Calling all shorties!!

delaney056

What is your favorite thing about being short? I'm 4'11, and I wouldn't change it for anything! I love being able to wear heels and not be freakishly tall, I can fit into small spaces, I can duck faster, I can get up faster when I fall, I NEVER have to worry about hitting my head on the ceiling, I get a better view of ants, it's easier to play hide and seek, people think I'm younger than I really am, AND I feel the rain after everyone else does!
Woo hoo!!

You can reach things on the lower shelves for us tall folks that's ok. I'll get the top shelf for you if you ask.

I can walk around the weight lifting area of gym and not have my head hit any of the hanging equipment(Like for lat pulls etc.). My Hubby is 6ft 1 and has to duck.

Barbellerella

Well thats a happy way to look at it

bigcity_tinydreams

I'm 5'2"

and I love that you can see so much more of the world around you and make funny observations. I'll see things and laugh that my taller friends didn't observe simply because it was out of their line of sight!

Haha Good! I always make a fool of myself trying to reach something that's obviously too high for me, but that's when I get to bat my lashes at some good looking store employee and use my little person "charm" on him. Win.

I actually used to get super offended when people would make fun of me for being short. Now I embrace it, because it's just a part of who I am. I could always take hormones to get taller, but seriously, who wants to do that?

If you're short, you're usually automatically marked as "cute" and that has come in handy in terms of being persuasive : ) I'm 5'1 !

I'm 5'1. People think it's cute so I don't mind it too much.

I think we're usually "persuasive" because most of us have big personalities to make up for our small stature!

~ I used to feel the same way until I became an adult & finally learned to accept my height as something I couldn't change. That made me happier in the grand scheme of things! Btw, I'm also 4' 11. :-)

That's true! I may be small, but I have a huge personality...and a temper to match!

jroja021

LOL My favorite was being able to see ants better

I'm 5' 3'' not THAT short, but my in laws call me leprechaun...

I love not being so tall in heels and most men being taller then me.

MireyGal76

Hmmm... I'm freakishly tall, and I think the best thing you shorties have going for you is that you always steal my tall guys!

C'mon now *weeping*. Save some tall man loving for us too!

I'd love to feel petite, protected, enveloped by my man... In lieu of that... I'll keep boxing!

Now, I'd love to have longer legs.

I'm 4'10" and since I can fit into "girls" size clothing, my clothes/shoes are cheaper

I agree 5'2" here and another thing is you can tell really fast when you lose just a few lbs

HAHA- my daughter is about 5ft- she says "I'm not short, I'm FUN SIZE". Glad she embraced it early.

I'm 5'2 and I love that I can move in and out of crowds a lot easier than a tall person can! I also love that I will NEVER be to tall to wear high heels!!!
