How tall are you?
 

Inspired by Sewers thread~

I've noticed here that a lot of Americans think that anywhere in the top range of 5 feet is tall.

In my country this is not the case. I'm 6'2" or 6'3" or so and I'm not considered tall here because there are so many males around my height.

Is your country full of midgets?

Edit: if you're some sort of freak, the poll only allows 20 options.. so click the closest and specify in the thread.

results are being tabulated and used against you in future lawsuits.

6'2" or 3" here, I probably should've found a measuring tape before posting the thread O:-)

I am 5'11, most of the people around here are at least 5'5 or higher. my brother is about 6'6.

I was measured the other day by my doctor, and I clocked in at 6'6". I used 6'5", though, because it's closest.

5'4", so I'm on the lower end of 5' and have always seen myself as average height. I think anyone in the high 6' range is rather tall in comparison and in general.

Hmm... I'm 5'5", and I think of myself as short. It must be the type of people I hang out with since I'm the only person who is shorter than six feet.

Many people in my area are a bit on the short side. It's somewhat rare for me to see a male who's at least 6'0, but there are still a good amount of them who are. But compared to other countries I've visited, they're not that tall around my area. That said, I'm about 5'6" and one of the taller girls at school and among my group of friends.

I'm 6' give or take half an inch. I haven't had a height measurement by a doctor in a while, but I was 5'11" and a bit two years or so ago (when I was around 16).

5'6" and I've always considered myself short (for a guy, at least)

Well if you're saying top range of 5 feet is not tall then I must say a lot of guys in my area are short, since only a handful of them reach 6'.

I'm 5'6" (give and take) myself, and I consider myself just about average height.

I can't remember the last time I've been officially measured, but I know I was around 5'11" whenever I did do it (back when I was 18, which means I probably haven't grown since then). I've never really considered myself tall (because it seems like no matter how many people I'm taller than in a room, there's always at least one person taller), but I know I'm definitely not short either.

5'8... i'm kinda tall, my sisters are all like 5'6/5'7 and my brother is like 6'3...

I'm a short 5'10". I'd like to be at least 6' because that's about how tall most of my friends are. One girl friend I have is probably 6'2 or more.

Almost 5'6", which is short, even for an Asian male.

I think I was 5'9" or 5'10" last time I had a physical. Can't imagine I've changed that drastically since then. Oh, and I'd place myself at an "average" height.

The More You Know.

I'm 5'6" and consider myself short... though my mom/sister/brother are 5'1"/5'/5'4" so I guess I'm tall for my family

I'm about 5' 8". It's pretty average here. Most of my family is tall though so I'll probably get taller.

I'm 5'1". I'm your typical short Filipino. 5'6"/5'7"+ is considered "giant" among us.

I read that the average height is between, 5'9'' and 5'10''. I'm about 6' give or take half an inch.

I'm around 5' 8". My doctor claims that is average height for guys in my country. That's weird, cause i'm often the shortest guy in the room, with very few exceptions.

I'd say the majority of men in Manitoba seem to be around 6' 0".

I'm about 5' 10" last I checked. Which is kind of a bummer because everyone else I know outside my family is 6'+. I guess I should consider myself lucky though. Most of my family is short. I'm taller than both my parents by quite a bit and none of my siblings are my height. So I guess I got lucky when the genes were dealt.

6ft exactly. I think its the perfect height and i'm glad about it. 5'11 to 6'2 seems to be about the average around my friends.

I'm 5'11''. I'm taller than most of the men I know. The ones who are taller than me tend to be a lot taller than me.

5'8 and I'm an asian girl so everyday I thank god I'm not a midget.

I'm 5'7.5" and feel it a decent height. The only time it's something of an issue is when I wear heels, and it makes me an Amazon.

5ft even, I grew 2 inches this year :D
