    HA! I totally get the "you have to be taller than 5'8" (which i know isn't as tall as lots of the people in here) from guys who are shorter than 5'8

    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.

    Well that explains my kids! I'm 5'9", hubby is 5'10"....our 7 year old son is already 4'4" and our 4 year old daughter is 3'7". The women on Hubby's side are all about 5'3", but on my side, most are around 5'7".

    As far as finding pants, it sucks because I'm RIGHT between regular and talls. Talls are too long (unless I wear heels) and regulars are JUST this side of being too short (but are okay with gym shoes)....

    6'5 here, if only it were easier to find good clothes.

    What brands are people wearing? This seems to be a question I'm forever asking :/

    Anything that is not H&M

    5'7" living in an ethnic group where most girls are 5'2"-5'5" and the men are 5'7"-5'1"". Let's just say seeing anyone over 6'1" is like seeing a unicorn.

    I tower over all my female friends in photos, and they make my waist look giant.

    My 2" heels make me feel 6" tall & I was once asked "why am I so tall."

    Short guys like me... But dudes who are 5'6" or under just feel like hobbitseses to me. I feel like "the man" standingbaround them even if I'm in a dress.

    I have to hunch my back & tilt my head down to hear them talk to me in bars. (Not a good posture look for me & I'm sure the very act mortifies them).

    I LOVE being near anyone 6'1" or taller, I get to feel like a little lady for once.

    there's this guy who sells tall girl tank tops... I'm loving some of his sayings... (www.royleejames.com)

    this is one of my favs:

    he also has sayings like:
    I'm not tall, I'm standing on an invisible stool
    I used to be short, but I grew out of it

    Personally, I love being 6'1, and rocking out 3.5" heels.
    :heart:
