What would say is short average and tall?
post #1

I know I am short but I was on break today for lunch and this woman called my best friend short and he is about 5'10 which I think is above average. The girl a friend of ours is 5'3ish give or take a few cm and insisted that anything under 6'1 is short! Clearly she's not playing with a full deck but it got my friend and I to thinking what constitutes as tall, average or short. We came up with this chart and based it on how people treated friends of ours and how girls respond to them. Tell me what you think

 

5'-5'2: extremely short. women will not go near you unless they are morbidly obese and unattractive

5'3-5'4: very short - unless you have a lot of money most women wouldn't touch you and if they do they wouldn't admit it

5'5-5'6: where you start being tormented for your height. women will only date you if you are supererior in every other to anyone taller or have a special skill

5'7'-5'8: women will tolerate you but you will not get any points for height. you need to be a fighter or have a chiseled physique to get respect from other men

5'9-5'11 - you are average and on a level playing field

6'-6'2: ideal. women want you, go after you and you get points for being tall. you are societies embodiment of masculinity

6'3-6'4: better than ideal. women who are taller than 5'7 will fight over you

6'5+: extremely tall. this is where your height can start working against you

Assuming we're only talking about men

 

<5'2 = Extremely short

5'2-5'4 = Very short

5'5-5'7 = Short

5'8 = Below average

5'9-5'11 = Normal height

6' = Above average

6'1-6'3 = Tall

6'4-6'5 = Very tall

6'6+ = Extremely tall

I would say anything between 5'5 and 5'8 is below average. Short to me starts at 5'4.

5'8 can look average. I know they use camera tricks in movies, but look at Jason Statham. He comes off as a beast in most of his movies and never looks really short or that far below average.

5-5'3" is Very Short
5'4"-5'7" is Short
5'8"-5'11" is Average
6'-6'3" is Tall
6'4"+ is Very Tall

 

I think mine is the most accurate. Everyone I know between 5'8" and 5'11" never gets comments about their height be it negative or positive. The 5'4"-5'7" guys get teased constantly and guys 5'3" and below are stigmatized to the point where people are almost careful to comment on their height. It's weird.

If people call you short, then you're short. If they don't comment on your height, you're average. If women are impressed by your height and make mention of it, then you're tall smile

That one part where she said she was just there to practice lol.

So even after women decided to leave, the women left STILL wanted to engage in humiliating men.

No wonder most dudes pass on these things.
