What do you think think of men getting leg lengthening surgery?

NickFromNL · 2022-04-04T10:08:08+00:00

That is just sick man and totally not worth it.

Look at it this way:

I'm from Holland and a lot of women here are 1.75m and taller. BUT a lot of them are also 1.65m or shorter and we are considered the country with the tallest people in the world.

2022-04-04T10:07:55+00:00

This surgery is very risky and expensive. Please keep that in mind. You have to take pain killers for weeks.

Erbium-Oxide · 2022-04-04T10:15:50+00:00

There is no way you will gain five inches of height from this incredibly risky, incredibly dumb surgery.

byteseed · 2022-04-04T10:32:49+00:00

It will give you ZERO advantage with women. Especially in Europe. You are putting too much effort in trying to be attractive. Concentrate on yourself, your social status, good body, skills, knowledge, hobbies and wealth.

Once your concentrate on those thing and keep meeting new women, you will realize that height is not important at all and you can get women you will enjoy independently of how much inches you have in your legs.

Elbynerual · 2022-04-04T10:24:48+00:00

Bro, I'm 5"3 (in the UK) and I'd never comtimplate getting lengthening surgery. And no I"m not a virgin, I"ve had women in my life. Sure being short is a major disadvntage when it comes to women, but what are you going to do, be insecure about it your whole life?

Control the things you can control (fitness, fashion, personality, finances, lifestyle) and let everything else go.

Work on self acceptance, and the world opens up to you. Are you sure this surgery will fix your problems, where does it end? Dick lengthening surgery? Nose job? Plastic abs?

There is a powerful podcast by Mark Sing about this very topic which completely changed my negative mindset on the topic, let me know if you're interested in listening to it.

EDIT: Here's the podcast I was talking about. If you have ANY INSECURITY, give this a listen. His other podcasts are cool too, so totally check him out:

feenchbarmaid0024 · 2022-04-04T10:57:39+00:00

2 words... fuck that! You wana get your feet chopped off on purpose? To get laid? 🤦

Read that aloud to your self, many times, and think about it

Appropriate_Ad3327 · 2022-04-04T11:18:42+00:00

Genuinely sad dude stop being insecure about your height. I am also 5’7 and never even considered a surgery to grow 2 inches

Sliti666 · 2022-04-04T10:45:19+00:00

Rotfl, Mate I am 172 cm tall, I live in Poland - girls here are often rude, but i still manage to get girls (and my social skill isint great either).

Dont waste money, dont risk a surgery, go go therapist and fight with ur insecurites.

IratusHonestus · 2022-04-04T11:47:30+00:00

Honestly, I've heard all kinds of wild shit from people as a budding bodybuilder. I say if you can afford it and there's very little to no downsides, then do what makes you happy. At least this way you won't live with the regret of not trying it. I've met people that have completely destroyed their lives and mind with Tren or other steroids all for 30lbs and bigger shoulders. A leg lengthening surgery sounds very tame. Lol

Difficult_Ad_8299 · 2022-04-04T09:56:28+00:00

But why?

2022-04-04T11:08:59+00:00

just wear those shoes with fish tanks on bottom

Salty5674 · 2022-04-04T11:16:17+00:00

Is this a real thing?

GroundbreakingAd8077 · 2022-04-04T10:46:13+00:00

It's a long term investment, but honestly, you might want to try lifts first

Live-Ad-6309 · 2022-04-04T11:44:24+00:00

Like any other kind of cosmetic surgery. It's a bandaid solution to a problem than can only be cured by changing your mental state.

Once you're tall, the problem will be your nose, or your eyes, or your hair, or whatever else you can imagine. You will never be satisfied until you accept imperfection.

