Well, I don't think you're going to find an answer. Why is a person's IQ what it is? Why do some people get diseases while others don't? Why do I have brown hair while you have red? Genetics, environment, and roll of the dice. The point is, you can't change it, you had no control over it, and if you're not concerned about your father being your father, move on with your life. Be happy being you; you're the only you out there.
Height depends on a variety of factors including genetics, proper nutrition, adequate sleep, exercise, hormone levels, and overall health. Smoking is linked to stunted growth in adolescents and teens.
It appears many peoples questions are making you laugh tonight. I understand my height is what it is and can't be changed, I am not inquiring about this at all. I am generally content being 5'9.
I am basically just trying get a better understanding of why I am the way I am . Perhaps other people can relate or perhaps there is common explanation or insight for this sort of thing, other than "Genetics are an odd master."
I do find it odd that going back 3 generations nearly all of my family members that contributed dna to me were taller than I.
I'm sorry, but this post makes me laugh. You said you know your father is your father, and you're a grown adult, so your height is going to be your height forever. There's no changing being "short-changed". I want to be 5'9" and weigh 120 pounds, but that's not the body I was given. I know a woman who is 6' tall and her parents are both very short. My brothers are both over 6' tall and my mom is only 5'2" and my dad was only 5'8". I doubt very much that your BK whoppers had anything to do with your height, and for as bad as smoking is for your health, I doubt it altered your height much at all, if any. I guess, I'm questioning your problem. If it's not your paternity, what is the issue? I'm not trying to be rude, just understand.
which there is nothing wrong with!! tall men are very sexy in my book
no nothing is wrong with you!! just like a baby that has blue eyes an either one of his parents have blue eyes. its always someone in your family or maybe the environment you grew up in
