Re: Height Poll

  • Techinically, I'm 5'11 3/4", but since most people see me shoes I figure who's going to miss that extra 1/4".

  • Is this because you met me and discovered my shortness? 
  • I'm 5' 9 1/2" but I wear heels to work a lot... usually adds 2-3 inches depending on the shoes.
  • 5'3".  I hate it.  Mostly, I'm too tall for 30" inseam pants, and too short for regular inseam pants without them dragging on the ground.

  • I'm just barely under 5'3
  • I'm 5'8''. I hardly ever wear anything other than flip flops or pumas, so I'm always 5'8''.

    It's an ok height, but I find that I either have a lot of short friends, or I am taller than most people.

  • I'm 5'2" (cries)and literally, of that my hip through heel is thirty seven and a bit inches. Pants fail on me 99% of the time. But really, I'm rarely ever withouth four inch heels so... yeah. Shhhh!

  • TR! (Threadjacking) So Mr Panda saw a clip of a punkin chunkin event on TV the other day and said "Why didn't we go to THAT?!" And then I had to explain that we were camping and that you had gone to that at the same time. And then I had a sad because punkin chunkin seemed like such a better idea than camping in 37 degree weather and getting felt up by a pine tree.

    No, I luff short people. I always wanted to be shorter because all conversations happen at my chest level and it made me uncomfortable.  I had to squat to be a part of them.

  • I'm exactly 5 feet tall. I don't mind being short. Lots of people think I'm a teenager though. I've had a couple of people knock on my door (people passing out political pamphlets) and ask for my mom :/

  • 5'4" I don't mind it usually. The only things that suck are that I work in a used bookstore, so I can't reach the top shelves easily. Also, my FI puts thing in the top shelves in the kitchen and then I have to climb onto the countertop to reach it. My jeans do drag a bit, but they eventually wear out enough at the bottom that it doesn't bother me. I'm lucky to work in a place with a really easy dress code.

    I'm an inch shorter than my dad and I'm supposed to the "baby" of the family. He has gotten used to it over the years.

  • I'm 5'8" and I LOVE 3 and 4 inch heels!  I am wearing 4-1/2 inch heels on wedding day.  FI is 6'2".  I'll be looking him right in the eye.  He loves it!
  • I'm 5'2".  FI is 6'4".  It's like he was made with the sole purpose of forcing me to spend lots of money on shoes :)

    [QUOTE]I'm 5'8", right on the cusp between normal length and tall length for most things. I'm going to have to get my wedding dress in extra length so that I can wear heels, and this annoys me. I've had people tell me at GTGs that they thought I was short because FI looks so much taller in pictures. He's 6'3".
    Posted by sarah0725[/QUOTE]

    That's interesting, I guess all designers are different because I'm 5'7" and had to get 4" heels so I wouldn't have to hem my dress (because I'm cheap), haha.

    Matilda, I went to school with a girl who would say she was 5'12" when people asked her, because it sounded better to her than 6".

    Interesting. I used to tell people that I was 5'11 3/4" just to make them think about for a second. Then I figured out that by saying 6' it was more of a shock factor.
