Hey Pandas, What Daily Challenges Do Larger People Face That May Go Unnoticed By Smaller Friends? (Closed)
I'm not huge, but I'm a fairly big guy: 6'1", 270lbs; if my conversion is correct that's 1.85m, 122.4kg. I wear a US size 15 shoe (UK 14, Eur 49). Shoe stores almost never carry my size. The same is true for accessories like gloves and socks. Sitting on a plane or in an older theatre is torture on my cramped-up knees. I have to walk down some stairs sideways because my feet don't fit on the steps. I have fallen more than once. I like being tall, but there are some inconveniences that come with the territory.
