Well... I've never been tall (i'm only 5'3/5'4'-ish) so I can't really say that I like being tall.

...BUT

I would certainly like to be taller because being short sucks. I have to hem half of my jeans and lots of mini skirts aren't mini skirts when I wear them. And being short = having short legs. Hmm... what else. Oh yeah, people always assume you're younger than what you really are because of your height. Which sucks also, because I hate being branded as a freshman all the time when I'm not.

I'm 15 and I'm 5'7. I love being tall! I want just one more inch... But I think I've stopped growing. :( 5'7 is quite tall for an Asian girl but I still feel so so short...

But one thing about being tall is that it's hard to find tall guys!

OMG ROXANNE! OMG! I'm 5'0 too as well! w00t *high fives* lol Well, I think the perfect height for me is 5'3 lol.

I wish I was like maybe 3 inches taller... cause that's the height that clothes are often measure for.

Yay! *high five* and I would actually be able to reach your hand. lol.

Short people rule!

You're right about the clothes tho. Especially jeans and capris! Capris are so cute but its so hard for me to find some that are the right length!

Actually, how would you know if your short? There's like hundreds of people who might be shorter than you, and there's like hundreds more that are taller too. wink.gif So, how do we know?

tall and short is relative...

it doesn't matter. i find that the tall people want to be shorter and the short people want to be taller. people are never happy.

phatty
i'm 5'3 or 5'4. i wanna be SHORT! so i can wear high heels n not tower over ppl!
annchovie
man..to the tall people that want to be short..ILL TAKE YOUR SPOT! it sucks always being on the edge, the front row, or having to sit down/kneel in pictures! and you cant see things, peoples elbows jab you in the head, and it takes a while to find jeans that fit! plus, people make fun of you SO MUCH. i rarely see others making fun of tall people. its not nearly close enough to how often short people are made fun of..plus the stupid nicknames, shorty, midget, sleepy, dopey, sneezy, doc..all the snow white crew >.< and the embaressment of being mistakened for a younger grade/age. i hope i grow more wacko.gif

I have no trouble being short, but doesn't mean I like it.
Sure it sucks having to go on your tippee toes to see what's up over the crowd. But that only happens in concerts.
Plus, my friends are pretty tall and they dont seem to bother me about my height. ( or the lack of it )

Thats nothing. I'm 5'3 and I'm 12 too. I don't really care much except my friends who are short attack me when they're bored.
