Still think 6’1 or 6’2 is ideal. Any taller is borderline goofy.

5'11, perfect compromise between athleticism and aesthetics srs.

It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."

Thats manlet territory though. I´m 6`1 and it´s not really tall. I feel like I´m normal height, and it´s not because of where i live

brb mogging dudes but guys that height the most of them are athletically challenged, can't shoot a basketball for chit, can easily be taken down by someone who knows how to fight and can't do chit, walk with slumped posture. Bitches only get wet for your height, anything else you bring to the table, raisins have more moisture than them.

6'0-6'2 is versatile height. The proportions from lifting are on point, you're at the height where you can play any sport damn near, if your body and game is on point you can easily take a bitch from a man that's 6'3-6'5, get respect at the work place for a good height, but not to the point you're on that "beanpole" chit.

Oh by the wy...Size f*ckng matters, in everything. Don't believe the hype. Size f*ckin maters. Size DOESN'T matter to peope who dont have any size, that's why they'r like "oh size doesn't mater". SIZE, GIRTH, THICKNESS, EVERYTHING. Its a game of inches in life..add up all those inche, Victory muthaf*cker!-Gre Pitt

Can confirm, NFL lineman bod checking in. Fuarken hard to look like I lift & not be fat at the same time. As soon as I go on dat dere diet, the size disappears(wide clavicles and narrow waist stay doe ayyyy)

you can easily claim 6'4 to these sloots if you're 6'-6'2 and they won't even notice it unless they're 5'10+

If I could pick any height I'd pick 6'1 or 6'2 barefoot but only as long as I could keep the mesomorph frame. I rarely ever see tall guys that can outlift me. Never for beanpoles. I have seen a few giant gorillas in my time though.

With that said, almost everybody is padding in real life and probably on this forum. It is what it is. I think a lot of people are too insecure about this. There's always been fights and whatnot on this forum over height but it's gotten a lot worse in the past few years. I think tinder and social media and all that has turned dudes against each other, especially since so many aren't getting laid.

OP must be a manlet


As someone who is 6’3 the answer is 6’1- 6’2. Believe it or not that extra inch makes a huge difference in terms of gains, getting big, and clothes fit. If you’re 6’3+ and slim there are no clothes for you. Mediums might fit well but are too small , large and you disappear. With girls 6’1 is perfect range, at 6’3+ you can even be too tall for some. Enjoy bending over to kiss or talk to anyone.

Enjoy sleeves and jeans not fitting. Sports? Helps in basketball and volleyball but anything else it’s marginal at best


That said no complaining here. 6’3+ is miles ahead of being short

No homo , but imo Chris Evans has about the best genetics you can have . Although tall guys seem to pull the sloots better , being 6’5 is a pita when it comes to comfort in vehicles ,and in many other cases .
I’d be happy to be 6’0

I'm a bit over 6'. Def don't feel short, but not super tall either. I think a legit 6'2-6'3 barefoot range would be perfect, but above that, ehhhh.

Edit- other comments remind me, I don't understand people wanting a massive height difference. I don't get the appeal of a 6'+ dude dating a 5' girl. I don't really get the appeal for the girl either.

I have a preference for tall girls (5'8+), so I know I'm in the minority, but I just don't get it. I think being within a few inches of each other is more aesthetic as a couple and more functional for sex, lol. Ideally a girl would be 5'10 for me.

Hey guys. Always remember the perfect height for a male is to be in the top 1% height range for males.



Let me guess, what's next, the perfect income range is to be in the top 1% income range for males too?

5'11 seems to be the average male height here where I live so that's probably why I rarely feel "stand out" tall, and I'm 6'2 barefoot

occasionally in nightclubs some random 6'5 motherfukers will show up and mog the sh!t out of me

6'3" is ideal. Any shorter and in 5 years you'll be considered a manlet.

I'm 6'1.5 and nothing fits me right. It's moreso proportions. I have the legs of someone 6'4 and the upper body of someone 5'10. I have broad shoulders and an athletic build. I have to wear XL or XXL button ups just to fit my shoulders, but then having a short torso for my height it looks like a table cloth from my stomach down.

6'3 is completely fine. I think once you get past 6'4 it is an issue. My dad is 6'7 and he has a lot of issues with his height, but also a lot of upsides.

Same. I don't feel that tall tbh, but everyone thinks I'm tall. People constantly guess I'm 6'3 (fkn lol). But put me next to a barefoot 6'3 guy and you'll see I'm clearly shorter. My area has a lot of fukking giants though. No lie one time a while ago I go to the gas station after work and as I'm standing in line a guy that is probably 7'2 walks in. I know legit 6'10+ guys from college and this dude was an absolute monster. I see big tradie guys by me daily that are like 6'4 350lbs.

Thankfully I have a bigger frame and workout so I look pretty big.

Anything less than that is short
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."
