height is an issue

i hear a lot of vertically challenged people complain on how they hate being short .and to an extent i can empathises .but for the most part i think its total crap .this world is built for people how are around 5'7'' .which is the average height of the american male .i'm 6'1'' so i can easily reach most things that the shorter people have put up high for whatever reason .but i get them for them .i try not to let my height go to my head .what really gets to me about being taller is that since every thin is built for people who are shorter then myself .i'm constantly whacking, banging, and knocking the crap out of my head on everything .our microwave is a built in vent-a-hood so its up higher .so i'm the one who gets told i have to wipe it out even though i'm never the one to leave my food uncovered and get it dirty .it just really pisses me off some times that i'm suppose to feel bad because you're short .being tall like i'm trying to tell you isn't all its cracked up to be .i want the tall life you think i have .that'd be nice .yet i don't get to have it .i have to constantly duck to avoid hitting my head .and hurt when i forget to duck .i have to deal with a cramped back from stooping to was anything in the bathroom sink .being uncomfortable sitting in chairs that i'm not proportioned for .so next time you think it sucks being short .just remember its not all peachy being tall .this world was built by shorter people to fit the needs of the short people
