Most guys exaggerate their height IRL (srs)

The amount of ****g0ts that claim to be over 6ft when in actual reality they're 5'10 at best lol, have had a convo with a few guys who claimed they were over 2-3 sometimes even 4 inches above what they actually are and I called them out and stood up to them to assure them they're not.

I'm 5'8 without shoes, and these guys were 1-2 inches taller at most. Sometimes even same height as me.

I could easily fraud my height and claim to be 5'10 but I go by actual measurements barefoot because I'm not insecure about being a manlet.

Do these people exaggerate on purpose or are actually unaware how to measure themselves properly?

It’s true. I’m 6’1 barefoot and tons of ~5’10 brahs claim 6’. When I say my height around them they are like “nah bro you’re 6’3-6’4”. I just laugh.

Yeah one guy at work claimed he was 6ft when he was like half an inch taller than me, I called him out saying he's 5'9 at best and he got super pissed off lmao.

Because of these idiots frauding I can't even tell girls I'm 5'8 on tinder or else they'll think I'm a legit dwarf.

5'11.5" when I wake up....what I would give for a half inch. Either way I claim 5'11" because rounding up shows a sign of insecurity.

Exactly 6 ft tall crew checking in. Plus or minus 1/8th of an inch depending on where measured. A dude that works at a store down the street from my house has to be pushing 7 ft. I feel kind of bad for him though. If you don't have an athletic build you look awkward above 6'6".
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

No not at all. I actually didn't even think being tall was an advantage until this forum, since I never noticed any advantages IRL and noticed a ton of shorter guys pull pretty hot girls all my life.

But now I take pride in my height and am super happy about being the perfect male height.

They can claim whatever they want, but they cant fool women's instincts. If girl likes their proportions, thats it regardless of the stats the guy has on the misc lol

All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

Same tbh, before miscing if I saw a manmore IRL I just thought 'okay he's tall' never crossed my mind that they have an advantage with girls.

It definitely plays a role but is overexaggrated on the misc unless you're 5'4 and below. face/status/ money and charisma is more important.

In all seriousness it's hilarious how horrible people are at judging heights. I've been told by men and women (mostly women) that I have to be in the 6 foot two range.

Manlets who are barely 5'6-7 oftenly claim 5'9/5'10 an I lol every time.

Real life 5'11 is quite a respectable height/ tallish height. Manlets exxaggerating their height makes heights such as 5'10/5'11 seem shorter than they are.

Yup, most dudes inflate their height by ~2 inches IME. 1 inch for their "height in shoes" and 1 inch for the sake of keeping up with lie-flation. I'm only 5'7 or so, but people swear that I'm 5'8 or 5'9. I should honestly just claim that on the apps because 5'7 is a dealbreaker while 5'9 is "acceptable".

Note: this is based on what women "stated". In reality, 5'10 is probably the 98% pool etc.

This is why you ****ggots need to adapt the metric system.

Sloots would be even more confused with the numbers and 180cm - 185cm sounds less impressive lol

[img]https://i.imgur.com/wDtUTSI.png[img][/QUOTE]Ya, this chart -2 inches sound about right IMO. At 5'7, I'm definitely short enough for my height to be a turnoff for a non-insignificant portion of women. That said, I'm still taller than most women in heels, so I do think around 55-60% or so of the pool is reasonable. It's certainly not true that I only have 33%, given that the average height is max 5'4. Most women IRL mostly just care that they don't dominate you in heels IME. Then again, maybe the fact that I'm really fit and look young/dress well ups my pool. Like I said, people think I'm taller than I am, so I must be doing something right.

Not only did you used to claim 6'1, you frequently make threads such as "why is everyone 6'5 250lbs".. at least be consistent lol
