I'm 5'8. Tall to me is a woman who is 5'10 and above.

I like being my height. I would love to be taller - about 5'10 would be great.

Exact same here.

6'0" here. I like it most of the time, but buying clothing (pants especially since I need 36-38" inseam) is a challenge.

The pants. That's really the only part that is troublesome. I'm only 5'8" but I've got long legs. Everyone thinks I'm way taller than I am because I'm basically all legs. A giraffe.

I wear 3-5" heels without issue. I love shoes.

Always dated taller men. I like looking up to kiss my honey.

Yes, I love being tallish.

I'm 5'7.5". I like being on the taller side of average but would love to be like 5'10" or 5'11".

I'm 5'-11". It was tough being tall during middle school and high school. I had a horrible self image. I kind of came into my own in my late 20s and started to appreciate my body - I was also extremely thin and flat chested as well which didn't help. I had a health issue which led me to gain some weight and finally got a little bootie an some boobs in my 30s. I'm in my 50s now and my height is a non issue and I'm used to my body now...

Hell yeah, clothes look better on tall women. [Sorry shorties! ]

I'm 5'8", and I've always wanted to be 5'9".

I will say that it seems that a lot of tall guy like short women. That used to be a point of frustration for me, but I don't care much any more. A tall woman commands attention when she walks into a room.

I love wearing short skirts and shoes with heels. I also get a kick out of towering over short men.

I'm 5'9 and love it!

Same here, pretty much. Although it took much longer to appreciate my height -- way past 20s. Tall does look better if you can find the right fit. unless you are overweight and flat chested, which I always feared made me look masculine or like a closeted tranny. So, there is incentive to watch your weight. As for clothes, it took me a long time to figure out that there are some styles you MUST avoid due to height (Can't always follow every trend)

You can't date someone shorter than you? Is that a rule I missed?

14:09 - 5'7" is tall-ish, but not really tall. It's not a bad place to be.

Yes I have always loved being tall. I am nearly six foot.

I am 5-11.

Hated it as a teen and have grown to love it. The only downside at the younger age is the desire to just blend in and look like everyone else.

I believe it seriously helps professionally.
