What are the worst things about being tall?

[White]

I'll start.

You can't do standing exercises that have your arms straight up. Because you'll hit the ceiling.

Yeah sometimes if I'm wearing my bicycle helmet, the fan will hit it.

Major disadvantage is that your gf will look very short next to you and unnatural relation

Tall guys need tall girlfriends, short guys need short gfs, skinny guys need skinny gfs, and fat guys need fat gfs.

There is train for every passenger

It's much easier to accidentally kick small people.

Toilets in old buildings, i always want to make 2 holes in the door. For my knee's. Sometimes 3, when i am constipating.

Shower heads, the short length of tubs, low toilets, small bathrooms, low counter tops, small cars, doorways, limited clothing, bath towels, amusement rides, short beds, and many more...

and then you start getting into the physical ailments of bad knees/back from having to bend more.

Oh yeah, bath tubs. Haven't had a house with one in so many years at this point.

1. Having long legs means I can't sit on the floor nor crouch for too long.

2. Vehicles and seating lacks leg space.

3. A king size blanket does not cover my body, I need a super king.

Being accused of liking shotcon media sucks. Just because shorter, younger guy with taller woman is really adorable, and you wish you had a partner you could sit next to and tenderly lean into without having to lean down, doesn't make you a perv.

Plane trips are the worst. I got blood rushes to the head when standing up quite a lot when I was younger, and I've been getting more paranoid about thrombosis and clots and whatnot as I'm getting older.

And too-short blankets suck too.

i am normal average lenght for a dutch man (1.90m) (6 feet 3 inch)

and i would not mind being 10cm talller.

but ok downsides :
*when buyinh clothing, cars, furniture even a kitchen.. it always hurts you back.
*
stuff is made for an international market and that meand for people upto 1.80m max..
this means i can nevee buy cheap clothes or ikea stuff or a premade kitchen but hace to go for custom made or more local (often german) brands that cost a fortune..
**
sitting in a seat in a train or plane always hurts and has way to little legspace and in a car.. every hump my head hits a cars roof..

i like strong and tall woman.
i not want them to be more than 10cm shorter than me (1.80m mimimal) but love it if they are equal my height... even a little (5-10cm taller than me woulf be fine..)
that quite limits me to dutch girls globally as any other nationalies woman are basicly midgets vs to me... that feels like walking with your daughter not your wife..

My uncle is 6'8" and he has to duck slightly through a lot of doorways. I never hear him complain but I can't imagine it's enjoyable.

Take a train in asian countries and you'll find out.

[skOsH♥]

I don't know. I'm not tall.

But I agree with sheets or blankets bring too short sometimes...and it sucks.

even if not made for midgets half my height those seem like a nightmare..

i like to never have anybody closer to me than a streched armlenghth.. and when a train is packed here thats what happening.. people just wont move closer together even if some will have to wait thanks to that for the next thrain.
(no worry next train is 10-15minutes after this one in dutch public transport)

but in asia they ram those unwashed unhygienic masses not just close by actually touching you.. even having people push more in before departure..
i never would want to suffer trough that..

i would be wearing like a rond hoop with a 1.5m diameter in asia with electric shockwire attached.. to keep people away.. and at a more nornal distance:p

Sure I'm tall, but look how WIDE I am... (just kidding)

Buying taller clothes is tricky because the designers are regular size people and don't know how the extra material should be placed/used. Shoes have to be just a tad stronger or they disintegrate faster. Also gotta eat more or risk losing heat when its cold out. More skin surface area doesn't mean more hairs, just that the hairs you have are further apart(by millimeters or less but it makes a difference)
Anyway just my 34 cents.
