A lot of Asians are lactose intolerant. So much so that there are many tea houses in Asian neighborhoods that don't use cow milk. Instead they use soy or almond milk only. I know if I have too much lactose I don't feel good. But yeah, there are a lot of short Italians! LOL
But like I said, all the girls in China were SO much taller than me! Everyone that was young was at least 5'6". Over here it's rare that an Asian girl is that tall.
