How tall are you ?

[Maciamo]

Just wondering what the forum population's average height is...

I am 1m90

 

[kirei_na_me]

Well, I thought in centimeters I was 165, but that only comes out to 5'4" (a little over). I'm a little over 5'5", so I'm thinking I would be more like 168 cm. This foot/inch thing really irritates me! Why can't we be like the rest of the world and use the Metric system? Anyway...

I'm so short
1m65 only and I'm sure I'm not making mistake on conversion

 

[neko_girl22]

In NZ I was very short, here in Japan I just fit in!

[playaa]

I am 5'11 so I am not sure of this in cm?

 

[kirei_na_me]

My husband is 165 cm and he's shorter than me by about an inch, maybe a tad more than an inch. Sometimes, I wish I could wear my 3.5/4 inch heels and still be shorther than the person I'm with...

 

[RockLee]

You're same height as me.

It's true, we shrink with age!!

Always was 5ft8in and at 50 started with the age &
spinal shrinking bit. Now at 54 , down to 5FT 7IN; if I live long enough, might make it to dwarfdom!

By then, there might be a role for you as a Munchkin in the re-make of the "Wizard of Oz".

I thought Americans also used the metric system for sciences. :?

Anyhow, 1 foot = 30,48 cm and 1 inch = 2,54 cm. I think that the height in cm is more accurate than in inches.

Back in the 1970s, Randy Newman had a song called "Short People".

It was pretty funny, but also touching.

Yes, people in the medical field and other science fields use the metric system, but generally, it's not taught in our school systems. At least, it's not taught anywhere around here. Maybe they spend 10 minutes on it one year and that's all. I think it's a real handicap, because everybody else in the world uses it, and yes, I also feel it is more accurate.
