Personally i thought i was tall...I am about 5ft 6 or 7. But my friend turned round to me the other day while i was commenting on the tall jeans and she said well your not really all that tall.
So what height ?:confused3

[This is my opinion, not fact]
It depends on how old you are, and you gender.
For a guy who's about 17, 5 ft 7 would be medium and maybe a little short.
But if he was 5 ft 3, that'd be short. Obviously, anything above 6ft is kinda tall.
If you're a girl, and you're 13 and about 5 ft 8, yeah that's tall for your age. That's a normal height for a 17 year old.

Well 'tall' is very subjective. It's really based on your height and what you see when you look up, down, or straight at a person.

I am short... 5'3" or so. But it comes in handy during volleyball because I sneak around and those girls didn't know what was coming...
It is fine for me. I have been 5'3" since 7th grade, I know I'm not growing anymore. I will always be a chipmunk (at school we call short people this)...
Aw well :confused3

I'm about 5ft3 and used to hate being so short. However I just got over it and liked my size. Anyway when we had our "mystery reports" done on us (someone critiques us and sends in a report to our boss) she had to describe me and the report said "very short" Everyone laughed at that. I'm NOT *that*short.
Anyway to me anyone I have to look up at is tall. :lmao: but if I had to descibe someone, I'd say anything over 5ft10 for a woman and 6ft for a man would be tall.

Interesting..I don't think i know too many people here over 6 ft...maybe one or two.
Where did you find the national average for america? Do you think there is one for the Uk?

I'm 6'0 and I consider myself fairly tall. It's relative though-I only consider myself tall because there are not many people who are taller.

I'm a 13 year old girl in seventh grade and I'm 5 foot 8 inches! Also, I'm considered tall for my age! Every grade that I've been in, I've always been the tallest girl in my class!
(Exciting, Ehh?)
I think that anything below 4 foot 9 inches is short, anywhere from 5 foot to 5 foot 4 inches is medium, and anything above 5 foot 5 inches is tall!
PS: I know that I am tall for my age!

I'm average. My parents are both tall, so I will be tall.
