For those of you who feel bad about not being tall, honestly I think short guys look better than tall guys.

However, that doesn't provide reassurance to the ladies who happen to not be tall either. laugh.gif

I'm about 5' 5" (I don't know for sure, I've gotten results from 5' 4" to 5' 6" for my height.) and I'm almost 17... I'm of Chinese heritage, however. So that probably means I'm shorter than everyone here XD

There was this little height chart at the Museum of Science, apparently I'm in the upper 50% for height in my age/gender category o_o
Nottheking
Well, as far as broad generalizations go without accounting for ethnicity, I recall average for female adults is 5'4", and 5'10" for male adults.
seerauna
You're not shorter than everyone. I'm 5' 4" and so is Ibis even if she hasn't posted in awhile. So not everyone wink.gif.

I was going to start a topic on alternate story arcs for RPG's. But not anymore; I'd rather discuss my height.

I'm 6'0 at 19 and still growing biggrin.gif.

PS: 1rst Post!!!!

Well, when I was 12, I was about 5`8. Not anymore though because I`m 6`8 and 19. I`m very tall for an asian. biggrin.gif
Darkom
Ah, I am fourteen and five eleven, and have grown about eleven inches in the past few years. I am also about a hundred and fifty pounds, if it matters.
Lord Revan
I'm 16 and a half, might be 6 foot now, but I'm officially 5'11
Remko
Moderately tall. 1.82m 70kg / 6'1" 143lbs
But I am not going to grow anymore.
Darkom, you're 14? Wouldn't have thought that.

Sub, you're not old. You're just a Telvanni Wizard-Lord, you think you're old, but you're really just experienced.
Liam
I'm average height, about five foot. So no, not tall. D:

I'm hopelessly short. I have to look up all the time if I want to see anything.

(I'm 5'8")
Count Lauriel
I'm not the tallest, but I'm not the shortest.

I'm 6ft or thereabouts. Probably closer to 6ft 1 now though. I used to feel tall, until all my friends suddenly grew and now I'm perfectly average.

I'm 6'4", and I'm the runt of the family! So I guess the answer would be yes to most people, but no when I'm at home.

Holy Crap Destri !!!!! That is tall !!!!

I'll be 16 in 21 days, and I'm about 174cm tall.

Twleve, and 5 feet 5 inches. Still growing. Ahh, the pleasure of being taller than my 14 yr. old sister, my mom, and close to my dad. Hahahaha. LOL. Are Irish/French/German people supposed to be tall?

Personally, I'd rather be petite, 'cause I'm like, big-boned, and tall, so it can get kinda annoying. What's wrong with being short if ur a girl? Guy's, not so much. But girls? Nah, short is cool, even if you get to be the runt.

Especially if you're petite, you (duh) can't be big-boned. Seriously, who wants to be tripping over their size 11 feet? Really annoying. And since I'm ranting now, I might add that I have big hands, too, which makes it easy to break a pencil and hard to control one (which is part of the reason that my handwriting's so messy).

Although, I do note that every girl who is tall seems to want to be short (me included), and every boy who is short wants to be tall, and every girl who is short wants to be tall, and a couple of really-tall guys would rather be average height. Ah, well, the grass is always greener on the other side. Except when it isn't.
Shadowgale
Hmm... I agree w/ Petra. I like being short. Or, rather, petite. Then, instead of looking down or up at people, you just go about your buisness and don't look at all tongue.gif . I'm 14, and 5 ft. It's not bad. Of course, soon, I'll hit my growth spurt and tower over people, and I'll probably say being tall isn't so bad either laugh.gif .

Ahh, fickle me.

I'm approaching 6' even (I'm halfway to 21 so my growth spurt has just about ended). I also have long fingers (about 1/2 inch longer than normal). Makes it a pain to find a decent pair of driving gloves, but does help when it comes to typing. That being said, I have horrible handwriting.

I'm not exactly "tall" but I'm not runty, either. I guess I've been blessed so far with my body deciding to grow upwards rather than outwards. laugh.gif

The Vyper
At 6' 4", I'm the tallest member of my entire family and something of an anomaly. All of the other adults in my family range in size from 4' 6" to 5' 8". My nephews (ages 2 and 4) keep calling me a giant. laugh.gif
Shadowgale
Wow, Viper. your family is very ahem... SHORT. Even by my small standards! biggrin.gif

4 feet 6 in. ! Woa.
Jacki Dice
21 and I'm 5'7 and a half!


Tall according to the standards of my dad's side of the family and tiny compared to the giants on my mom's side.

Sob! I feel your pain! My fingers are often compared to skeletons, so gloves and rings are a huuuuuuuge pain for me :/

Lol, I hope so. I had a friend who was the same height as you (he was 18 then) and suddenly at age 24 he just started growing again. By the time he was 29 he was 6'7"

I’m 5’7” in a family of tall men and short women, so I’m both short and tall, depending on who is judging. My brother and my cousin both grew 2 inches in college, those guys’ feet can really fill up a room. Good luck with the not growing, Wrothken! smile.gif
Lunaia
I'm a girl, from the Netherlands with a lot of Irish blood in her family. Happens to be 5'1 and will stay that for ever.

(1.52, I think that's 5'1)

Welcome! You'll find that most people on this forum are nice (Me not really included, as I happen to be one of those infamous geeky tomboys who can beat up anyone). Do you have a story?
