How tall is tall?

I was reading a thread about height and this question came up in my mind.
So, how tall is tall?
I'm 5' 10", is that tall? average? or short?

6' + I would classify as tall.

anyone taller than me = tall

Ok as a serious answer it depends on gender, i'd say 5"7 is tall for a girl, 6"0 is tall for a guy.

I'm only 5'4 and i consider that extremely short! But my mum is 5'7 and she says shes just abover average so i think 6'+ is tall. My brother is about 6'2 and he towers over me :frown:

5'4 isn't that short for a girl. Most blokes prefer shorter girls anyway. Anything over 5 foot is great.

id say over 6ft,

For females I'd say 5ft7/8+ is tall. For males, about 6ft+ is tall.

I am one of the shortest in my year though (11) and it doesn't help being overweight :p:

IMO-
girls: 5'6" = average, 5'8"+ = tall
boys: 5'10 = average, 6 ft + = tall

I'd say over 5ft 7 for a girl and 6ft for a guy.

I'm 5ft 10 though so maybe my perception is a bit warped.

Does height matter anyway? I know some people are really funny about it but I don't judge the opposite sex on it anyway.

Well I'm tall for a girl lol, but for a guy I'm short.......5'7.3" according to the electronic scales at my gym.

A lot of guys might not want to date a girl who is taller than them......not me though, I don't mind, but if they wore heels as well that just adds insult to injury lol.
