Does your height affect your daily life?

[AaronKrieger]

No, only in certain situations like where I need to find clothes to fit (specifically jeans), having enough leg room, putting on weight, or to reach something.

I do not think for most people their height impacts their daily life unless they are extremely short or tall.

[JHAYES317]

Daily life? Not really…I’m below avg height…but not where I can’t reach things or do most normal things…it does severely handicap my dating app since women have a height fetish and it hurts my career quite a bit…but it is what it is…

[AmyHew1tt]

I'm 5"4, so I'm not extremely short for a woman, but I am short enough it's inconvenient. Especially at the gym, or reaching for tall cupboards.

[Asker]

Gym equipment is not made for the short of stature lol

[AmyHew1tt]

Nope. Or boobs XD

[Asker]

Lmao. Well I’m glad I don’t have to deal with those getting in the way at least.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt you aren’t short at all…5’4” is literally the exact avg height for a woman in the U. S.

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 I live in Canada. I don't know if the height average is different there, but I'm usually shorter than most girls I see unless they're petite. I think I feel shorter because I was supposed to grow taller, but I had hormone problems and stopped growing earlier than I should have.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt height average there is basically around 5’4”/5’5” so not too different…you may live in a tall area…but that doesn’t make you short?

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 Oh no, I know I'm not that short on the scale of things. But I am short enough that life can be a little inconvenient. And like I said, I FEEL shorter because I know I was supposed to be taller.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt you aren’t short at all lol at least for your gender…I was supposed to be 6 ft but I had a growth disorder and had massively stunted growth but it is what it is

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 True, it's frustrating, but height is only height after all.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt would you date a guy shorter than you?

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 I'm not sure, it would depend on the guy. I would say I'm definitely more attracted to guys who are taller than me, at least by a few inches, but he wouldn't have to be 6+ feet.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt damn ok RIP short kings haha

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 What makes you say that? And what counts as a short king?

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt a man who is in the bottom 2.28% of height in a country, so in Canada’s case, 5’4.5” and below…

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 Well, I can't say for sure whether I'd date a guy shorter than me because I've never met one who wasn't a child. But I wouldn't write it off.

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt you’ll never met a guy shorter than you? Wow you must really live in a tall area then

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 Not really. Most guys I see are 5"6 to 6"2

[JHAYES317]

@AmyHew1tt well sure most guys but there’s gotta be some guys under/over those marks

[AmyHew1tt]

@JHAYES317 I'm sure there are, but I've never met them.

[Beckybooboo]

Not really. I’m tall for a woman (5’9”), so I can reach most things but I’m not so tall that I bump my head.

[Asker]

That seems like a good height to be for either gender. In America at least

[Beckybooboo]

I totally agree! For a girl it is on the taller side but not freakishly tall and there are plenty of guys in that height range, if she prefers a guy taller or around her height. For a guy, it’s average and there are plenty of women shorter, if that’s what he prefers in a girl. It’s the perfect happy medium! 😊

[Asker]

Absolutely agree. And like you said, you can still reach things but aren’t squeezed in with small spaces.

[Yannae]

Sometimes I hit ceilings, sometimes I can't reach. Yes it affects me

[Asker]

So you get it from both ends

[Yannae]

I don't know. I am just an average guy when it comes to height. It affects, but the impact is just minuscule

[Booklover_90]

Sure does. I can’t reach things on the top shelf. 😆

[Asker]

How will you get the books down? 😱

[Booklover_90]

I know right? 😂 I ask for help when I need it. 😊

[Asker]

I can relate. That’s better than climbing!

[aceleon]

no i am 5'10 most it causes problem is when i am in a car or bus and i can't fit my legs.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Not noticably, I can reach most things and I don't need to duck in most situations.

[NathanDavis]

it does have an effect, yes...

doesn't affect me much, no
