No for real,social media kill my height

My mom is 5'5, my dad is 5'8, my maternal grandfather was 5'11, my paternal grandfather and uncle are 5'8. I ended up 5'2 and a guy. How tall could I have been?

My mom is 5'5 and my dad is 5'8, my maternal grandfather was 5'11, and so were his brother and dad, and my paternal uncle and grandfather are 5'8. According to the mid-parental target height, I should be 5'9, but I ended up 5'2, and my sister is 5'1.

How did I end up shorter than almost everyone in my family?

My mom must've missed the hypergamy memo bc I seriously have no fucking clue why I even exist given everything I know about their love life that ended when I was like a 4 yr old.

So on top of the top tier genetics I was served and rly I mean just amazing I also grew up with no father figure AND was malnourished cause of my moms ED👍👍👍👍👍👍

i really wonder why I never experienced teen love and was a shut in🤔🤔🤔🤔

We’ve had a bit of laxed moderation for a while and ive been lurking just to see how it would pan out, but it seems some of the users are under the impression this is a space for behavior clearly stated to be in violation of the rules.

“Stop being a little b****” or “stop whining loser” or similar comments will get you banned. Probably warned without previous offenses but it will depend on the severity of the violation.

“Height doesn’t matter at all” “Personality is all that matters” (in relation to society or dating etc.) and such absolutist statements that are opposite of peer reviewed studies and articles are gaslighting comments. They will be removed and you will be warned/banned.

Coming to the sub as a taller than average person to shit on average/shorter people will be an instant permaban.

This is not a free-fire zone for all opinions and beliefs.

Read the rules.

My mom is 164 and my dad is 173. I hit my growth spurt at the age of 13 (early puberty). I’m 16 now and 174 since last year I grew 4 cm. My mom’s grandparents were 190 and 175 (and she somehow only hit 164). Am I cooked?

its a very odd height. at time i will tower above somepeople and a visible difference vs like 5,7 ,5,8.

Im 182 cm in the morning and finish the day around like 181-180.8 so id a legit 181 guy. Bizzare height you kind feel tall and average at the same time. my brother is 190 so i think that skews stuff and my cousin is 6,8

If you are 5.7 and over and you struggle with dating

The problem is not your height. It's actually your face
