The Glade 4.0

....aaaaand that's why we don't generally discuss body issues with guys. They are SO clueless.
Coro, if I complain that 5'4" is too tall (and I have a legitimate complaint about the foot size thingy), then Kirra, at 5'2" feels better about herself. Duh!

Khross can you send a Doombot bodyguard to me? I have the location, since I threw my phone out the window at the chirping bird so I could get the exact GPS coordinates...which BTW worked..I got a 45 minute nap

One of the main reasons I'm still single is because I intimidate people in my heels. I'm 5''7 so I understand Sas' pain. Well that and aussie dudes are kinda short, all the tall ones are way too young, and all the good looking tall ones are gay.

Can't find good boots cause they are all too short, unless they are the really expensive ones sux.

Kirra, not only would I trade my height with you, I would also trade my hair with you in a split second. I hate my straight, no volume, can't curl it if I tried hair. I love your curls!!!

As for the carded thing, I still get picked up by early 20 guys thinking I'm in my teens >.< I keep telling them if I developped earlier, I could be their mother >.<

Yeah, that's probably part of my problem too with usually being single, my friends always tell me i'm kind of intimidating too, especially with my heels since most of my heels are 4"ish so i'm 6 feet tall with them on.

And yup, hard finding good tall boots too, "over the knee" boots are just under the knee on me :/

Don't feel bad...I've never worn a pair of over the knee boots...even most right under the knee boots don't fit me. I've always had muscular calves and they just don't fit in those dang skinny boots.
I love hearing tall women complain....it's like hearing women with DDs complain...we are always too hard on ourselves and think the other women have it so much better than we do. It's nice to hear that the perfect women have complaints as well.

Okay, I'm amused. LK seemed short to me, but she was barefoot most of the time I was there. I would have guessed under 5'4".

Sassy seemed taller than 5'8" but she was probably wearing heels, I didn't notice. Mostly I was looking at her eyes/face (but not exclusively).

I'm 6'0" even and rarely feel short. I have a small collection of friends that manage it, like my B-I-L, who at 6'5" and extremely skinny makes me feel short and fat.

My wife was 5'9" and mostly svelte. Meds put weight on her when she got sick and inactive.

My shortest girlfriend was 4'9", with a chip on her shoulder to make her seem as tall as the Statue of Liberty. Hispanic, fiery temper, I was too mellow for her. She whined about having to shop in the little girls section. My tallest girlfriend was an inch taller than me. German/Norwegian and if you think you have troubles shopping she had them quadrupled. She wore jeans, t-shirts and men's cowboy boots more often than not. She looked great in them too.

They were all before I met my wife, I really need to find a new girlfriend.

I have the opposite problem there with calves, I have slender calves so more often than not when I finally find a pair of boots in my size that I like they are too loose around them :/

Having large boobs is perfectly viable to complain about, my first girlfriend had an H cup (no that wasn't a typo), she had so many back problems, and even DD's will cause back problems, and while I wish I had a bit more than an A cup i'd rather have an A than a DD, B-C would be idea, though A has the no bra required advantage



That's entirely likely that I was wearing heels, I usually do.

Wow all the women in this thread are short. My wife is 5'11, the tallest girl I ever dated was 6'5". You all are very beautiful though from the pictures I have seen of you.
My wife is a fashion nut she pours over websites almost every evening shopping, and can spend hours at stores going over everything they have. Luckily she loves bargains so she really doesn't spend that much (plus its her money she can buy what she wants).

Those shoes reminds me of a purse she bought it has that fuzzy Mongolian lamb wool around it, I call it her pet since it looks like a small dog when it is sitting there.

I was just informed that we're not supposed to tell the pixies they're short.

Going with the theme, Micheal, I think you'd be "che", but I'd think it would be offensive to call someone of your character a name that is shared with that scum.

so, Khross...what makes shopping for short women fun?


And, for that matter, would a man EVER shop for a woman? Other than lingerie :p

I don't see why not. "Sure, honey, I'll pick up your new iPhone 4 on the way home from work today." "Hmm. Graphics cards on NewEgg. Add to cart, quantity: 2."

Dammit, Mookhow!

You get off on being being beat up by LK, don't you? Not that i'm judging...whatever floats your boat.

I hate clothes shopping, even for myself.

Oonagh wants to strangle me by the 10th, "Ok, we're done. Let's go!"

I can tolerate shoe shopping for her, though. Yeah. I'm one of those guys.

What woman is ever happy with what their man brings home for them in the manner of clothes. We don't have the curves that make things fit weird when they aren't just so.

T-Shirts, Jackets, usually safe, anything else, not so much, and forget about buying them shoes when they aren't there.

Well, how can you be happy when he brings home something that is huge on you..you think.."omg, he thinks I am fat". Or if it's too tight...you think "omg, he thinks I need to lose weight"


It really is a no win situation lol...better to just hand over the credit card and sit there as she models stuff

Actually, I've been asking for a new mop-head for at least two weeks now. A whole new mop would be fantastic. as would a new bottle of that spray cleany stuff and some dishwasher soap and a couple of sponges since we're out. Have fun shopping, dear, I'll see you when you get home!

My Dad was a kung fu ninja master at Christmas time. He had shoe, pants, and blouse sizes memorized for every female member of the family. He knew that **** like HVAC spec sheets. Actually, he knew clothing sizes for all the male members, too.
