I am curious to determine what is the perfect height and see how it compares to their current height and goals.

As the title suggests, what is the ideal male height in your opinion?

[Exxon]

5'10-6'2 range is pretty good.

[IgnoredByMods]

5'10-6'2 range is pretty good.

Out of curiosity, why did you exclude 6'3+?

[HateLAPELoveSTEM]

Out of curiosity, why did you exclude 6'3+?

I think it is converted into 190cm in Metric System? If you don't play basketball or partake in heigh-demanding sports/occupations, you don't grow that tall. 188cm is a golden height in both dating and occupations, let alone achieving societal respects if with good personalities and geniuses.

[thaw1010]

6'1. You're taller than most men, pretty much every woman, and can build muscle fairly easily without having to weigh an insane amount. You also beat the "6' cutoff" that a lot of people believe in.

[yash]

As much/less as you are comfortable with..

[AsianCyborg]

Well there’s no such thing as a “perfect” height because it could come in all shapes and sizes but in my opinion I’ll say 6’1 or 185cm. I think most can’t really tell the difference between 185cm and 188cm.

[ReadRothbard]

I'd say 6'0-6'4 is the generally good-to-go range.

6'3 could also be an ideal height because you don't look that much different compared to other people and the people who play basketball.

[ilovescience]

I'd say 6'0-6'4 is the generally good-to-go range.

This range is not much far away from many men and not short for people who really want to be an athlete in basketball.

[battroll]

185-193cm.

Thats the best height in the Western world.

[hiddensir]

5cm above the average of the country that do you live in

[zaozari]

Out of curiosity, why did you exclude 6'3+?

Maybe because he also excluded 6"4 which would make him around approximately the 1% tallest in the US and there's something more in life than flesh & bone?
Maybe because ideal height for women is not 6"3? Maybe because he would feel less confortable driving, showering, and generally bad with daily average ergonomics that is often calculated to fit within max. 85% of population height?
Maybe because he just doesn't need to compensate so much for his self esteem and self confidence?

[zaozari]

As much/less as you are comfortable with..

That's it. If you are totally psychologically healthy, fulfilled in life and otherwise happy.

[zaozari]

Such an empty, beaten, useless topic because so personal and depending on so much things.
"Perfect height" is the theme of several recent topics and put in the search field delivers "only" 106 results...."ideal height", 130 entries. So many wasted posts about the question. I wonder if quantitative concrete answers (like 195 cm) would influence the target height "pick up" choice of any unfortunately more insecure disoriented guy....

[HateLAPELoveSTEM]

That's it. If you are totally psychologically healthy, fuLL Forumilled and otherwise happy.

It's nearly impossible to be psychologically healthy when standing at only 170cm and below in E.Asia and 175cm and below in Caucasian countries except Spain and Portuguese. At least I've yet to see any short man who totally sheds height dysphoria when he is obviously short among his peers. That's why I said being homeless is also better than being short at least I have never seen any orphan who is as mentally screwd up as short men on average.

[zaozari]

You won't see them until you're cured of dysphoria and/or be in a foreign  country  out of China.
Contrarily to your assumptions I have never seen or talked to any of my dozens or hundreds of male  acquaintances around 170 cm who were unhappy, unsuccessful  discriminated or even knowing CLL exists. It depends also on local cultures, women's minds, etc. The average male in my country is around 174/175cm. Only very few people, like you, would have height neurosis if being 170 cm tall. In your case you'd have height neurosis if shorter than 185-190cm, it seems to be what you say.
Besides consistent, continuous psychological and psychiatric help, you need to adapt and do realistic CLL, become normal in your social and communication life, and build a life project beyond height issues only. Maybe you should also leave China, altough your views seem more distorted than Chinese society's itself, even among young people and in metropolis like Shangai.

You haven't still understood you should find the right strategies to fight the battle of your life, before becoming totally physically and psychologically screwed.

Of course cuz your country' average height is 174-175cm so those males you were talking to are not feeling inferior about their heights. But I am wondering which Caucasian country you are living in? As I learned, except Spain and Portugueses, all of the Caucasian countrys' average heights range from 177-184cm and if you are under 175cm in those countries you will be likely to feel inferior if under 170cm then the outcome will be pretty self-expressing.
Yeah I retrospected what I said that was trully kinda stretching the reality but in China due to the inflations of height, men under 185cm are considered as short under 180cm are considered as disabled so I can see many men around 175-178 are complaining about being short while the nationwide average height is only 172-173cm.

Where do you ger the idea that Spanish are that short? I al Spanish. Lived in Germany and currently in the Netherlands. Also in the UK. Average height in Spain in very similar to average height on the UK and most European countries.

[zaozari]

Sorcerer:
There was a guy that I don't know if it's racist or you just made him loss his temper when he refered to Chinese as basically inferior a couple of days ago. It's a pitty that you, the supposed "victim", are even more racist and worse, against your own people, one of the most ancient and cultural rich in the world.

