Whats your height/ideal height?

WumBuster

Im 5"11/ 1.80 cm. Its not too tall, not too small about the average for a guy so Im happy enough with that, although Id prefer to be maybe an inch or two taller. We all know size matters but what about height?,Are you happy with your height or is it a big deal and what would your ideal height be?

summerskin

I wish I was a little bit taller

I wish I was a baller

El Guapo!

I'm just a shade under 6'1"
I'm happy enough.
Wouldn't mind an extra few inches.................but then who wouldn't!! Amirite??!!





No?





Just me then?




Ok i'll leave.......

mauzo

I'm almost 6ft

I'd love to be 5'2''. I love big tall guys, if I was 5'2'' and he was 6'2'' that would be amazing. He could throw me around to place and he'd have to bend down to kiss me.

Only one guy has ever had to bend down to kiss me. He was 6'4'' and you don't see that every day

I'm 6 foot. don't think I'd change it for the world

The Big Red Button

I'm five foot four and three quarters! :cool:

Pretty average for a girl I'd say. Wouldn't mind being a wee bit taller, so I could reach more stuff high up!

Just walk around on your knees.

I'm 6ft 2" and pretty happy with it tbh. I like being tall.

When it said ideal height I thought you meant ideal height in a partner!

1ZRed

I'm 6ft. I'd say my ideal height would be 6'2 but I'm happy enough with what I have.
I'm still growing pretty fast as it is though so hopefully I might just scrape it!

Talib Fiasco

I'm 6'0. I'd like to be 6'1. Anything more would be too awkward and considering I can't seem to put on weight I'll only end up with the figure of Ryan Tubridy.

I'm asked at least once a week to reach something for a small person

Skylinehead

6ft 3 and skinny, any taller and I'm in Peter Crouch land so I'm good thanks.

Tigger

I'm 6'2 and a slim 17 6
If I was 6'4 and 18 I'd be delighted but as it is I'm defiantly bigger than most

marshbaboon

I'm 6'4 and I can't remember the last time I weighed myself. A bit under 16 stone now I reckon. Slightly overweight atm but I'm burning it fast on a good diet & exercise plan.

Reckon if I cut 5% body fat I'll be at my ideal weight, shouldn't take long. I like my height as it is, so do girls... sometimes!

girl in the striped socks

I'm small. Five foot four.
I'm usually the girl who's forehead hits your elbow trying to make my way to the bar.

I can't reccomend stronglifts 5x5 enough for you

6'5.5 and 13.5 stone... Mr. Beanpole

markc1184

I'm 5'10. I'd like to be a couple of inches taller but probably best that I'm not bacause my girlfriend is only 5'3.

mattjack

I'm 5 foot nine , perfect height for mrs Mattjack when she throws a hook at me..........she's 5 foot 3.

I'm surprised I haven't developed a hunch at this stage. I usually find myself going out with tiny girls... I look like their minder...

wexie

I'm 6'5 and I'm pretty happy with it most of the time.

Except when it's trouser buying time.

(and for the girls that like tall guys, I'm only just above average in Holland)

oh and just over 12.5 stone.

I respond to lanky git (not always well though)

1ZRed

Hmmm..the taller lads are getting all the attention. Better buy a load of HGH online and get started on reaching my goal while I'm still growing if that's the case!

Don't have weights or a bag where I'm living now so I have to do it old school.

Where To

I'm 11 feet tall on my high horse.

Would love to be a foot taller.

Likewise. Have no idea why, but I would say the majority of women I've been with have been under 5'7" or so.

I'm 6ft1 and my gf is 6ft, I wonder will our children be really tall. My da will say they are a terrible height

I'm 6'4" and somtimes it would be nice to be 5'11"- hard on the back when working, good most of the time though. I've one lad works for me who's 6'7" - that's a bit much but he's good for reaching stuff(he's also built like the proverbial brick s-house). Another lad I employ is literally 5' wide, his arms are like my legs, but he does a few hours in the gym every day- that I'd like, absolutely no-one even argues with him, ever. You just take one look and go "naah". I'm no weed, I'm 100kg, but I feel like a stick when I walk beside him.:D

5'7

Would like to be around the 6 mark but at my age is that asking too much? Do you genuinely stop growing or are there ways around it??

stelli

I'm 5-7...and my other half is 6-1.
Perfect height for me..i think...although i wouldn't mind being a little taller!

Have never dated someone smaller than me...despite hearing plenty of times...we are all the same lying down

Depends on when your growth plates fuse but you'll be slowing down the growth from 18/19 onwards until you're in your early 20s. Really does depend on the person because you could stop growing before you're 18 or steadily but slowly keep going for another while.

McChubbin

5" 9 here. I'd like to be taller and thinner...

zcorpian88

Well I'm 5"6, that would be short for a guy. Wish I was taller. 5"9 would do.

No tall people in my family, I think the tallest person in my family is like 5"9.

Shorter people are meant to live longer apparently, tall people more often than not are more prone to heart or circulation problems, so I read. Still wouldn't mind being 5"9 though.

Whatsernamex33

I'm only 5'2", 19. A girl, so it's not as bad...
It'd be cool to be a few inches taller though.

Really took the biscuit when my little sister actually believed I'd grow a few inches on my birthday. :L

Same, no tall people in my family. My Mom and Dad are 5'6, my uncles aren't much taller either.

No you wouldn't....im 5'2 and its kinda awkward sometimes

cgpg5

5"11. Well built too so it goes well with my height. Think this and 6 foot/6"1 are lovely heights tbh

If I had to choose ideal height in a partner anything between 5"5- 5"10 I guess...

5'3". I'm grand. No amount of considering what ideal height I'd like to be will change me being 5'3" so I honestly never thought about being anything else.

I bloody hate high heels though.

Well the women in my family are shorter, they vary between 5"2 and 5"4 I think. The men are all between 5"5 and 5"9.

Funny enough one of the taller people in my family my uncle John was a jockey is his youth, and he's like 5"9. Always thought jockeys had to be tiny, like our height or shorter!

blacklilly

Im 5'5, would love longer legs but that's never going to happen! Ideal height in a partner would be 6'0 or over, I like tall men

Oh I'm not your height, I'm 6ft but was saying all my family are quite short too. Bit of a misunderstanding there

More or less guaranteed. You're a little above average but your gf is extremely tall.

There's a rough rule of thumb to calculate likely height of kids. Take average height of parents and add 2.5 inches for boys, subtract 2.5 inches for girls.

Oh I see, maybe you just have a genetic spike that made ya taller. I heard that some families get that, and manage to have one tall kid, and it can skip a generation.

Nal

I have the inch where it matters...

ManMade

6ft and love it. Just small enough so public transport and airplanes aren't hell but taller than most girls and above average among the lads. Great height for standing crowds like concerts or hill 16 but doesnt block peoples view in the cinema :L . Always wondered what life would be like as a tall guy or short guy

dermiek

I'm 5'9" and overweight.

For my weight, my ideal height would be about 17'4"
