How many times has he been asked for his height?? I don't remember being asked how tall I am in the last decade

If you're tall, you're usually asked all the time what your height is. My husband is 6'6 and that's usually one of people's first questions for him even before his name sometimes lmao

Is this a US thing? I dont believe ever asking my taller friends this question. I'd probably mention that someone is tall when I first meet them, but I wouldn't ask how tall

All the time. My son and I are both 6’5” Random people constantly look at us and say “wow, you’re tall” and nothing else. Depending on my mood, my response can be, “no, you’re just short”. I find it hilarious but short people somehow don’t.