WTF is a "caucasian country" these days? What was a caucasian person yesterday? You're not normal, if you consider paramount important the diference of a few 2 or 5 cm between countries. It's of the utmost stupidity to make such a simplistic discrimination.  Because it's intelectual dwarfism, because girls are also shorter, because migrations in times of globalization are permanent, because there are "Nike Air"s, because, because....After LL, are you making plastic surgery to your nose? Eye lashes? Pigmentation treatments? Feet extension? Get steroids to gain "caucasian" muscle?

It's so ironic. While you are the most dysphoric, abnormal person here, and cry around due to the cruelty against you and your height, you are also the one with most prejudices, the most intrinsequely racist and discriminatory heightist in the entire forum constantly being offensive to many people here. And you don't want to learn. Again, you're more and more a mobile Internet metastasis.

It doesn't really matter much but these maps vary a lot because generations are changing fast and calculations depended a lot on the average age of the "cohort" of people being measured (generally by local authorities in single regions and short samples or by universities' populations).
According to recent data from the WHO and the CDC for example, Spain, France and Portugal were approximately at the same height (174-176cm).
But really, who would emmigrate for a diferent country or even care because of a few centimetres? Maybe in cases that such a thing is so dramatic we don't find good lucid, realistic minds to embark in LL.

I was not using racism words and they were just standing for countries where the dominant ethnics are Caucasians. What's wrong?
It's kinda dysplexia for you to have misunderstood I had him to lose his temper and every reader can summarize that that 173 guy is an extreme racist who is holding great hatreds of Asians cuz his parents got infected by COVID-19 and blaming it for China's having originated COVID-19 from China to the whole world. If you think what he was doing was ethical then you are totally the most chauvinistic racist I've ever seen here, on par with that pathetic mind-polluted guy.
Besides, why are u always being susceptible to what I am saying like following after every extreme statement I posted and adding rude words afterwards? And now I just used a word standing for a country dominated with Caucasians and you misunderstood me as a racist. If I am a racist gravitated to Caucasians do you think I would be still arguing against that 173 Arabian in that post? You logic is totally unintelligible and absurd. At least you don't have a strong logic on par with the one of the guy in my avatar.

Sorry, but I am always thinking Portuguese and Spain are equivalently tall and I learned that Portuguese is 172.5cm tall in 2008 and I don't thnk any European country can gain at least 5.5cm on average height in just 14 yrs. That is even impossible for fast developing countries like Vietnam and China.

Who also would tell you emmigation is meaningless while your height can even get beyond average when you infiltrate into Pygmies(an Afrian ethnic whose average height is only 146-148

I tried to explain relativelity of measurements. You don't evolve  learn, or debate. You just stick to your biased sources without comparing or evaluating its quality. Around 4 years ago, according to WHO, males Portuguese average (transversal age sample) was 173,9 cm, Spain 173,1 cm and France 174,1 cm. I rounded subjectively all 3 to 174 cm because for me it's not relevant in this discussion.
You don't even know what you're talking about. Many countries "lenghtened" allmost 15 cm in two generations.

Here is my conversion table of height in China and I worked it out after the 4-month sanity check irl. Enjoy it:
In China:
170-171cm = Having Acromegaly
168-170cm = Having a brain injury which persistently creates hallucinations and physical pains
165-168cm = Having Parkinson in dementia phase
160-165cm = Having Leukemia in incurable phase
160-cm = Having Ebola/Osteocarcinoma

So I am equivalently having Leukemia in incurable phase in my country and Option 5 to me is a chemical therapy that will def succeed in curing my disease in future so at this point having Leukemia is worse than being short but when it comes to priorizations and privileges irl, you know the answer. So at last they 'equal' to each other.

This is the most hilarious, tragic, stupid, crazy, monstrous, "conversion table" I've ever seen.
And you're sadistic. Therefore you won't ever be happy. And it's even more tragic because it's you choice. I'm about to use the other guy's language. You're a demented pussy suffocated in a chao min rice bowl incapable of a manly, dignity gesture. You don't respect others, you don't respect your parents if you really obliged them to sell a millionaire house, you don't even protect your dignity or respect yourself here in this forum. You're pure garbage. That is your life project. No LL can possibly save an handicaped "*un of a *itch" like you. After all advise, requests, recommendations, friendly hands up here, I have to say you really deserve exchange condition with somebody suffering from acromegaly, leukemia, ebola ,(death in one week), carcinoma, Parkinson dementia and uncontrolled defecation, etc.
You're just a total powerless blind soul trying to *uck other people's minds. It's the year of the Tiger in China, isn't it? Well, you are just a miau of a female miniscule cat.

Useless topic, people will have different answer depending on many things. Everyone wanna be tall but how much is enough

15cm in two generations? You know u are not talking about average height right? Or am I missing out something like those countries u mentioned above were only 158cm or so on average 20 yrs ago?
