    6'1" bare feet... 6'5" in my heels.

    ^A Goddess, I bow down to you. Tall is awesome!

    I am 6' 2". I felt tall until my mid 20's or so. The generation just behind mine seems to be taller on average. These days 6' to 6' 4" is not all that special for a man.

    As far as families go. My brother and I are the same height and tower over all other family members on both sides. We look like our father, but he is 5' 8" at best.

    6'0" woman - I always hated being tall when I was younger, but have gotten use to it I guess. To this day pants and shoes are the worst for me ( tall people have bigger feet, size 12 1/2 or 13). I love tall men though, my husband is 6'4". :smile:

    Thanks OP.

    The disabilities and unfair treatment of us tall folk have gone on WAY too long,

    I, for one, am sick and tired of being asked to reach something for people that can't reach it themselves.

    Glad there are other people who feel the same way.

    6'2" Checking in.

    But, but but.....I just need that cup....the one up there!!

    This cup?

    I'm 6'4" and my 17 year old son is just about to pass me up... (eye to eye right now!)

    But, honestly, I love being tall. My wife is 5'10" and she was captain of her HS basketball team....

    You might think that our kids would be giants, but so far only one of our 6 kids (4 boys and 2 girls) has outgrown us (the 17 year old).... The oldest is 19 and the youngest is 1.

    Embrace the sky!! Tall people rule!!

    Im with ya there, im 6'5 and my wife is 5'8.5 and the kids dont seem to be measuring up in height, but then again they say height comes from the mother's side of the family.

    I'm a good 5" taller than all the women in my family on my mom's side. Most of the men are short too. My dad's family are the tall ones.

    Yeah, but how tall was the mailman?

    LOL!

    Don't count on it! I'm 5' 9.5" with a 36" inseam and no one on my mother's side of the family is tall - just the opposite, they are all either really short, short, or average.

    Ahahaha, I'm weirdly attracted to shorter men. I remember learning in a soc class that women are the taller partner in something like 1 in every 100 relationships.

    Oh you SOOOO did not say that!

    When i was in high school... I tried passing "Sandra's law"... whereby if you were a male 6'0" or taller, you were not allowed to date anyone under 5'10".

    Yea that never passed, and the only guy who wasn't scared sh**less of me was 5'8".

    *sigh*
