Last time I got measured by a doctor I was 5'5.  When I measured myself the other day I got 5'4.  I have really bad posture.  I think I could gain a couple inches of I streched and improved my posture.  I really hate being short.

Another 5'3" here.
I'm fairly alright with it. A bit bummed though, because my mom's 5'5" and my dad's about 5'10" so I though I'd be a wee bit taller.

Also, having to get every new pair of pants hemmed can get irritating  ::)

5'6". Seems to be pretty common around here. When I first started transition, I bought lift shoes that made me 2 inches taller. It was a hell of a rush, but for those who have never worn them, it's basically like wearing a pair of high heels. Hence, pain in the back, legs, feet, etc. Just knowing they're available is good, though.

That said, I've never had any issues with my height. I live in Colorado, where there is a large Hispanic population, so in many places I go I tend to actually be TALLER than most other guys. It's pretty sweet.

5'6". Wish I had another few inches, but I'm grateful for what I have.
This is pretty much where I'm at too.
Every day brings me one step closer to being myself.

Gotta love it.  Seriously, take up salsa dancing.  I'm taller than probably 80% of the guys there.  :)
Oh I'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love

I think I'm the shortest out of everyone... I'm about 4'10. It sucks to be a short guy.

Try to be confident, man, and being short dont mean a thing.

5' 3" here, and it does bother me quite a bit.
Not much I can do about it though, so I tend to joke about it when around taller guys to kind of "get in first" before they can say anything.
I'm comfortable with my height, I just wish I was a little taller.

My Fiance' is quite a bit taller than me, at least 3" I'd say. At our upcoming wedding I have made sure she will be wearing flat shoes, and I'll be wearing special lift shoes. I want our wedding waltz to look right, and our photographs.
That's the only time it's really bothered me to do anything about it, though. And it's only going to be for one day.

I'll try.  I'm worried girls won't date me b/c I'm so short. I'm sure girls want a guy who's taller than them... right?

there's not a whole lot of hope for any of us. when polled, 80% of straight women are "attracted" to guys that are over 6 feet tall.

Every girl I've dated since transition has been taller than me.

It's certainly not impossible... and as chicks get older, they realize that things like aren't really that crucial when it comes to being with someone.

I'm 5'6 and never really pay attention to people's height, unless they're extremely tall or extremely short. I have a very tall family on both my mom and dad's side. Except for my paternal grandparents, they were short. Besides them, I am the only one who can really be classified as short (male or female height). My mom is 5'10, my dad is 6'1, and my brother is 6'5. It's amusing that I don't fit
