Do people assume your more agressive because your tall?
All my life people have asumed im more agressive than a "normal" person and i really think that has somthing to do with being tall, as with those who know me well they say completely not as we all have moments lol and i wondered.

My mothers side all of the men are pretty big and tall, but they are some of the friendliest people. On the other hand my father's side most are short or average and I can tell you there's a whole lot more aggression on that side of the family, it might have something to do with being Italian... haha, so no I never thought tall people were scary or intimidating or 'aggressive'.

Hello everyone, this will be my first post on this forum. If anything, I seem to have had the opposite experience. I always had trouble from other kids going through school, and I shot up from 5' 0" at 12 to my current height of 6' 3" by the time I was 15. This, along with having red hair, being academically gifted and having Asperger's Syndrome (a high-functioning form of autism) made my school experiences very difficult, to say the least.

Growing up in spite of being one of the bigger kids I tended to get picked on clear into high school because I had no self confidence. It didn't help that I didn't have a shred of balance or grace until I was in my early-mid twenties. I was a klutz that wasn't good at any sport and have followed an arts and sciences path ever since.
These days though some people do tend to believe I'm aggressive. This is likely due to the fact that I'm almost always in black and generally have a leave me the f' alone posture when I'm alone in downtown or in my kind of sketchy neighborhood. Working in downtown San Diego and my neighborhood has made me jaded to the homeless, gang members, drug dealers, tourists, crazies, prostitutes and more as I have to deal with it everyday. I don't carry that with me into places where I know I don't have to be on the defense. Even in places where I'm having fun though, like a goth club, I'm still sometimes viewed upon as someone not to mess with.
Meh, I'm really a nice guy when I don't need to be on the defense.

Let me be more specific. The success of putting the chair on a 2x4 box platform led to the IDEA of simple, raised platforms for all kinds of applications. A 2x4 box which four 2x4 are attached simply with wallboard screws on the outside edge of a 3/…
I have no idea how you fit into a Jetta at 6'5". I sat in one at 6'6" last week and found it was rather cramped with the usual mirror obstruction. What year was this Jetta?
I contacted a bunch of different car manufacturers about this. Chevrolet was the most receptive to change, and Subaru was the first to respond. I wasn't impressed with Honda, or Fords responses at all. Chevrolet actually went to the extent of callin…
The Lincoln Navigator is still my favorite. I'm very sad that it is in the shop right now and I've been forced into an explorer. Leg room, Head room and rear view mirror are all problems, the Navi was the only one that solved those problems for me.…
