Get some Cuban Heels.
Tell him you'll gnaw on his ankles if you get any more backchat.
Could just say well I put those extra inches to good use elsewhere.. If ya know what I mean :wink: because size matters yanno :smile:
Wish I had the money for leg lengthening surgery. No joke, might amputate my legs when bionic technology becomes superior than a human limb.

I was called a manlet by my peers at uni despite being an inch or two below the average height. I feel insecure and frustrated that I can't do anything about it.


Tell them that missionary will give you less back aches

Nah, it's within the average range which is probably from 5 foot 8 to about 6 foot. I can see why being tall is desirable (I'm 1.93m :colondollar:) but there are also a lot of problems with it! You could always opt for surgery which can increase height by something like 3 inches (??) but that's incredibly expensive and frowned upon

I've got a mate who's about 5 foot 6 and he seems to be very popular with the girls....why? Because he's confident and funny! Personality matters so much more than height because at the end of the day, 1 times 0 is still 0 if you're a tall dude who cannot socialise for jack sh*t

Just be proud of who you are :smile:

I fear they may respond with the hitches of a woman being on top - which I found to be awkward as I couldn't see her eyes as my torso is short

Mate I'm really sorry, but how you phrased that just made me laugh out loud :laugh:
These days it is yes. A look at any uni campus is going to tell you that the average height is about 1.83 / 6'0

It was just the

'I found to be awkward as I couldn't see her eyes as my torso is short'

I know it's not funny like and you are hung up on it, but it reads like a self-deprecating joke and I just laughed haha. Sorry!

When my flaws are perpetually pointed out it is very hard to ignore
Stephen Bear is 5'9. Gary Beadle is 5'9. Ricci Guarnaccio is like 5'7.

Never forget.

Hmm.

Interesting.

Nutrition proportional to height and intelligience, hence uni skewing sample?

Also, mine is based on a very Asian uni 😂
