The only times I wish I was shorter is on airplanes because I have no legroom, or when I want to wear high heels and not tower over people ( although as I get older, I'm finding more and more I either don't want to wear heels because OUCH, or don't care care if I'm a giant :silly: ) Mrs. Lemon-Lime on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be/page/2#post-2720790 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 12:09:19 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2720790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My ideal would be 5'7" that way I would be tall, but not remarkably tall and still be able to wear regular clothes. Im only 5'2". psw27 on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be/page/2#post-2720776 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 11:42:55 +0000 psw27 2720776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I voted 5'7" - it just seems easier for clothes and would be nice to be a bit taller. I always feel so short.

I like being small. catgirl on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be/page/2#post-2720757 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 11:23:28 +0000 catgirl 2720757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'5" and like my height. I just wish my body was a little more proportional - I have a really long torso and fairly short legs. Regular tops always feel short but talls seem too long and I often have to buy short pants. snowjewelz on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be/page/2#post-2720742 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 10:58:58 +0000 snowjewelz 2720742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'1 and I would like to be 5'4... Merely to fit into clothes a little better and not have to hem or roll ALL my pants. periwinklebee on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be/page/2#post-2720735 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 10:48:27 +0000 periwinklebee 2720735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'9". My husband is just a tad shorter than me and it's really not bad in any way! I did get annoyed when our wedding photographer kept on trying to find ways to make him look taller than me, it doesn't bother us! As for pants, I was just complaining about that on the POAS thread a couple of days ago... arosebyany on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720727 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 10:36:42 +0000 arosebyany 2720727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I love my 5'4" self. DH is 5'11" so I feel like it's the perfect Height differential. Forgot to add: I feel like most things are made for somebody 5 and a half foot tall. Stove height, fridge, kitchen countertop height. Everytime I wear 4 to 6 inch heels, I feel like I'm straining mY back leaning over a countertop. newlypregnantlady on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720720 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 10:18:44 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2720720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'2 and my husband is a full foot taller than I am! I'd love to be way closer in height to him. Plus if I were taller it'd be easier to see in a crowd, drive a car, sit in a booth, buy pants that don't need to be hemmed, and reach things in the kitchen or grocery store! I'm always having to ask strangers to reach things for me. smocks on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720719 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 10:12:48 +0000 smocks 2720719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'10". I think I'd prefer to be an even 5'9" because my pants always seem to be an inch too short, or 5'11" because I really do love being a PRESENCE when I walk into a room. It used to make me self conscious when I was younger but I've definitely embraced it. winniebee on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720715 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 09:59:29 +0000 winniebee 2720715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'2 and would love to be 5'4 - but no taller b/c my husband is only 5'6!

Mostly because I'd love to wear higher heels without feeling like a giant.

They are usually so tight on my shoulders and up my crotch! 😝 I'm also 5'9 and find that WHBM jeans fit great! Most styles I order long but can also get away wth regular length. I'm also in between lengths. erinbaderin on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720633 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 07:41:00 +0000 erinbaderin 2720633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'8" and I wouldn't mind being a few inches shorter, especially right now when all the pants are ankle length. Mostly I'd like to be slightly shorter than my husband instead of slightly taller.

With heels I feel too tall. Its awkward around shorter guys (especially if you have to hug them). But I do like being tall especially in the business world. And I had a big advantage in a lot of sports growing up. Ideally I think 5'8" would be nice. Right on the average but tall line. skinnycow on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720620 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 07:25:26 +0000 skinnycow 2720620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'7" with really long legs and I have such a hard time finding work appropriate dresses! Ideally I'd be 5'5" so I could wear heels without feeling too tall. I'm mostly okay with my height though. lamariniere on "If you could choose, how tall would you be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-choose-how-tall-would-you-be#post-2720612 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 07:05:35 +0000 lamariniere 2720612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 5'4 and wouldn't mind 2-3 more inches. Someday, I'm going to be the shortest one in my family.

My whole life I've had people comment about how tall I am. I mean yes, I'm tall but not abnormally so. I've always wished I was I was petite. I think it goes hand in hand with struggling with weight - I've always felt enormous next to much more petite women. Plus, DH is only about 5'10, so I wouldn't mind a few more inches between us.

It's too tall for petites (particularly in the rise) but in regular sizes, my pants need to be hemmed. So I would either want to be 5'2" so I fit into petites or 5"7" so my pants don't need to be hemmed.

If I could choose though, I'd be a petite little dot so I picked 5'3.

Pants are easy, and I feel fairly average (and I'm good with average!).
