Wow, you go off to work and miss six pages of hilarity! Well, I'm tall enough that my feet reach the ground and my head bumps more things than it should. I'm not the tallest one here, but I have yet to meet a lady who is taller, so it won't be an issue... if and when.

I'm 6'2 and on the rare occasion I come across a woman who is taller than me. I've entertained the idea, but I think the answer is no. It doesn't matter how attractive she is, the height is an issue. Something in me is just averse to it.

However, I'd date a woman my own height or who is somewhat shorter. An extreme in shortness is a turn off too though.

6,5? Do you all play basketball? haha I'm kidding!

My brother is 5,10 and is considered tall here in Texas. Funny.

I'm 5,3 and I'm the tallest one of my group of friends.
Really...I thought Texas was like a tall state? "tall" Texan is just more Texas bluster?

Out of all the things that could be a problem in a relationship... I can really care less how tall a woman is if God brings me in one again.

idk lol...it's just the saying everything is bigger in Texas! I assumed steaks, cattle, people, houses idk haha
Bigger doesn't mean taller. What's bigger an elephant or a giraffe? My point exactly.

Well I mean there are men over 6 feet and plenty of them.

But I am also in a predominately hispanic area, so most of the Mexican people here are under 6 feet. So maybe that's why I find tall guys rare.

The tall guys stand out here, but in a good way! :)

Is that all you ask, dear sister? :p ;) That's one of the most difficult attributes to attain.
No, brother Tintin, it's not hard!! It's easy and light. Resting in Jesus and not trying to be what the world expects. Just being set free! \:)/

Really? I'm finding surrendering everything to God to be one of the most difficult things I've ever done. It's a continuous journey of Have I given everything over to God? Oop. No. Bugger. And sure, I've wanted to belong, as do we all. But I've never been anything other than myself. With that has come a lot of rejection.

That was not my intention, sorry. I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about the people in Texas.
Yes, everyone says that everything is bigger in Texas but I always thought they meant we were bigger as in large people because we eat a lot of BBQ lol. I didn't think they meant height.

5'9 is around 175cm.


5 feet 9 inches

12 inches in a foot

12x5=60

60+9=69 inches

69 inches x 2.54 cm in 1 inch = 175.26 cm


I have to do math like this alot lol :)
