Isnt it overlooked how hard it is being tall? With questions like "do you play basketball?" Or trying to find pants that are long enough wo going to specialty places. Or just having to duck into elvators or doorways.


The one advantage tho is...if you're a dude and losing it on top....just make sure you dont sit down lol.

Tall Ppl represent!

    You wear those things? Just go with a kilt. Inseam doesn't matter that way.

    Actually...I love getting asked if I play basketball, because then I get to brag. XD You have to lose a lot more weight for it to be noticeable than a shortie would. *shrugs* But I wouldn't change being tall for the world. LOVE it. :)

    6'4 - I love being tall but I know I am going to have plenty of aches and pains as I get older.

    Just answer the basketball question with, 'Oh you are 5'1, you must live under a bridge.' Just kidding

    Hubby is 6'5"
    I'm "only" 5'8"
    Everything from buying clothes to a car requires different considerations than the "average" height person.
    I hear ya'!

    I feel like a shorty here at 5'9"! Sad to say, most of the guys at my high school (at least 75%) were shorter than me, even during senior year.

    I'm 5'10" and all legs and buying pants is the absolute worst.

    I'm also the shortest person on my dad's side of the family. My dad is 6'7", grandpa is 6'5", uncle is 6'4", brother is 6'3". Even my girl cousin is 6'2" and my aunt is 6'3". It's unfair! Stupid 5'6" mom and her shorty short short genes.

    I had a girlfriend in college who was (well she still is) 6'6". People would ask if she played basketball (which she did) and she'd answer with "No, golf."
