    6'0 exactly. How many times have you heard...

    "How tall are you?"
    "Did you play basketball?"
    "Are you wearing heels?"
    "Did you grow since last time I saw you?" (Love this one, I am 27 years old and haven't grown since I was 12. I usually respond, no you must be shrinking!)
    "Your husband must be tall."
    Ect, Ect, Ect

    I used to be offended and now I just think it is funny!

    Yeah...especially the basketball one. I even had my Art teacher in HS, who was the girls basketball coach beg me to try out because she said the whole team was a "bunch of shorties."

    This may be one of the very few places I feel short....with the exception of hanging with my brothers that are 6'4", 6'5" and 6'6"...I am 5'9"...I never realized I was tall until I got into the bar scene....put on some heels and it was hard to find guys taller than me....

    I'm 5'11 and a bit. My twin brother is 6'3. Been this height since about 13. Used to get called 'skinny malinky long legs big bannana feet' at school but it didn't really bother me. My best friend is 5'3 so we do look like little and large. My hubby is just over 6' fortunately. I wear heals most days and am proud to be tall, its handy at concerts, lol.

    6ft in my bare feet. Always been tall, been this height since about 14 or 15 years old. My husband is a shortie but our son who is 4 is nearly 4ft tall so think we have another growbag dweller in the family. I am also very large framed, althetic when slim with big boobs. triple whammy.

    Wow. You could have written this description about me, with the exception of the short husband (mine's 6'3) and the son (no children). The rest is pretty dead on. I too, am 6' without shoes, large-framed and when I was slim I was athletic with huge boobs. Now, I'm still tall, large-framed, huge boobs, minus the slim, athletic build. Working on getting that part back.

    5'10" now, I was tall in primary school, then average height throughout secondary school. Between the ages of 17 and 19 I had a growth spurt of about 5 inches.

    I'm exactly 6'. I've also been this height since high school. Neither one of my parents are exceptional tall. My poor brother is only 5' 8". Growing up, people always thought I was his older sister and I'm 5 years younger.

    I am 5'8" (still above average :smile: )

    I am 6'0 tall on the dot.

    I was just measured at the doctor. The nurse (a shortie) had to stand on a chair. Oy vey.

    I'm 6'4 and I ABSOLUTELY love it! I honestly wish I was 2 inches taller. Yes... you read that right. I wish I was 6'6. Been this height since I was 13 and my boyfriend is 6'3 1/2 (if he stands up straight!) :happy:
