I’m not tall for a man, only 190 but I wish I could meet girls taller me just to know what they see
Legs forever mmmm-mmm
He is a cutie, eh?
There’s also this picture
and this one
she’s yuuuuge!
Nice how the metric system of the images says its either 206cm or 207cm and the imperial system is like maybe 6’9’’ maybe 6’11’'.
That’s cool but I feel like it would be a nightmare being that tall.
The back problems will kick in early.
Knees go quicker, especially for athletes
Why? Height doesn’t automatically equate to back problems. Uneven weight distribution (belly, boobs, etc.), poor stretching habits, lack of excerise, bad posture/form/lifting, or injury equate to back problems at ANY height.
Its mostly because we gotta use the kitchen sink, bath sink, toilet chairs, bed, couch etc for mini people. So having to crouch all the time would do your back in quick.
Beingmuch closer to her height than his I can confidently say that’s just not true, short of your feet literally hanging off the end of a bed. You just have bad posture, bad form, and don’t stretch.
How old are you?
I have one nephew at 6’10” and another that is 7’1”. They both cope well enough even when challenged with size obstacles. They are young and generally positively motivated which helps.
Oh yeah, being young would be great. I’d dunk on everyone.
I will clarify that being in my forties there’s no way that would be a good time.
He has the best hair.
Holy cow. I thought this comment section would be filled with light hearted jokes. Some of yall need get your chronically online asses outside.
The is the most reddit esque comment section I’ve seen on lemmy and it’s gross
That’s a light-hearted take. Why do some people like to work themselves into a froth with their imaginary scenarios?

There are plenty of reasonable comments. Most have more upvotes than the sexualizing ones. That said, look closely at what she is wearing in the pic. If she put shorts on, the sides of that thing would still be above the shorts. The image was designed to have sexual appeal. She is showing more skin than most people have. So of course some people are going to go in that direction. Men in general haven’t evolved enough not to.
With an image designed to have sexual appeal, is it wrong to see the sexual appeal?
Nope, never said it was. I was saying that with such an image, one should expect sexualized comments.
Lemmy is pretty great compared to reddit so long as the topics stay away from anything to do with feminism or women’s rights. Otherwise it starts to feel like the reddit cesspit is leaking, and it’s depressing. Anyone remember the few days when “the bear” discussion took over the fediverse? Those were dark times. Or any time someone even mentions the word “mansplaining”, even if it’s satirical.
She should be using Linux instead.
Lemmy is full of the worst reddit bullshit. I was genuinely surprised at first, primarily because I thought it was going to be a bit of a refuge from bottom of the barrel idiocy. Instead, it’s the worst of it.
The unbelievably pathetic trash is why I am still looking for a good reddit alternative. Seeing all of the problems we solved on reddit years ago is honestly kind of sad.
Lemmy is designed to solve only one of Reddit’s problems, and by solve, I mean make it so it does not require complete abandonment of the platform when things go bad. The things you’re complaining about exists because Lemmy works very similar to Reddit in a lot of things, so the discourse will also go down the same path eventually.
The same thing will happen if you look for other Reddit alternatives unless it is not only specifically designed to avoid them but also succeed in doing so.
Seeing all of the problems we solved on reddit years ago is honestly kind of sad.
How were they solved?
I’m not disagreeing with you but try using a period now and again they don’t cost any money
Can’t tell if sarcasm or dumbfuck.
Why not both?
G.o.f.u.c.k.y.o.u.r.s.e.l.f. I use proper punctuation in my work emails and thats about it. This is the best youll get
.
We need more humanitarians on the ground like you, selflessly distributing punctuation in war-torn regions.
Irony.
Nah, this is about what I expected… why else would it get 600 upvotes?
shes an amazon.
female hercules: her stats show that she’s 100 kgs of pure muscle.
GOOD thing she isn’t Trans! OTHERWISE she would have an Unfair Advantage! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

I’m scaroused.
But it’s paramount that we ban the 5’5" trans girl who has testosterone lower than cis girls from playing volleyball because…reasons.
You clearly don’t know much about the sport. Women’s net is far lower because there’s a significant physical power difference between men and women. It’s not just about average height.
Can I just ogle the nice lady in peace?
I mean the trans girls just want to play volleyball in peace.
Stop making shit up to fit your narrative. It detracts from the actual issue.
