    I’m a largeish dude, 6’ 230lb. Sometimes I’ll see a person that looks like a baby deer and wonder how we’re the same species.

      6’5" here. Because very few people are noticeably taller than I am, when I meet someone who is it’s a crazy experience especially 7ft+.

      I can recall being stun locked by having to look up at someone much taller than me 5 times total in my 35 years alive so far since middle school.

      The opposite doesn’t really phase me until I’m physically holding a significant other. Then I’m like holy shit you’re tiny! Dunno why it doesn’t quite register until then.

        For me it’s the hands. My hands are pretty big even for my size. I’ve shaken maybe 3 or 4 hands bigger than mine, and it’s a bizarre experience every time.

      I have a photo of myself with the lead singer of Metalachi and it really is like he’s meeting Goliath. It’s insane
