what are peoples opinions?
ive noticed that guys upto about 6'2 are considered ok, but people over that (i come in at 6'8) seem to be too tall.
does this also apply to the more vertically challenged out there?
I'm 'only' 6.3 so I cant quite put myself in your positon but I like being tall(ish).
Thier have been times when it has worked against me though like when driving small cars or when picking a new motorblike, all the latest sports 600's a quite small!
I happy with my hight and their is no way I would want to be any smaller. But getting back to your comment I guess your right. I know a few big lads, 6.4 /6.6, and people tend to make a bit of a deal of it.
Sometimes I wish I was taller, I'm only 5'3 sad . When I go to gigs I can't see a thing cos everyone else is so tall.
Male half of masked wench...
I'm 6 5 and hate it trying to get clothes and shoes are a nigtmare, but got maskedwench through being tall wouldnt of seen her on the dancefloor so not to bad....
No problems, we're all the same when we're lying down wink
SO.... size really does matter then lol :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
My hubby is 6'1 and i'm only about 5'5 ish
I love him being taller than me, meens i can put my head on his chest when i cuddle him smile
As a woman, personally I find it compulsorily attractive for a man to be tall from 6 foot and onwards (even more attractive than the muscular body). For me, the height gives the man that certain superiority that I find it oh so masculine.
BUT...6.8 is a bit freakingly tall but if I were a 6 footer gal, I'm sure my opinion would be different. If I knew you well and liked you and I'm about say 5.2 for example, I'm sure your height wouldn't stop me from wanting to date you.
Have you thought about targetting 6 footer women? I heard Jerry Hall is available and she's a hottie for her age. wink
i have to admit i like a guy whos 6ft plus too
tho saying that high dosn't really matter that much but i really couldn't see me going for a guy who was shorter than me, i'm 5ft6 so there are a few out there lol
lol @ dating jerry hall.....anyone got her number?
although i know what you mean lusty modesty.....im no a freak boooo hooo!!!!
mistress sassy.....thats a line i use often, but i thought it was reserved for tall people needing an excuse. would you be happy to test the theory?
I'm a shorty and don't find height an issue really.........but when someone says they are really tall I do kind of think......hmmm.......nice!!
wink
Tall Taller and Tallerer pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze biggrin
But it is essential that the body weight/size is in proportion. Tall an skinny isn't too good, whereas tall and strong/heavy enough to pin me down and take what ya want is yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

6ft 8 :shock:
That might be a bit tall for me - I'm only 5ft. (then again could come in handy at some point) rolleyes redface
well i'm 6'1 and am quite happy with that height :thumbup:
advantages :-
can reach items at the back of top shelves in supermarkets
can see over people's heads at concerts, cinema, etc
can torment small children and vertically challenged adults by dangling items just out of their reach
disadvantages :-
always getting pestered by OAPs in supermarkets wanting the last tin of tripe at the back of the shelf
getting tutted at by short people and children when i stand in front of them at concerts or sit in front of them in cinemas
prone to banging head on low door frames (much worse for lancy i guess)
I'm with Mistress Sassy on this one: we're all the same height lying down :twisted:

advantages :- of being 5ft
can reach items at the back of top shelves in supermarkets - good excuse to get a hunky man to do it for me
can see over people's heads at concerts, cinema, etc - can ask to sit on hunky's shoulders at concerts and wrap my thighs round his neck :twisted:
can torment small children and vertically challenged adults by dangling items just out of their reach - smackbottom bad Johneboy
disadvantages :-
always getting pestered by OAPs in supermarkets wanting the last tin of tripe at the back of the shelf - ha they never ask me
getting tutted at by short people and children when i stand in front of them at concerts or sit in front of them in cinemas - get to go and stand at the front (when I'm not on a hunky man's shoulders)
prone to banging head on low door frames (much worse for lancy i guess) - only ever happens in tents and that doesn't hurt.

I've decided I think I like being vertically challenged wink
What about a threesome with a tall man and a short man - would that be OK :twisted:
I guess I am a fairly average height for a bloke ( 6 ft) so hard to comment one way or the other, I do have a cpl of male friends who are well over 6 ft tall and they seem to do ok at chams nudge nudge wink wink, so from my experience I would have to say its an advantage, although am sure there is a point where it becomes a disadvange....... maybe at 6 ft 8 you are just over that mark.......

shame Dudley Moore's no longer with us... what about Danny Devito, he's around 5' dunno
At 5'6'', I guess I'm what folk would regard as a "wee guy". And I suppose, unfortunately, it puts me in the category of 'not considered' by some of you gorgeous ladies out there. Its all down to what you fancy tho'.
Disadavantages are obvious: basketball players always sit in front of me at the theatre or football. I choose not to moan - but do sit smugly and say "there's plenty of room", when on a coach or an aeroplane.
Also, my feet don't stick out the end of the bed!

OMG how much do i agree with that!!!! I live in a village where houses were made for dwarves i think.
looks like im in with a chance tho, people definately seem receptive to the taller man....even if i am freakishly tall. lol.
