I have no preference as long as I am not having to contort my neck too much to look at them.

I have no preference..both require you to crane your neck in uncomfortable positions..But, because you asked nicely, I will pick shorter. I have to look up waay too often, it's time for there to be a change.

I have no preference. I'm used to being shorter than most people in the world.

It's the dialogue that is more important, to me, size means nothing.

I never really thought of it. Even if it's a date; on the horizontal, who cares who's taller?

I like being smaller. When i am taller I feel all awkward and gawky. I like feeling little. Except if I am being kind of intimidated.

I wouldn't know since I've never been taller than 5 feet. Also, it depends on the person. If it is a boss or some official I would prefer the same size or shorter because some people who are taller than me can use their height to be intimidating.

It would be nice to be shorter than most people for a change.

I've always been the girl who's taller than all her friends.... short people ask me to reach things on high shelves for them in grocery stores....

It's hard to answer, because I don't really notice or think about it too much. I'm told, from psychology stuff I've read, that I'd be happier looking down on people. But, I don't seem to mind looking up. I have a sneaky side to my personality that sort of enjoys being someone who flies under the radar. I don't think I'd like being very tall. But, maybe I'm just saying that because I've been conditioned by my height (I'm fairly average 5'9").

How tall are you? Do you play basketball?
they Survey Central SubscriberBronze Star Survey Creator
(reply to bill) posted 10-Mar-2008 7:11am  

I'm not that tall.... I'm just taller than most women, it seems.

I'm only 5'9".

I'm the shortest person in my family... my sister is 6', my brother is 6'2".

No, I don't play basketball. Ben does though... Well, he did until he did this about a month ago:


So.... I don't think I want to play basketball much. I'll stick with "HORSE" and "PIG" out in the driveway.

Depends on their sex.

I can't stand when men are shorter than me. Makes me feel uncomfortable. Same way I am really not used to women being taller than I.

The biggest! *raspberry*

Actually, his feet are freakishly big.... size 13... most of that is toes.... They practically have extra knuckles. *smile*

Being shorter more matches the inner being in me who feels smaller than everyone else.
