Last year, I posted this picture that one of my male friends took for me in the street at night.



My  height is just 183 cm (6 feet), but the 2-dimensional camera eye made me look extraordinary tall.

I just measured myself, and weirdly enough, I seem shorter than I was before, it seems when I lost weight I lost height as strange as that seems.

So, I measured 69 inches the other day, which is a bit crazy, that is what like 5'9" (or something like 175cm) when I was about 70 lbs heavier I was a full 72 inches. I still have to investigate, but several measurements kept leading to the same results, that is I shrunk lol, not that I am complaining.

[AmySmiles]

6'1", tall like a model rawr.

[Kairi]

Too tall... I don't even want to know myself and I haven't measured for years because of it. Most likely over the 6' marker if not shorter.

6'  165lbs curvacious.....................I would attach the pic but it is quite revealing

[Kelly J. P.]

   Lucky duck lol, i'm 5'9 so im kinda up there in the clouds 

[Lisbeth]

5'9". In Minnesota that's not too tall. One fourth of the cis-women are taller than I am.

[Sunnynight]

6'1"

I used to lament about my height so much, but it doesn't bother me at all anymore. There's two other girls in my class the same height, and I routinely see other tall women. It's kind of fun to be in the tall club actually. We all know the shared hatred for low countertops.

Being tall is not an automatic ticket on the won't pass bus, which is what I used to think before I actually started going out in public and realizing that most people do not really give a damn how tall you are. Except maybe children, who live in wonder of a time when they won't be short, and who sometimes harmlessly exclaim "That lady is tall!"

[JenniL]

5' 8" Its an alright height. I still run into girls taller than me at work still.

[Sage]

5'3" and I HATE IT!     I'm so jealous of tall people it's like I feel myself turning green...

I've always hated how short I am, because my idiot little brother is 6'3".  SO not fair.

But I'm androgyne and chiming in on this, so don't mind me.   

I was so worried about going out dressed up as a guy because I'm short even for a girl!  What if someone laughs at me...or worse, what if I don't pass because I'm too short to be 'male'?  *walks away to go hide under a rock*   

[~RoadToTrista~]

Don't worry so much. There's this one kid from my school, he's really short, but he's really awesome.

Saying awesome feels weird, like it's outdated or something......

I passed as male, and I'm 5'3.5", so... I'm inclined to say people don't judge male/female on height; it's mostly just the visage and attire. Being taller, of course, helps, but the difference is small. And the difference can be further minimized by attitude - my mom is only 4'6", but she walks tall. She doesn't seem short until you're standing right beside her. I like to think that I'm the same way.

... Though, I wouldn't mind two and a half more inches. 

Oh, and anyone laughing at you for being short is weird. Some people will tease you, if they know you (not many people are like this... I've been teased about my height by high school kids perhaps by two different people in total), but strangers mostly keep to themselves. There are, of course, occasional douchebags, but they should never really matter. I was called a "Very beautiful guy" once, by one such person as I would call a douchebag. He yelled it from across the street. But I passed to most everyone else... though I did get a stare or two... so I didn't mind. I happened to be in a rush, and didn't have makeup on for that day, so that's probably why that happened. The Adam's apple didn't help either 

That example is great, though, for saying you don't need to be over 5'6" to pass as male.

Thanks for saying that, I think I'll feel a bit better going out now, remembering what you've said.   

Not to be off-topic for a moment, but I say 'awesome' all the time, but I'm kind of old fashioned.  I've been called an old person in a young person's body, so...  I still say things like adj.: 'Cool,' 'rad,' 'neat-o,' 'bangin',' 'kickass,' 'shiny' (used synonymously with the aforementioned, something a bit more contemporary, I suppose).  v.: 'that rocks,' the state of being 'stoked'... Et cetera.     Not to worry.

That's a relief to think about, actually.     I am certainly good at 'walking tall,' something that A-type personalities around me seem to despise.

Now that you guys have been awesome and shared your advice with me, I will apply this new knowledge and feel better when going out; thanks so much.

I hate me sometimes. I'm terrible with sarcasm; I just take things too literally. But if you're being straightfoward, I'm glad to have offered some relief. 

... If not, I'll try harder next time.

Hey, Sage is always straightforward and means what he says.    You certainly were helpful.

I don't do sarcasm well, anyway; in order for it to work I have to overexaggerate it to the extreme, and then it stops being funny for lack of subtlety.   

[Kelly J. P.]

I'm very glad to hear that. For some reason I'm being bipolar and weepy this evening... which may account for why I may seem defensive, or slightly paranoid. Which is a contrast to this morning's blissful ecstasy. I was so happy I was jumping up and down. It's probably nothing to worry about though... just a small case of jealousy bringing my mood down a little.

I have to wonder how you get over those green-faced feelings...

[Sage]

I wish you were feeling better, mood swings seriously suck.     They're enough to drive a person bonkers, that's for sure!   

I respond to my jealous-green feeling by yelling to my brother, "YOU!  I COMMAND YOU TO BE SHORTER THAN ME THIS INSTANT!"  and since he knows I'm kidding around, he'll slouch to where he's like four feet tall and looks like a frog, and then I say, "Very well, carry on with your business, then," and he waddles away and does his own thing for awhile.   

It makes me feel better for a little while.  That and I decided to marry someone who is a 5'6" tall Irish boy.  I think he's cute, he's so short compared to most other dudes I know.     We've actually been told that we make a cute couple simply because we're both short.   

But yeah....it's the little things that make me feel less little...if that makes any sense at all.   

[Kelly J. P.]

Hmmm.

Well, I would be a spoiled sport if I told everyone to stop being so pretty. Especially if I added "this instant." :3

I'm fine. In fact, I'm much better already, aside from the headache I'm getting. Instead of feeling green, I'll just be glad for the luckier ones.

By the way, that part about slouching and looking like a frog and waddling away was super-adorable.
