I didn't go through puberty until I was 17... medication delayed it, but I did hit 6' tall when I was 14 or so.
I do agree about the chemicals in foods though...if I ever have children I can already see myself as being super paranoid about food.
I too hit this height of 6' and 1/2" when I was 14 years old. My mom is 5'11", though, and her brothers were both 6'7". It's just genetic. I am the only one of four girls who grew to be as tall/taller than our mother, though. The other three are only 5'7", 5'8", and 5'9". My ex husband is 6'4", but our daughter is only 5'7".
Not intimidated, just not attracted to tall or big women.
Before I was married, I dated a few women who were taller than me. I'm 5'7" and I dated one woman who was over 6 feet tall. Her exact height escapes me. This woman was of African American descent and between being much taller than I and inter-racial, she was a bit sensitive to be out in public with me. I thought a few weeks in and she would be used to it, but not so.
Another woman I dated was a nurse, she was about 6 feet tall. She was a very nice person and really seemed to enjoy playing up her size advantage over me. I liked it too.
Both of these women packed some meat on their frames, and I thought they were stunning.
Most other women that I expressed an interest and who were taller than me politely (and sometimes not so politely) declined.
I don't understand how a woman doesn't look like a woman due to a few more inches than average. I just don't. And neither does every male in my life that has scratched his head at this comment.
Concepts of beauty do vary. That is good because there needs to be people with different tastes so as everyone can be happy. Also, a few more inches than average would be 5'7"-5'8". That is still a good height for a girl. 6'0" though, that is getting kind of weird and side show freaky. That is kind of like men with midget fetishes. You know what I think when I see a sasquach woman? Tranny.

You know what I think when I read posts like this? Ate too many lead paint chips as a child.
Ever had your azz kicked by a six-foot-tall woman? I'll come see you in your dreams, Sweetie!
5th grade is AVERAGE these days for onset of puberty? When I was in school, it was 7th grade. One girl developed in 6th grade, and was very self-conscious about it, she was kind of a freak. I wonder if this early onset of puberty in girls is related to hidden estrogens in the food we eat, and in chemicals that package the food.
I think it's probably pretty likely. My mom does 4th grade, and they've actually had to move "the health/sex Ed talk," where they split up the girls and boys and discuss puberty issues, because so many of the girls are developing to the point where bras are starting to be worn and first periods are occurring. For me, even though I hit my final growth spurt at age 11, I was in 7th grade and almost 13 when I started menstruating. But even that onset is slightly earlier with increasing frequency, now. I work with developmentally disabled kids, some of whom have to be taught to see to their own hygiene, and I have 11-year olds who are hitting puberty. Again, this is kids with developmental delays, and they're still hitting it earlier.

I can tell you that in the 5th grade, my music teacher pulled me aside from the rest of the class to tell me that my voice was changing, and by the 6th grade I was growing full beards.

You must think Supermodels are trannies and side show freaky then. Gotcha
