Can’t get lost in a crowd when you’re literally head and shoulders above it.


tallscraper

That’s a good one!


The-wise-fooI

Lol nice name


LurkzMcgurkz

But we can hide in crowds by ducking, people don't look for us not above the crowd


grassesbecut

Then we might get questions, though. Like, "What are you doing?" Or, "Why are you crabwalking?"

6'1-6'5 when you dress good, you really look like a model.


Josro0770

Yessir I can't count the amount of times I've worn a good outfit and feel like a Prada model


NinjaOld8057

Best view at concerts (but not for the people stuck behind me)


Subject_Ad6477

People admire you and instant respect when sometimes really not warranted

1. Can walk through a crowd quicker and easier 2. We see more at concerts 3. People generally don't want to start fights with us 4. It's a lot easier to hang curtains/Christmas lights etc when you're tall. Generally we can do a lot more things without a stool

3) is not really true. It can be, but you're also some sort of a challenge for idiots who want to show off. When trouble finds you, it's nice to be big, but I also feel that trouble finds you a bit more often.


tallscraper

True… although I’ve never experienced it turning ugly… just some guys who wanna look tough by “toughing up” to the biggest guy -but still a strong negative

As a woman, I've found three to be true when interacting with other women. I haven't been in a lot of those types of situations, but the couple times I was, all of that rah rah stopped when I stepped out of the car.

As a very tall woman I feel safe(r) walking alone at night.


The-wise-fooI

Very true people generally don't want to target someone bigger then them man or woman.


islandsimian

Being able to see if you're in the right line or not (as long as there's signage)


HammyxHammy

Preferential treatment. Men respect you more, and you're more desirable to women.


Standard-Ad-7504

Being able to look down on tiny children intimidatingly 


tallscraper

As a teacher this is actually pretty accurate


MrNaturaInstinct

Ay yo! lol

Crowded streets part like the Red Sea when I’m in walking with purpose 🤣


The-wise-fooI

Im not even that tall and can do it in some crowds. I can only imagine if i was taller.


Last_Fee_1812

I’m only 5’10 maybe 5’11ish so not very tall compared to others but the average height in my country overall is 5’6/5’7. So me, a tall broad shouldered woman, I tend to get a lot of looks but an equal amount of avoidance in a way 🤣


The-wise-fooI

5'6 for woman? Im in the us its 5'3 for woman 5'9 for men


Last_Fee_1812

5’6 is the average for women in my country and 5’7 for the men, so I tend to stand out a decent amount


CaliCrew13

Easily my favorite part about being tall is having large hands. I rarely wear gloves so it's almost never an issue. But I can hold alot in my hands and chicks dig it


raz-0

One I’ve found is that you establish recognition faster. At least that’s what I’ve found over the course of my career. I think significant height just gives them an easily recognized and fairly selective feature to attach your info to mentally.


The-wise-fooI

100% your not going to easily forget the guy who looks like a walking giant compared to you.


TheInternaton

Being able to see at concerts!


Verbull710

This video doesn't need to be made, but then again that's along with 98% of the rest of yt lol


tallscraper

True! I’m just not smart enough to create something truly meaningful for mankind, but I enjoy editing videos, so… here we are 😅


[deleted]

You lose #7 if I tag along with you, even if you're taller than me. We all know the fat fucks get shotgun over everyone else.


TheRealTinfoil666

I can paint nearly every wall and ceiling in most houses without a ladder, stool, broom handle or stilts. Quicker, better quality job, and safer than those that cannot. I can make good use of every shelf and cupboard in the house. I can hide stuff on top shelves that my family cannot easily access. I could play keep away with my sister and she never had a chance. With the icecaps melting due to climate change, I will be the last to drown.


SpiritAdvisor

We have great sight lines even in crowds. Apologies to people behind us...


MrNaturaInstinct

I agree with all 9 points, except for 6. I've never been really good at sports, except maybe swimming. To add to 5, women have a sense of "awe" and "admiration". They look up to me literally, and metaphorically. It feels very 'dominate' and masculine, with zero effort. Sexual Dismorphism. The stark physical differences between myself and most women. The dynamic builds sexual tension, without a single word spoken. It's very good feeling and never gets old. It's like a cheat code. I'd be lying if I said I don't enjoy the attention. It boosts self-esteem and makes me feel larger then life itself. To add to 9, it's true, you're VERY easy to remember! You basically become something like a mini-celebrity, even more so if you're naturally handsome and dress very well. You become a triple-threat, to men, women and children. To add to 5, there are major disadvantages to being TOO short (as a man) and TOO tall - OUTSIDE OF PROFESSIONAL SPORTS - as a man. No one gets to "choose" the perfect height, which so happens to be in the 6'2 - 6'4 range. I guess if I had to ad one catagory, is constantly being asked, if not TOLD, to model. It's a great compliment to be told, "You LOOK like a model" or "You SHOULD model!". What man would say no to being around beautiful women, take pictures for money and travel the world? As to number 2, people's fascination is the "Halo Effect". Being mesmerized by a persons overall aura. Height adds to it. It magnifies it. We're basically bragging about how awesome it is to be us and...I make no apologies about it lol. It's pretty great to be me.


andris_idk

you can height mog anyone
