Maybe because I'm a fairly big guy, no one has said it to my face ? I just have heard the "oh he/she is so stuck up" meme for so long, and I've asked people, how do you KNOW they are stuck up and NOT shy ? The answer always comes back, Oh I KNOW he/she is stuck up. I just drop the conversation at that point, because it's not worth pursuing.

If you're a big (tall and/or muscular) guy also and someone had the guts to say it to your face, then I feel doubly sorry for you !
