I wouldn't say deffrenciated height deems a person "imperfect"

He wouldn't have been picked on as a kid.. all those nick names would have been obsolete...

lol no, in my eyes he's already perfect, but when it comes 2 other's perceptions that seems to put him in the hole...only when it comes to certain other's opinions

He'd be Terence Trent Darby, not as talented more pompous due to built in notions about his superiority. Terence being tall could go to the military, waste time boxing and have the security that women would still throw themselves at him even as a mediocre artist-prince didnt have those options, it was genuis or bust.

Well, my response to this would be "What would have happened if Snoop Dog wasn't so Tall?"

Um....wtf?

I think that Prince would have been musically inclined no matter what shape/size/race he was born. Music was just his talent and that's that.

There are all types of successful musicians who aren't short, does that mean their music could never be as deep as Prince's? Of course not. It's not like he's trying out for the NFL here, it doesn't matter how tall you are on a piano stool.

Lots of (extremely silly) people are permanently stuck in 2nd grade when it comes to the height thing, they hyperfocus on it and it's always in the back of their minds. A successful person is normal sized = it's cause he's talented. A successful person is 5'5" = he's trying to make up for being such a shorty. So basically no short person could be good at something without it being attributed to their height? Ridiculous

oh my goodness, where do I even start with this one?

Prince’s height, or lack thereof, has contributed to so many of the other traits in his life, that it’s hard to pick the most noticeable ones. But I shall attempt to. Firstly, if Prince was taller, he wouldn’t have been picked on so much, and if he wouldn’t have been picked on so much, he’d have the confidence to admit to being gay or bi-sexual. We all know it’s only matter of time before those bones fall out of that glass closet.
Secondly, his height contributed to his need for control. When the world is big by comparison to your little frame, you will seek to control everything around you so as to prevent any of it from harming you. I mean, imagine Prince’s first time meeting Michael Jackson—a six foot, lanky, pasty, amorphous, freakish looking giant in comparison---would you have agreed to do a music video with the likes of that if you stood no taller than a 13 year old girl? Hell to the fuck naw.
Lastly, Prince’s height contributed to his ‘disguise’. You never get to see the real Prince in interviews because the real Prince is covered up. There’s a blanket over him, and that blanket manifests itself in high heels, bad wigs, makeup, dark sunglasses, and countless statements that dodge direct personal questions.

But Prince would have far, far, too alien for me to even imagine if he were tall. A confident, strapping, bossy bottom with a musical gift like none other, he would have definitely looked like Rupual out of drag but in control, honey… in control!

I like my Prince the way he is… an angry little queen with LMS( little man syndrom) , aka a Napoleon complex, and too much talent to even be dealt with.

anywho, i'd say P probably wouldn't of been able to of pulled off some of the crazy outfits and styles he dawned in previous decades

his icon status would have been deviated as well, not by a landslide though
