This question is not to insult anyone tall or short. I saw this article
quote: "Taller people are smarter, too, study says
Princeton economists say findings justify better pay for more height"
Look up the link, no insult intend on anyone.
Your opinion on the article! do you think it is true?

Interesting, but I don't think it is true. That study is generalizing. Check out past famous figures in history many of them were short, for example Einstein, he was short.
But, tall people seems to receive better opportunities, hence are viewed smarter. Very interesting.

Really...........................then plastic surgeons will be having brain-enriching therapy.(laughs). I dont think it really matters, I am above average height (6ft'5in') and I dont think taller people are smarter. After reading the article on MSN (as posted above), I remembered an artcle I read that surveyed married and non-married couples. The survey showed that 30% of all married couples get into car-related accidents in their first 3-years of marriage in the USA. What does this mean? In my opinion this is in the case as taller people are smarter, the resulsts are absolutely, 100% the truth but the interpretation of the data is important.

Um no, being tall doesn't make you smarter, it just makes you less vertically challenged. I was of the opinion your intelligence was related to your brain and how you used it, not your height, shoe size, or anything else. Before you ask, being taller doesn't guarantee larger male appendages either, judge a man's appendage by the car he drives LOL

I want to say that's true, only because I'm tall. But I've known smart short people and tall people that weren't all that smart.

I'm short and sharp as a needle. That is just a stupid experiment.
