At 5 foot 11, I am taller than the majority of men in the UK, who stand at an average of 5’9. I have five sisters who are the same height as me, except one who is 5’8 – the tiddler of the family. Growing up, I towered over the boys. I have terrible posture from always slouching to the side, trying to make myself appear shorter.
Early on in my dating life, one of my sisters said to me that I mustn’t rule out short men. Not just because that would mean writing off well over half of the global male population, but because short men are great.
