My great grandfather was 5'2 (about where I stand) and he lived to be 99.5 yrs old. We don't really have many tall people in our family although my 12yr old is already taller than me!!

I don't think it's so bad being a short female. But I'd think it would be tougher being a short male.

I agree and it should not be that way either. My father was very short and my mom taught me to measure a man by the “neck up.” ha ha. Meanwhile, as a petite gal, I had the choice of guys since they were all “tall enough” for me.

The toughest thing are the ladies who insist on dating tall people.

People ask me what I look for in a gal, and I say, well I’m looking for someone with large breasts, tan and gorgeous.

They invariably get all snotty, and then I ask if they’d prefer ‘tall, dark and handsome’ ;)
