Obviously, because we can reach the top shelves.

Someday when I can finally afford a Porsche 911, I will at least be able to fit in it, and if I’m not too old by then, get back out of it.

If one examines the biographies of some of the most successful people in the world, a common thread among many of them is long periods of deep frustration and pain.

I guess happiness is not as strong a motivator.

I would fathom a guess that those who fall within a reasonable range from the norm in height are generally happier than those who fall toward the extremes, be it taller or shorter. Just seems like common sense that life might be slightly more difficult for those who are the most “different”.

Well, I’m 5’3” but that’s what high heels are for. Voila...happy!

I’m 6’6 and feeling hostile. Maybe I should stop reading the news and get happy.

The corollary is that many many women are unhappy and insecure.

That is the reason for high heels.

The people of this country paid for this study? What a bunch of fools. Is there not something else they could be doing?

My husband is 6’5” and he is kinda grumpy. I’m 5’5” and cheerful.

It’s very hard to find pants that are size 36 x 36, let me tell you, and there are very few cars that fit him well (steering wheel must be able to pivot up off the knees).

I am only 4’11” and am petite

I am generally a very happy person.

I don’t remember any complaints about my size.

I suspect that men who are erect are happier.

I am 6’3” and am generally happy with my size but there are times such as sitting in an airline seat where I would gladly be 5”6”.

I think this reallu only applies to most men....not so much women. The blonde thing applies to women.
