nope. 'what if' questions don't have much value for me; they're like a mouse-maze with no cheese at the end... there's nothing useful to me that would result from that kind of question.

when it comes to physical form, i look at it as "i got what i got and that's what i got". of course, some things about physical form can certainly be changed and improved - weight, muscle tone, etc. - and i'll take actions for personal improvement where possible, sure. But height can't be changed, so i don't bother even going there.

realistically speaking, i'm aware that i may not be the prettiest thing in the world, or the smartest, or whatever - but that doesn't matter to me. i'm not very competetive and don't really care how i compare to others. i work with what i got, to the best of my ability. and however i am, is fine.

and i couldn't care less how tall or short a man is - it has nothing to do with the guy's character. whether or not i like him or find him attractive has nothing whatsoever to do with height. now if he didn't have any teeth, or he only had three and they were nasty, that would be an issue - but height? nah.
