I've always been attracted to tall, somewhat lean men

I've been attracted to a wide variety of body types. DH is instantly smitten when he sees any woman over 6'.

Sorry about the headache, Barb. I rarely get them. I don't know how I would cope with constant pain. I'd surely be meaner.

There is no morning kindergarten at the school my mom works at today. The kids are going to be so disappointed to miss Mom's last day of work.

Daniel, you could create a custom friends group (Live Journal > Friends > Manage Custom Friends Groups). If you want to do a quick exclusionary filter, move everyone on your flist into the friends group en masse then go back and move Captain Chatty back to the "not in group" list. When you go to your friends page, there should be a little drop down menu in the navigation bar. Just select the filter you want, and go from there.

I use mine to strip communities from my flist if I don't have time to read everything.

Another way to strip communities from your flist view is by adding "?show=p" (without the quotes) to the end of your flist URL, like so: stephl.livejournal.com/friends?show=p.

Barb, I hope you get some relief soon.

As for actual numbers, I'm 5'6", Daniel is 6'1". The shortest guy I dated was 5'10, the tallest was 6'5".

I think I may have wanted to say more, but the gronk, it burns.

Barb - ugh. Hope you can get some relief soon.

I'm extraordinary.

this is true. I will testify to it.

I was very amused by David's "Nutty and flea are tall" - Nutty is 5'6" and I am 5'11" which are very different to my mind. Nutty walks tall, though. Like a gunslinger.

mr. flea is 6'6" so even though I am quite tall for a woman we still have a 7 inch differential. He had dated short women but was pleasantly surprised to date "an alien from planet long" (as he once called me). I don't think I've ever dated a man more than an inch or two shorter than me, but then, I wasn't much of a dater and met mr. flea at 23.

I'm 5'8"ish and Tom is 6'1", so we are pretty close but he is still a nice bit taller than me, which I like very much.

Anne! We got your fruitcake- yum! Thanks!

As a short guy, I really don't like you tall guys stealing up all the short women, especially since tall women typically aren't too fond of dating short men. And yes, I am super over-generalizing. But it is morning. It is FREEZING. And there is gronk. Speaking of, the problem with adding an extra blanket to the pile, is come morning time, there really is *no* incentive to leave the cave of warm to the apartment of chill.

Nutty has a very erect carriage!

Upon meeting Plei for the first time, I seem to remember her exclaiming "OMG you're so short!" or something.

When Herself met you for the first time I nagged her for a description and she described you as "a sexy little crumpet."

I am 5'4" and KBD is 6'1". He didn't notice how short I was for a couple of weeks b/c I always went up on the balls of my feet to kiss him.

I've dated both boys and girls my height and girls slightly shorter, in a wide variety of body shapes.
