Im worse than short. Im a bit over average but have short legs and a long torso π
Day 2 of reminding the fediverse there are women who prefer shorter guys (source: am one of them). If y'all don't want them I'll take them. I'll take them all.
I imagine there are even women out there who care more about a man's personality than their height...
Being short isn't your fault, being a dull cunt is.
I can assure you that there are EVEN MORE women out there care about personality AND height...

He only waited till he got a green belt.
Call that the cunt punt.
No joke, I wish I could gift some height to another to be shorter.
Unless you have a passion for cramped supercars or exceed the height of most door frames⦠why? The ability to reach the top shelf and things placed at height is just so invaluable. And provided you take care of them, knees and hips still allow you to rummage through things on the down low.
Now, if youβre so tall that you routinely crack your forehead on door framesβ¦ yeah. I could see why. But then the question becomes, what is affecting your coordination such that it prevents you from earning millions by throwing an orange ball through a netted hoop?
Not OP but the first three things I already experienced today were: Knee and backpain, standing out in a crowd, needing to slightly bend down vor everything in most standard kitchens.
Knee and backpain
Some people lose the genetic lottery in this regard, true, but unless you are elderly, most people can avoid back and leg pain by exercising, stretching, and taking care of your body.
standing out in a crowd
Counterpoint: finding the person you are looking for in a crowd.
needing to slightly bend down vor everything in most standard kitchens.
If you are under the age of 35, I fully acknowledge how the deck of house ownership is stacked against you. But once you own your own home, you can⦠remodel. Kitchens also come in Big & Tall designs, and not all short(er) spouses mind taller countertops. The kitchen that came with my house is sized perfectly for my wife, and yet she finds the height that woukd be ideal for my height to also be more attractive for her as well.

I think both of us would be cool with it if I gave height to my buddy until we were the same. I think that puts both of us exactly at average.
On your knees then

Must change your DNA...
The leg lengthening we can do these days doesn't need or cause a DNA change. Look it up. It's simultaneously fascinating and horrifying.
I understand, why not just use stilts or shoes with large soles? You would be proportionally off, wouldn't it be weird to be 6 foot tall and have short arms?
What part of be taller is the goal?
Most often it's done because of a developmental problem where one leg segment has come out slightly shorter than its counterpart on the other leg, affecting gait and posture. Only one or two bones need to be lengthened if the patient is lucky. Shortening the other leg is probably also an option, but I figure people would want to do something to the affected leg, rather than muck about with the "healthy" one.
There is at least one instance that I recall where someone born with a form of dwarfism had all four limbs - all twelve bones - extended to "normal" length. As to whether it was strictly ethical to do that is an entirely different matter, considering the patient was a child.
I mean, it's definitely the best time of life to have the lengthening done what with bones being greener and still growing anyway, but the patient wasn't exactly in the position to be making an informed decision about whether they wanted to go through it.
What does that have to do with a woman wanting a taller man?
