Tall vs too tall

[bbadmarc]

My older brother is 6'7 and he hates it. Everywhere we go ppl stare and he hates it. Im 17 and in the middle of a spurt. I'm 6'3 now and hope it stops soon. Is there such thing as a perfect height for guys?

You're certainly above average for your age. Average height for 17 year olds is like between 5'4 and 5'8. But average height does not imply perfect height. It all depends on your physical capacity (such as your heart strength) to support your height. So as long as everything is in proportion, there's no such thing as too tall.

If you're uncomfortable with being so tall maybe speak to your doctor. There is medication that can slow down you growth.

No, but that is tall

dont feel bad about it we are all unique in our own ways and you can probably find an advantage to being that tall lol

no not really a perfect height, but im like 5'11 , and at times feel short and small compaired to others around me, but then i just had to realize, i am perfectly fine for who i am, i am unique , and that's what makes us an individual person. i do envy your height, i always want to be taller than i am , but then again, i wouldn't be me if i were.

I'm only 5 feet and 5 inches tall haha, it's not a big deal for me. I'm perfectly okay with it. I'd rather be a little on the shorter side than extremely tall myself.

well I'm about 5' 11" and being 13, i only know 2 people as tall as me. but its kinda fun how we can look over the crowed.

Being tall is awesome! I don't know why anyone would want to be shorter!(no offence anyone haha) I'm 6'4-5" and I LOVE it!!!

You shluld love being tall a lot of women like tall men sign of masculinty and you can reach high places and dunk in basketball but you should love being you and embrace what you have cause people always want opposite of what they have :D

Im only 5' 10'' 16 so I envy your height. I would prefer about 5 inches to top me off.

One of my friends is 6'8" and he used to be self conscious about it but he digs it now. When people make jokes about his height he says "I'm proportional". That usually shuts people up after they think about it. (I don't know if he is or not.)

i am only 15 and 6'2 and still growing. but surprisingly, even though i am huge(height and body size wise), i am a full on ninja if i want to be. If people complain about my height, well, in short, i don't care. To me, there is no such thing as a perfect height. Just see how tall you become and make the most of it.
