Lol but that argument is exactly why white people in some places aren’t allowed to talk racism coz they’re white and male. You don’t need to actually be the actual person of topic to understand something. I believe it’s men who have said that pregnancy pain is extremely painful due to science they know that, they don’t actually need to be a female to know this lol. Just like them saying what I had was crazy fkn pain.
And again had a female specialist said it wasn’t as painful as pregnancy pain if she hadn’t had a baby how would she know? See it opens up a big ugly soily bag of worms.
But science ain’t true! Lol! However I see Nothing wrong on making comments on things..and some things are too ‘precious’ to touch..but at end of the day this is a comparison not a comment..

Ps..I’m still glad you made it through..must’ve been excruciating..

Well you would certainly hope Iran not about quotas rather if they can perform their job, but it’s actually the opposite, you need only look at the federal police in Australia lol, they have this 50:50 ratio of kennel and women to employ. It’s ridiculous to think people better suited for the job will miss out for quotas which is exactly what happens. It’s not sexist to say men are better suited for physical jobs it’s just facts.
But you’re right paramedics are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, coz usually when you get an ambulance you’re in fkn trouble and having a random be that comforting in that time of need does a great deal for that person in need of help
Well I actually believe Police on the beat should be at least 6 foot tall and weigh over 200 pounds (muscle to fat ratio high)..and have passed strength..fighting..and endurance standards..they should be physically ready for action..

I enviously agree hahaha. With boots I’ll be max 180cm I think which is still relatively short to some ***** you see running around on the streets. They used to have that implemented until a couple decades ago coz shorties felt discriminated against haha like myself.

Vikings were under 180

Yes they were huge back in the day
But short on today's man
There were Knights during the middle ages that were seen as giants. People talked about them like they were the tallest men that ever lives. Historians predict that the tallest one would have been 6 foot tall at the most. The height difference between then and today most likely comes down to nutrition. Knights came from rich families so they had the nutrition to grow more but still wouldn't have a diet like we have now days.

There's this funny thing with genetics when it comes to height. Scientists predict 60-80% of a person's height is caused by genetics while the other 20-40% is caused by environmental factors (mainly nutrition) but there's a slight problem with the whole 60-80% part. No one knows what causes a person to be tall genetically. Scientists have narrowed down the genes that they think make a person tall but based on their predictions men and women should be the same height, and height should be completely random with no genetic influence. Problem is that men are mostly taller than women and other than a small percentage of aberrations, height does run in the family. Tall parents have tall children. Short parents have short children. And for some unknown reason the youngest child will often be the tallest, and children will often be taller than their parents.

stop shitting on my fantasies lol
Speaking of Vikings, I ran into Travis Fimmel a few weeks back (the guy that plays Ragnar Lothbrok in Vikings). He looks a bit small on TV but in real life I swear he looks tiny. He barely comes up to my chest. After I met him I looked up his height on Google and it says he's about 6 foot tall. I'm 6'3" and I felt like I was nearly twice his height.

183cm is 6ft my man..so it’s pretty close.. Remember Jake ‘the Muss’ in Once Were Warriors’? He looked a big dude in the film..tall and pumped..he was played brilliantly by Temuera Morrison who is only 1.71cm..I’ve meet him..only little guy.. He said it was all in the boots..made him over 6ft..so @Realist90 hold onto that dream bro! :D

Ps..Jake today is the small guy in the back in the white shirt..compare him to the second pic..which was taken at the time of filming..

Size isn't everything but it's definitely a defining factor. A small guy can take down a big guy if he's fast enough and really knows how to fight, but we're talking about a street fight, not a sanctioned boxing match.

To do it the small guy has to go for the vital points. Balls, eyes, temple. Anything to take the guy down as fast as possible.

I remember before the UFC McGregor v Diaz, this question about taller v shorter fighters was being asked. An interesting stat that came out was: title fights between 2013 and 2016 and found that in fights where there was a difference in height, the taller fighter won 24 fights and the shorter fighter won 22.
