How tall are you?

[Ginobilly]

How tall are you and are you happy at your current height?

I'm 5'11 and a half. I wish I was 6'6 :depressed

[Ballcox]

Well, I'm 6'7 and I'm finding that as I get older, being tall isn't quite as great as it used to be. When you're young and tall, people think you're older, so that was great for buying alcohol in high school, height also gives you an advantage in certain sports, for me it was basketball. But, as I get older, you begin to find out that having that height puts a lot of stress on your back, knees, ankles, etc. So, it's still ok, but I could do without all the physical pain, that part sucks!

respect the 'fro :fro

[CosmicCowboy]

6'5"...still like it but ditto on the stress on knees, ankles, feet etc.

celebrex is my friend....

[JoeChalupa]

5'7" - Never really bothered me.

[tlongII]

6'1". I wish I was at least 6'9" to support my power forward style game and give me a shot at the NBA.

[TheWriter]

6'0 without shoes, 6'1 1/2 - 6'2 with shoes.

[bigzak25]

[Manu20]

5'6". I would like to be taller but I'm still 18 maybe I will grow some more.

[iminlakerland]

5'2 and i wish i was 5'5 or 5'6

[MannyIsGod]

5'10.5" and I wish I had a few more inches.

[bigzak25]

too easy....

[JoeChalupa]

I've got plenty of inches...just not much height.

[tsb2000]

I'm 6'4". I'll echo what Ballcox and Cosmic said. My size 14 feet, knees, and ankles wake up begging for painkillers and anti-inflammitories most of the time.

[ALVAREZ6]

5'7" , but I'm not done growing...a lot of you already know I'm 15.

[Shelly]

5' 3"

I stunted my growth when I started smoking at an early age :(

[Jekka]

I'm about an inch and a half too short to sit in the front seat of a car legally, but I like being short. I've never had to date a guy that's shorter and worry about wearing heels around him or anything like that. The only thing that sucks is having to ask people to reach things for you, like when people put kitchen appliances up too high without thinking (thanks, Manny).

[davi78239]

5'7''. It's alright, but I wish I was at least 5'9''.

[timvp]

6'0 without shoes, 6'1 1/2 - 6'2 with shoes.

High heels?

Good for you Jekka!

Women have it easier than guys when it comes to height. Women are seen as cute when they're short but guys are seen ugly, runts,etc. If your not 5'8/5'9(average height for men in US) you aint getting laid or a date unless your French, Tom Cruise, Ron Jeremy, or have a lot of size and girth in your wallet. Most girls nowdays are "Height Queens" :lol :lol

[Ginobilly]

High heels?

I know, most shoes will only add about 1.25 inches of height on average.

[Flea]

5'7 but I always wanted to be a couple of inches taller.

[Duff McCartney]

5'9.

I always wanted to be 6'5 at least.

[Ginobilly]

5'7" - Never really bothered me.

5'7, that's like 6'7 in mexican height. :lmao :lmao I'm Mexican at 5'11, that's almost like 7'0 feet to us Mexicans. :lol

[Shelly]

I always wanted to be at least 5'7" or taller. But honestly, I don't feel short at all so it never really bothered me.

I like tall guys, but then again, everyone is taller than me. Hubby is 6'2".

[Jimcs50]

6 ft

6'4" in heels

[2Blonde]

I'm 5'4"
I always wanted to be taller so I could reach the top shelf just once, but one of my sisters who is about 5'7" said she always wished she was small like me. So I guess it just it depends which side of the fence you're on.

...2Blonde

[NameDropper]

5'11", but rumor has it I'm only 5'8".

[ALVAREZ6]

5'7, that's like 6'7 in mexican height. :lmao :lmao I'm Mexican at 5'11, that's almost like 7'0 feet to us Mexicans. :lol

Does the same thing go for me? I'm Argentinean.

Not only that but I'm 15.

[ALVAREZ6]

If your not 5'8/5'9(average height for men in US) you aint getting laid or a date unless your French, Tom Cruise, Ron Jeremy, or have a lot of size and girth in your wallet. Most girls nowdays are "Height Queens" :lol :lol
What if you make up for it in the weight room?

[Ginobilly]

Does the same thing go for me? I'm Argentinean.

Not only that but I'm 15.

No, I think ya'lls average height is the same as Americans. But we Mexicans are known for our shortness.

[Ginobilly]

I've worked at HEB as a checker and found out most people exaggerate an average of 2 inches on their height when looking at their DL. :lol So in San Antonio, if your 5'8 your 5'10 here. :lmao

[desflood]

I'm 5'4". Don't mind being short, but it's damned hard to reach stuff. That's why I married a 6'4" man.

[timvp]

6'1 as for mexican height, it's awesome being the one if the tallest guys in churchand sometimes HEB

[ShoogarBear]

Damn, lot of big oafs around here.

I'm 5'9", but ten years ago I was 5'10".

So all you big guys complaining about how it gets tougher as you get older, you get shorter as you get older too, so no worries.

:)

[MannyIsGod]

Can't you give the man his sixth foot, Kori?

[ShoogarBear]

Why, so he can break more flip-flops?

[timvp]

Can't you give the man his sixth foot, Kori?

That's what I'm talking about. She asked how tall I was and when I said six-foot, she brought out the measuring tape and had me stand against the wall without shoes. It wasn't fair. I blame the carpet.

