I'm 6 foot 6. Sometimes I wish I was just an inch or two shorter so finding clothes was easier, but it's great for basketball.

Anyone taller?

I'm 5'4, so slightly above average oh wait I guess I'm exactly average. I think for a while there I was above average, I got pretty tall when middle school started and stopped growing. :(

6'6 is really tall though, Eon. I think Skull Kid and Frost are around 6'3.

As of a physical a few months ago, I hit 6' 2.75".

I have terrible posture and bad knees. Being tall and a geek are probably both to blame, at least for the former.

I don't know precise figures but I'm kinda short for my age. Like, there's a good number of people three or four years my younger who are a good 10cm taller.

Having a history of shortness on my mother's side would probably explain this.

I'm 6'1", and quite happy with my height. My wife is too...as she doesn't need to step on something to reach high things anymore!

I'm 5'6" on a good day, and I'm not too unhappy with that. I'm the tallest in my family by a good half inch and most of my friends are relatively short. I know this one girl who's 4'9" and I just love that I tower over her because she hates it. I do wish I could be taller, however. One of my closest friends is 6'6.5" and he's just massive. Also, there are plenty of girls at my school who are just a tad taller than me, and then they wear big heels and loom over me. I get freaked out when girls are taller because I'm a large fellow and like to compensate by hanging around small females. Taller ones just make me uneasy...

I am not too tall or too short, well, I'm a little bit too tall I guess at a whopping 6.1 (based on last measurement & I keep growing still...) & I really wish I was shorter since I don't really like too much about being tall but as positive counters to me not liking it is that throughout school there was always a different person every year who was at least .2 inches taller then me which made me feel more like a normal person which I am not in any way known to man & the other is that my mother always asks me to get things she can't reach when I'm around which is just great...Oh, & I was the tallest person in my household since I outgrew my sister years & years ago & she is kind of tall too...can't wait til I hit 25 cause I will know my permenant height then...

5' 8". I am satisfied; no complaints.

I wouldn't have a problem dating a girl shorter or talller than me. Taller would be a bit more interesting, though...

I'm like a 5'5 or a 5'7. I hope when I grow up, I'll be something like a 6'5 :)

I wouldn't really have a choice in the matter. :(

Actually, dating a tall girl would be kinda cool. Unless people thought you were her younger brother.

Last time I got it measured I was 1.71m, which equates to around 5'7". Probably the shortest here that's stopped growing. all my sisters' friends are taller than me, *tear.* It would be cool to be 6', I can't see a disadvantage at all at that height. As a kid I'd the thing that got to me the most was me being the shortest in class... every year up until about year 10 when I became the 3rd shortest. I've always thought if I was taller I'd be more confident and more outgoing, which I guess (for me) is somewhat true because I don't have a lot of tall friends. Now though I'm OK with my height - but OK I admit that sometimes I spike my hair up just to get the extra inch :O

Definitely genetic because I'm taller than my dad by 10cm and taller than my mum by 20cm... grr give me dodge genes grrr

Im way shorter than is average for my age. I hate it. Im basically seen a a freak by people, and they say things to me at work all the time. Being short also makes my job difficult, becaue I sometimes am expected to get things off shelves/lift things. Im currently trying to get them to switch me to a position where i wont have to do these things, but it isnt going well. It sucks to not beable tp reach things,especially if no one is there to help. It also sucks to be teased about lack of height. The worst problem for me though is clothes, its basically me VS Clothing. I really hope my height wont define me and be my identity for the rest of my life. Id give anything to be at least a foot taller.

I'm actually 5'10" but with the way I slouch and bend my knees when standing I look 5'8". Still I like my height. Finding clothes is a bitch because I'm skinny as ****. I'm right at 110 lbs.

I'm 6'0", so I guess I'm pretty short here. My spine curves kind of weirdly, so I don't usually 'stand tall.'

That's almost 6' (feet) 2" (inches) (74 inches). We're exactly the same height.
