tall or short
« on: August 21, 2013, 07:16:56 pm »
 ??? Do you consider someone who is 5 feet 7 inches tall as a short or a tall person?

I consider 5ft 7 in to be average tall. to me anyone who is 5 ft 2 in or under is short like me. Anyone is 6 ft and over is tall.
I did grow up with tall people . Everyone in my family was over 6ft except for me and mom :peace: :wave:

It would depend if its a man or a woman. I think a 5'7 woman is considered tall but a 5'7 man is considered between short and average. My husband is about 5'6 and compared to most other men he is short.

I am about 6' 4". So comparing myself to that, I am way taller. I think it depends on who you standing next to. So I would say 5' 7" is way too short. If you're standing next to me.

A person who is 5'7" is not really short, but not all that tall.  I am 5 feet, and my husband towers over me at 5'11".  My grandson's father is 5'5". which is shorter than 5'7".  My grandmother was 4'9". ??? ??? ??? :wave:

I'm 5' 2" and my husband is 6' 2". I agree that 5' 7" for a woman is average tall. I have a friend who's 5' 10" I call her my amazon friend.  ;D
