I'm 5'11" however I sometimes wish I was like 6'2" or something. I don't know why really.

What the hell, where's the option for 6'6? :mad:

(I always think of myself as short and it really surprises me when I stand close to other people because I have to look down. I suppose it's a self-esteem issue.)

Well I'm only 5'9" but I'm a girl and that's 4 inches over the average female height so I consider myselft tall enough, especially since my mother is only 5'2"

I'm 5'4", definitely short for a guy. Never really gave it much thought since very few people around me are significantly taller than me.

I'm 6'1. I was surprised to get more comments about my heigth when I lived in the US for 4 months than I do back home. I guess I'm of average (or just slightly above) height here.

I'm 6'2, kind of tall for an asian girl I guess?

5'5. I consider myself short. Oh how I wish I could be taller. :(

I'm 5'2". Japanese people are always small. :(

Nn, I'm the shortest so far. Just a bit over 4'11" for me. 5' in shoes I guess. Hehe. Everyone is tall to me.

More like a giant black asian girl?

Wow, to be honest, I don't think I've ever seen an asian girl that tall. jeez

edit: whoa, wait. I just saw your gff factfile. you said you're 5'6". you has some explaining to do missus

super special awesome ultra special sexy transformation sequence go!

I'm about 178-180cm, which is about 5'11, i believe.

Nearly six-one. Closer thus than just-plain six foot.

I am 6'3", and considered just on the cusp of being tall. Average is about 5'10" or so. All my Asian friends consider me very tall. I guess with good reason.

I'm 5'9. My family always makes a big deal about how tall I am. I'm not that freaking tall. They're always saying maybe I'll grow up to be 6 foot. I'm 22 now and they are people who are taller than me that used to shorter than me. I'm done growing.

I'm 5'3". It's average here. I'm taller than alot of girls but there are also alot of girls who are taller than me.

5'6" and proud of it!

That's 167cm? At 18 years of age, I don't think I'll grow anymore...Suppose that's partially because I'm asian.

I'm 5'7½" :P I'm a little taller than average, I guess. I wouldn't mind being an inch or so shorter though. Most of my pants look like flood pants. ;_;

5' 81/2". At least I'm taller than my dad and my older brother. I'm Korean by the way.

6' 1" whitey here. Closer to 6' 2", but I'm not all that eager to get any taller. The only three guys I've met who are noticeably taller than me are also much bigger in general... and the tallest one of them has like, no personality. Maybe there's not enough oxygen up there so he gets all... airheaded. Strange term.

The last time that I was measured was in high school, where I came in at 6 feet 4 inches.

One of the things that I absolutely hate hearing is "Wow, you're tall!" Seriously, how do you respond to that? "Uh...yea" is one that I go with often, or sometimes "Well what do you want me to do about it?" if I feel like being a jackass. As an ice breaker, it angers me on many levels.

I'm 6'4". This above average for the area that I live in. That's around down the 6' mark.

People also always ask me how tall I am, which gets irritating after a while. I just go with "Yeah, I'm only 6'4"." Once I have told them how tall I am, they tend to go slightly wide-eyed, but once they have processed that, they tend to just leave me alone, and go on their merry way.

I'm around 5'9, never really remember to tell the truth.
Where I live just about all the hispanics are really short so I feel high and mighty around them. Then when I'm around black people they are just about my hight or taller. The when I'm around a white neighborhood I notice that alot of middle aged males are really tall. Especially some of my teachers.

I'm 5'9''
