Does height really maters?

in some instances, height does matter. for example, beauty pageants require certain height limit. if a lady is short, she is not qualified to join. also, some jobs require minimum height. i could imagine the stewardess who stand tall to reach that high cabin. some sports pose advantages for people who are tall like basketball, tennis, boxing.. however, i believe that height should not make any difference if we highlight our features that compensate for the lack of it. i believe smiling is an equalizer. humor is too. no matter how tall or short, we see people of what they do, what they think, and what they believe in.

Nope, I don't believe height really matters, its whats in tje inside that counts. Just be yourself and don't mind what other people thinks. Your doing the right thing, not being bothered about your height and being proud of who you are. Keep it up and remember "Great things comes in small packages!" ;-) Take care!

i donot think so that height matters in our life look bruce lee was 5 fet and 5 inches and he was great fitter . and other sitde there are nearly 50 people in our country who are 7 feet + but they are not famous and they are not even good worker too.

I don't think so...my husband looks so gorgeous and he stands 5' 9" and my height is 5 feet...so I don't think it really matters at all...you have your own asset and beauty to show.

Hi! It really depends on your perception if it matters or not. But based on what you said, i think you're not really bothered about it and i know that despite what others tell you, i'm pretty sure that you are a confident lady. :) So, just keep the confidence, it doesn't really matter whether you're tall or "cute"... have a nice day!

Don't worry about that!I support you very much.In my opinion,height is just a statistics and just a number,everyone has different numbers,that is simple to understand.Yes,somebody wants to be taller and perfect figure,but the reality is the opposite.It does not matter,I think.To be happy in your life circle,that is enough.

Hi there, dont be depressed if ur height is small, just reply to all those who bug you with this wonderfull comment " im not small, im fun sized!!! " anyway, its u that matters the most, not the height, people still love you even if ur just urself, so being taller wont make a difference.

I wouldnt worry about that midgen, just think all the guys you like will be taller than you hehe, and that is what many females like a taller guy right? so just relax, and you are still young so you will grow another inch proabaly. Like myself, i like petite women anyway! take care, dont worry. cliff

Well... I can't say that your height is all that matters, but of course in social life, people with abnormal height will be treated different than people with "the correct height" With this, I mean that people that are dwarfs, and giants will usually get stared at, simply because they are different. That's a fact, and we can't do much about it. sadly, that's just a part of human nature.

yes,,i dont lyk my gf 2 be short,, i mean wen oder people see us,,dey think dat she is my sister,,hehe

height doesnt matter,what matters most is what she know,her brains is the most important.the looks can fade but knowlegde lasts a lifetime.having goodlooks and height are only physical aspects of man but knowledge is what made people do the things others cant.

Im 5'7" and I have a "cute" friend who is 4'6" and she raises her chin when she talks to me. I dont know if height matters but if talking looking up to tall people intimidate you then if matter for you. Like mentioned before, it depends on your perpective. Does it bother you that much? Tall women intimidate boys... Does that help?

Big things comes in small packages..... that what i keep in my mind.. I only stand 4'11 im not bothered by it but i can do more than the tall people that i know off.. So if your short, hey remember, big things comes in small packages :-)

Forget about height length and size does matter

Though there are some areas where we could say that height sometimes matter (job application where there's a height requirement and other stuff like that), I really feel that what's important is how you carry yourself and being happy with what God had given you. If you are not bothered and feel very much comfortable and confidence with your height, then just enjoy life with it.

Its not that tall people are more advanced and superior than short people but they have some exceptional quality which the short lakes but this should be seen as a chalenge and not a weakness.

I don't think height is that big of a deal. It doesn't give you more confidence and it doesn't make you feel more important. I think that is in some peoples minds. What you feel inside determines the rest of your outlook, not your physical attributes.

Well I'm over twice your age, and not as tall as I could be! Sure, I endured a fair amount of teasing while growing up through school, and that in turn affects one's confidence. I can't say it really bothers me now, people can like me for who I am, or push off. I think as someone else has already put, it seems to be more important that a guy be taller, not so much for girls! You have the right attitude, stick by it!

Some of what you said is true, but only because the society nurtures that kind of crap. Tall people are more confident, well if you keep praising them and looking up to them (despite what they do or what they really are) guess what, their egos are stroked and they'll be confident. I say arrogant depending on who we are talking about. Don't let the height thing sweat you Migen. You are the way you are, and nothing is going to change that. Even Eugenics is looking like a sinking ship. Just be yourself, be proud and by the way you can do all the jobs you described at lesser heights (yes even sports, I see the teams from time to time, nothing pro but minor leagues and such). Build your confidence now. Stand up and laugh at the nonsense reality tells you. Heck imagine your inner self taller if you have to, just look at the positive traits you have and count that as your inner height. I might not be able to convince you, but I know you'll find out what is truly important for you.

I dont see anything wrong with being too tall, or too short. Or too anything. Height shouldn't matter. You seem to have the looks and the personality, so you shouldn't have to worry too much. People just naturally tease anyways. I mean. if you're not too tall or too short, they'll just find out some other silly little flaw to point out. Just keep expressing yourself as positive as you can and dont let the silly comments bother you, most likely noone really means anything by them anyways, they just want to say something & if they dont have anything to say they'll observe you & pick out something that makes you different from others. and hey. The shorter you are that means people can give you piggyback rides! Want a piggyback ride? aha :p I remember getting them as a kidd. fun times! lol :p
