Am I short? 5'7

Hi there!

I'm 16 and 5'8 and 5'9 in shoes.Is that by any chance short? Also, do I have time to grow?

My dads 5'5 inches and my mum is 5 feet.
Girls, what do you think of a guy that is 5'8 inches?

EDIT: I'm 17 now and I grew an inch. Now im 5'9 and 5'10 in shoes.

Yes you may still be growing.

I'm fine with that height, I'm super short anyway. So it's highly unlikely I'd meet a guy I found too short.
You're alright mate, maybe ever so slightly short, but you're very close to average.

You'll live.

My cousins are 6ft+, I'm the one that's the shortest. I'm Bengali so I'd probably get married to a Bengali...who is short.
