[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If short women are so concerned about their child's height why didn't they marry taller?  What did you think was going to happen marrying a short man?[/quote]

Every week we have a post from some DCUM fretting about her short son.

Some men are just short. And they are especially likely to be so if they have short parents.

Are you going to inject him with exogenous hormones because of the genetics with you bequeathed him? [/quote]

5’3 is not a genetically expected height for a boy with parents who are 5’8 and 5’3 (neither of which are actually short heights). Just because TikTok told you anything below 6’ is “short” doesn’t make it factually true.  :roll: [/quote]

I have always heard boys take after their mother’s heights. So if the mom is short (and 5’3” is short) then their son has a higher chance of being short.

While my DH is taller than me (5’10”) I am a tall woman (5’7”). Our son who is young still is in the 99th percentile for height.  Not surprising. [/quote]

Hahahaha in no world is 5’7” considered “tall” for a woman. [/quote]

5’7” is ideal for a woman. My 13 year old is 5’7” and I hope she is done growing.  Her clothes fit so well.   She fits into spaces perfectly.   The world is made for people whose height is in the middle.  [/quote]
