I hate it, no matter where i go, wherever i am, people look at me and say " look how tall he is", people laugh on my height, some people ask me to give em some inches from my height. I don't have any choice in clothes and shoes, because my size is not available most of the time, my head bumps into doors and other things all the time. Sometimes i feel like giant when people stare at me or my friends make fun of my height. So is it me or every tall person face similar problems?

im 6'4 b/w.

Is 6'4" (193 cm) actually considered too tall? I would think that 180..195 falls into the "normal" range (for men)

Well, I'm 5'8" (sub 180 cm)... and my spine's f*cked up so I appear even shorter. I could do with a bit more. Or medical breakthrough spine straightening.
For now I think I'll get high-heels and afro haircut

In India, it is

North Indians are taller, but in my city 6'4 is still too tall.

I've normal eye sight, but can't read the white text on the light gray backround, so I'll assume it's some sort of special text that only tall people can see....

I'm 6'4" as well and it's not terribly common that people mention it. When I was younger people would mention it fairly often, but now not so much. Never have any issues finding clothes though.

Is there anywhere in the world where the average height is quite short? I want to move there to feel more important

North Korea. It has a very short average height due to famine which has stunted their growth.

Man, im moving to US thn, very limited choice if you are 6+. Specially in shoes, most of the time, shops have only 1 model, with weird colors or just plain white.

I'm around 6'2" or 6'3" depending on if I'm standing up straight, and I have a couple friends that are taller than me (like 6'4" to 6'7" ish). Now that I'm older, it's rare that anyone mentions my height. However, if I see someone that's taller than me, and makes me feel short, I may say something lol.

It depends on area where you live, Only mature girls like my height, Girls of my age or younger than me avoid tall people.

Must be a cultural thing. Here, women definitely tend to prefer taller guys. Then again, I'm the opposite. I tend to shy away from tall girls. Just something about them doesn't feel right lol. But I'm opening up (as long as she's not taller than me).

The tallest girl i have dated was 5'8. She was basketball player. I like tall girls, but not skinny ones.
