    Why do so many of you women want to be shorter--help me understand that please?

    Because usually the taller you are, the "bigger" you seem.

    I was once asked if I had been born a man because, I presume, I am tall and had on high heeled boots. People are all sorts if f-ed up.

    5'6"... I feel like an amazon next to my 4'11" daughter and my 5' mom. Although if I were taller, say 5'9" my butt would look smaller, right? Right???

    Lots of people tend to be dumb. Be glad that they sort themselves out of your way all by themselves :)

    What should be considered by people (just my 2 cents worth) are beauty of heart, mind, soul, and humor. Height shouldn't be a factor.

    Is it certain people who are messed-up or is it society? I think the earlier and it is unfortunate that some people treat tall women badly--perhaps it's due to their "small" minds :\

    6'5" and fine with it with three exceptions:

    1. People looking up my nose
    2. Other people with umbrellas in crowds
    3. Low beams and light fittings.

    I am 5"1' (and a half) and I love it most of the time - I hate that the visor on my car doesn't work at all, and being short is a pain at concerts! I prefer tall guys too!

    Yeah, I was pretty amused when I saw that because I remember saying the same thing the first time I looked at a BMI chart! :)

    Just a bit under 5'8". I do wish I was taller; I am one of the shortest males in my entire extended family. :'(

    I'm 5'9"... Unless I wear boots, then 5'11" (try finding a taller line dancing partner!), and if I'm wearing heels, then I'm over 6'. There are pros and cons... I have long legs, though they are curvy with muscle. I like long legs ;) Although it is hard to find a guy who is tall enough even when I wear my heels...

    I'm 4'11'' and sometimes wish I was a bit taller. I'm fairly happy with my height except when I have to ask people to reach items on higher shelves at the grocery store.

    I'm 5'6". Sometimes I wish to be taller, or shorter, or SOMETHING other than average, but what can you do?

    I'm 5'9ft and I love it. It was kind of annoying when I was single because I was usually taller than most guys but my boyfriend is 6'2ft so I'm happy! :)

    I'm 5' 10''. I wish I had a hoverboard because then it wouldn't matter how tall I was. Oh, that basketball goal is too high? Bam...hoverboard.
