MANY QUARRELS MANY INCIDENTS OF VIOLENCE HAVE OCCURRED WHEN THE TOPIC ABOUT THE HUMAN HEIGHT CAME INTO DISCUSSION. IT HAS BEEN A VERY TOUCHY TOPIC OF DISCUSSION WHEREIN WORDS EXPRESSED ABOUT HEIGHT IS TAKEN BY PARTICIPANTS AS IF THEY WERE ADDRESSED TO THEM PERSONALLY TO INSULT AND HUMILIATE THEM. HUMAN AVERAGE HEIGHT. Human Height. Normal Male Height 5’-10” Normal Female Height 5’-5” Abraham Lincoln was 6’-4” Tall. He is considered Tallest of all US Presidents. James Madison was only 5’-4” Tall, considered shortest of all US Presidents. Height is a very touchy issue. Many quarrels have ensued in normal height discussions. A thread of Tallness in height counts. Present President Obama is 6’-1” A small soldier shoots straight. The army wing prefers tall soldiers. The Navy prefers its crew of medium height. The Air force prefers air-men with small height. Therefore it is imperative that you select the right wing. Height of the child is a hot topic in the family since its birth. Children are conscious of height when in the school the teacher asks the class boys and girls to line-up as per the short and the tall. Height of the body is not something one can change. When children get together the important question is about the height. When shall I grow? How much shall I grow? How much tall will I be? All grow up. But they grow up on a fixed schedule. It is said that the genes inherited from the parents largely determines the height of the child. A short height child feels it a joke of the nature on him that he grew short. It is true that in our society a small man is at a disadvantageous position than the tall ones. Result of research studies indicates that in countries like the USA, life is equated with the physical size. We see corporate heads large and tall and imposing. Most successful people are six foot tall slim and straight. Lawyers, politicians actors prominent people are almost six footers. There are salesmen, policemen, football players, sportsmen who have tall size. The women prefer tall straight and slim with normal weight. Aggressiveness intelligence and all that comes afterwards. So it can be said that persons with a small height in many cases is an object of pity, amusement scorn and rejection. Height is the Nature’s gift. If you are not tall or medium height, the world is not lost. What counts is your own ability and self confidence. You can rule the world if you have the mettle. Napoleon, Hitler were small statured. Yet they ruled the world.
