How tall is too tall?

lukesmom

Just wondering how tall is too tall for a woman?? I'm 5 foot 8 inches in height and cannot wear heels even though id love to. All the shoes I love are generally at least 3-4 inches high. So I have to wear boring flats. Inside me there's a short girl dying to get out. My husband is 6 feet tall. Would hate to be taller than him in heels. How tall is too tall?? I think 5 foot 5 would be perfect.

Why didn't you marry a taller man then?

How tall is a piece of tall?

Cut your feet off. Makes you shorter and saves you money on new shoes.

My friend is 6ft 4 and she wears heels, it's not something you can really control you know

Mint Sauce

Once they are taller than me.

I'm 6 foot tall. I wear heels out sometimes. If I like it and it looks good, who cares how tall I am in them? I love being tall, hated it when I was younger but I've embraced it now.

Never really got the notion that a woman has to be smaller than her partner.

I'm the same height and wear heels all the time. My OH is the same height as me and neither of us are bothered by it. I'm really not getting your statement that you cant wear heels as you are too tall

What's so bad about wearing heels and being taller? I've never heard a man saying "I don't like that woman, she's too tall".

I'm 5'11 and wear heels all the time, used to be conscious about it when I was younger but nothing I can do about it so may as well embrace it! Makes my legs look freakishly long but hey all good

I'm 5' 5" and would love to be your height.

Happy enough with my height but a few more inches would be cool. Why couldn't you wear heels? I don't think some taller women realise how striking they are because they're too busy worrying about their height. Taller women look fantastic in heels. Not a heel-wearer meself but I do think they look great on other women of all sizes and heights.

No such thing as a woman that's too tall. Variety is the spice of life.

At 5ft 2 I don't feel your pain. Even in heels I'm still a shorty. Walk tall.

Talib Fiasco

I'm 6"2 so any girl in heels who is still a decent bit smaller than me is perfect. I don't care if she's tiny but 5"1/2 is a good screening point.

super_furry

9ft or so.

Because when I met him I was shorter. I'm about 2 inches taller now. And I fell in love with him that's why I married him. I wasn't even remotely thinking about height.

I just think it looks strange. I know a guy he's about 5 foot 7 and his gf is at least 6 foot and it just looks wrong to me. Fair play to them and all but I couldn't do it.

When I've worn heels everyone looked so much smaller than me especially my friends they are all tiny.

Its all in your head so, honestly I wear four inch heels a lot in work and don't give it a second thought. If the oh and I are going somewhere dressy I wear heels too

The Backwards Man

Too tall for what?

The lowest railway bridges are usually over 12 feet so I guess over that.

Are you sure they weren't just far away?

Indeed, I don't get the obsession some women have over height - either theirs or that of the guy they're with.

As long as there's a spark and ye get on that's what matters - besides, we're all the same height lying down

On the very rare occasion my wife wears very high heels she's taller than me and I really like it.

It's the different aspect I suppose.

kstand

I'm 6 3" and my wife is about 5 foot 5 or 6. Small beside me in flip flops but i met her in heels and then she often wore heels after that and that was fine. I'd love to have met someone 5 10" or even 6ft. But no regrets. What she doesn't have in height she more than makes up for in spirit and personality.

--LOS--

I'm the same height as you OP, you're hardly freakishly tall, do you not like being tall? Maybe you should move to the Netherlands you won't feel so tall

and width. Don't forget width.

Rubberlegs

I'm barely scraping 5ft, OH is about 6ft 2'. I don't mind bein a short arse, only it's a nuisance getting jeans to fit. I sometimes wish I was taller, and elegant, and looked good whatever I wore, but too late for that now!

TeddyTedson

I'm 6'2. No idea about girth though.

maths fail
