I like to put things on the top shelf and watch them reach for it but just fall short... lol they are adorable.

I try to not think about short people.



I am 6'1" and I consider it the ideal/perfect height for me. I have always been confident and never self-conscious about my height. I feel like I am tall enough to be considered "good" tall and short enough to not develop any problems from being too tall.

Confidence can only take you so far though.



I say send them back and build the wall. and get the short people to pay for it.

Well, they're people. They're also shorter than I am. Short women can also be quite attractive in a way (or not; depends on the case).

I do make jokes about shorter people that I know (assuming they understand the humor of course).

And some short people I assume are good people. ;)



Define tall. How short are you, spurge? :P I'm either 6'0 or 6'1, and I sometimes feel weird talking to people who are too much shorter than me. I feel my body involuntarily trying to slump over, lol. I don't particularly like having to look down at people. Makes me feel weirdly condescending. I've found that if someone is 5'10 or taller I pretty much perceive them as the same height as myself, though.

society generally favors tall people, and bigger things are generally viewed as better. to a degree having something of a bigger size can be a status symbol. having a 50 inch tv is respected a lot more than having a 20 inch tv. having more money is better than having less money. and being taller is favored over being short. I myself am a 5'7" male, meaning i just hit the average height of men. i envy people that are taller than me, the 6' and above people specifically, but i cant put down anyone shorter than me because while i am not as short as them, i still know the pain.

5'7 is below average where I'm from. I used to have nightmares of growing up to be your height back when I was 16 and 5'5. Back then I cared so much about height. These days it doesn't bother me too much. I wonder why. 



I'm like 186cm tall, and honestly, i kinda do feel good when i'm around someone shorter than me, even my aunts, uncles and parents. My boyfriend is around 175cm and i could never date someone taller than me lol



No short people are superior since the best console and game developers are Japanese. And Japanese are on average shorter than Africans, Americans and Europeans.

 

Edit

I am a disgrace for my nation though, since I am Dutch and only 175cm. Dutch people are supposed to be one of the longest natonalities in the world.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
