Gah! Seats on planes! I'm sometimes tempted to try first class, just once, for the experience. But I know that once I did, I'd never be able to return to the seats that I can afford.
Getting things out of low cupboards can be tricky. There's a lot of me, and the cupboard under the sink seems to have been purposely designed to require folding my body into impossible positions. But I suppose around here that'd be considered good training, so I won't expect any sympathy.
I used to have this foolish notion that a tall man and a short woman would have a variety of practical problems with sex. Now that I'm older and wiser, I know that nothing can stop two people enjoying themselves if they want it.
Disadvantages....
When I was young...The nick names... Big Bird...Lucky legs...Lanky Lucy...
Were you born in a Green House...Do you sleep in a Grow Bag...Lurch...!!!... :dry:
Disadvantages now... Can never find trousers long enough in main stream shops!!
Can never go un-noticed when im trying to sneak around... :twisted:
haha nicknames......im still called lancy now.....see ;)
plane seats are terrible.....i have to get the front ones with leg room, and you always get little old ladies booking them first when they dont need em.
also never try POTHOLING if your over 6' i can verift you wont get far and might get stuck. lol
I am sixfoot two and proud of my body.
On the plus side : yobo's think twice before taking me on.
Can see more in a crowd.
Usefull for reaching up high.
People look up to me.
Minus : None really, I enjoy walking tall.
hi jane here, bein 5 11 myself, i do prefere a taller bloke.... 6ft 2 + works well 4 me as this is about my height in shoes... chris is a tad smaller than me but i dont like men at tit height!!
so taller the better...., stand proud!!
'm only 6'2", so don't have too many of the problems experienced by really tall people, but do have a few compounded by me being almost as broad as I am tall (well not really, but I do have a 52" chest measurement).
Clothes can be a bit of a pain in the arse, or more accurately across the shoulders. Fortunately I've started to notice a lot more places selling XXL t-shirts and stuff like that, and although I'm tall I've got quite short legs relative to the rest of me, so getting trousers to fit isn't a huge problem. Size 13 feet can be annoying to get shoes for, I tend to buy them online most of the time, actually that goes for most of my clothes, it's the most reliable way to find somewhere with stock in my size.
I don't fly for several reasons, but not fitting into a standard plane seat in terms of both leg room and shoulder room is quite a big part of that. I travel by train a lot and book cheap first class tickets wherever possible if I'm travelling for more than three hours or so, that way I get to the other end still able to walk.
Other than that, and trying to find beds/towels big enough for me being tall is pretty good. I like being able to see over the top of people's heads, reach high things without a ladder, and scare small children.
lol @ dam buster.
wow jane.......your really tall, thats gotta be a good sign.
any other tall ladies on the site?
I'm only 5'3 but havn't found it to be a problem. nothing wrong with resting your head on a womans chest. and as someone has already said, "all the same height when were laying down".oh eer!!
) and sooooo many people came out with the same 4 or 5 jokes. Do you sleep in a growbag?.... do you eat 3 shredded wheat? ....What's the weather like up there?......etc.
..but there is an advantage !!! at the rugby i get to stand with the kids on the wall and get to see those sexy big guys in little shorts more closely :twisted: ....but then again there are some kids taller than me 
ops:
:hunk:
it's what's inside that really matter's.
