For one thing, when RJ revealed that Rand is 6'7", I was blown away. That's a ridiculous height, especially given the general nutritional knowledge, etc, of the people. It also means that Egwene and many others are basically staring at his belt buckle all the time. Characters would actually complain about neck pains, or would stand really far back from him.
I know people around that height, and it's really not that bad. That said, I'm 6'2" myself and others might find it more unsettling.

Rand: Does his red hair make it difficult to imagine him as a hero for some of you too?

I think the Norse god Tyr was often portrayed with red-hair

It really is more of a reflection of pop culture than historical parallels where blond=ideal.

The good thing about personal pronouns is they're widely applicable; it's also the bad thing.

It's all about proportions, and taste.

Gross. All I can think of when you say proportions is Rand's huge dong covered in red pubes

What could his hair color possibly have to do with it?
