I'm 6'3" because I'm alpha and sexy.

What's with the archaic measurement systems? Well, I'll see your Olde Imperial and raise you Ancient Egyptian: I am 4.16 cubits tall.

Only Norwegians and Danes use cm to measure height. :colbert:

The correct unit of measure is the meter.

1.77 meters tall. or short. I guess that relies on your perspective.

The correct unit of measure is the meter.

Only if by "correct" you mean "useless." Why would you use a unit of measurement for height that requires decimals out to the hundredths for any accuracy or differentiation? "Oh I'm about 1.92 meters." Feet > cm > meters.

Average, 5'6" :greenie:

One requires only the number of decimal points one desires. The beauty of SI is that it works on base 10, which is natural to humans. 100 centimeters in a meter. 1000 meters in a kilometer. 1000 mililitres in a litre. No need to memorize absurd conversion factors like 12 inches in a foot or however many goddamn feet in a mile, which is probably a prime number. SI makes sense.

EDIT: Of course! 2716 yarmolks in a quatloo! It makes perfect sense!

I'm 5'1'' and I've decided if I do ever have kids I want them to be massive. 6' and up. ^_^

I want my sons and daughters to all be ridiculous giants who can then retrieve things for me from the top shelf in the cereal aisle because they always put what I want at the top, bastards.

In all seriousness, anywhere from 4'11'' - 6'6'' is pretty normal to me.

I'm 5 feet and almost five inches. 4.75 inches. Does the quarter inch really matter?

Generally I'm about average with other women around me except for when I worked at kmart when I literally towered over almost every other woman there.

6'4". I hate it. I live in a world filled with short people. Everyone asks me to reach things they're too lazy to get a step ladder for.

Iceglow
09-24-2012, 07:17 AM
Roughly six foot.

Does this mean like me you're actually about 5'11" but can be 6'0 or above depending on shoes, hairstyle etc?

Laddy

5'10". I seem taller though because I'm surrounded by smurfs.

I'm shorter than MILF but taller than Jiro. My height depends on the time of day because the longer I'm up the shorter I get. Back problems :kaocry2:

Sarah is 5'5" which is like THE PERFECT HEIGHT. I can see over her head and survey my surroundings but she's still tall enough to kiss me if she stands on her toes without me bending over and hurting my back :D

5'7". Taller than the average woman, apparently.

Slothy

I'm not sure the average around here is a representative sample of the general population. Unless the general population are midgets and I haven't noticed.

I'm 6 feet tall. Though I feel about half that after my drunken posts on here on Saturday night.

So basically you're saying, not only is Rantz a giant, he's the fuckin BFG.

Slothy

Huh, for some reason I thought average height for females was taller than that. Males is where I thought it was though. Never mind then, apparently most of the women posting here are almost average. ;)

Better than being a 5' 2.5" male who will always have an inferiority complex about women wanting taller mates :monster:

I came in here to make a BFG reference, but I'm not sure where you got that from!

Either way, I'm the BFG.

Many Africans are actually quite tall so that list seems inaccurate. I need more proof. I need more theory and MORE statistics BoB.
