first of all,sorry if this question has been asked before 

I am 178cm , pretty tall for Asian girl, I used to be swimmer, thats why I am the tallest in my family I guess .. My dad is about 174cm , my mum is about 155cm.

I used to be self conscious when I first started transitioning , I rarely wear high heels because of my height .. but now I am very happy with my height .. whenever I go to China town, I feel like I am the tallest Asian girl & I am fine with it LOL (sometimes I pretend that I'm a model when I go shopping, when others look at me because of being Asian girl & pretty tall .. lol)



so how tall are you ? (MTF , FTM or any genders feel free to share your opinions, thanks!) do you have any problem with your height ?

I'm always the tallest girl in the room at 6'2".  I don't ever wear heels.

For the Americans who don't know metric -- 178cm is 5'10".  I had to look up the conversion 

I'm 5'8" (152cm...I had to look that up too), which is borderline short for American men and borderline tall for women.  I'm pretty happy with my height now.  I can get away with medium heels and still blend in easily.

Also 6'2"... murg... gets me a lot of stares.

(or 188 cm for anyone who's not from 'Merica.)

6'3"/190cm...me is a tall chick! Doesn't get me as many stares as I thought it would, quite a few tall cis women in Sydney, which helps me seem not too freaky tall.

I was a flat 6', but I've lost almost an inch since starting HRT due to posture changes and musculature shrinkage.  Still too tall for heels really

ah thanks Katie ! yes I am 5'10" 

same height as Tyra Banks


5'8" is 172cm not 152cm Katie ...


and Carrie & Jill .. Maria Sharapova is also 188cm tall !   

Kaylee, oh thats cool & dont worry , I am pretty tall as well , I sometimes wear heels when I go out, people stare at me but I dont care

haha .. nice Ms.Grace ! do you wear high-heels sometimes, supermodel ?

6'1 and a half

5'8" ~ 173cms which better meets your description. 152 cms would even be very small for a woman... 

Since, I'm here, I'm just under 183cms which means I'm about  6'....

Stupid metric system!  Yes, it makes sense.  Yes, it's all based on 10's.  Blah, blah, blah.  I'm an American and we don't do metric.

Exactly the same here.  I'm slightly shorter than most guys.

you are awesome ! 

@Kimberley hi-5 ! 

180cm, seems worse when I see it in metric.

My ID says I am 183 cm (6'), but it is too old measuring. Before I started HRT, I was 181 cm (5'11,3"), today I measured my height again and I was nicely surprised, that I was 179,5 cm (5'10,6")

    I was 6'3" when I started I know I have lost some but I wear heels all of the time and I rarely see anyone eye to eye it sure is nice when I do though! If you are tall you have got to look good because everyone is looking, to bad , I am just tall 

5'6, or 167 cm. I'm short, but eh. I'm so used to being my height that I can't imagine being shorter or taller. I used to wear crazy heels when I was young though.

170cm and 60 kg. I wear heels whenever. I have a close friend who is well over 6' 4" and wears massive heels, about 6' 10" in them or taller, I cannot see her face not a worry to her!

6' 1", with bad knees and ankles. I have a tendency to do what was in the OP's clip (spontaneous face plant).    No heels for me unless they are boots.

I tend to bounce between roughly 5'7 1/2 - 5'8.  Last time I was at the doctor's office, I was 5'8 on the money.
