I'm pretty short for a guy 5' 5.5" (without shoes).

 

[pakbabydoll]

5'3" without shoes.

 

[shemarty]

I'm 5'1"

I stopped growing back in 6th grade or something...

I shadowed a cardiovascular surgeon who needed a stool (i am not sure if this is the right spelling) to step on to do surgery. He was the nicest physician I have ever met who went a step further in terms of politeness.

 

[mints of b]

I know I wouldn't want a short doctor.

 

[loh]

6'5". Hard for me to fit in some places...

 

[CGuy07]

Only 5'3" here...

 

[Tropicana100]

my pediatrician was a 5' 6" Caucasian male. was I was a kid, he told me that i'd surpass his height some day. i had such high hopes! now i'm still 1/2 an inch shorter.

 

[anybutpretty]

I'm 4'10.5". And I still wear flats with a suit. I think it doesn't matter much, but I'm a girl, too.

My dad is 5'1". I think he makes up for it by wearing a heavy-ish beard to look bigger?

*shrug*

 

[Sondra]

5 even & I were flats too!

You should let one of these short students ride around on you, then you can be Dr. Master Blaster.

Don't worry, being short as a chick is more than fine. It's kind of a turn on, at least to me (I'm 6'2" and am not into taller chicks).👍

I'd take being a pervert over an uptight, oversensitive prude.🙄

To each his own (coming from a 5'1 chick!)😀

white guys are too damn tall. whenever i go to the bathroom at a cubs game im surrounded by a horde of 6-5 white guys, so i can never see an empty spot by the troughs. by the way the majority of cubs fans are white suburbanite yuppies, or at least the ones who go to the games, with them outnumbering minority fans at least 5 to 1, maybe just slightly better than red sox fans.

you don't have good odds of catching a ball either. that sucks man.

Shorties.

well im 5-9 so im not debilitatingly short, but youre right, ive never caught a foul ball or even got close to one, after going to about 25 games in my lifetime. i cant afford the nice tickets at wrigley, several of which are bought by private ticket vendors, some that are owned by the cubs themselves, just so that they can price-gauge even further. yeah i dont know why im still a fan.

 

[desijigga]

I'm both mentally and vertically short...


Bob Kelso on Scrubs is short and he is the chief of Medicine. Short guys get top executive positions and are power hungry lunatics. Guys once we get that rich its our wallet size that matters not our height. Muahahhaha I can't wait to be a short, controlling, power driven LUNE......😀😀

If your one-word comment had been amusing and full of wit, you'd be correct.

Easy buddy, I'll take care of the humor here. Your job is to misinterpret it.

Hahahaha.

Wait; you were being funny there, right? I can't tell, I guess I'm just misinterpreting your genius.

BTW, feel free to PM me if you want to keep puffing your e-chest out, tough guy; I'm done hijacking orange juice man's thread.

 

[RedSHIFT]

6'0, it's the perfect height

it's okay, you won't be the shortest guy

 

[rowerlauren]

Maybe for guys...
As a 6'0" female, I argue that guys should be at least 6'2".

 

[doomknight]

good thing many models are actually 5'10" or 5'11" 🙂

 

[Tyc00nman]

holy crap lauren. you are huge.

im 6'1.5". i was 2 guard in college. so in that case, i was short.

i can't date anything under 5'5. creeps me out. its like having my very own personal oompa loompa. no offense shorties.

for the record, there was a philipino kid in hs that was dunking at 5'8". Im talking dunking in lane during games. Not during practice when he was juiced. Kid got up.

 

[katarzyna]

5"2.5 ??? here idk, i haven't measured my height in a long while.



yeah, i noticed, some tall guys 6"0 and up like short girls.

what are the disadvantages of being a short, medical student/resident/physician?

 

[katarzyna]

good thing many models are actually 5'10" or 5'11" 🙂

for girls, if you want to do couture modeling, you must be at least 5"8 (if you're 14-15, if youre 16 and up, you must be taller than that.) they've been changing standards, they now think 5"8 is too short to be a model. (exceptions of course the older much huge ones like kate moss).

for men (couture), you must be at least 6"0 tall.

 

[rowerlauren]

holy crap lauren. you are huge.

Haha... well I'm a rower so height gives me greater leverage and strength.

I have nothing against shorties, just don't happen to be one.

Any "thing?" 🙂

I'm a homonculus (except that I'm a girl.) Barely 5'2". The good thing about being short is...there is no good thing.

 

[chad5871]

I'm 6'4", but I don't let height be a deciding factor when dating people. I've dated people on the shorter end of things (5'2"), and the much taller side too (one girl I dated was 6'1" without heels! 😱)

 

[Alfred E Newman]

Awesome movie reference. I think the "Master Blaster" went over a lot of people's heads.

You should let one of these short students ride around on you, then you can be Dr. Master Blaster.

 

[TehDoc]

it's a good thing this thread is almost a year old.

 

[WinterLights]

6"2', maybe taller. Haven't had my height measured in a while. I notice that there are a lot of short pre-meds.

Must be due to poor nutrition, high caffeine consumption, and lack of sleep.

Or maybe their mental energies are spent on increasing other numerical statistics instead?

 

[Californian]

im 5'11 without shoes with shoes 6ft!!

 

[p30doc]

6'4" here and it is not always a blessing, airport seats, lecture hall seating etc is generally not designed for people with long legs!😡

Are you saying you could make yourself taller by sheer force of mind, if you weren't so busy being smart?

Clearly you are a better man/woman than me.

 

[BoredMD]

I'm about 5'5", but usually wear heels. 😀

 

[searun]

6"2' and 180 lbs. Works for me.

Actually, that was my attempt at humor.

So with heels, you're probably around 5'8"? Lol.
