Real height average (Europe)

Edit Post

I don't understand why you guys care so much about being compared to others. Sure it sucks that I wasn't born Tom Brady with his amazing genes, but so what?

Advice to those in this community and those who like to lurk: there's much more to life than height, and if anything it goes on for like millions of others who are your height or shorter. Don't take what is posted in this forum too seriously as the hard truth of real life. I said this once, I'll say it again just because of what this thread turned into (lol), this is an echo-chamber.

Yes you are, and if you're going to live your life based on how others live it, height will be the last thing on your mind. Prepare for a miserable existence.

I have started to read you  carefully, Alu, just think that this complex is difficult to overcome. I am happy you could overcame this complex.

CRonnie7 is a narcissist who likes to think he's the best, biggest and most beautiful man in the world. Of course he's insecure deep inside, but that's not a standard you should orient yourself by. Other guys are shorter and are totally okay with their height, and are seen as manly men by most people. Please don't exaggerate and be a drama queen here. Tall people exist and it's part of being a man to accept that you will not be the tallest guy on earth.

This Cronnie7 thing is funny. I'm sure he uses lifts like Trump and other tall guys.

Heights are exaggerated everywhere.
 As a rule of thumb, subtract 2 inches from a man's claimed height, and 3 inches from that of a woman's.

From my own observations, I would say 5'9 is average in both Europe and the U.S.