:depressed




P.S.

My NBA height is 6'2".

I don't mind my being short, to compensate there are a pair of tongs in each drawer in my kitchen. :lol

^^^ then I'm 6'05" too.

I never had any problems with my height until I stumbled upon one of those ideal weight tables. It was then that I realized I was at least a foot too short! :(

I didn't lose any height, but my feet got wider and a half size larger. What's up with that?

[travis2]

I didn't lose any height, but my feet got wider and a half size larger. What's up with that?

Hmmmm...I know what they say about men with larger feet...but I strongly suspect that making a similar hypothesis about women would result in my death by some slow, painful method...so I will not so hypothesize.

Sorry, can't help you. :angel

[desflood]

That's actually normal! It happens to lots of women. I went from shoe size 6 1/2 regular to 7 EXTRA WIDE. Finding shoes is impossible now.

[GoldToe]

5'9" in socks.

[Shelly]

That's actually normal! It happens to lots of women. I went from shoe size 6 1/2 regular to 7 EXTRA WIDE. Finding shoes is impossible now.

I know! It's the weirdest thing! I could go pick out a size 7 shoe and buy them without trying them on. Now I am a 7-1/2, but sometimes have to buy an 8 because they'll fit better in the width, but be a little too long.

Kids...they fuck up your body! :lol

[desflood]

I used to work in OB/GYN, they explained it to me once... there's a specific hormone (can't recall which one) that makes your ligaments looser, stretch more easily to prepare for birth. That's also why you're more likely to sprain an ankle or wrist while pregnant.

[Shelly]

Interesting!

[CosmicCowboy]

hmmm...looser, huh?...I don't think I will touch that one...:lol

:lmao He's actually Hispanic, which makes his height a rarity!

Actually Hispanic height varies alot depending on what country or region your from.

Like Cubans are known for being tall and so are Argentinians.(Manu anyone)
The Basque people of Spain are known for being Tall and big bastards.(My grandfather was basque) But since most of us Hispanics are Mexicanos in the US, we are stuck with the short sterotype for the next 50 years. :lol

I already said I was 5'11 but I'm 6'3 with my "Jew Fro" :hat

I bust it out when I date those tall 5'9 + blonde girls from the north side. :lmao :baby

How is than Tony Parker 1,88m--> 6"2

[CosmicCowboy]

Dang...most of you guys are too short to date my daughter...she's 5'9" and won't date anyone shorter than she is...I would personally prefer her to further restrict her criteria to include having motivation and a job but I guess you gotta start somewhere...:lol

:eyebrows my husband is 1 inch shorter than me and I'm 5'2 ... :smokin guess I'm a very lucky woman :makeout

[Ginobilly]

How is than Tony Parker 1,88m--> 6"2

Tony is not 6'2, I have met him in person and have also met Manu. Tony is about 6'1 the most and Manu is only about 6'4 1/2 or 3/4. The NBA teams are known to add one or 2 inches to thier players height. Like Barkley, He was only 6'4 but they listed him at 6'6 or 6'8 sometimes.WTF! :wtf Even we Mexicans don't add that much height in our Drivers L. I also heard that Vince Carter is only 6'4 that his reported 6'6.

These basketball players are greedy, adding height, they're already tall! We Mexicans have a reason to add height. :lol We would give our left huevo to be 6'4.<--------the height no shooting guard wants to be in the NBA. :lmao :lmao

[travis2]

How is than Tony Parker 1,88m--> 6"2

1" = 2.54 cm

1.84 - 1.88 m = 4 cm

4 cm is *approximately* 1.5 inches.

therefore 1.88m = 6' 0.5" + 1.5" = 6'2".

[SLOVENIAN 8]

http://www.nba.com/playerfile/tony_parker/index.html?nav=page

6"2 :lol

[Slomo]

1" = 2.54 cm

1.84 - 1.88 m = 4 cm

4 cm is *approximately* 1.5 inches.

therefore 1.88m = 6' 0.5" + 1.5" = 6'2". In that case Duff *aproximately* slept with as many women as warren Beatty :lol

Not all of us. The tallest guy I've ever dated was 6'5", and I dated a guy that's 6'4" for a while, and for someone who's as short as I am that's just awkward. At some point, there is such a thing as too much height.

[Bandit2981]

Ohhhhh daaaaaaamn...you didn't just go there...:flipoff :lol

Besides, I was judging by eye level...not like I can see over my own hair, regardless of length...:lol

I didn't lose any height, but my feet got wider and a half size larger. What's up with that?


Thank God that didn't happen to me. My shoe size is a 9. Had it changed with each kid I would be a size 11!!!!

I didn't lose any height either.

It affected mine because I carried my kids waaaay out front and the weight ended up curving my spine more--if I could straighten it out to normal I'd still be 5'5". As it is it just makes my ass stick out even more. :depressed :lol

Sure, it'd be nice to be taller, but I'd much rather be smarter. Another 10 or 20 points on the IQ would do me a lot more good than growing a few inches taller.

Studies have come out now that show women are more attracted to taller men instinctively, not consciously... taller men give the impression of better health and of being better providers. You're trying to fight caveman genetics!

Yeah, I heard about that, that's why you rarely see couples were the women is taller than the guy. Is that why Mouse remains unmarried?
