Is size important?

Do you feel your life has been affected by your size?

If you are tall do you spend your life stooping? If you are small has it affected your personality? Would you marry someone who was vastly different in size from yourself?

On this one I'm decidedly average at five foot eleven. I was always the tallest boy in my class at school, but my growth has been stunted since the age of twelve, I can't think why.

I’m five foot six and no I don’t think it matters. I believe that the size of your personality is more important and what you do with it in this world.

I stopped growing when I started smoking at 12 or 13, My father was 5’ 11” my grand father was 6’ are so and my great grand farther was over 6’ 2” and so on. My son is just 14 and is now as tall as me and continuing to grow.

I don't think it was the cigarettes that stunted your growth!

Apparently the only pre-defined thing that can be applied to babies, is that baby boys will be as tall, or taller than their maternal grandfather.

5' 11'' Why?

Mums dad was about 5' 5" , so at 5' 7" it works for me. As my granny used to say "Good stuff comes in little packages" so I suppose that,s what she was talking about.

Most of the guys on in my family are short so I aint bothered besides at 5:7 I am closer to the womens hieght.

I wouldnt say size affects your life, like doug said its the personality that matters. At only just 5ft i dislike being short and it does make me feel consious especially when my 6 year old is nearly as tall as me. Both my brothers are a lot taller and it does look funny me standing with them.

I have never really been bothered by my size. At school I was always the shortest and the smallest! However, now I am 6'2 and 18st! For some reason I am still not bothered by my size! Can not think why but there you go!