Cosmetic surgeries in my opinion should be reserved for fixing damage from injuries/mutilations, or fixing the visual effects of health conditions. If the issue is just something that you happened to be born as genetically, you should learn to live with it.

mf53454 · 2022-04-04T11:02:38+00:00

You can't gain 5-6 inches with these surgeries without fucking up your body, I've done some research in the past and the least risky is about 2.5-3 inches max, more like 2-2.5 inches. So you will be max 5'10 but definitely not 6'. 5 '10 is not bad, but is it worth it. Do a lot of research before committing to this.

big_dong_de_jong · 2022-04-04T11:17:25+00:00

Bruh

d_pock_chope_bruh · 2022-04-04T11:56:09+00:00

I think you would be insane. I'm an American man, am 5'11" and want to know how I view short men? The same way I view tall men. I look at it as, that's not something we have much control over.

I care about the content of one's character. I associate with small, tall, yellow and green. All jokes aside, don't jeopardize your health and future. This isn't a tattoo, this is taking what the media emphasizes as important and shoving it down your throat. Take pride in who you are, because the vast majority of sane people quite frankly don't give two shits about how tall you are. Don't do it OP, not worth it!

Tribeless1 · 2022-04-04T12:57:14+00:00

As someone who’s 6’4” I’ve never really noticed height making much difference in my life. For me when I work on my confidence, that’s made all the difference in getting into relationships.

Since your asking about surgically increasing your height, I will say what I always advise women who ask about breast augmentation surgery: Do your research!

Find a good surgeon to operate, learn how long recovery time will be, remember that the more you change the more complications there can be.

Ask yourself why your really changing yourself, if your changing for others, you will never be happy. But if your changing for yourself then good luck and I wish you well.

zexwyomom · 2022-04-04T11:20:10+00:00

Im 5’9ish and wanna do that as well, if it would matter. I’m good looking on the face, I got muscular body, I don’t want my potential to be wasted, and I got funds. I am considering it seriously in the future depending on the circumstances.

ukfi · 2022-04-04T12:06:09+00:00

Yo mate.

I was from Asia - very close to the Philippines.

I am way shorter than you. I am only 1.65.

I am lean, not fat. I am not handsome in the conventional way.

But I make up for it in many other ways. I am always the center of the party. I can chat up anybody and make them laugh.

I have my fair share of pussy in London. The tallest girl I brought home was 1.8.

Spend your money elsewhere but this surgery.

ihasagi2urdicc · 2022-04-04T10:25:22+00:00

You’re fucked bro. Accept it you wont be tall

Amkg2020 · 2022-04-04T11:17:04+00:00

Honestly short Kings have bigger ding a lings and make up for it I wouldn't get it but I'm a tall king

2022-04-04T11:18:35+00:00

I think that if you’re insecure enough about yourself to do something stupid like this, you probably have a lot bigger problems in getting women than your height.

External_Lifeguard49 · 2022-04-04T11:36:22+00:00

We are definitely in a sick world. If guy ares really wanting to change their height because of women.

whatisthisaboutagain · 2022-04-04T12:31:43+00:00

As someone who is about 5'5"-5'6" and lives in the EU, you don't need this, height is only as much of a problem as you let it be.

Plus, I can think of 50 better ways to spend 85k$ than getting my legs broken and risk not ever being able to run again in my life just to gain 3 inches of height.

TheMinistryOfAwesome · 2022-04-04T12:44:56+00:00

Doing this is fucking stupid.

Doing this so you can potentially fuck more women, or even date more or do all the other great things you might find in a relationship is also stupid.

Putting aside all the risks, recovery and costs. It's just a crutch (rofl, right?) for failing to develop other parts of your character and self that might make you generally more attractive or valuable in terms of mate. If I was a chick and some dude had undergone surgery to increase their height, it'd be an absolute insurmountable red flag for me. "This guy is a car crash of a person that is so insecure about something relatively meaningless that it's just never not going to be an issue".

Normally I don't post any here anymore just because it all has become a little too 'tryhard' and overly thought out and rehashed same stuff for the general advice of: "Get your shit together and try not to be a cunt". But I feel in this case, you're staring down an oncoming freight train.

Let me put this in to words that might be better. If you're going to spunk 100k, months recovery in the name of getting women for a procedure that's likely to make you look worse (incorrect dimensions etc.) then you probably have bigger issues to worry about than getting laid. Some real esteem issues, or some kind of dysmorphia. Now, don't let me come across like I'm telling you things about yourself as if i know better - because I don't. But this is what it looks like to me when people post this kind of thing - but what do i know.

