Is 5'11" actually considered short or is it just a meme?

I'm 5'4" and I know I'm short but damn.

No it's above average height for men in ALMOST every country. By definition it isn't short.

People like feeling superior about something, and sometimes all a person has is their genetics.

I'm 6'1" before you call me a butthurt manlet.

i believe 5'9 is the average height for men. soooo no 5'11 isnt actually short, although some people may think of it that way.

5'7" when wearing boots here, just ******* own it man. There are more women attracted to confidence than there are that just want height. Personally I don't date girls under 6'8" because short girls are bitches that value height over pretty much everything else.

I can't tell if "girls under 6'8" was an error or intentional...
User avatar #103 to #96 - newfeliperuiz (12/13/2015) [-]
It was intentional. Short girls piss me off. Won't even talk to a girl unless she's a ******* Amazonian warrior.

It's a joke I started in high school where every time a girl told me she wouldn't date a guy under a certain height, I would one up her. About a year ago a girl told me she doesn't date guys under 6'7" and so I decided it's 6'8" girls or nothing

I'm gonna die alone

'attaboy! stick to your resolve, more power to ya! : D


tbh I don't care how tall a guy is. I'm only barely over 5'5 myself so everyone teases me about being short as it is, lol. It's not like height makes a guy any less date'able or something.

probably doesn't help much in my case tho. I'm a lesbo. : /

5'8"-5'10" is the western average.

Unfortunately, the media also portrays unrealistic body expectations for men, one of them being that "all men must be above 6ft" which is why many people believe someone who's 5'10" is tiny. (Robert Downey Jr. is 5'10" for example, and known for being "short" Heck, even Tom Cruise, world renowned "tiny man" is actually 5'7" which isn't exactly an abnormal height.)

Kind of, but at the same time not really. At 6' I've noticed that most people I've met in college are smaller than me, but not too much. 5'11 is really close to average. Females see it as like 5'6 so to them it is short.

Females see it as anyone under 6' isn't a man and they laugh at them.

Sorry bro.

5'8" is global average for adult males.
User avatar #44 to #13 - CaptainKill (12/12/2015) [-]
What is short and what is tall is highly variable depending on the country. For America/Canada and most of Europe, anything around 178cm (5'10) is considered average for a man, with some taller exceptions including the Netherlands, Germany, and the Scandinavian countries. In asia though, an average Westerner would be tall by comparison.

tl;dr, men who get self-conscious about being "short" when they are at least 178cm/5'10 are pretty much experiencing body dismorphia. Hell I'd extend the term "average height" to those who are at least 175cm or taller.

I'm 5'6" living in Norway, so here I'm pretty short, but while in Wales I felt pretty tall. Mostly comes down to where you are I guess.

I'm 5'10 and people call me short lol.
It depends on your demographic, in my hometown I'm average height, at my uni I'm king manlet as most people are 6'4+
User avatar #77 to #29 - thesinful (12/12/2015) [-]
Yep. In high school, I was the 2nd tallest at 6'3" tallest was Cain who was 6'5" . In college, I was about average with plenty of guys towering over me, including a couple who ducked through doors.

Although a lot of women do consider anything under 6ft short.
User avatar #49 to #16 - fluttergrey (12/12/2015) [-]
If a person is shorter than you, then you are tall. If they are taller than you, then you are short.

you must be dumb a lot
User avatar #94 to #85 - fluttergrey (12/12/2015) [-]
If a person is smarter than you, then you are dumber. If a person is dumber than you, you only look smarter. In the end we all have ways to go in knowledge.
User avatar #17 to #16 - venomousvalentine (12/12/2015) [-]
thats dumb.
User avatar #18 to #17 - allthelolz (12/12/2015) [-]
Yeah I'm not exactly sure what the criteria is for it, most women I date are around 5'5-5'8. They like to wear 3-inch heels as well so they tend to take that into their judgment. Basically if you're not decently taller than them when they're in heels you're "short". Do get me wrong it's retarded logic, as is most women's logic.
