Inside the World of Leg Lengthening (to get women)

[BadBoy89]

There’s no single reason anyone opts for leg-lengthening surgery, but often at least one of those reasons has to do with impressing girls. Take Alan, 23, a sweet, lanky software engineer from Chicago. (Some of these names have been changed.) Originally just under five feet six, Alan never really thought of himself as short until a girl he had “a super big crush on, like, roasted me for it” in college. This instilled in him a deep insecurity that ultimately prompted him to get his femurs done in February. Now, after spending the last three months alone in his apartment eating delivery food, he’s five nine.

That’s a lot of cash to spend as well as the lengthy recovery time!
It be better of getting completely jacked.

You can just by lifts for an extra few inches

We've got three threads for this, going to combine them into one

Instead of getting leg extensions you guys need to think outside of the box and get a neck extension. Much cheaper.

Stupid, but if I was a shorter man I might think different. Height is something that is really important to chicks, and if you haven't been gifted the genetic lottery that puts you average or above in height then I'm not judging anyone.

 

[TheManMasenko]

As a 5’6 man who also lives in the Chicago area. I can understand the man’s point of view. I did consider getting this surgery done myself.

But I opted out, I believe doing something that major would just showcase how weak and insecure I really am about myself. Instead, I accepted to just be a short, (soon to be) rich, minority with confidence.

As for my credentials, I’ve been able to attract very beautiful women and even dated women taller than me.

I can say sometimes, I do get insecure about myself especially with height. But, I have to get the monkey off my back (hopefully for good one day) and be the best person I can be.

Getting from 5'6" to 5'9" or even 5'10" isn't a major accomplishment. 5'10" is essentially "King of the Manlets" status. At the end of the day, women don't much of 5'10" men. You're not going to get swooned over for being 5'10". You might get considered a little bit more based on being average at 5'10", but there's no special treatment. 5'9" is considered borderline short by White women 40 and under.

 

[Jake_Gyllenhaal69]

I just don't get it. Most women don't even know what 6ft even looks like. I see 5'9 men claiming 6ft all of the time lol.

 

[SW15]

I see 5'9 men claiming 6ft all of the time lol.

Men who are 5'9" and 5'10" realize that 5'9" and 5'10" heights are perceived as shiit by a lot of women. That's why they claim 6'0".

The average height for a Woman I think is 5' 4".

If you're taller than that you shouldn't feel bad about it but I understand, you feel short if you're around guys who are 6' Plus.

Not going to lie though, I know Women who are around 5' 2" and want a 6' 5" dude. That makes no sense and in fact I think it has more to do with an internal kink with some Woman than any logical reasoning behind it.

It's like in porn, where you see a girl who looks like she's 4' and the guy looks like he's 7' tall. It's a kink of a small Woman that does it for some Men. I'm willing to bet it's just the opposite for some Women.

I personally know of one girl who's very attractive and she's tiny. 4'11" - 5', but she claimed she wanted a 6' guy. However she's now seriously dating a guy who's 5' 7", so it's not set in stone. Many Women just regurgitate what they've heard from their friends or other Women.

Yeah women may SAY that they want a guy who is "x" tall, the same way guys will say they want a woman with a DD rack.

Usually that goes out the window if you meet someone you vibe with and end up really liking and wanting to spend time with.

Basically it's only important until it isn't.

If my height was the reason I couldn’t get a woman. I’d get. LL.

Exactly, Women say all kinds of things... It usually goes out the window either by force (Meaning they have not choice) or they meet someone they really like that is nothing like what she claimed she wanted.

Also, I still think it's a kink.

"Big and tall dominant strong man holding little me!"

In fact, this actually reminds of a very cute blonde I was co workers with. We would talk about sex, cvm and fvcking all the time lol, she was very small but she loved the idea of "climbing her man". It was her thing.

I myself wont deny that I have a sexual thing for very small petite girls. They're just really cute and feminine looking however my girlfriend is 5' 8" but 5' 10" in heels.

P.S. Some of the smallest cute petite girls tend to be some of the bitchiest Women I've ever met.

Way to fail a "**** test"

 

[LucianoM]

As soon as i wake up every morning I literally thank god for making me six foot.

 

[HaleyBaron]

I met many guys that tower over me. Ran into a 6' 9 guy the other day who was taller than everyone in the bar. He must have been an athlete with how burly he was. But he's just one guy. What is he going to do to me with him being taller?

 

[BillyPilgrim]

Having artificially long, skinny legs combined with a squat torso isn't really a good look.

 

[MatureDJ]

Look how feminine this guy's legs look now.
