Slim Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Maybe its just one of the things about getting older, but I have shrunk almost an inch and a half. Wearing heels is one way I can still be "myself". On two or three ocasions I have, for one reason or another, not worn heels. However, some of the women I know did, and they towered over me. Do you know they took off their shoes so as to come down to my level! I even heard the off hand comment that I looked like I was standing in a hole. So watch out guys, once you start wearing these things you may not be able to stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobHH Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 One thing you have to watch when getting older is posture. Standing up straight - straight back, shoulders back, gut in, and neck up, not out or down - makes a couple of inches difference in height. Many older people tend to slump or sag unconsciously, which makes them shorter. I have really noticed this, as I am dancing and have been given lessons in posture and stature and am more aware of other people's posture and height.
