My 6ft4 friend says that height doesn't matter and that he's still KHHV because of his meat size

While I tell him that height is everything and that's why I'm still KHHV despite other decent measurements

What do yall think?

Being 5'9 in Germany is absolutely brutal. Doesn't help that im ugly and have narrow clavicles too. My subhuman genetics have ruined my chances in ever experiencing love. Forgot to mention that my head is also huge and I don't have money either. Im done for.

I’m 182cm (about 6ft) and being this height in the UK is so funny.

In one room you’re the tallest person there, and in the next room you’re bang average.

What has been your experience being this height in the UK and Europe?

One of our department leads and manager at work left the company 2 months ago and they’ve been looking for a replacement and found a guy, and yesterday was his first day. Sweet older Mexican-American dude, in his 40s, around 5’5. The dude used to be a former lower tier NASCAR racer. He came in for his first day yesterday, and set up his office, and had photos of his racing days on his desk and some posters hung up. He made gluten free and nut free muffins for all of us, and came around and handed out his muffins to everyone and introduced himself, and talked about he used to race.

Me and him hit it off, I love cars and racing too, and I think it’s gonna be nice having him as one of the managers, he genuinely seems chill.

Anyway, he went to his office, and we all went about our day. I go to the break room for lunch and I hear two of coworkers talking. One lady was talking to another lady, they’re both normal people usually and have never given me any flack so I was surprised to hear this from them. They’re both around my age(24). Convo went like this.

Lady 1: “did you see [insert name], our new manager”

Lady 2: “yeah he baked muffins for everyone too, like what”

Lady 1: “stoooooop ikr”

Lady 2: “yeah he used to be a race car dude”

Lady 1: “talking about him being a racer and baking muffins for everyone even though he’s our manager lol… how insecure is he about his height do you think”

Lady 2: “no like fr stooooop, I was just thinking he probably had to race and do other shit to pull anyone back in the day, it’s all compensating”

Lady 1: “I can wear my kitten heels and still tower over him, he better not ask me to work overtime, I can’t do orders from men who gotta look up at me”

Lady 2: “stop that, you’re so mean”

I don’t remember exactly how it happened or who said what, but yeah convo was something like this.

Poor mfer can’t even exist. It genuinely ruined my day and I took a work from home day today I don’t wanna go in and have to work next to those people.

Hello, I will go to Illinois soon. My friend living in Chicago and he said that everyone there is at least 6 feet tall. Is that true?

Hi everyone. I'm 20 (born 2006) and 166 cm tall. I have a decent beard, though it isn't fully filled in. My dad is 168 cm and my mom is 162 cm. By the mid-parental formula I'd expect to be around 171 cm, so I feel like I'm on the lower side of my range.

Is there any realistic chance I could still grow, or have my growth plates most likely closed by now? I'm planning to get a bone-age X-ray to check. Has anyone here done that, and what was the result?

I'm also working on my posture and lifting to build my frame. Any advice that actually works is welcome. I'm not interested in pills or scams.

Thanks!

It seems like each generation is getting taller. The average height in canada use to be 5’9 and now it’s 5’10. Among gen z, the average height is around 5’10.3.

It seems like the average height in Canada might be 5’11 soon. Seems like it’s on that trajectory.

As a 25m Canadian 5’9 man, this kinda sucks. Especially since i’ve always been insecure about my height because everyone else in my family is above 6’1 (my brother is 6’1, dad is 6’2, mom is 5’4 and all my younger cousins are well above 6’3). I’ve always coped by telling myself that i’m average height but not anymore.

I’m bald too which sucks. I can’t cure my baldness because it’s alopecia areata and you can’t get a hair transplant and minoxidil doesn’t work for autoimmune hairfall.

I feel like I could’ve grown to 5’10 or 5’11 if I had better habits (nutrition, sleep, etc) growing up. I had a tendency to sleep late on school nights and never ate a lot but never starved myself and I grew up in a financially stable middle class family.

My mom’s brother is 5’10.5 and his parents are 5’6 (grandfather) and 5’3 (grandmother). I’m the shortest younger generation individual in my family.

I’m also south asian, so my grandparents grew in India with different living conditions. I grew up in Canada, so technically I should be taller.

Am I cooked dating wise and is it likely I stunted my growth?
