Do you consider yourself tall or short?

How tall are the other members of PC?

I'm 5'4". It makes me feel like kind of a midget considering most of my friends are at least 4 inches taller than me.

I'm 14 years old and I'm 5'9. :D

I thank good diets and working out for that~

Anyways, I don't really care, unless if a guy wants a stare-off against me, then I really want to be as intimidating as possible. However, we eventually crack up at how stupid we're being. So, my height doesn't really affect me or others. Lol.

Somewhere between 5ft 6 and 5ft 8, I haven't measured in a while, I just know all my friends are taller than me. It doesn't affect me as such but i'm obviously less intimidating being a 16 year old that's the size of a 13 year old lol.

Short. I'm 5"01. . >.> Everyone in my school towers over me and I always feel short. It doesn't affect me in any other way rather than just the difficulties with high places. That's all. No one makes fun of me, but people 'poke fun at' me, and they're usually my friends. I laugh about it since it's funny and I wouldn't have it any other way. =P

Well, I'm 6'3. People have always said that since I was a kid, I was always too high for my age xD. And it only affects me in many good ways. =D

I think I'm around 5'7" but I haven't checked in forever. I'm taller than most of the people I live with, 'cept one of my brothers. Doesn't really effect me at all, though.

5"6 or 5"7. I can't remember which.
I'm taller than most of my female friends, and I always have been. Most of my guy friends are taller than me now.
I hated my height back in middleschool, but now I really don't care.

I'm 15 and only 5'6. Growth spurts don't like me. T-T I should grow 7 inches in the next year, according to my doctor. I'm supposed to be 6'1 - 6'2

It effects me greatly considering I'm pretty much the shortest boy in my grade. No one makes fun of me though, except for when me and my friends joke around. I think it's also because last year I beat the snot out of the supposed "toughest guy in school". >=D I got a 5 day suspension, though, but oh man it was so worth it.

That's not too bad, i've been pretty much the same height since I was 14 so I feel your pain. Though i've never been the shortest in my year at school, i've been down there among them.

How tall are your parents? That's usually a pretty good indication of how tall you'll end up. My mum's like 5ft nothing (seriously XD), dad's about 5'10 I think, so I doubt i'll grow much more but you never know.

Off topic: Props for beating up the tough guy haha =D

I'm 5'11", maybe a tiny bit taller.

Being an average height doesn't really affect me one way or the other. My mom's 5', so she makes me reach things that are too high for her sometimes, which is mildly inconvenient, but other than that, I don't really care. XD

My mom is my height (5'6) and my dad is 6'1. My grandfather was 6'3, and my grandmother was 5'5. So I guess I'm gonna be pretty tall. =D

I'm pretty sure he wasn't being serious :/

My mom is my height (5'6) and my dad is 6'1. My grandfather was 6'3, and my grandmother was 5'5. So I guess I'm gonna be pretty tall. =D
If you've passed your mum's height already i'd put good money on you hitting at least 6ft. Especially with your dad and grandad being over 6ft themselves. You're lucky, my grandparents are all short arses too XD

I am 6'4" tall, and I am one of the tallest in the school... I am not kidding. My mom is 5'3" tall, my dad is 6'5" tall. I've only seen two people taller then me in school, but that's about it. But I really don't care for my height... except for the ability to get things from pretty high up. But other then that, I really don't care.

Luckily, for all of you, I got my physical the other day, so I know exactly what my height is.

I'm 5"4, fourteen years old, and I don't really give a crap. My biological father was 5"5 and my mother is 5"2, so I'm already almost past my dad. Everyone is my family is short except for my baby sister (she's 4"3, which is... Tall for a five year old, lol. She should thank my stepfather (thats her real dad). ) and my great-grandfather who was exactly 6"0.
