I'm 5'2.5". .5, you ask? Look, when you're short enough to see the contents of many people's noses, every half inch counts.

And I would be no where if not for my stilettos.

I usually wear 3 inch heels. When I met Sutton Foster I was wearing 4 1/2 inch heels and could hardly walk.

Technically, the cut-off height for a legalized midget is 4'11". So feel privileged that you're over 5ft. :)

Are they platforms or pumps? (In other words, are your toes elevated too?)

Pumps. With a fairly thin heel for a 12-year-old.

Good god! 4.5" heel and 12 years old?! (I feel old now.) That's like the Sex and the City episode where Samantha hosts that spoiled 13 year old's bat mitzvah and the girl's dressed like a tramp and talking about blow jobs and sex! (Please tell me you don't watch Sex and the City. Or I may fall over.) Whatever happened to the days where getting KEDS were the coolest kicks a 12-yr-old could ask for??

I don't but some of my friends do. And one of my friends actually did that at her bat mitzvah.

Did what at her bat mitzvah? *whispers* Blow jobs and sex and trampy clothing?

Oh Ellie, I'm so glad to know someone as well versed in SatC as me.

MFL - My god! When I was 12, my biggest concerns were training bras and my period! Now...sex? Trampy clothing? *faints*

Do we blame the Spice Girls? Britney? Who's the scapegoat for this nasty trend?

Ummm.....I don't know. And worst of all was, during one of my Hebrew classes, we're learning Jewish laws abotu sex so teh teacher spent 40 minutes talking about how it's normal to think about sex but you can't masturbate and if you don't get married early it sucks for you because you can't let out your sexual feelings. Not fun.

Posted: 1/6/05 at 9:59pm

Yep, girls do that at Confirmations, too. It's absolutely disgusting.

MFL-- I've had the same talk, just on Christian laws about sex *groans* I had to have a whole semester on that.

I have my books and my poetry to protect me...

Thanks for sympathising. The teacher who explains it to us is extremely perverted (he talks about how he likes sex and how he desires sex all the time) and encourages us to ask sexual questions or divulge sexual facts about our grase or ourselves.

I'm confused. There's a thread on the main board with the exact same title, but it's about the song that Gavroche sings in Les Miz...

Well I thought I was 5'2 but when I went to the doctor last February I was sadly mistaken. Turns out I'm like 5'1 and a quarter or some nonsense like that. I broke down because I thought I was shrinking since I distinctly remembered being 5'1 and 3/4 the check up before.

I still say I'm 5'2 and was simply not measured properly.

Kristen Chenoworth said that she was 4'11' yesterday night on West Wing. It shows you that size doesn't always matter.
