| I am quite short at 5'5 but i can say that it has its advantages! Advantage: I am very agile and can mostly squeeze through lots of spaces xD Disadvantage: naturally my arms and legs are shorter as well do it makes sports much more challenging Dx How about you? Whats your height and how does it go to your advantage/disadvantage? |
| ~ Romansu, watashiha baka desu ka? ~ |
| I am tall Advantage: Good at sports.(basketball...) |
 |
| I'm 5'3" (at least that was the last time I was measured which was.... I really don't know, a while ago) so I'm also pretty short. Advantages: I can get in and out of any car I want with ease, including the incredibly-cramped Saleen S7. Disadvantages: I'm short. |
| Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit. |
| I'm pretty short for a guy here at 175cm. The obvious disadvantage is that (almost) everyone looks down on me. It doesn't exactly make me popular with the other sex either. On the bright side, I live in an apartment with only 2m ceiling height, so if I were taller that would be problematic. |

| 5"11 here, so i guess average or above average? Advantages: i can reach the top shelf no problem. Disadvantages: Occationally i smack my head on the light, tree branches, pots and pans in my kitchen. I'd have to think the best advantage of being short is looking up skirts. |

I feel above average in height and never feel like I'm being looked down on unless shaq is in the room. Blaming your height for problems with the opposite sex is stupid too. |

| I am tall. About 6'3 Advantages: Obvious things like extended reach and girls like tall guys. Disadvantages: People ask you to reach things for them, getting used to a tall body hurts like hell during your teens, and sometimes you're too tall for certain desks and end up hurting your neck. |

| I'm 5'10 which is pretty tall where I'm from. advantage: Perfect size~ disadvantage: I said perfect! :< |

| 6' 2'' (188 cm) I'd say mostly advantages than disadvantages. The only disadvantage I can think of is if the ceiling is too small, but that hasn't occurred much. Also, I'm used to looking down on people (not figuratively), but in rare occasions I run into someone taller me, and it feels weird looking up to someone. Hmm, looked at my driver's license and it says I'm 6-00 haha, but my friend claims he's 5' 11" (and that what is written in his license), and I'm at least 3-4 inches taller than him. I didn't grow since I got my license either, so somewhere a mistake was made. |

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet |
| Nice OP we are both the same height (5'5'') and male, but I don't know how old you are (I'm 23). Well I'd say my height has mostly disatvantages. The biggest one being finding a mate, most chicks I've met so far all say they need I guy at least a few inches taller than them, I've seen quite a few women my height and taller sadly.. not saying my height makes it impossible, but it defintely makes it much harder for me to find a romantic partner than say the average 5'10'' + dude here in the states. Especially at my college, I felt like the average female height was closer to 5'7'' than the national average (5'4'')... Other random disatvantages include: Never being able to see anything when I'm part of a large crowd of people, not being able to reach stuff that I want, and I also get randomly picked on by people about my height (well now not nearly as much as I was in high school admittedly, its still annoying when adults say it jokingly I can get upset if people just bring up my shortness out of nowhere and keep trying to get on my nerves about it). Atvantages hmmm... Well I guess I can fit in tight spaces more easily. And its never hard for me to find clothes in my size, its always the smallest adult size for a male or one size above it, so when I look for clothing its almost never out of my size range in any clothing store I go to (unless its a big and tall store I suppose). |

| I'm or should be 180 cms if not a bit more than that. Yet for some weird reason machines measure me less than that (I say this because my big brother is 185 if not a bit more, and the difference between him and me is marginal at best). So I can say I'm within the tall standarts. I mean from where I am, my height is leagues above the average. And I can compete sort of with the average heights of taller places. Being tall has its advantages, you have more independence. I've never felt any excesive weight or slowdown. Disadvantages? That's something I've never considered tbh. Perhaps the fact it makes my build normal to bulky, when I'd like to be slimmer? |
 |
| I'm 5'11, and I suppose the biggest advantage to that is the fact that I never get fat. No disadvantages. Tall person master race. |

| Im only 5'7 , it kinda sucks :( |
| Advantages of being tall. Women like tall guys. Disadvantages: Everyone asks if you play basketball. This is partly due to my ethnicity. |
| The concept of short vs. tall is weird. How can you label someone as short or tall? Shorter or taller, sure. A guy that's 5'5" next to a guy that's 5'11" is shorter. A guy that's 6'1" next to the 5'11" guy is considered taller. But stand all three next to each other. Does 5'5" guy call 5'11" guy tall or does he call 6'1" guy tall? 5'11" guy is shorter than 6'1" guy so should 5'5" guy be able to call 5'11" guy short? Does 6'1" guy call 5'11" guy short when obviously there's a 5'5" guy right next to him that's clearly shorter? What happens when 6'1" guy meets 6'7" guy? Who's the shorty, then? It just makes more sense to say that someone is shorter or taller as opposed to simply labeling them tall or short when more than likely there's someone taller or shorter than them out there. As for me, |
| I'm 5'10. Honestly, where I live most guys are 5'7ish and girls at least 5'4. Anytime you see someone over 6ft they look like Godzilla coming through. I guess you could I'm a little over average. Not tall but not short. |
| well being 6ft2 has a lot of ups but my one issue was i was to tall to be a tanker in the military but other then that not really any downsides. |

| I've heard that it is more attractive to be tall for men and cute for some woman to be reasonably short. |

| When I was in high school I went to a class where the shortest guy was 6'2". It's easy to feel short in Norway I reckon. I think 6 foot is the average height for men. |

LadyRenly said: Ew. No. It's either iced tea or water.You're showing a lot of interest in me. Coffee? It's not really a 'lot of interest', I just remember things. Also, I was going to say that being 6'2" isn't so bad. I know I, for one, love climbing jungle gyms....if you get my meaning. |
| Im around 178-180cm(5'8), my advantages are playing volleyball. Can jump high as f**k. In two years ill probs reach over 6'1 lel. |
 |
| 190cm (~6ft2) I don't really see any advantages or disadvantages because most men my age are around the same height here (average). |
 |
| 5' 2'' There are advantages? Jeez. Where I'm from most of you are either average or above average. Edit: Though you guys are giants compared to most of the teenagers I've seen these days. |
