> The average height of Indian men has significantly declined by 1.10 cm [95% CI, -1.31 to -.099 cm, p-0.00], between the NFHS-III and IV (S1 Table, Fig 4). The decline in average height was observed across religious group, caste or tribe, and residence, wealth Index (S2, S5, S6 and S8 Tables).Source: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0255676This is political because despite tax free agriculture, subsidized food, and free food for children, indians are becoming shorter. Women are also shortened in this paper. The paper doesn't attribute it to genetics.I suspect arranged marriages are to blame. It breaks the pre-requisites for HW equilibrium (e.g. random mating criteria). HW equilibrium prevents speciation.TL;DR I think indians are becoming another hominid species.

>>525795350I didn't write the paper. My opinion is HW equilibrium has been broken in India Endogamy due to arranged marriages created genetic isolation and non random mating
Weird I heard when jeets go swimming in any body of water in their country they come out an inch taller

>>525795153couldn't that be that the ones with height advantage leaves the religious group, caste, or tribe?
>>525795153Good thing they have fresh American, Canadian, and European women to bump up our heights
