And yes I am happy with my height.
It is a gruesome story how I came to be tall; I was once a little boy, and then I grew some. Actually in high school I was very unathletic and very poor at sports, especially team sports. So I always hated it very much when somebody would ask me if I played basketball. I still have never come to like or enjoy team sports, but I started running to be in shape when I was in college, and I am still doing that, even at age 58. I have been a member of the San Diego chapter of the Tall Club since 1991, and have enjoyed social activities with them. The Tall Club has a little over 50 chapters in different cities, and the height requirements are 6'2" for men and 5'10" for women. The San Diego chapter was very active in the mid 1990's, but has been relatively inactive in recent years. I love dancing with tall women, particularly slow dancing. |

Why do you think the tall club became inactive? |

Normal ebb and flow of interest |