We all know you what you really meant:
“Stop drawing conclusions from empirical data, it interferes with my prejudice and bigotry.”
Or, did you actually think you were courageously taking a stand for…what, exactly? Being a jerk?
Did it really never occur to you that choosing to let your ignorant fear shape your perspective makes you weak??
Lol. There is plenty of empirical data to show that the best men are better than the best women.
Have a gander at the records in all sports.
If that does t cut it, how about the European studie that tested the strength and fitness of over 2 million kids. It showed that top 5% of male at birth is stronger than top 1% of at the age of 9. It gets much, much more skewed after puberty.
None of this proves the op comment you replied to was “making shit up”, their only claim was that some trans women have less testosterone than cis women.
Please tell me you didn’t realize we’re talking about athletes that have undergone HRT and this study isn’t applicable in that case.
Not even the top men high school boys where better then the top female athletes.
There are of course differences depending on the sport. But eventually the best men are better than the best women, which is the whole issue summed up. At the very least in physical sports.
Explosive sports exposes the issue more clearly. Which is why 15 year old boys win against the womens national team in football (soccer). 14 year olds have beat elite teams in womens hockey.
There is plenty of empirical data to show that the best men are better than the best women.
Wow.
We could pretend that you forgot to say something about “when it comes to sports” or some other kind of qualifier, but we all know that’d be a lie.
So, thank you for proving my point. It is truly just sad and pathetic the way you try to pretend like you even know empirical data means.
Take your bigotry and shove a back up your ass where it belongs.
(Did you really think that quoting an extremely widely discredited study that did not involve any empirical data whatsoever was some kind of gotcha? Jesus Christ, that’s just pathetic)
For the record, obsessing over other people’s genitalia is just fucking weird.
2 million people tested. Seems pretty solid if you ask me.
We could pretend that you forgot to say something about “when it comes to sports” or some other kind of qualifier, but we all know that’d be a lie.
Well, we are talking about sports? Are you actually trying to undermine my argument just because you can’t follow context? Stop arguing if you have nothing other than bad faith to come with.
Give me a better study showing that the trans medication actually works. The best anyone has given so far was a study showing 15 random people of Facebook that didn’t even compete in sports.
Whoa. Seriously? So if we’re not talking about sports you seriously just believe men are better than women.
Yeah goodbye. I’m done with you
ESAR.
And only bad faith readings from you since you can’t understand that we are talking about sports.
Go lick a salt block or something.
How many of these best men become trans? Can you name a few?
Doesn’t matter if, but that they could.
What am I making up? This woman almost certainly has athletic advantages far greater than the vast majority of the trans athletes people get so apoplectic about.
Stop making shit up to fit your narrative. It detracta (sic) from the actual issue.
Yes. Her being born that way is completely fair. As she was born that way. Same goes for Caster Semenya.
Taking drugs to “alter” is against all sports.
But hey, South Park said it best.
There is no such thing as fair in sports.
I guarantee she wasn’t born that tall
I guarantee you that she didn’t take medicines to get that tall.
Who made that claim?
They made the comment that she wasnt born tall, like an idiot. Implying that she wouldn’t have been tall naturally.
If someone has ADHD and takes medication - as directed - to help them focus on their training regiment, would that make you as upset? It’s certainly a drug to “alter,” as you say.
I suppose if all could take adderall, then it wouldn’t be an issue.
I think you are missing the point of competition though.
Pretty sure the point is fun and entertainment. Some people care about finding the “best,” but as the saying goes, it’s not about whether you win or lose…
Now there is the actual issue at hand. Of course its about competition. That is the entire crux of the issue, and you can’t just wave it of like some irreverent side matter in the case of sports.
Kids already play mixed, since gender differences are small enough to be negligible. That is when the fun part matters the most.
I just find it funny that people are so willing to put actual trans rights in jeopardy just for the slight inconvenience of barely a dozen trans women in the US. Or you actually think it’s ok for men to compete with women?
Oh, so you’re just a bigot. Figured.
So were you just born stupid or did you take something to perform at this level?
Nope, i transitioned.
And we respect that transition by calling you stupid, I don’t see why you can’t do the same.
Get fucked, asshat.
Hey man if you ever find yourself in a situation where they make drugs that can make you better I think you should take them
Just go forcefully insert a cactus into your anus already. No one cares about you.
Damn, she has long legs
