It doesn't look too hilarious in reality, since nobody notices it after it's a daily deal, and I do mentioned it to people when I wear normal shoes, but I prefer not to do this to destroy my concrete image. My legs are short for my torso, so it looks really normal as if I am balancing my legs a little bit. Now if I had long legs, and a short torso it would be problematic. Still, the height increase isn't massive say 5 inches, but if I were to walk in 5 inch elevator shoes I would be more concern if my feet look normal. And then the second concern would be my shoulder width and hand size to match up with that height. But still I do not want 5 inch elevator shoes.
For example, I would say "Did you grew taller?", and the person didn't even recognize the height difference. The shoes looks normal too, and most people assume that shoes give half an inch of height anyways. Days I am wearing the shoes, people that are 5'10 or 5'11 are more closer to eye level then without them I feel like a midget It's hilarious for me sometimes, but I think from their perspective that if I am still shorter than them then they will still perceive me as such until I suddenly became taller.
Then when I walk, I usually go to the center of a hallway so people will recognize that I am a person of importance, since psychologically objects in the center grab the attention even if physically I appear normal.
I am an expert of this kind of stuff, since I spend a tons of hour on my image and on appearances.
Just so you know, I am still a typical guy (no estrogen).
People will move to side if a person is a lot taller than them, it's like they have dominance over people, like afraid of being crushed.
If I was a typical male, I still want to be 5'7, it just looks perfect to me; male or female.
Like James Dean, Brigitte Bardot, Angeline Jolie, and a bunch of other random people. More so guys at this height.
And James Dean is hot... his HS senior basket ball registration saids 5.75 to be completely accurate, which is exactly where I stand at too, but I prefer to say 5.7 to be clear idea.
and it has a cute factor when used too,
I am pathetic though, but I like to be able to be versatile on my ability to use myself in every situation I need too. Sometimes being shorter than average is better, and sometimes (in the workforce in corporate/manual stuff, with tall women for dating in general) it's not. But let's say your job is being a waiter, then people in general sometimes see you more easier to approach too then say a 6'2 guy, especially if you are attractive guy. But if you want to demand something and get it then a 6'2 guy will get it. It really just depends... intelligence on knowing when it will be better to be short or not, matters.
Better off being able to change the look of myself easily, then being 6'2 or 5'2. Like having that mouse blonde hair can easily become platinum or deep brown. Or having a medium metabolism... average is sometimes better than non-averages. Versatile, adaptability, and stuff. That's the reason why extinction occurs because the species couldn't adapt.
If I need to become tall then I will become so, and if I need to become short I will do that too.
