DEAR ABBY: Regarding “Tall Person Sympathizer” , whose very tall husband and son hate the comments they receive, I am 6 feet, 8 inches tall, so I can relate. One does feel like part of a freak show and have to deal with things most average height people don’t think twice about, like, “Can I fit in that car?” or “Where can I buy clothes that fit?” And that tired basketball question.

I’ll add, from my memory of my youth, it sure didn’t hurt in attracting the ladies. -- JAMES IN DELAWARE DEAR ABBY: My granddaughter was 6 feet tall by the time she was a sophomore in high school.
