Genes vs Height Correlation

[EasternEurope]

Hi! I was wondering how large of an effect genes and your haplogroups have on you being tall or not. Most of the tallest people come from the Dinaric Alps and the Netherlands at roughly 185cm give or take. I haven't done a DNA test so most of my guesses are pure speculation unfortunately. Personally from what I know, my family has stayed in Bulgaria for centuries and most likely isn't from the Alps or the Netherlands especially and the average height in Bulgarian males is around 175cm. I am personally 184.5 barefoot so something doesn't add up. What does being tall consist of mainly? Genes or foods or something else? Thanks. :thumb001:

Bump

[Rethel]

None.

[EasternEurope]

None.

Any reason why there isn't? I mean I'm pretty new to all of this and from what I've seen, people who are tall (Europeans) generally come from ex-Yugo countries and particularly the Dinaric Alps as well as Scandinavia: The two regions that have the highest concentration of the I haplogroup. On the other hand, regions that have little to none of it (Spain, Portugal) record very short average male heights.

Any reason why there isn't?

Any reason why there should be?
If in such population also women are higher,
does it mean, that they have I-Y-hg???

It is one of many leftpedic myths.
If it would be true, then Old Europe would be the highest region in ancient world.
But wans't.
At the time when I-men dominated the non-eastern Europe, the
highest folk were Indoeuropeans who lived in eastern Europe.
All were R1. according to the myth, should be shorter than OE I-men.
But the reality was quite opposite.

And the hight from the regions you mentioned is high today.
Yet 100 years ago these regions were not so high, especially Holland.

Btw, are you I-man?

Thanks for the detailed reply! I guess that makes sense.. So I guess it is just a coincidence then. As for my DNA results, I haven't done a test yet, unfortunately. All I know is that my family is almost 100% from Bulgaria (from what I now) and how I'm generally around 5-10cm taller than the average Bulgarian so I was just wondering. I really have no idea what I am and curiosity is getting to me haha. :/

[Rethel]

what is your height rethel?

180

Yes it is true, backed up by published scientific research.

I thought you said you were 182 once before? You're getting shorter.

This is my height:

Me and Dick are equally tall, but we also belong to the troo Caucasoid IJ haplo :laugh:

Then there's no explanation (that I know of/could find) as to why my height is what it is. I haven't done a DNA test so there's no way to find out, but does this possibly mean that I'm dominated by the I2a/b haplogroup? Not really sure what to think of this but thanks for that neat graph! :thumb001:

aye gotta have that 180+ :thumb001:

[Pahli]

aye gotta hve that 180+ :thumb001:

And I'm not even European.

Alright, I'll give that a read, thanks.

[Rethel]

I thought you said you were 182 once before?

It depneds on measurment. 180-182.
Usually 180 and this hight I have in the ID.

[Lucas]

185 r1a:)

[Peterski]

This is my height:

Hey you have exactly the same height as me!:

It must be due to your R1ethelian admixture. :)

[Peterski]

Everyone is about 2 centimeters taller in the morning than in the evening.

So you can say, that you are 180 in the evening and 182 in the morning.

[Dick]

It must be due to your I-man admixture :)

Rethel made sense to you? You must be high as fuck right now.

[EasternEurope]

Rethel made sense to you? You must be high as fuck right now.

I'm just new to this stuff, so I mean I'm extra open to various theories LOL. When I get more educated on this shit I'll obviously make proper arguments and replies.

[Сербо Макеридов]

I am tall 190cm.

[Rethel]

Rethel made sense to you? You must be high as fuck right now.

Did you at least read what I had written? :confused:
