Most people blantantly lie about their height.

Quote from: Smallguy on December 10, 2014, 03:24:21 AMSorry, I joke a lot. This video is hilarious and it gives me the chuckle every time I watch it.

Btw, is that what California women looks like? (like the movie).. I imagine that there are a lot more hispanic women down there now.

The white women are in the prosperous areas. Most of the time in the south bay it's Mexicans and Asians/Indian Asians.

Quote from: Smallguy on December 10, 2014, 02:35:21 AMThis may disappoint many of you but the world average height for male age 20 and older is 168.14cm. It doesn't matter what many of you want or think, the facts speak for itself. Scandinavian is just a small area. I probably never visit there this lifetime so probably wouldn't see the tall giants there.

The website is http://www.interbasket.net/news/4385/2009/09/average-height-by-country-males-20-years/

The data for height and population are given. I calculated the % of the population of each country based on the total. I then took that percentage and times it to the height of that country. The total is added up and it is 168.14cm. That means the average height of the world population is 168.14cm. Okay, given this article might be old since it was written in 2009 but even if you believe that human male has increased in height over the past 5 years, the world average height for male would still be around 5'7.

And here is Steve at 191cm. Beside the haircut, what kind of thing can he change to improve his chances with women?



I agree with you that on a world-scale, 168 cm is average, but for most of the developed western world, about 176 cm is average.

Yeah, if we like to use white male as the only standard, then the average height in all of western countries is around 176cm according to the data.

I took out all the non-european countries and re-calculate. The total average height is 175.41.

Ajax2thousand20 Thanks for the info! It's very similar to here. We have 3 main suburban cities, for the wealthy, middle-class and the poor. Many young people age 18-28 live in downtown. That's where I mostly hang-out.

Edit Post

Yeah I'm in the same boat. Allthough I feel like I'm getting to old for some youngster women so I may need to look for women in different places. Gonna probably go to Vegas sometime next year or Latin America to look for women.

So 5'11 in 1 inch loafers? hitting 6'0  Whats your thoughts on that ?

im wondering if 5'11 is enough for people not to give to  s about height.

Edit Post

People aren't going to care about your height past 5'9 or 5'8.

Some tall women will. The 6'0" + guy is senior to a 5'9" guy in a woman's mind. Allthough a lot of bimbo women say the guys they date height must be 6'2" and above but if she's 1/2" shorter than you, she'll be too stupid to tell how tall you are.

Yes it's a very common height, around here people say that the "average joe" (medelsvensson) is 180CM, thin and blonde.

Quote from: 123 on December 10, 2014, 02:44:08 AMHmm the average height for in my country is almost the same as in Sweden and I don't feel short at all, hmmmmmm, crazy crazy 

Don't know where you're from but I don't feel that short either. We're not giants just a few CM (maybe 3-4) taller on average.

For the young crowd the average height in USA goes up to 5ft11 at least. Look at this, in USA when race and age is controlled the average height goes up: U.S.   178.9 cm (5 ft 10 1⁄2 in)   White Americans, 20–39     2003-2006


This is from 2003-2006, so you could see why I think that 10 years later the average for 18-20 year olds has gone up to at least 181. Also when you go to parties the average height goes up even more because on average shorter people are less popular and stay in more. Sorry if I hit any tickle bones but I just want everyone to know the truth and not be deluded.
