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.

MODERATORS
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.
Having partners the same height and relative size as you is great as you get to effectively double your wardrobes.
Granted this works best when you both have similar tastes in fashion though.
Dating someone of equal height: you can easily kiss on the lips without anyone awkwardly bending to reach
Dating someone shorter: every hug gets a bonus motor-boating

Height and attractiveness have nothing to do with each other for me, but I do wish someone would find a way to make my wife taller so I wouldn't have to keep getting things off of the top shelves in the cabinets for her.

He only waited till he got a green belt.
No joke, I wish I could gift some height to another to be shorter.
On your knees then
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 you’re so tall that you routinely crack your forehead on door frames… 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.

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.

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.

Im worse than short. Im a bit over average but have short legs and a long torso 💀
The otter look. It's a good look. Get fit, dress right.
I am fit. I have very broad shoulders from playing water polo and i started swimming at 4 so i look like a dorrito with two short legs.

Not shown: Big Bird's bones breaking, because that's how leg extension surgery works.
Cartoon violence inflicted on a rude person displayed in a comic strip has somehow started a war about "incels" and "toxic masculinity"; meanwhile, I've never watched Sesame Street and I was over here thinking Big Bird was a girl.
Follow That Bird is the second-best Muppet movie (after The Muppet Movie) and I will fight you if you say otherwise.
Otherwise.
You are dead.
Lengthening your legs, which will screw you up in a number of ways, is the most cucked thing you can do. Imagine letting the opinions of people online guide your behavior in such a drastic way.
Kek, I like kick woman too