I think I could propose some alternatives that would make you more appealing without the trauma of leg surgery.

1) go to the fucking gym. spend monkey on membership for some good place and commit to going regularly

2) Pick some hobbies, or even just one that you can be really invested in and develop yourself mentally, physically, creatively or whatever. This just makes you generally more interesting.

3) Spend some money on yourself, make sure you take care of yourself and eat well and dress in a way that shows you value yourself.

4) Do something productive with your life. 100k to spare, and 30 hrs per week playing Fifa on Xbox? Well how about you try starting your own business? Or say invest in some self education that makes you generally more profitable in your own job.

I guarantee if you have invested in yourself whether it be getting jacked, or having real hobbies that are interesting or just having a job that gives you a lot of cash and (in turn) freedom to do interesting shit then you'll have literally 0 issues finding a girl.

It's very hard to be ugly if you're not a fat fuck or some kind of sit at home "gamer" with nothing more interesting in their life to talk about than the latest GDC. Getting loaded from your career/business also doesn't hurt - but this isn't just a light hearted sexist quip about all chicks being gold diggers. It's just about demonstrating that you can actually set yourself high order goals and achieve something meaningful.

Of course, feel entirely free to completely ignore everything i say and rationalise it with bullshit like "he doesn't know my situation" etc. And all I can say to that, is good luck finding dick enlarging surgery.

tl;dr don't fucking do it.

TMoA

Appropriate_Ad3327 · 2022-04-04T11:44:52+00:00

Bro don’t listen to these haters. Just go for it. As long as you choose a good surgeon, it’ll be worth it. Trust me, being tall helps significantly when it comes to attracting women.

Mriconicdev · 2022-04-04T10:35:42+00:00

Lolol

Deep_Ice4357 · 2022-04-04T12:22:08+00:00

Dude I’m 6’4, young (27), good looking and I don’t get girls at the moment. since a bad break up plus poor life decisions and drug/betting addictions. which has left my confidence, mindset, mental state and financial situation is all in the mud.

Just trying to say physical attributes aren’t gonna magically get you girls

metalisandman · 2022-04-04T11:23:44+00:00

Don’t be dumb. Wag maging tanga.

Miloslolz · 2022-04-04T11:49:55+00:00

No man learn to love yourself it's not the way to go.

My cousin is Bolivian who are among the shortest people and he came to live in here in Serbia and we're among the tallest people in the world and he's getting plenty of game.

This isn't the answer and you'll not be satisfied ESPECIALLY if it's just for women.

zeuswatch · 2022-04-04T11:57:21+00:00

dont be an idiot

Automatic_Green_4479 · 2022-04-04T11:58:09+00:00

JC man know your worth! No bitch is worth leg surgery...Break that hoe down and make her want lip implants is the way!

animan17 · 2022-04-04T12:10:52+00:00

Checkout Alpha M on YouTube. The guy himself is 5'6". But the way he conducts himself and the charisma he has, matters more. Don't damage your body, look for girls shorter or equal to your height if being taller matters to you in dating.

Robofrogg1 · 2022-04-04T14:15:38+00:00

This obsession with height is just out of control. Your height is FINE. Just stop, already.

2022-04-04T15:50:35+00:00

please dont do it

hotshot117 · 2022-04-04T11:32:33+00:00

They seem very insecure if they would do something painful and unnatural like that.

jbartix · 2022-04-04T12:17:44+00:00

How about you try to grow mentally and learn to accept your body as it is?

Netherus · 2022-04-04T12:17:49+00:00

You don't need a surgery to get taller to get busy with women. Despite what women say or show, they are primarily atracted by social status. Just focus on being social, making friends, have interesting hobbies, a strong personality and women will fall on your lap. Many women, specially tall women, don't care that much about height.

