Whenever I tell someone that I wish i was shorter, they are always taken a back(being masculine presenting). I am just over 6 ft, in my country, that’s a bit above average height. Its not like I am a gaint or anything but I am always aware how intimidating I look. Also, the country where I live doesn’t feel like it build for people my size. Mini-van for transportation that squish my knees, ceiling that are a bit too low for my taste, showers space that’s too small.

But also, I feel like a bumbling idiot (I suspect I have Dysprixa) and hate standing out so much. I may have Body dysmorphia. Its like how I would like to be seen and how I feel, are the exact opposite to how I seen. I feel small, soft, in a relationship, I would prefer to take on the "feminine " role. I feel nothing like a man.

Anyone else relates to this.

    I’m 6’1", it’s right about the perfect height for a guy.

    I would say that I do have fairly long legs, so there’s a lot of cars that I am not comfortable in, and cheap plane rides are generally misery.

    But other than that, it’s not like I’m so tall that I’m bumping my head on things all of the time, and anyone who is so picky about height that they wouldn’t date me for being 6’1" is the kind of person I wouldn’t want to date, so that works out as well.
