Regardless, I think I have an idea of what you're feeling. I'm never going to be the teeny tiny blonde cheerleader who gets on top of the pyramids. And I don't like it. I hate it. But such is life.

I'm 5'10" tall as well. I used to feel awkward, but now I love it. I never did want to be the little blond cheerleader, but I love how dainty some girls are. I am very proud of my height, I learned it is a great asset. I'm as strong as many men, I can handle myself in most situations , and I can reach things for the short people.
My So is shorter than me, 5'7". It's only other people who seem to have a problem with it. I was offended when a guy came up to me and asked if I was really with him. Why do people think women can't be with a shorter guy?
SF you should wear it a as badge of honor. I think Lasereth has it right, others look up to you as a protector, as someone who they can trust if shit gets serious. I was that and more to a lot of my friends.
