| Post subject: | Calling all tall men! Tips? |
Hey ya'll I've been in the community for a little while now and I've read post upon post about short, short men and how they're worried how it might mess with their game. I'm here for us tall men. I was out a couple nights ago and a friend of mine pulled me aside and said something along the lines of "Hey man, good work but you gotta watch your posture and chicken pecking. I know your tall and its hard not to, so maybe you should ask other tall PUs on how they do it." So, I'm here to ask, what do you tall guys do to make sure you don't chicken peck all night? |

hey im like 6 foot 4 not incredibly tall but im only like 185 and 19 so i have a slim athletic look. The key thing is just to look comfortable all the time and know that your taller then most people at the place and use it to your advantage. Height is straight up peacocking as it is and this means that your body posture is magnified when people look at you. What I do with my height is I always take up space never try to look smaller then your height suggests. This means move your arms around, keep a wider stance and footing when sitting/standing. If theres a stool around in a group of people grab it and lean back and spread out haha this is what I do and it usually looks pretty alpha and people will talk in to you instead of you leaning over. I always neg girls on being short even if there not that short and just speak louder and if you really have to lean in to listen back out when you speak and when you do lean in kino the girl put a hand on her back or shoulders like she is supporting your leaning lol this will make it look less forced to the girl and to others it will look less needy. Invoking the leader or men is also super easy with height just take charge and be comfortable. |

I usually look for somewhere to sit or if there is nowhere peck whilst opening then once you can get the effort down to about 90% from her 10% from you. You can also just stay straight upright, in clubs this is genius as the girls will almost stretch up to talk to you, which usually gets her tits rubbing against you (which can't be a bad thing as far as kino goes). oh just remembered something else if possible if you HAVE to peck (5'4 hb 6'6 PUA) don't peck straight, I'm not sure why but I always feel it portrays a needy vibe. Instead peck at about a 10 o'clock angle and only a little, kinda like if you are at a bar and your buddy next to you asks you something. Not sure why this feels better than straight but its worth trying. |

Also, make sure you are consciously aware of the way you walk. It seems to me a lot of tall people have, what my friends like to term, a "gumpy walk". Its hard to explain, but I think its where you walk more on the balls of your feet. Its very goofy and a lot of tall people do it. |

I had to break the habit of bending over as I go through doors (I live in a cottage over the holidays), pain in the ass because I know after hitting my head all christmas I will have to fix it again. I think a lot of tall guys do this though, bed slightly to stop from hitting their head on things even if they wouldn't hit it anyway. |

I agree that you should be aware of how you are walking, but at the same time don't be to conscious of it or people will notice it and it really doesn't look good. Because then you start to look self conscious and insecure and that is something than will hurt you big time when you are tall. Because the taller you are the more noticeable you are.As far as the "gumpy walk" you won't happen to wobble some or walk as if you have a injured your foot or something? |

i'm 6'4" and do a lot of heavy lifting with my back at work, so my spine has this kind of built in pec to it. my opinion on the pec, is fuck it, i kind of have to. since our heads are higher up from the ground than most people, we have to angle it lower than they do to see the ground. so that's why tall people have more of a pec. i'd rather have the built in pec, than be all upright, and be tripping over shit that i didn't see, or tripping over small people. then again you could keep your head up, but your eyes down, but that's just lame. i say roll with it, go ahead and pec. fuck em. |

Im 6'6 and i pretty much have to peck to be able to hear conversations. The thing is when picking up women even if you do have to peck you can peck while using good body position to initiate kino early. Its a great thing to be tall so dont see it in any way as a negative, your get noticed twice as much and most women see it as very attractive. Another thing you can do to avoid pecking, is use the bar. Stand and work close to the bar and lean back a lot and or do a elbow lean this lowers you slightly to their level and you dont appear to be leaning in to hear the conversation. I usually end up staying close to the bar because i need to lean on it to look relatively sober... lol |

Oh i see what you mean now jaybot thanks. One thing i heard Brad P talk about in an interview (apparantly he's tall) is that being tall is either a blessing or a curse. If you are tall you MUST have good posture or else people will easily notice. Make the girls peck to you. Jaybot has the right idea. High value people, tall or not, aren't going to peck all the time just so they can hear other people. |

Well I'm 5'0" and even with 4" stilettos on I'm fucking short. My advice to you is that if I like a guy I meet in a bar enough (and I'm drunk and have no inhibitions) I will wrap my arms around his neck and pull his head closer to mine so I can hear him and I think most shortttt girls do this because they're used to everyone being massively fucking tall. Also whenever I'm sitting on the pool table or in bar stools I'm automatically taller (so sad) so it's much easier for guys to approach me while I'm sitting down, and I do it a lot because 4" stilettos are murder...so approach girls while they're sitting down on tall things...not so much in booths, obviously, and if she really likes you she will make you her height. |

I never had a short girl do this to me. Tho I barely go to bars/clubs anyway so that would certainly lower my chances of this happening. Either way the chances of me approaching a girl that was under 5'5" are pretty slim anyway.

I'm 1.98m (6'5"?) and I try not to peck but stand straight up. But in the end i'm always asking what did you say? cuz i can't hear them. So I always try to lean into something with my back or ill try to sit down. But what if you stand straight up, youll have to look down to make eyecontact, doesn't that seem low value for other girls? |
