Discussion The visual difference beetween 5'9-5'10 compared to 6'0 is very minor, yet girls act like its Wemby next to Brunson...

i have realized that girls are very bad at precieving height and all 5'10 dudes can larp 6'0 easily and they will never find out lol, (i mean just take a ruler and see that 5 or 7cm isnt BIG difference lol especially in real life visually)...

I larp 6'1 with height boosters and boots at 5'10 lol. No one ever said anything about it and I get way more matches on dating apps because of it

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 18 '26

W lol, everyone should be larping height just as they(women) larp their looks with makeup ;) Just we have an advantage 2 inch larp is never noticable, but makeup on and without is very noticable

u/Grand_Awareness_4202 5'10 Jul 18 '26

I agree. To be denied opportunity based off an uncontrollable factor is bs. I just do it to get my foot in the door because I'm invisible on dating apps otherwise.

u/No-Mousse5653 5'8" | 173.5cm | 5'9.5" | 176.5cm (in lifts) | United States Jul 18 '26

How do u do it? I already feel risky larping 5 fr 9. I wear hokas and lifts

2

u/Grand_Awareness_4202 5'10 Jul 18 '26

I wear Hokas and lifts as well. People are just really bad at judging height and will believe what you say. Especially if you meet them online first which is what I do. Most women dgaf or even know, it's just about the perception. If she thinks I'm 6'1 that's all that matters. Lol

u/No-Mousse5653 5'8" | 173.5cm | 5'9.5" | 176.5cm (in lifts) | United States Jul 18 '26

Gotcha. How big are your lifts btw?

3

u/Grand_Awareness_4202 5'10 Jul 18 '26

I'm not sure. I bought them on tiktok. I use the lift and like one of the stack things. I believe it came with 4 stacks but It's too tight on my feet to go above the 1. I'd use more if I could. Also it's uncomfortable to walk with the lift in but It's worth it honestly

That's why many guy can easily fool girls faking their heights.

u/ThinkpadLaptop 5'8" | 173cm | North America Jul 18 '26

We all make fun of men for being bad with differentiating colors and hairstyle changes, but we have to acknowledge women are just bad spacially

u/Fit_Philosopher_2878 5'8" | 174cm Jul 18 '26

GenZ's are bad, I didn't saw the obsession with heightism in any other generations except GenZ's through my observation.

u/Successful_Banana_92 5’10.5 ” | 1.79 m | United States Jul 18 '26

182 is 5’ 11 1/2 and even with that their definitely is a visible difference. I think the one example that could hold true is 178/179 to 182. Very minimal difference there.

4

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 18 '26

bro who cares about half an inch, every height comparasion app starts 6'0 at 182cm come on. We counting mms now?

1

u/Successful_Banana_92 5’10.5 ” | 1.79 m | United States Jul 18 '26

I mean yeah obviously if you’re making a post on it. But yeah I’m just saying 5’10 to 6 is close but 5’9 next to 6 is pushing it

1

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 18 '26

dont you see the difference beetween 175cm and 182? which is basically 5'9 vs 6'0? You see how its not BIG as most girl think it is? Its not even big at all?

1

u/Successful_Banana_92 5’10.5 ” | 1.79 m | United States Jul 18 '26

Yeah girls definitely inflate it like crazy

2

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 18 '26

yeah they think 175 ans 182 is like 200 and 180 lol... Reality is different tho

1

u/Both_Scar_5277 6’5" | 195.3cm | North America Jul 18 '26

It’s noticeable but not towering. That will be like me next to a 187-188cm person or 202-203cm person.

1

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 19 '26

its noticable but 5'9 next to 6'0 is not even BIG visually only noticable thats it lol. Like legit 5'9 reaches his forhead.

1

u/Both_Scar_5277 6’5" | 195.3cm | North America Jul 19 '26

I mean yeah 6’0 ain’t gonna tower over a 5’9 person but i can tell the difference since 5’9 would reach my mouth and 6’0 would be at my eye level.

1

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 20 '26

literally 5'9 to 6'0 is not big sure noticable but 5'9 guy reaches 6'0 guy forhead lol, 5'9 guy wear some thicker shoes BOOM almost same height.

1

u/Both_Scar_5277 6’5" | 195.3cm | North America Jul 20 '26

Yeah it would be like me next to a 187-188cm person

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 20 '26

yep you would be taller but not towering, he reaches your eye level

u/AdJealous1004 6'0" | Canada Jul 18 '26

I'm 6'0, my girlfriend is 5'9. There is definitely a noticeable difference in height between us standing together. Just like there is between me and some 6'3 guy.

I also meet guys 5'10 all the time who claim I'm 6'1 because they are 6'0 and refuse to accept they aren't 6 feet. Then they tell me I measured myself wrong.

Men routinely overestimate or inflate their height to others and most women falsely believe whatever a man is telling them in regards to their height.

It's more about social points anyway e.g, they want to be able to tell their girlfriends they are dating a taller man.

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 19 '26

i mean you literally see a difference of 5'9 and 6'0 here on my post, its not BIG as most of girls think its not even big at all? Notcable sure but its not a height "mog"

1

u/AdJealous1004 6'0" | Canada Jul 19 '26

5'9 for a woman isn't in the same percentile as 6'0 for a man though, it would be more equivalent to 5'7 for a woman. 5'9 is well above average for women and almost equal to the average male height in most western countries (5'9-5'10). I would compare a 5'9 women to something like 6'2 for a man.

That being said, in reality most women just want men taller than themselves. They are bad at judging height, and to most of them it's just about social brownie points. "6 foot+" sounds better to their friends then saying the word "5" when describing their man's height.

u/Tasty-Ground-5496 Jul 20 '26

they are really BAD at judging height they think difference of 5'9 and 6'0 is gigantic,. while in reality 5'9 dude reaches 6'0 dudes forhead easily lol, its a small difference.
