How tall are you?

[Champ]

Poll question: How tall are you?

I'm 5'10

[Dookus]

1. 6' even

n/t

[Spider Jerusalem]

2. 6'

[VOX]

3. 6' 5", and that's enough for me.

Not good for missing low-hanging door jambs, or for trying to buy clothes off the rack, or for having leg-room in midsize cars.

But good in crowds (can see over most people), or for reaching top shelves, or for looking at the tops of people's heads (not a lot of call for that last one, though).

:kick:

[Mr Bojangles]

5. Same here.

[Hepburn]

That's a beautiful thing.

[HEIL PRESIDENT GOD]

47. I always say

at least we have a chance at "normal" children. ;)

[merh]

53. When my brother, who is 6' 9", dated a girl that was 5', we used to

tease him that he was "nuts over her".... That made him so angry!

:crazy:


I was 5'2.75", but with age, I think I am now 5'2".

[Kolesar]

10. I'm 5'6" and I cannot buy clothes off the rack, either

You weren't really looking for sympathy, were you?

[Scooter24]

4. 5'10"

I wish I was taller. A nice 6'1" would be great. :P

[Birthmark]

And I resent being lumped in with those 5'8" shrimps!

[Wat_Tyler]

19. Far too tall. The reasonable height to be is 6'

Any taller than that is just weird.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

13. 5'3"

I'm one of those folks who always needs help reaching something in the grocery store.

[tigereye]

[HEIL PRESIDENT GOD]

My dream is to start a National Advocacy for the Tall and Very Tall. We would get NBA spokesmen, sue airlines and automakers for discrimination.

[Endangered Specie]

43. hahaha...

And I want to sue all sorts of companies for them not selling left handed versions of their products. NAALP..The National Association for the Advancement of Left-Handed People ;)

[maveric]

[JohnKleeb]

[yardwork]

30. Our graph is the expected bell curve!

I think I see an outlier though.

[Gothic Sponge]

31. 6'5"

[DelawareValleyDem]

32. 5' 7"

[Chovexani]

34. I'm 5'10" too

School is hell for tall girls. :(

[Pithlet]

39. Yeah, but you'll love it

as you get older. It's easier to carry a little bit of weight when the metabolism starts to slow, and clothes, when you can get them to fit, look better IMO. I'm 32 and 5'9. I hated being tall growing up, but I really like it now.

[Chovexani]

45. I'm 23 now and it's gotten better

Growing up, I had my growth spurs way before the other kids did and used to get tortured for it. My metabolism is about the same though so I still look like a pencil. :( My main problem when clothes shopping is pants: I end up with high waters (er, sorry, "capris") that fit around the waist, or if they're long enough they're so baggy even a rapper wouldn't wear them. Old Navy jeans seem to be the only kind that fit me properly.

On the bright side, my boyfriend is an inch or two shorter than me, and he's the first guy I've dated that was shorter than me and likes it that way. He's all like, "I love my Amazon queen!" :D

[Pithlet]

54. I have the same problem with pants

I'm leggy, which makes shopping for pants difficult. I loved Limited jeans, but the store near me doesn't carry them anymore.

[happyasaclam]

63. yep

I have no problem at all with you being tall.

[MadHound]

36. A tall one, 6'5"

And I'm the second shortest male in my family. I have cousins who are 7' plus. My grandmother was over 6', worked as a butcher and was handy with the meat cleaver.

Most of the time it's OK, but buying clothes sucks. Very little off the rack for me.

[bigwillq]

37. 5'3

Yup, I'm a shorty. Never really bothered me. I'm just vertically challenged. I think you can get disability for that!

[Endangered Specie]

40. 6 foot flat.

[GCP]

41. Total shrimp unfortunately

They say the best things come in little packages - I'd kill for a few more inches in height, especially at concerts.

[WindRavenX]

42. 4'11''

Yay for short people!!!

[St. Jarvitude]

44. Alright, who lied about being > 7'3"

Or if you weren't lying... post about it gosh-darnit!!

We're all curious.

[TSIAS]

46. 6'0 1/2"

n/t

[flamingyouth]

48. 5'7"

[jus_the_facts]

49. 5'1''

:)

[Character Assassin]

50. 6' fucking 3" and a Broncos fan TIL THE DAY I DIE

Never'll be a Bronco, though.

FUCK. I'd go drinking, if I drank.

[hyphenate]

51. Harlan Ellison

said that anyone over 5'5" is weird and abnormal. I once told that to an actor friend of mine who is only about 5'4" and he loved it, considering his co-star on the show was over 6' tall.

[Chovexani]

52. That would explain a lot in my case.

:crazy:

[Zero Division]

55. 5'7" - could be worse for a guy, but still I'd love to be about 5'10"

At least I join the company of guys like John Stewart, who also happens to be 5'7".

[happyasaclam]

56. Likewise

I'm around 5'8" and wish I was a couple of inches taller.

[greatauntoftriplets]

57. 5' 10"

and female. The triplets' mother is 6 feet tall.

[shingashong]

58. 5'9" Mr. Shingashong is 6'3". Shing Jr is gonna be TALL!!! n/t

[miss_kitty]

59. I am A Very Tall 5'2"

When I say that I mean people are surprized to hear I am 'only' 5'2" i think because my legs are long or I carry myself tall.

Or it's those 3" 'fuck me' pumps I wear....:evilgrin:

[samplegirl]

60. Im 5'1

Always hated being short...thank goodness for boots with high heels.

[Jean Louise Finch]

61. You're not short...

You're efficient.

And you're taller than me by 1".

[samplegirl]

65. Hope i dont shrink to much

I dont think they have the shoes my grandmother use to wear.
LOL

[gospelized]

62. 5'4"

i think the government should regulate height. anything more than 5'5" and you should be cut off at the knees.

i hear it's what the japanese do.

[scarlet_owl]

64. 5'6" exactly.

[UrbScotty]

66. 6' 2"

I think Kerry's a little taller than me.

[jpgray]

67. Who knows where this guy stands? (without boots)

[Reciprocity]

68. You know for someone 5ft 1in and a 1/2 .

5ft 4 in is tall.
