    4' 10 1/2". I really didn't want to relate to all of these, but I really do. Damnit. Except the Snookie thing. Never the Snookie thing.

    46: People think it's hilarious when they lose you in shops because your head can't be seen over the shelving.

    Love this article

    At my height, 5ft 2, I felt even more 'shortie' & tiny.

    I always wanna be sexy...so It will always just meant 'cute' to tall guys :ohwell:

    I'm 5'4" and a LOT of these describe me. I've short legs and a longer torso. Can't reach the crap on the top shelf, so it's kitchen chairs to the rescue. Can't keep up with male friends or the husband (5'11") when walking, so I end up jogging half the time.

    I was the tallest kid in my class until 7th grade, then everyone shot up around me and I stayed the same :laugh:

    I'm 4'11" (rounded up slightly) and I HATE giving women hugs! They always have to bend down or my face is plastered in their boobs. It's turned me into a side hugger.

    Oh yeah, forgot to mention that. Not a fan. The best word that describes crap like that is "drivel".

    I'm 5'5" and I can relate to some of these. Concerts are the worst! You have to be 6' to see anything and I always get the "tall guy" in front of me. And I can't reach the top shelf of my cupboards either. That's what husbands are for. :)

    All of these! :laugh:
    34. If you know an 11-year-old, his favorite party trick is making you stand up to show people that he’s taller than you are.

    But, this one, there's my nephew right there! :grumble:

    All true! #17 is my favorite. I do this all the time. #24 so true too.

    5'0 but I'm ok with it!

    (Ohhh, my oldest son is 6'4" hugging him is awkward.)

    17. When you’re sitting, your feet don’t always reach the floor, and you don’t care how childlike you look swinging your legs.

    LOL I do this !

    and yes I have experienced and can relate to every single thing on this list!

    5'2" here and yes, I can totally relate. When my niece was not quite a teen she was almost as tall as me and yes, she liked to play the "Look! I'm ten and almost as tall as you" game :grumble: And it never ever fails that when I have a good seat at a play or a concert someone tall with Sideshow Bob hair always sits in front of me!

    Oh, and when I go to a bar I have to have my husband push my seat close to the counter because my feet doing reach the floor.:blushing:

    15. …because you’re “easy to throw around.” Hmm. -- I actually don' t mind this one although I prefer the term "spinner"

    Wow, I found my kinfolks. :)
    I'm 4'10.75"

    -the top cupboards of the kitchen (not to mention the storage space on top of the cupboards) may as well be rented out since you will never ever ever use them. <-- I renovated my kitchen to just base cabinets: no more uppers. I have a gorgeous wall of 5 bright windows where upper cabinets would go. Why pay for something that I won't use?

    ...- Do NOT pat me on the head, mother$%^&er!!! <--Like!

    - (my trick) Throwing my jacket over the seat in front of me (pretending somebody is saving it) at the movies because, inevitably, a 6'6" man will sit directly in front of me every.single.time making it impossible for me to see the screen. <-- I'm going to do this from now on.

    thanks for this, I love it being 5'2" I can relate to almost this entire list.
    my 3 favorite are probably the "feet don't touch the floor thing" when sitting on something (even toilets sometimes!), "mentally preparing to sit on a bar stool" (and get off for that matter), and "not being able to see the hood of your car while driving".
    (I actually don't like sitting close to the steering wheel though and reach with my foot, my 5'6" husband has to move the seat closer!

    I love the fact you included the .75" that's awesome.

    I agree 100%. To be a little un is both a privilege and a curse. Having to go on my highest tip toes at the bar (while wearing ridiculously painful heels) often leaves me feeling a tad foolish. Especially when doing so, causes me to get id'd 100 % of the time!! But I'd never change.
