it's not as great as nikkas think it is.

Like I've said on here before it has it's has it's ups and downs
Like a lot of women will give you the :shaq: look, I get them when I honestly think I'm average looking dude.
But I was just at the galleria going from store to store to find shyt my size for 2 hours

Fly economy is a nononononono, your legs will need to be amputated by time the flight ends if you don't get an aisle seat.
But sometimes you can luck up if you get the seat next to the emergency exit because those sometimes have more leg room

And I can't imagine being a tall unsuccessful nikka, it would just amplify the "big for nothing" narratives, "damn, if I was as tall as you I would be in the league"

Probably not nikka :upsetfavre:
I think the discomforts are worth it though but again I don't have that height that you nikkaz have but it comes with the territory it's a hell of a lot better waking up average.

I doubt you're over 6 foot. Don't see a tall person making this thread.

I'm over 6'5. Not all it's cracked up to be. And it can be annoying having people watching you all the time everywhere you go
I had a bad case of social anxiety from ages 14-18 relating to my height
I hated standing out in public, I'm already a pretty introvert person.

Luckily I outgrew it in college.

It's a grass is greener thing, two of my close friends are 5'10
I used to evny their heights and builds because we were really into japanese streetwear and shoes in high school
but almost none of the shyt could fit me, bape/neighborhood/mastermind/commesdesgarcon, and searching for size 14 shoes was a nightmare.

The clothes would just fit them so live, I was never a slouch when it came to dressing, but I wasn't able to pull off the fits like they could.

If you not tall just be a well dressed fly nikka, it's balances out.

The key is to hangout with male friends

This lame.

The opposite is true, nothing like walking in the building with two or three other cats who are at or near the same height and seeing all the heads turn like :ohhh:

Then seeing all the women transition to :whoo: then :shaq: .

And all the dudes hit that :dame:then :birdman:

Tall doesn't mean shyt on its on if you're built like hangman. A dude like the rock 6'4 and jacked up is a good balance but outside of lebron tall dudes can get lanky and awkward proportion. Looking like Slenderman and shyt

fukking loser. Get you some damn self confidence. If you had any, you wouldn't have made a thread telling people you wish you were in the body of a different man

You sound like a faq. It's nikkas born paraplegic, without limbs, kids with terminal illnesses, and all sorts of incomprehensibly fukked up problems but you wanna complain about being "average"? Sissy ass nikka who gives af about your weak ass problems? If you're fr you should seriously kill yourself you bytch. I hate a motherfukker complaining for no reason when it's people with real fukked up problems that deal with them. I bet you don't ever leave you house to see that there a people with infinitely worse problems than just being "average." What if you were 6'5" and homeless or very sick; would you life be any better than it is now because you have a few more in. of height? You need to come into the real world because where I'm from nikkas ain't got time to think about shyt like this

One of my favorite albums is urban legend. But that album also made me feel one of the lowest points in my life. In relation that is.

When i heard ti say ,"5'9 with the heart of a 6'4 nigguh", I was like aint no way that nigguh close to me height. I always thought i was tall enuff an contempt but hearing that nigguh call himself 5"9 and i was 5' 10 3/4" just made me feel small for some reason:francis:
Do you say shyt like this to your boys irl? I know if you said this weak ass insecure sounding shyt to me I'd laugh in your face and clown tf out of you

I'm 6'6 breh, I saw how big I was in relation to the world around me when I was watching myself on my home security camera and I filled out the entire doorway. I asked my girl, damn im that freakishly big :dahell: she said yea nikka you just figuring this out :heh:

Either way, theres pluses and minuses to being that tall. I'm honestly borderline too tall, I think a decent spot for the average breh is around 6'3. Don't get me wrong theres nothing wrong at all with being taller than that but the world isn't designed for nikkas this tall.

Plane rides are terrible outside of business class, clothes and shoes almost never in your size especially if you have size, constantly bumping your head hard on shyt, uncomfortable in cars and shyt, etc... but it is what it is.

His girl ofcourse is short

Not sure how old you are, but I feel like a lot of this is doofy stuff that uncoordinated teenagers go through. I can't remember the last time I bumped my head on anything or the last time I wasn't able to finagle some room in a car man. I feel like the clothes thing is only a problem for teenagers too. More below...

it's not as great as nikkas think it is.

Like I've said on here before it has it's has it's ups and downs

But I was just at the galleria going from store to store to find shyt my size for 2 hours

90% of the time, that "trendy" shyt ends up looking silly and try hard, so it's not that big a deal if you can't fit into some off-the-rack stuff man.

I heard this interview with Rick Fox where he was like, "yea, I used to try and dress a certain way and pull of certain fits but that's just not how I'm built." A lightbulb went off in my head, like, this handsome dude who could pull any girl recognized that he wasn't built like other cats and had to truly embrace who he was. I've been on that ever since. I'm not built like other nikkas and I love that shyt. Truly. I began looking for other folks like models, athletes, professional wrestlers, etc. who aren't built like "their kind" and modeled my swagger after them until I developed my own.

I realized that while some goofy trendy shirt may fit a 6'0" friend of mine, he has nothing on...



or a nikka like Badr Hari, towering over folks dressed to kill...

or...




I had a bad case of social anxiety from ages 14-18 relating to my height
I hated standing out in public, I'm already a pretty introvert person.

Luckily I outgrew it in college.

I feel like a lot of big dudes don't truly embrace their size because they were made to feel a certain way throughout middle school and high school. Like, "oh my god, he's sooooo tall." And during that time, cats feel awkward about the attention they get unless it is positive. So if you a tall, thin, and handsome dude who plays basketball, it works out for you during those years (and even then it can be shaky). But if you a little goofy or a little unsure of yourself or a little thick or a little too thin and gangly or whatever else, it feels awkward as shyt.

Just end up seeing a lot of big dudes who keep that goofy demeanor throughout their adult life (to avoid intimidating people) or who are never quite comfortable with themselves and kind of fukk up because of it.

Being a big dude is the shyt, but you gotta be on point to make it work. If you some goofy dude who lacks confidence, it looks 10x worse if you're 6'6". But if you in the gym, dressed right, confidence and all that, you absolutely stand out more.

Lot of dudes get stuck in that, "I just want to fit in" nonsense and try to wear what other nikkas wear and act like other nikkas act.

You just absolutely cannot do that shyt.

Being in shape, in the gym, coordinated, well dressed probably means more to big dudes than anyone else. nikkas could be out here looking like...
