If you could be any height how tall would you be.

I'm 6 foot, but I'm skinny as a rail, so I look taller from far off. I wouldn't mind gaining another inch or two. I'm only 18, so maybe another inch is possible...

I'm about 6'2", maybe a little bit over. Thats great, I wouldn't want to be any taller or shorter. More normal proportions might be ok though. I wear jeans with a 40" inseam, only one store around that has them in my size! Super long arms too so shirts aren't much better. Get them to fit my arms and shoulders and they're too long and big around my waist. T-shirt and Jeans are about the only clothes that really fit, doesn't matter much cause thats all I wear :D
Causes other problems. Having such long legs makes it hard to find horses big enough to ride in the type of stuff I compete in. Generally takes a small horse to do the events I'm interested in (reining for anyone that knows what i'm talkin about) and my long legs make them look even smaller. I have a 2 year old we bred that I won't even be able to ride, she's about 52" tall at the withers, my damn feet almost drag on the ground :(
Its also difficult to get my legs into cars, rollercoasters, airplane seats etc. Why is everything designed for short people!?! :(
 
I'm only 5'1 1/2. Whenever someone measures me I go out of my way to emphasize that extra half inch. :D I always wear heals on my shoes so I'm usually 5'3 1/2 or 5'4 1/2. Sometimes I wish I was taller. Tall women look very statuesque. But there are a lot of benefits associated with being small too. I probably take advantage of all of them. :D My height really hasn't disadvantaged me in any way. :) I might add a couple of inches if I could, but then I wouldn't be me anymore. :D
 
I'm 6'2"/blonde/blue eyes/hwp and I like moonlit walks in the beach under the moon with my soulmate and I like all kinds of music except country and rap and my perfect date is ambulatory, has no active warrants, and breathes unaided.

Great, I know a nice, little lady down the street who fits your criteria perfectly. (Thank goodness he doesn't have a problem with incontinence.) :D
 
I'm enjoying my 6'0... wouldn't mind losing another 5-10lbs though, might get rid of the obliques... not that my 160lbs and 30" waist is fat at all.:D

My only problem is finding clothing that fits me right. have to wear XL tshirts to get the shoulders in, even though a L fits my torso better... Even more fun finding pants that fit. Been wearing slacks for the last few months, they at least don't have room for an extra person in the leg(try to find jeans that are comfy for a 30x32 with muscular legs... it ain't happening).
 
I am six foot even, but have short legs for my height (I'm all torso). My younger brother is 6'2" but I'm one inch longer from belt-line to the top of my head and his legs are three inches longer than mine. With my massive girth it makes clothes shopping a challenge.
 
"I find I have a build that fits many manufacturer's idea of "average", so all kinds of things from clothes to vehicles tend to fit well without any problems."

Mwerner, that is generally my experience, too. I guess there is an up-side to being "common" :D
 
I'm 6'3", but shopping has never been very hard for me. The only thing that I have trouble with is finding shoes. Most shoe stores don't have anything in size 15, and if they do, the selection is limited.
 
I always thought that 6' 1" would be a dandy height. Ah, maybe next life! :D :)
