canadian based. So the information I get, the websites I get, are mostly based in Canada.
So, researching the internet.
In Canada.
The minimum abnormal height, in Canada, dictated according to the Canadian government is 5'4 for males.
The minimum abnormal height, in Canada, dictated according to the Canadian government is 4'11 for females.
I don't know what the average height of an adult male in Canada is.
---
You say the average height of an adult male in America is 5'9 . So, I don't know what the minimum abrnomal height is considered, according to the American government for males and females. But I'm betting they're alot higher than the minimum abnormal heights in Canada.
---
As for Mexico. If you're 5'9 and you're considered a "friggen GIANT" in Mexico. Makes me wonder what the minimum abnormal height is considered to be according to the Mexican Government and what the average height for an adult male is in Mexico.
---
I'm not done yet. There's more...
----
A few years ago. The minimum established abnormal height standards according to the Canadian Government was under 5'2".
Now the minimum established abnormal height standards according to the Canadian Government is 5'4.
Notice a pattern?
Every few years. The standards for minimum abnormal height goes up.
Why is that?
Well. According to asmoothguyfrom80:
The average height of a man in the US is 5'9".
The U.S. have been putting growth hormones in their cattlle and chickens far earlier than Canada... which is why the average American is so much larger than an average Canadian.
Growth hormones are present in our foods (used to make them grow faster and bigger), in smaller quantities.. chickens, beef, milk for example.
Therefore, the average American is so much larger than the average Canadian. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 6:11:23 PM | Crazy ass thread, but hey, it's Friday night, so I'll bite.
I'd dump his lying, insecure, artificially enhanced azz. Not because he used to be short - because really, I've dated men at both ends of the spectrum, and I prefer a man closer to my height - but because he's clearly not comfortable in his own skin, and frankly, I don't have time for the kind of ego stroking I can imagine he'd require. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 6:23:35 PM | | yes some women probably would,because he would have to be a multi-millionaire to have this procedure done at an adult age,and at 10 inches never heard of more than 3 or4 at most. And he would have to promise not to keep anything else back,like oh by the way my penis is from an ape.. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 6:27:36 PM | Fun guy with a brain makes a very good point - it's not about shallowness per se, it's about having a rough time because of the selection process.
I don't think a gal is shallow if she picks the taller more handsome guy to respond to - out of a bunch of guys she doesn't already know, and who say equally stimulating things (unless there some reason to think taller guys in general tend to be jerks). | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 8:15:24 PM | Hypothetically, I highly doubt I would even get to the year stage with someone who had done this.
Usually, when someone changes something about themselves because they believe it will make them better and more attractive, they also often develop an attitude that they are now better then others. When a person believes they are better then others, they tend to put those others down. I won't tolerate this type of attitude, no matter how good looking the person is. And this type of attitude would definitely be revealed within the first month of getting to know a person. | |

Posted: 10/20/2006 9:44:01 PM | Hypothetically, you could get some retractable/collapsible type leg extensions. Then if she's not okay with it, you can just shorten yourself back up.
And since you're already on the chopping block... consider doing one or both arms too. You'd never have to get up to reach the remote control!
Another option... if you get a 10 inch tongue extension, she may forgive the leg issue. | |
