Stupid topic to read at first glance, I know. But I've been thinking...Me being 6 feet tall it's always seemed like people expect more from you for being all. Like they expect jokes from you and expect you to be the leader of a group of friends. It also may be the demographics of the Bay Area where there's lots of asians and latinos who are usually shorter. Is more expected from taller people?

Height can be a novelty in some instances but I dont think it has anyrelation to expectations, in my experience anyway.

I don't see why more would be expected from tall people.
