Psychologically taller people have the advantage because they *subconsciously* appear more dominant. You can google this and learn about it in the animal kingdom- especially where crouching and kneeling, etc are attempts at making oneself smaller as a form of submission/surrender in order to survive.
Thus, taller people are treated differently (better) in everyday situations, just as skinny people or rich people are treated differently.

I think It's a lot easier to be tall when it comes to reach. I like being short though. I like my balance and low center of gravity. I'm 5' Ever read Mr. Short and Mr. Tall? It was about a mouse and a giraffe who were friends. One was short and the other was tall. In the end they both have advantages.

That's a difficult question. Tall as in taller than the average?? I think that neither one is better. I think that people who are taller than the average are just as much at a disadvantage as short people. They just face different difficulties than short people do.

Tall burns more calories than short, and tall can hide more "extra pounds" than short.
Tall sucks when trying to buy pants.

Of course being tall is always better it is more classy & things tend to look better on you, but of course there is a limit not too tall!But like 5'7 to 5'11 for women i would say is ideal.

If you are talking about a drink, I think so. Otherwise, I'd say it's a matter of preference.
