Height and diminishing returns

[fred_herbert]

Extra height gives diminishing returns. If you are 5'5 an additional inch of height will be much more impact than if you are 5'11.

In statistical terms, if someone is 5'5 and becomes 5'7, the extra 2 inches would increase his dating pool by a huge amount. If before that it was all women < 5'5 (50% of women) now it will be all women < 5'7 (75% of women), that's a gain of 75/50 - 1 = 50%. He can now date 50% more women.

If we do the same exercise with someone who is average, let's say 5'10. He can currently date all women < 5'10 (90% of women), if he becomes 6 feet, he can date all women < 6' (98% of women), his gain is thus 98 / 95 - 1 = 3%, he can date now only 3% more women.

So in conclusion, height matters a lot if you are short, the taller you get the less it matters. So in the end it is the manlets who are fucked. If you are average height or slightly below that's no excuse for inceldom. This also explains why so many manlets are incel, the smaller the dating pool the smaller the probability of finding a girl that is interested.

The calculations above asume that women do not require a minimum height difference, i.e. being taller is enough, by how much doesn't matter.

can isnt the same thing as will. a foid can be 4'10 and a 5'5 man will still be trash in her eyes, she would even pick the 5'2 man who has a chad face over him but then again she wouldnt deal with such manlets to begin with, she would pick someone who is 5'9 or over.

Diminishing returns start at 7'0''. Once you start looking freaky.

Germanics are naturally tall people. Theyre better equiped to deal with being very tall. Ethinks at that height almost certainly have a genetic disorder on the other hand.

Alot of ethnic basketball players are taller and completely normal. Shaq comes to mind, I reckon he even framemogs this German guy at similar height

your theory is wrong. with height preference , the height of a woman does not enter in to it, only the mans. a woman at 5 ft , can easily get a man 6'2 or at any other height . a man at 5'6 cant get a woman over that or at 5'6,5'4, 5'2 maybe lower if he impressed her. but you cant impress a woman if a taller man is near you.

I also had similar ideas and it's definately true that an inch at 5'5 is worth more than an inch it at 6', though I don't think it flattens out so much like in your graph.
