Are you happy with your height?

6'3". I like it overall. I got my growth spurt early. I was about 5'10" in 6th grade and done by senior year.

I always felt kinda lumbering playing sports though. My height helped as a pitcher in baseball, but anything that involving quick movements (basketball, soccer, tennis, etc) didn't go very well.

Although seeing some of my friends start the balding process has made me infinately more grateful for my full head of hair.

Nope. My mom is 6 foot, my dad's 5'11", and I was 5'2" at 10 years old. I was supposed to be a giantess. Then I just sorta stopped growing. I've managed to get up to 5'4" which isn't too much shorter than average, but considering how tall I thought I was going to be I'm quite disappointed.

5'4" is right about average for a female (assuming America).

5'4" for a dude is a whole different ballgame than for a girl.
 
Nope I'm like 5'8" and it sucks. That coupled with the fact that I'm ugly and fat...

Really, it's natures way of telling me I'm a failed experiment and should never breed.
 
Lol omg there are some monsters here on gaf. I'm 5'7" and having a great time. Only been palmed in the face a handful of times and beem looked at by girls in a disgusted way once or twice. I think I'm better off for it :p
 
Yeah, I'm good at 6'4". About 245lbs, not muscular by any means, but I have a decent frame in all honestly. I feel pretty tall, but not super tall. Got a 7' guy at my office, now that's fucking tall. Makes me feel average.
 
My height is like my penis size. If I could be taller (or bigger :p), that'd be great but I'm pretty happy where I am now.
 
Not really. I'm 5'10. Hoping I'll gain a few inches before my time is up but its looking a bit bleak. But hey stranger things have happened.
I'm 16 so I've got a couple years hopefully.
 
5'11. I wanted to reach my dad's 6 feet but in the end I'm fine with it, plus I still feel like a giant every so often in SoCal with how short some of these hispanic men can be.
 
5'7. I console myself with the knowledge that I am actually one inch taller than the average male. Eurofucks screwed everything up by being humongous. I blame Germany.
 
5'11" here as well. I am okay with my height, but my current girlfriend is tall enough that she is taller than me with heels on. I never thought it would bother me, but it kind of does and I wish it didn't.

If I could choose I would probably want to be 6'1" or 6'2". My dad and my older brother are both a bit over six foot, my younger brothers are 5'7" and 6'3".
 
6'2" I like it..tall enough to be called tall.. and taller than all my coworkers... except my boss he's got a couple on me..

I thought all 7-footers are in the nba by default.

jk
 
I'm 6'3. Boyfriend is 6'7. Sex is leggy.

Public transportation of ANY sort is uncomfortable and I seem to be predisposed to having giant legs (I don't even work them that much) so pants kind of suck too. Those are really my only gripes.
 
6'1" here. I'm pretty happy with it, I guess. I don't really feel "tall", but I'm very rarely the shortest one in the group, so I've got that going for me.

Wouldn't mind another 2 inches, though.

Back when I was on the rowing team, you'd see some real giants at the regattas – like modern vikings. Only environment I've ever really felt like I was on the shorter end of the spectrum.
 
I'm 6'2" and I really think it's the perfect height. You get maximum benefit of being relatively tall to most people but not so tall that you can't fit into a smaller car or an airplane seat or whatever. At least in the US, things were a bit harder in the UK and I was way too tall living in Asia.
 
I always get weirded out when I see people taller than me. Like, being tall is my thing how dare you? I live in Las Vegas which has a pretty decent sized hispanic population (although I am part Mexican too) and many in that demo are on the shorter side. I'm the tallest one in a room quite often.
 
6'1" here. A few years ago, I was getting into dating after a break-up, and I was never very confident in general. A girl I briefly dated asked me what feature I liked most about my body. I replied that I wasn't sure, and honestly I usually focused more on my flaws then advantages. She said, "oh, I figured you'd say your height."

This one comment literally changed dating for me. Suddenly I was aware how great it is being tall and over the last few years, that feeling has only gotten stronger and made me seriously confident in my appeal to the opposite sex. Even though we didn't work out, I'll always remember her for this.

I have a seriously girlfriend now, but I still walk around thankful that the genetic lottery was good to me.
 
I'm pretty short, 5'6" but I don't give a fuck. The only thing I would've cared about was that women might find me less attractive. But now I'm married to a very beautiful woman so it didn't matter in the end.
 
I'm 6'2.

Would prefer to be 5'11. Being so tall makes it super awkward to date short women, but at 5'11 you would still be at the right height for most tall women.
 
5'7"

Eh, I wouldn't mind some extra height but I'm not exactly losing sleep either.

although for some reason I have a tall girl magnet since my last two girlfriends where about 1 inch taller than me.
 
FUCK NO ! I'm the exact same height I was when I entered High school as a freshman back in 2011. Last May I graduated and I'm still the same height. 5' fucking 4 ! All my friends grew up to be big as hell and the only thing I got was this cheap ass peach fuzz mustache ! I look like a damn kid. Everyone thinks I'm 14, but I'm actually 19 turning 20 years old in May. That's fucked up.

Damn I could've at least be 5'6, but nope I'm cursed to look like a mere child for the rest of my life. Going to be really brutal when I start college. At least I was blessed with a pretty good size penis. But still, it's fucked up.
 
I'm 6'1 and I wish I was 6'3, that's my dream height. It looks like my little brother might hit that height though since he is 14 and is 5'10 already. He is growing at roughly the same pace I did. I'm 19 and males don't stop growing until they hit 21 supposedly so there's still hope!!!

No there isn't
 
I'm 5'9 which is supposed to be average, but honestly I feel short when I compare myself to the other guys on my campus.

Eh, what can you do.
