    I'm 5' 10" and I love it! I wouldn't trade my long legs for anything.

    NO! I am only 5' and sometimes it can be really annoying because you look bigger when you are shorter! it can be frustrating!

    I'm 5' 4.5" and I like it just fine. I have friends who are shorter and friends who are taller. I think my height suits me. The strange thing is that I know people who measure exactly my height, but I look taller than they do.

    Absolutely! I'm 5'10", tall for my area, but I rock the heels anyway because it makes me happy. I always wanted to be 6' but I'm okay with where I'm at.

    I'm 5'9 and felt too tall when I was younger, but now I love it

    Exact same answer. :)
  • I'm 5'8 & love heels. Sometimes I feel too tall with high heels. However.. I'd rather have my height than be short. Just sayin.

    What's with the 5'2' or shorter people hating their height!! I love being short. As I find most men love it also. I seemed to fit perfectly into my ex-boyfriends arms and I all I dated was 6 feet and over.

    I am a 5' tall female and I often wish I was taller. I am a short person in a world of tall people. I have to have step stools all over the house to get things from top shelves. My husband (he is 6'4") has to change all the light bulbs or I have to lug a ladder into the house (step stool not tall enough). When I fly I have to stand on the seat to get stuff in and out of the overhead bins. I have to hem up practically every pair of pants I buy, even the petites are too long, and because I am a size 0 - 2 I can never find any pants that fit me anyway.

    Eh, not really. I am 5'2". I would like to be a couple inches taller, BUT, silver lining, I am glad I am not shorter. I am just the shortest person in my family other than my mom's mother. My two siblings, who are younger than me are taller than I am. x_x I got the "short" end of the stick....

    I'm 5'2". I poke fun at my own height sometimes, but I don't hate it. Being short makes it more visually obvious when I'm losing weight. :drinker: :bigsmile:
    yeah but when you gain weight its more obvious too, so i guess being tall is good for gaining weight and being short is good for losing weight :P

    Im 5'8, lost 21lbs and have yet to go down a pant size.:grumble:

    When you add those three inches, I'll switch you from pass to smash.

    I don't mind my height, but I would like it a lot more if I was between 6'2-6'4 :)
