Most short (< 5'3") girls prefer really tall (> 6') guys for some reason. A short guy will have better luck with a girl that's average height.

I just hurts when I try to approach girls. Girls like taller guys. But 5'7 isn't the end of the world . My coworker, who is 5'4 had a hot girlfriend who is taller than him.


Why worry about it? You can't change your height. I'm on the shorter side too. Doesn't matter as long as they find you attactive and interesting.

Frick women that say they have to have a man at such and such height. Their judgement probably isn't the greatest in the first place if she's eliminating a significant portion of her dating pool by that much right off the bat.

I was chubby in middle school. Being short and fat is one of the worst combinations a boy can go through .

Sounds like you need to man the frick up and not give a shite if people think you're short. You can't change your height, so own it.

Exactly. I'm up north right now and when I go to the bar in a pearl snap and boots my height suddenly doesn't matter. I've had more luck out here than anywhere else, by far.

I think by Government data, 5'8 is the average american male.

With all those short cajuns running around LSU campus I figured 5'7 would be average.

FTR, no OT Baller is under 6'1.

Northern chicks (especially in Wisco) are 100% cooler than southern chicks.

At 5' 10 inches I was the second shortest guy in my graduating class.

Its been a few years and I'm a little under 6ft barefoot with a shaved head. In boots I still find myself looking up with a lot of guys.

5' 7 isn't that bad. Get yourself a tall woman and have kids.

Fine too, they must be hiding them up here. There are three pretty well-known porn stars from the town I'm in alone.

If Wisconsin wasn't so fricking cold, I would move there tomorrow. Literally the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life.

Im 5'7. And there are short girls, but Ive always been emasculated by girls taller then me. But I have the hots for girls an inch shorter then me. Perfect height.

Or is it average? Walking on campus and a few girls are taller then me...

For a guy, 5'7" is short. No crime in it, but it's under the 50th percentile. Not absurdly short, but short.
