20 and 6' 1/2"

I'd say I was 6' 1", but then someone would come along who was 6' 1" and they would be taller than me.

192 cm (give or take), I'm quite tall, which can a problem sometimes (like when I try to find clothes that fit).

5'8".

Taller than most for a girl, but still short enough it bothers me.

On the contrary, says Catullus, although my verses are soft (molliculi ac parum pudici in line 8, reversing the play on words), they can arouse even limp old men. Should Furius and Aurelius have any remaining doubts about Catullus' virility, he offers to fuck them anally and orally to prove otherwise." - Catullus 16, Wikipedia

Just under 6'1", or c. 184 cm. I've been this tall since I was 14 years old, when I weighed 145 lbs. 20 years and 35 pounds later, I almost look normal.

In the old style of measurements, I'm between 5'9 and 5'11.

Without all those "Imperial" entanglements that's between 179.832 cm and . . . 155.75 cm (wtf mate?)

In proper measurements, I'm 1.

5'9" or 5'10", roughly. The nurse at the doctor's office claims I'm 5'7", but my dad's 5'9" and I'm a smidge taller than he is, so she doesn't know what she's talking about. And I doubt I'll grow any more.

6'2" and I don't feel like converting. I might grow a shade more, but unlikely (I'm 17).

I have problems driving my Mom's Thunderbird. Even with the seat all the way back and down, my legs are still bent pretty far. It's uncomfortable, but her car is fun as hell to drive, so I deal with it.

5'4" at 20 years. It's not bad being short, but there are the occasional bookshelves at work that I need to break out a ladder to get to.

5' 9" or 175/6cm which seems to be a relatively common height 'round here.

In the UK I believe the average height for a male is something like 5'8 or 5'9".

6'3''. About 190cm, I think. 150lbs, I'm tall, lanky, and would almost be gawky if not for my extreme sexiness.
