I am 5"2 ~ my height use to bother me, but I've also embraced it as I have gotten older.

I'm probably the only shorty one here. Do I like it? Can't do anything about it so might as well embrace myself. Would I dream to be taller? YES.

6'1", wouldn't mind another inch, but I'm content with my current height. I'm still taller than the rest of my family.

6'1" (female) and always been very happy with my height. The positives greatly outweigh the negatives. I wouldn't mind being an inch or two taller, as long as my feet didn't get any bigger.

I'm 5'5". Wife is 4'11". My height was an advantage in the Navy. Worked in the engineroom and never hit my head on things the tall guys were hitting. Also meant it was easier for me to hide at roll call when they needed "volunteers". I dated some women taller than myself. It's all about self confidence. At work, my height is a disadvantage so I carry a ladder to most trouble calls. I live in a small home with low ceilings. Bedroom ceiling is so low I can almost touch the ceiling with my arms raised Nd up on tippy-toes. Don't obsess over the height you want to be, accept who you are along with the height you have grown to become.

6'4"

I guess I'm satisfied with my height. I'm typically the tallest one in a group, but I've never really thought much about it. Can't change it, anyway, so.....
