• 70

  I was reading an article in Sports Illustrated about former seven foot NBA players. I guess I should clarify, these guys are still seven feet tall, but they are no longer NBA players. Now being somebody who at five feet, six inches is damn near close to seven feet tall, I never realized how many problems these guys have. I mean, it is all common sense stuff, but I guess I just never thought much about it. Now being under heighted, I sometimes have some trouble finding clothes that fit properly. But the problems I have pale in comparison to the shit these big fellas have to go through. There are far fewer seven footers than five and a half footers in America. There was a statistic in the article that estimated that there are only 70 American males between the ages of 20 and 40 who are at least seven feet tall. Think about that. How many males in America are between the ages of 20 and 40 (shit, it has to be at least 20 million if I had to guess) and even if the estimate is off by say, a thousand, it would still mean that a very small percentage are seven feet tall. Also, consider how many seven footers you have ever know. I've met a lot of people and only one of them of any age was seven feet tall.

  So in addition to having trouble finding clothes, they also have issues just walking  around, well, anywhere. Keep in mind that most doorways are under seven feet tall. Many ceiling fans hang around seven feet tall. Bathtubs and beds in hotels? Guess what, they are not big enough to accommodate a larger guy. Unless custom made, vehicles very rarely are big enough for these guys. And stalls in bathrooms? Well, guess what, when these guys go to the bathroom they hope like hell that there is a urinal open or that there isn't a guy taking a shit in the stall next to them.

  Furthermore, there seems to be some considerable health risks with taller guys. Even though our bodies were not meant to be THAT big, there are very few studies being done on bigger guys because, everybody wants their kids to be tall and not short, so there are tons of studies being done on the health effects of being small as opposed to being big. And then there is the social stigma that comes with being tall. I'm short, but people never come up to me and ask how short I am. But, a tall person? Well you can damn well bet that they get questions and comments from damn near every person they ever meet about their height.

  A few years ago I wrote a post about taller guys versus shorter guys. You really should go back and read that post, as I'm too lazy to find it myself. But, basically, it was about my constant curiosity about if tall guys are...................well, proportioned. After all, wouldn't it be hilarious to find out that, while being seven foot six, Yao Ming had a tiny three inch penis. And while being four foot nine, Danny Devito could be packing an eight incher downtown. Or what if I was naked next to Shaquille O'Neal and it turned out that I put him to shame? Hell, I know from first hand experience that height does not always dictate the size of one's cock.

  Honestly, that last paragraph really has nothing to do with the rest of the post, but you can't honestly tell me the cock size didn't pop into your head when reading this post or when you see a really tall ass fucking guy. Still though, I hope this post makes you have a better understanding of tall guys as I know the SI article did for me.

  Oh, and I don't think I could put Shaq to shame. Just for the record. As if there was some sort of record keeping of cock size.
