6 feet. Some may tell you that I'm a fraction of an inch under, but they are heretics and liars. Do not listen to them.

Pfft. With the right haircut you could've broken 6'.

Why do that?

I am used to dancing with small chicks.
I have trouble dancing with girls 5'6" and taller.

I have no qualms about dancing with taller people. Actually, I am pretty used to. If you do care about dancing with too tall partners, then you do not know to dance, or are at an extremely beginner level. In certain dances, it is required that the men enjoy a substancial advantage in height relative to the woman.

So, I think you just need to practice more with your tall partner until the height difference stops being a a nuisance.

I have a feeling that most of the people on this thread are lying because almost half of the posters say they are over 6 feet tall.

I'm exactly 1.92 m, and the internet tells me thats 6.299212598425197 Feet, or 6.3 feet for short.

The weird thing is - I'm currently in a region where that is average height - there are quite a few people here, even some women who are way taller then me.

Also, I always wanted to know- why don't you yankees use the metric system? And which one is used in Canada?

You vore.

Beware of stomping, then. I'd love to be 50 ft. tall, of course. Actually, just being 10 cm taller would be great.