DragonEmperor18 · 2022-04-04T12:21:42+00:00

Don‘t do it. You’re likely to have numerous problems with your leg in future. Its not worth it

GWKBJ7 · 2022-04-04T12:31:46+00:00

Get out of form identity and back to the soul

Pine_Apple_Crush · 2022-04-04T12:44:00+00:00

So you would sacrifice potentially decades loss of movement and mobility just to get some women in a very 50/50 surgery. Legs don't repair themselves after being forcibly broken to be re lengthened. Like that doesn't even work in terms of joints and muscles.

I hate the idea that women don't date short men. Like if someone is judging you on height, they ain't worth shit and I hate the stereotype that we only look for height. If your hiding behind your lack of success because of your height I feel like there are underlying issues imo

2022-04-04T12:33:08+00:00

I am very serious when I tell you that the only doctor you need is a psychiatrist

2022-04-04T12:35:05+00:00

I think it's very sad someone would do that

marianoktm · 2022-04-04T12:41:53+00:00

Totally not worth it.
You're definitely not short.

BangaiiWatchman · 2022-04-04T12:42:30+00:00

That’s a little crazy. Try elevator shoes from Dons shoe shop before that.

dretsom · 2022-04-04T12:43:59+00:00

One important note is that you'll be avarage height in your new country. You are not even qualifying as tall there. Frankly a lot of people divide in 2 categories tall and smaller. In both your current and adapted situation you'll be. Smaller. Bot worth it, even when you dont consider the pain and strain this surgery will give you at a later date.

2022-04-04T12:47:36+00:00

So I think that’s a little…extreme. I have to be honest in that yeah height can be a big deal for some girls, but for most if your personality is great they don’t care. Women want emotional connections mostly which is why we tend to pull below what we actually could.

Insecurity can be a turn off so learn to love yourself. I know that’s easier said than done but women love a good personality and confidence.

Sincerely, a 5’ woman.

2022-04-04T12:49:31+00:00

Not worth it.

THER0v3r · 2022-04-04T12:49:52+00:00

ouch man, I’m 5’4, and Latino, and I get it it fucking suck and it’s horrible specially when trying to date someone, but I wouldn’t get a surgery like that

hotchocalatesauce · 2022-04-04T12:53:40+00:00

Don't bother. There are plenty of short people in relationship and plenty of short people who aren't. Same with Tall guy, so work on yourself.

JB_NSA · 2022-04-04T13:00:32+00:00

WTF??? Is this seriously a thing??

Bro, surgery is risky in and of itself... getting something like this just to earn admiration from a woman, IMO, is ludicrous. And is only feeding into the culture of shallowness that women propagate.

Be proud of who you are, and women will find you attractive, no matter your height.

riboflavin11 · 2022-04-04T13:00:44+00:00

What? Don't do that. The insecurity radiating off of you is Chernobyl level.

Don't get surgery to lengthen your legs, you're 5'7 not 4'7.

azius20 · 2022-04-04T13:03:39+00:00

That sounds incredibly dangerous and not worth the risk.

wj2smooth · 2022-04-04T13:03:59+00:00

I think you quite literally are average height my guy. You’re def already taller than many and if it truly bothers you, why don’t you stretch, yoga and fix your posture instead. These alone can give you an extra inch or two. Then there’s also larger soled shoes. I wouldn’t resort to surgery, not worth it at all

SEJ1970 · 2022-04-04T13:08:27+00:00

I never knew that was a thing...🤔 The things people do for acceptance... 😒😫

mrrooftops · 2022-04-04T13:10:49+00:00

Good luck with leg day in the gym...

alfadog77 · 2022-04-04T13:16:39+00:00

You can lengthen your legs but you can't lengthen your arms FYI, you'd look funny looking with tall legs and shorter arms

MoostWanted · 2022-04-04T13:17:07+00:00

Just let nature do it's thing

indrid_cold · 2022-04-04T13:22:34+00:00

I know of a dude who did this. There was some mistake, I think he did not follow through after the surgery with physical therapy or something. Anyway he's probably gonna spend the rest of his life with leg braces and crutches. He was 5'11" to begin with but he wanted to be taller. Dont do it.

epetty25 · 2022-04-04T13:23:01+00:00

You would not look proportional at all, totally not worth it
