    Basketball is my hobby so I wish I was a little taller. I'm 6'0" but could use another 2-3 inches

    I wouldn't mind being a few inches shorter. I don't mind being 5'10" but when I wear heels I feel like a giant... I wish I was 5'7"
    exactly how I feel, I'm 5'10" too and I can't find any guys taller than me lol

    I'm in between 5'5" and 5'6" & I'm fine with it. Not too short, not too tall. My sister is 5'11", and she looks great. Long legs, thin frame... Sometimes I think that would be nice (esp the thin frame :), but she has had issues with finding the right jeans or for example, we are going to be in a wedding together this July. It was harder for her while dress shopping b/c she could only look at the styles that were made with extra length. We ended up doing more of a mid-calf look, so that worked out, but we all fell in love with these 4" red heels that will look great to accent our black dresses, but she is a little worried about being so much taller than the groomsmen she is walking with. I think it will be fine though. They will both look great & that's all that matters!

    i think i'm the shortest person here... =( 4'3.
    even a couple more inches would be extremely helpful.

    5'3" and it would be really lovely to be able to reach the top shelf at the supermarket without having to ask the tall man at the end of the isle

    Sometimes. I'm 6 feet tall and I always think it'd be a little easier being a little short. 5'8 or 5'9 would be great.

    I'm 5'9" and I have been since the 7th grade. I have loved being tall my whole life... until recently it seems. The past two guys I've dated were slightly shorter than me, and although I didn't notice, they seemed to. Now I'm paranoid of how much bigger it makes me seem in comparison and I get uncomfortable, and I've started to notice it around my smaller female friends. It's hard not to compare yourself to a beautiful, short, petite young lady.

    im 4'10" and really want to be shorter. I would like to be around 4'0"-4'2"

    i REALLY like being short.

    And WHY do you want to be that short?! lol. Trust me, it is super inconvenient.
    And i do love short people but i wouldn't wish my height on anybody...

    I'm 5'10.5 and although I do like being tall, I do wish I could be shorter sometimes because I've always been the same height as my boyfriends. There are advantages to this but it would be nice to be shorter than my boyfriend now. We're exactly the same height, which means that I've typically weighed more than them too. I can also tell that although my boyfriend really loves me that he wouldn't mind if I was shorter or if he was taller either. I think he might prefer the later of the two though.

    I don't know but I think being the same height or taller than most guys (or at least the guys I hang around) makes them treat me more of an equal too. Then again, that might just be my attitude since I'm not the girly type - I'm more of the laid back, one-of-the-guys type.

    Also, I can't wear heels. They look good on me but I'm definitely a jolly green giant with them on. And I asked my boyfriend what he thought and I eventually got him to admit that he'd prefer me not wear them.

    6ft and would happily give several inches to someone else! I've never been comfortable with my height.

    At 6'0, and still being the shortest of 3 brothers, I like my height.

    I'm 5'4", sometimes I wish I was shorter because even at this height I find myself in situations where I feel taller than everyone else..

    Pros
    Imo, this height is just right, not too tall not too short
    I don't like standing out, so I can blend in easily :B

    Cons
    Regular length jeans are usually too long and drag on the floor...I'd rather be shorter than taller

    I am a 5'3" man, and I'd like to be anything taller; even 5'4" would be really neat.

    You have one inch on me; I'll take it. Can I have it, please?

    I'm ok with my height but I would like to have a bionic eye that shoots a laser.

    *edit* That shoots a laser when I want it to. Not at all times-- that would be ridiculous.

    i always wanted to be taller b/c i played basketball. but this was always tempered with feeling like an awkward giant around my friends who were shorter, so perhaps its good that i wasn't taller.

    I am 6'1".

    I love my height, really I do... so if I had a wish, it would be that more companies would cater to women with a 37" inseam and a size 12 shoe.

    I really don't care about being taller, I'm used to being tiny (5'0). But I do wish my legs were a proportionate length to the rest of me; I have to hem all my jeans because if they fit in the butt, they'll be way too long in the leg. :/ Good thing I sew.
