Are you satisfied with your own height?

Hi all, Are you satisfied with your own height? I am not tall but I am satisfied with my own height as I don't see the need to be very tall. Height seems to be hereditary and your height is highly dependent on your parent's height. Female are luckier as we can wear high- heels to look taller while males are not given this advantage.

I AM! im real tall, 5'11" and in high school i absolutely hated it because i was taller then most of the kids but now after being on my own and in college i have completely embraced it and its worked out to my advantage because people randomly assume im a model which is hilarious but no matter how tall or short someone is they should definitely just be satisfied with it becuase TRUST me, there is no point in worrying about it cause you cant physically change how tall you are.

Hi Frnd, I am just 5'6" but I am satisfied with my height. I am very much confident and don't feel ashamed in infront of people who have more hight than me,,,One has to be satisfied with his/her hight cause it can harm your confidence which is very much necessary than the hight....

Haha...No. I'm quite short as a girl, only 5 feet tall. But, I can't change it. You're right if you say that it's matter of heredity. I mean, my mom is not too tall either.

Hi friend, I am not satisfied with my height.I want to grow some good height. My height is 5.7" inches so any chances of growing height can you give suggestions A height 6 feet or 5.11" is enough. Have a great day.

I think there are no other ways other than jumping or playing basketball. However, if you are over your height growing age nothing can be done but to live happily with your height. Thanks for your response.

I am a person of average height of 157.5 cm. I think it is fine for a girl to have this height. I am of medium height compared to height ratio in my country. I don't like people to be too short or too tall. I am lucky to find a partner of almost the same height as me. I also don't prefer to wear high heeled shoes. I am just not comfortable with them.

i am not satisfied with my height because all of the people would make a comment that i can be more prettier if i was tall. and also to be tall have lots of opportunities. they can be a flight attendant, a model or a celebrity.

Hello Ionsquare,I am not so tall but I am happy the way I am.The only thing that irritates me is when people starts asking me silly questions like "How come your not as tall as your mom and dad,your elder sister,brother..even your youngest sister is taller than you.This really blows my mind.I hate when people starts comparing my height with my siblings.I am not so tall but hey,common I am average,I am not dwarf.Still I have to hear this comments all my life.I don't wear high heels either.Have a good day and thanks for the post!

I am 5'6" and was satisfied until I dated a guy way taller (6'5"). My husband is only 5'7 or 5'8. I used to feel uncomfortable wearing even a small heel with him. But when I realized it didn't bother him much, I got used to it. :)
