my boomer work friend was bitching about his teenager taking 40 minute showers like what is he doing in there. i vividly remember my old man bitching the same. and yeah those days i was worrying about every little pimple and all that crap. as someone over 30 its been a long time since i cared about that and a long time since i had face acne. But yeah i forgot how much young people care or worry about their looks when in reality they are in peak glow. I cant imagine what goes through the heads of young guys these days, I havent even really thought about what kind of messages MSM and apps are sending them and a lot of the old advice about chasing girls these guys are now being told conflicting messages about dont be masculine, dont do this or that with women but then the girls are still going to be attracted to certain things no matter what society tells them. young men have to be a mess and nobody is really looking out for them.

I just miss the cutoff (5'9), and have never given a shyt. If some genie came and could magically make me any height, then yeah I'd choose to be taller I suppose, but my manletism isn't something that has ever bothered me.

I heard a group of kids playing the " would you rather " game and one of the topics was, Would you rather be under 5'10" or dead. It was very eye opening for me and it got me to thinking.

Is there a point of life under 5 10?

Can you ever command any sort of respect as a man under that threshold.Hell would you even want to?

The kids (basketball players teenagers) legit were saying they'd rather be dead (ded fkn srs)

What height would you choose if the genie asked you?

Fukn brutal. I’m 5’10

Almost rather be shorter so that I’m not teetering on the “almost” edge. If I were single and stacking cash rather than family man while stacking cash I’d do the leg breaking height surgery.

Insane how much it matters and how much importance people put on it

the biggest slayer i ever knew was 5'8"
Couldnt believe how easy it was for him to pick up girls. He wasnt even a chad in facial department he was maybe a 7/10 but he just has the right game and personality

I really doubt this is reality especially when the average height in America is 5' 9"

now, maybe if you start saying 5'4" and below we could have a real discussion but even then there is more to life than comparing your height to others. your eyes still enjoy the same sights, your ears still enjoy the same music, ext. height shouldnt be a factor in your happiness

The insecurity about height is more of a misc thing but mainly because this website attracts the most insecure men. There is research that suggests men who are into bodybuilding have the most insecurity and try to maximize their masculinity by building muscles.
Aka this is the biggest collection of cope on the web, so what you see on this website isnt close to reality
