I think he's legit. People see these 5'10+ people on the forum and call us crazy because we're average or even above. What I think can be easy to forget is that the average height is very mathematical. For example 185+184+173+192+169=903. 903/5=180,6

Of those five; 3 people are taller than average so you can see how an average person might still feel short because most people are still taller than him. I think it's like that where I live: the average is 181 for young people but most young guys I see are are around 184 +- a couple of CM.

So what? What is the problem when some guys are taller then you?

Some people will always be taller, the issue that makes cosmetic ll exist in the first place is when most people are taller and when many people are a lot taller.

They don't have the intellect and mental sharpness to compensate for their stature. I feel many times superior to people 5-8 inches taller than me just because I am smarter and know how to talk better than them. Still I am not smart, or a brilliant speaker, but in comparison to some of them I do pretty good.

Then why lenghten at all if you feel you can compensate for your height in other ways?

Probably because at below average height you will be restricted from many things, which you cannot compensate for. Unless you are really rich or famous etc. Once you reach average you lose that handicap, you dont get as much free benefits are very tall guys do, but you can reach a similar position to them if you manage to improve or are simply better than them in other areas.

Its one of my last goals. And its the discrimination I get from my tall relatives, maybe i will never do LL but if i do it would be probably 5cm on Tibias, i just want to hit average...you have a good height. And if somebody tells you, you are short, you can say i am just average man come on, but i can't say that If you have the time and the money for LL go for it. Otherwise there is no need to push it.
