Huh?
great apes in general don't have as much sexual dimorphism as other animals. But generally, sticking to birds here since op's pic is birds, a large breed of chicken will have large roosters and large hens. Sexual dimorphism doesn't have any bearing on what sort of like… ideal femininity scrotes decide is. Picrel. Plus in raptor species, the females are larger than the males by like 1/3rd.

The development of sexually dimorphic traits is the result of hormones and sex chromosomes, not diet. Also your idea of what a woman should look like is kind of pornbrained, obvs no one should be fat but tall and hunky women are fine.

>i feel like in an ideal world, all the women would be tiny and the men would be muscley and bear like.
Unfortunately it seems that in real life an overwhelming supermajority of men instinctively prefer taller women over shorter women, and have to be socially conditioned out of this preference by a wave of formative sexual rejections from taller and generally older women during puberty.

This intense social and sexual pressure from undeveloped and genetically disqualified males then causes tall women to develop an intense self loathing that ties directly into this cycle of bad sexual attention from obviously inadequate males. The LC thread on her told me that Belle Delphine is at minimum 5'9" in real life. I don't know if that's true, maybe she really is the claimed 5'6" and every other woman or e-celebrity photographed near to her massively overstate their own heights. It would explain a lot.

However, we can see that refusal to engage in this ritual has left Gen Z men (and will leave Gen Alpha males) unable to overcome or repress their instinctive giantess fetish. I expect that as AI generated and augmented media continues to advance we will find the average female height in male-targeted media will exceed human possibility at which point simple male gene line extinction might finally work this issue out.

idk my brother is a lot taller than me. people should just go for increased sexual dimorphism as opposed to fixed traits

>>112777
also, lifestyle also plays a role in sexual dimorphism. if a male is stunted height wise due to nutritional deficiencies, it may seem he is not genetically sexually dimorphic, when in reality, its due to environment.
of course i dont actually think sexual dimorphism should be forcibly imposed on humans in some shame-humiliation ritual. what do you think i am, a moid?

Whole lotta words to say "I'm too tall for guys to want me" geg

>i feel like in an ideal world, all the women would be tiny and the men would be muscley and bear like. it's just hawt, i dunno.

I know it's not a popular opinion around here but, I feel the exact same.

I feel like humans are, in practice, a lot more sexually dimorphic than what our naked biological forms show because we typically deliberately make ourselves even more masculine/femenine with choice of clothing, hairstyle, conscious choice of behaviour and voice tone, etc. There's even makeup, choice of gym activity (weights vs cardio) and stuff like that too.

I think we haven't physically become like peacocks or gorillas with even more pronounced default sexually dimorphic physical forms because intelligence and making and using inventions has just been too strong of a sexual strategy over the millennia.

it’s advantageous for males and females of the same species to consume similar resources because that way they can share them. obv there’s gonna be a lot of animals that go against that, but for mammals and birds and such it’s generally true just because of their mating strategies

This is the weirdest nonsense I have ever read. Men have always preferred shorter women.

When men say that they mean 1 to 2 inches shorter than themselves. They do not care that this sounds like they want someone shorter compared with other women.

>Men who are taller than 6’0” generally prefer women of about 5’8” to 5’11”, while shorter men in the range of 5’8” to 5’11” tend to prefer women in the same height bracket.
Very, very few women are above 5'7". And yet somehow that 1.5% of the population of women by height receive numerically as many swipes as women whose height matches 30% of the population, meaning that being significantly above average provides 20x the attention.

Obviously there's more to life than dating apps. And that means more spaces in which tall women have a serious advantage. Tall women can reasonably expect to get away with murders for which shorter women would be convicted:

A common theory is that there was less selective pressure for women. When women were pregnant it was up to the man to wait at a watering hole, hurl a javelin and chase down injured game over 15 miles in the hot sun, so the survival of their child depended more on the man's performance. Evolutionary psychology seems to be a point of contention among feminists, but I see the logic in this.

However at the olympics men are only about 10% faster in the 100m and the marathon while 40% stronger in weightlifting. Strength seems to be more significant, while the extra power and range using weapons is useful in hunting, there might have been selective pressure due to tribal warfare or perhaps controlling women and social dominance. There are certainly some grim elements of human nature, on the internet the edgiest theories will float to the top, though I'd like to know the truth. I'd rank all this as speculation.

I feel like it's also neurological to a degree, even if you have the raw physical speed and strength, you still need the right brain to pilot the 'ole flesh golem around in a way that is able to outdo prey that has evolved to avoid you, figure out the best way to be lethal to enemy tribes, etc.

Just look at how much men sperg over combat in videogames and its strategy and details. They're hardwired to desire to become efficient hunters and murderers.

I don't think it's a bad thing, specialization is useful, but it might be overlooked if you only look at speed/strength performance.

>>112823
Oh, nevermind. I thought you meant women taller than them or 6ft and above.
But I also think that men don't really know what 5'11 women look like since it's so rare.
