Height doesn't make or break a man. Treat everyone equally and strive to inspire people. "Life is too short to worry about being too short." - Bob the Baker

I'm 6'1'', very lean swimmer's body (around 15% bodyfat).
My gfs have all been 5'10'' or taller, B cups, thigh gap, no more than 115lbs.

I don't consider myself alpha or beta. Just superman. :)

 

There is no minimum height to be a man who is successful and whose company is desirable. Asking questions like this is a strong disqualifier thought.

The fact that you are worried and asking others for their opinion on height disqualifies you from being an Alpha male.

You can be 6'5 and still be a beta male. Alphas make themselves bigger and give themselves presence – it comes from body language, vocals, how they carry themselves.

For example and you don't have to like him but Putin is 5'6 has Alpha male traits.......other examples include Tom Cruise, Floyd Maywhether.

Lets even go further Frank Sinatra 5'8, Gene Kelly 5'7, Dean Martin 5'10

As long as I am doing better then I am feeling and I do it to prove them wrong.
 

putin is so fucking alpha that he even got a pigeon to salute him, yes he is a bad person but still this is next level

compare putin to justin trudeau, trudeau literally sits like a female, it is horrifying. EDIT: i meant do point out putin is short af and alpha and trudeau is tall and feminine https://ipolitics.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/09924528.jpg</a" alt="here" />

 

maybe Putin is just another one of many short dudes with a Napoleon complex which is why he feels the need to constantly show he is "alpha" by being authoritarian, disrespecting women, etc.?

6'0'' at least. Empirical evidence suggests chicks have a psychological attraction to height.

Cheer up, Bateman. What's the matter? No shiatsu this morning?
 

Asking this question puts you about 50 points in the hole to start.

Good advice in comments above. Stop thinking like this. Not going to worry yourself into being the guy you wish you were.
