What genetic factors play into height?
Has anyone figured this out yet? I keep reading things like "maybe if you ate your greens you would've grown more", but what about people like me whose parents cooked every other day and fed me healthy food. Lots of meats, greens and very little junk food. I got plenty of exercise, was an athlete in high school and still I didn't grow to average or above average height? By comparison, one of my best friends in High School ate nothing but junk food (candy, sweets, etc). They say that height is 80% genetic and 20% environmental. Anyone have any insight as to which genes play into height and what a person can do to mitigate short stature? Not that there's anything wrong with it, but I'm curious. |

Those times when you see younger family or friends after a few years
Had this moment yesterday at a family cookout. I was sort of a reunion. Can't tell you how I felt after a whole bunch of my younger family members bragged that they grew past me. You think a fat women would tell other fat family members and friends "oh, I just went past you, I'm thinner than you now". This insensitivity towards something you can't change versus something that can easily be changed is unbelievable. |

Will short men be wiped out of the genome in the future?
Designer babies are going to be the norm one day or at least in the hands of the elite classes. Even without artificially manipulating DNA in the lab, women are choosing men who are 6'+ and have degrees, and mostly white. They also go to college more than men and make sufficient income. They can go on Tinder and OKCupid and select guys with the traits that they want. Where does this leave short guys like us? |

Wife doesn't want short kids, so suggests sperm donor to husband
This stuff is unreal. Visit this reddit thread where a woman suggests that they should use a sperm donor to have a kid instead of his actual sperm. What a slap in the face. Even if you get married you have to walk on eggshells as a short man.

Child made comment on short man
How would you view this... A small child points out a man who is clearly short by calling him a "small daddy". The mother did nothing to correct the child, but just runs away in embarrassment. How do you take something like this? Like if it were you that it happened to? |

A question for the men...
Would you rather have one more inch in height... or one more inch in penis size? Yes this is a weird question but me and my boyfriend began discussing it and he assured me most men, not matter how short, would take in inch down there over over-all height. |

Short men vs thin women
I got something I want to through out there. Women like to complain and say they dont want to have a baby with a short dude. What about the women out there who are thin or have very narrow hips? They end up having trouble with birthing children in like 75% of cases and yet us men don't say NO I DONT WANT A BABY WITH YOU! They have a legit issue and our height does not effect child birth. Just venting but I find this stupid logic on women and guys who believe this too. |

Are the fathers short too?
Strange question but upon thinking back, almost every single girl/woman I have ever dated also had a father who is on the shorter side. Do you think this is why these women are more accepting/care less about a man's height? |

Why tall men have more children
Article is here Researchers say that tall men have the most children because they are universally considered more attractive. According to them taller men are six times more likely than a short man to have a fourth child. Scientists surmized that since taller men are considered more attractive, they will have more sexual opportunities. |

Taller brothers?
That is what I would have done too. How old were you and how old was she when this happened? That makes a huge difference too. |

How does your family take your height?
Quote: Originally posted by GoKnicks I did. One of my cousins and all his friends would crack jokes. Mario, Might Mouse, Vegeta, ect. Anyone short. It got annoying. I got fed up and ended up punching him. Not a smooth move but he never did it again. We didn't talk almost 2 years after that and when we did, he apologized.
Marked for the Vegeta reference. haha And damn I am sorry to hear that but atleast he manned up in the end. |
