Following on from the height and weight thread, there seem to be a lot of 6 footers on here, myself included. There's no poll on the other thread, so i thought i'd do one on here just to see...

I find this thread very shortist, just because we're under 5"10 doesnt mean we arent real people too, you're just jealous because we have a one in seven chance of landing a role in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfes.

Come on shorties, if we all get on eachothers shoulders the top one can give these tall arses a punch to the kneecap, that'll learn them.

Im going to start a list of notable shortarses through history, starting with Napolean, he was cool.

5'7", but as a woman that's not short, probably more of an average height! Your poll is biased towards men!

See, we're not completely useless, I have my hair cut into a flat top for that very purpose!!

Anyway, Ill ignore the shortist comments and continue with my notable shortarses list:

Um, Prince Naseem? bugger, maybe Tom Cruise? okay, it's not going well, Hitler? Actually, you know short man syndrome, the list so far definitely supports that theory, we suck frown

Claire, help us out here will you, we dont need women of 5"7, you should only be about 5"2, sort it out.

Nice one, that's better, no one likes a show off like some of "over 6ft" freaks.

And just thought of another notable, Mini Me

I like being compact. 1) Less of me to hit. 2) Clothes are not hard to find in my size. 3) Yoofs don't pick on you as a trophy attack (or whatever they call it when they go for big blokes just to prove themselves).

I've never really had the trophy attack thing. I know others who have though. Maybe I drink in the right (and therefore wrong) areas or just don't enough like a trophy being < 20 stone wink ?

I think your chances of landing a major part in a film are somewhat restricted if you can't even spell the name of said movie correctly! wink
