Spinoff : How tall are you? Are you happy with your height?

[Praying Colonel]

I'm 6-0. I wish I were taller, because I have shorter legs in comparison to my torso. If my legs were properly proportioned to my torso I'd be about 6-3.

It’s like deja vu all over again...

I said 5'6 in that thread, thanks to gravity so am sticking to that answer. Back in the day I was just hitting 5'8.

4'11" -- love it. I'm cute this size, and my weight is appropriate for my short stature. My husband says I'm fun-sized.

Of course, this comes with a few negatives: I have to hem everything, and I'm constantly dragging over a stool to reach the second shelf.

I'm somewhere around 5'3". I remember when I was in college (back in the mid-late 90's) I was 5'4". A few years ago one of my kids had a school project where they had to measure everyone in the family and he said I was 5'2"....

But I like being short, for the most part. I feel "cute."

I'm 5'6" tall and am very happy with it.

I'm about 6'4 and I like it because of the attention I get, but I also don't like it because I would love to wear heels but I don't need to be taller and risk hitting my head on door frames, ceiling fans, etc.

I am a 5' 4.5" lady. I was tiny as a kid and the pediatrician told my mom I wouldn't be 5' so I was pleased to prove him wrong though wouldn't mind being taller. My mom was a smoker and I was only 5.5 pounds at full term birth. So maybe that's why I was a tiny tot.

My twin DDs are almost 5'9". And they wish they were even taller.

I was the same way. I was always one of the tallest kids until middle school, when I stopped growing and everyone else kept growing.

I was always one of the shortest in my class in elementary school and I stopped growing by the end of 6th grade.

4'11" -- love it. I'm cute this size, and my weight is appropriate for my short stature. My husband says I'm fun-sized.

I wish my weight was appropriate for my height. But I feel ya on the negatives. We keep step stools in the house and I still sometimes have to climb on the kitchen counters to reach the top shelves. And hemming is a pain when you can't sew worth a darn.
Luckily, I can usually find pants to mostly fit by buying those that are ankle length instead of full length.

Im 5'9. I'd still be happy even if I were a few inches taller.
