    Screw you (tall) guys.

    This is how I saw you people as a kid.
    [​IMG]
    Am 5'8", which is borderline short for East-Asian average (Chinese are 5'7", Koreans 5'9", Jap 5'7")
    ... but you learn to live with it through athletics, slim cut clothes, etc.

    On a side note the chinese male standard is 高富帅. Literally tall, rich, handsome.
    And yea they left out "dark", because that's a weird white person thing, while adding "rich", because duh.

    1. Are you happy with how tall you are?
    Not really but nothing I can do about that, I could use a little bit more so I'm not the shortest among my mates and family. It would definitely help in the kitchen with reaching the top shelve.

    2. When did you stop growing? Are you still growing?
    I guess around 13.

    3. If you could permanently change your height, how much taller or shorter would you make yourself?
    Right now I'm 5ft6, I'd probably add 3 -4"

    4. How much taller or shorter than you is your ideal love interest?
    I haven't really thought about that but I probably want someone within few inches from me, taller or shorter.

    1. Are you happy with how tall you are?
    Well, I guess I'm happy with it​
    2. When did you stop growing? Are you still growing?
    Idk, It was years ago probably, Last time I checked (years ago when I was still in the middle of growing) I was about 6'1'' and I think I should have grown a cm or two ever since if I have continued growing, but doubt it​
    3. If you could permanently change your height, how much taller or shorter would you make yourself?
    I'm somewhat fine with my height, though I gotta admit it's a bit of a pain to have to crouch often because people in the country where I live are mostly shorter than me...​
    4. How much taller or shorter than you is your ideal love interest?
    I like short girls so... that's it, though i don't mind them being as tall, taller would be... weird... not in a bad sense but... I mean I'm technically tall so a girl taller than me would feel weird...​

    1. Are you happy with how tall you are?
    Honestly tho, I felt kinda unsatisfied with my own height. Not hating it, but if I could get taller, it's better.

    2. When did you stop growing? Are you still growing?
    Probably when I hit my 25, as in 4-5 years ago?
    yes I'm old enough to get called as uncle now

    3. If you could permanently change your height, how much taller or shorter would you make yourself?
    Taller, by at least 10cm, but no more than 20.

    4. How much taller or shorter than you is your ideal love interest?
    My wife's shorter than me by ~5cm, so there you have it.

    1. I'm 5 feet 9,5 inches tall (176,5 cm). It's much higher than average height of women in my country but I'm quite happy with it. At least I can reach a top shelf in a library.
    2. 17-18 years old
    3. I wouldn't change it. I'm used to it so I don't feel the need.
    4. As tall as me or taller (doesn't matter how much).

    Yes
    Was 6'4" for a while as a teenager then grew to 6'6" as a young adult. Been the same since.
    Zero. While there are many inconveniences to being this tall in a world designed for midgets, I don't mind it. I don't think being taller is better, I'm just used to who I am and I'm fine with it. Being taller than mostly everyone does have some fun perks.
    Slightly shorter, probably within the 5'10"-6'4" range. This doesn't matter too much but I would like someone tall enough that I could properly do ballroom dancing with them.

    1. Are you happy with how tall you are?
    No

    2. When did you stop growing? Are you still growing?
    Around highschool? 15. No

    3. If you could permanently change your height, how much taller or shorter would you make yourself?
    3inch or more will be good enough. Im 5'5 1/2 sometimes they dont even count the .5 inch so I sometimes cant get work due to height restrictions.

    4. How much taller or shorter than you is your ideal love interest?
    I prefer her to be at least the same height as me(original height) but not short around 5'0.

    It's a good height difference for sex :blobwhistle::blobwhistle::blobwhistle:

    :notlikeblob::notlikeblob::notlikeblob: I'll excuse myself from this thread now!

    I'm alright with my height, although for me it's more about the relative height between the couple.... I like taller guys almost without a question, and while I like height gap in manga, at a certain point I think it becomes impractical for various things. :blobsalt::blobsalt::blobsalt:

    1. No. Car roofs, ceiling fans, door frames, etc. stink at 6'6" and I pity basketball stars that are taller.
    2. Stopped growing a couple months after 20th bday; needed surgery for a bone spur cutting muscle in my leg. Hint: growing 6" in 2 months is bad!
    3. 6'2" max, 5'8" min.
    4. Height isn't a factor I've considered more do I think I ever will.
