| Radek said: So I've been having really hard time accepting my body for few months now, mainly my height as it's something I cannot change. As a male from European country I'm no doubt shorter than average guy by few inches. Anyway, I thought of making this thread to find out how tall VGChartz members from all over the world are. I ask you to post your height, your gender and your age, because as we all know males usually grow until age of 21, while females usually stop growing at the age of 18. I will start... I'm a male, 23 years old and I'm barely 5'8" or 173 cm. [Please ignore the poll, I accidentaly published it when it was unfinished and I can't edit it] |
I'm 173cm as well, from the Netherlands, 43 years old, will only get shorter from now on.
My solution, moving from a country with avg male height 183cm to Canada at 175cm average male height.
Just kidding, height had nothing to do with it. However I met my (now) wife online and we both got the conversion wrong. She expected me to be much shorter than her. 3 feet in a meter makes me 5.2 ft, erm no, big rounding error plus some idiot put 12 inches in a foot instead of 10. It was the early days of the internet where you didn't simply type 173cm in Google and get all the conversions in an instant. Ofcourse it also didn't pop up a ton of sites asking whether 173cm is short for a guy...
Want to feel like a giant, go to Indonesia, while Bosnia Herzegovina and The Netherlands seem to have the tallest people.
