Just wondering what the forum population's average height is...
I am 1m90
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? :mad: Anyway...
I'm so short :(
1m65 only and I'm sure I'm not making mistake on conversion :bawling:
Dreamer you are not short!! I am 160cm!!!
In NZ I was very short, here in Japan I just fit in! :p
but nzueda i ththink dreamer is a boy (aren't you?)....as for me i'm 1.72m tall (5"7 i think)
I am 5'11 so I am not sure of this in cm?
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...
I'm 175cm :bluush:

You're same height as me.
Sie sind ein grosse fraulein!
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. :?Quote:

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.Quote:

i've been trying to learn metric units for awhile now. i can for the most part freely convert speed, distance, weight, height and temperature between the two. but most of it is still relative to me, as im not quite sure what the metric measurement is until its converted into american units.
how troublesome... well... I never learned bout inches etc... so I actually... don't really know how much they are? '-'
hmm.. song bout short people... *sighs* at least I'm not the only one in this world... ^^
I love a short woman!!Quote:

Well, I'm 6-2, and I'm proud to be non-metric! :D

I find it ODD...well that's the least to say....America's education standards aren't THAT great I suppose :souka:
Heh...chibi has taken on a whole new meaning now... :blush:
Well, Rock, I've done pretty good so far, educationwise, so I can't complain!
hmm... chibi has a new meaning? '-' ???
They're not quite right. For example, 175 is closer to 5'8" than 5'9".Quote:
