Short: pros: none

Pros of being tall: Men instinctively respect you, and women instinctively want you to plow them.
Pros of being short: Maybe you might be so insecure you develop a Napoleon/Saban complex and become a legendary leader of men.
Cons of being tall: People always want you to be on their basketball team.
Cons of being short: No one takes you seriously as a human being.

Short people make excellent miners and jockeys. All I got.

If you're short, it's usually easier to get cut up from working out. Other than that, I'm not sure there are any. Maybe some Napoleons will chime in.

tall people are looked upon as leadership material, up to 6 4" and then it is less of a plus up to 6 6". then its a negative to be more than 6 7".
women prefer taller guys.

Being a backseat passenger in a car full of tall people is unpleasant.

What's the ceiling for short and what's the floor for tall?
Posted on 5/8/16 at 6:57 pm to TheIndulger
I know for tall...
Pros: Can see over everyone and is easy to find
Cons: Door frames and ceiling fans.
Source: the tall tuba players in Tiget Band a few years ago. 7'2" guy ended up joining the basketball team for a bit anyway, and I still see the 6'10" guy every now and then.

Taller people probably have shorter life expectancies.

It's funny how everyone is rating pros and cons only for men. For women, being short can be a great thing. Men like shorties, they're smaller and so can be more fun in the sack. Ask a 6'6" woman about her dating prospects vs. a 5'0" woman.
Short people of either sex at least don't feel cramped on an airplane.

being tall sucks,Im 6'7
1.I wanted a sports car, the fit is so tight, I had to pass.
2. Getting shoes is a pain,im sure not at foot locker, but nice dress shoes you find one you like and order it.
3.constantly getting asked how tall you are, mostly old women and children, im not shaquille oneal, its annoying, im not circus freak tall, but I dread going to a mall bc i know some dipshite wants a pic or to comment about my height. Always wanting to know if i played basketball.
4.hotels suck, the beds are small and the showerheads are always too low
5.Flying sucks, even first class, the cabins are too short.
I have plenty more, but i wish i were 5'10 and normal bc im in my 30s and im not in the NBA making money bc im tall so at this juncture, give me 5'10, capable of driving a sportscar and being able to walk through a mall unnoticed and go home with a pair of shoes i just bought

That sounds real scientific.

As a short (5'2") woman, this is kind of true. I do sometimes get tired of being the "cute" one, and a lot of people seem to think short women are helpless. It's funny when young guys tell me "Let me get that for you babe", when I'm probably old enough to be their mom.
Con: I sometimes DO need help, like reaching stuff off the top shelf of the grocery store without finding a mop to knock it down.
(And I HATE admitting that or asking for help!)Posted on 5/8/16 at 7:21 pm to foshizzle
