don't do it now. this could be like the hair transplant evolution. at first it's very crazy and dodgy.

then it progressively gets better and now you can have hair from the back of your head implanted at the front with 0 scars.



i can't see why it wouldn't work. Look at Anderson Silva, he had his leg snapped in half and he has titanium on his shin, still an elite level athlete.

I don't get it - your torso, arms, and musculature will remain the same size. All that surgery will accomplish is giving you weird proportions and low muscle mass for your height.

One software engineer told GQ he spent the first three months after his surgery alone in his apartment and ordered delivery food during that time to go from 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-9.
So he spent 75k to go from a manlet to a fat manlet

not necessarily. a lot of manlets have short legs like Joe Rogan.


He has a normal 6 footer's torso. but just short legs.


if Rogan adds 3-4 inches on his legs, he would be MORE proportional

still big torso. his upperbody is too big for his legs.

look at his proportions next to this taller man.




the guy next to him can't get leg surgery as his torso and headsize would be thrown off proportion. Rogan can easily gain a few inches in his legs and look completely proportional.

They used to care about the money a STEMcel made too. But that dog doesn't hunt any more.

When women were required to meet men face to face, at least it gave shorter men a chance to persuade them with their looks or personality somewhat. Now they’re entirely filtered to not even show up at all.

they still do. But they only cared if you were already tall and good looking enough. Otherwise you only get attention from gold-diggers.

That's the biggest cope tbh. You can't persuade sexual attraction, JFL. And I say that as a semi-professional jester. Gamecels on suicide watch. It's all 95% physical. Women can now afford to select entirely on attraction alone and not worry about making the smart choice (where they settle for someone who they are not attracted to but is a good paycheck);

This is a misconception. STEMcels have always been -cels. Newton and Tesla both died virgins. You know any famous finance pioneers who died with a dry dink? I don't either

about 2-3" per bone (i.e. tibia and femur).. but the "safest" (i.e. least amount of crippling complications) is about half that amount. If you go full amount you pretty much have to cut your IT band, release achilles heel to prevent duckass, and myriad of other problems resulting from stretching soft tissue beyond what it grew to support. That's not even accounting for stuff like embolism, bone non-consolidation, etc. LL is basically a "phuck my life up forever fam" procedure. I would only suggest it if you already bought the rope and gonna do it, as an alternative.

sexual attraction was always physical i think. and it's 95% based on face

nah, you can literally see sexual attraction fizzle out of women when they realize how short their heartthrob celebs are. Height is 50%, face (which includes hair) is 50%.

Max is 7”

3” for tibias and 4” for femurs

But it’s a bad idea because body proportions will depend on your wingspan, unless you have long wingspan you’ll have very long legs in proportion to your body

i guess these nerds aren't that smart after all.

outside ssh scripts, they're idiots. Just buy platform shoes, stop being vegan and go lift. You'll get 100x more success than months of pure torture and pain simply so u can get laid.
Weight Loss: Go carnivore or keto/low carb. Create calorie deficit. Buy packaged healthy meals if needed. Meat is good and heals, stop being lied to.
