I’m also 6’4” and I tell this to people all the time. Ever since I hung out with a professional basketball player for a weekend of lives in the back of my mind rent free.

I’m only 6’4", male. My experience is that I need to slouch in the presence of normies so as not to be to intimidating. I am weirded out by people who tower over me because that is unexpected and anyone that tall doesn’t try to fit in - they just tower over all.

I’m only 6’ or 6’ 1.5” in the work boots they made me wear, 225 lbs +/-but one of my MSP tasks had me going to the practice facility for a local football team. Being surrounded by 7’ 350 lb linebackers messed with my head for quite a while.

When in doubt, keep your distance. You don’t have to slouch as much and I don’t have to look up as much.

Another 6’4" chiming in (6’5" in shoes). It’s weird to be walking in a crowd and needing to look up at someone. That always surprises me.

Imagine looking all the way up! I’m 6’6 and ran into someone in a country store. Such a strange feeling. And you can tell he didn’t trust airpods to convey “don’t talk to me” at that altitude, cause he was wearing headphones that looked big on him
