is that only done on children? hmm, didn't know that.
I just figured cause of the growth plate and all.
Just googled. Apparently you can have it as an adult.
They break your legs and they are stretched and reset and you go through a painful 3 month recovery....to gain one inch.
So for every inch you want....3 months of pain.

You've hung out with me, you really see me hoochie-ing it up at a poolbar in a bikini getting drunk?
Imagine walking around Hi-Fi, but in a bikini, and tell me if you think you would like it!

Those clubs make me feel old

Anything below 6ft is short for a dude. Sorry, y'all.

So you're only short or tall and if you're 5'11" you're short? Makes sense.

I'd say 6'2" for guys and 5'9" for girls. Almost everyone is shorter than me though so I'm not sure if I'm the best judge.

Anything less than 6"0 is short, 6"0-6"2 is normal, 6"3 and up is tall.

I just don't consider 6 foot on a man that tall.
So it is tall, just not that tall.

To me...tall means you are taller than average.
Given the fact that the average american male is shorter than 6', we have confirmation that this height is tall.

6'2" for men
5''9" for women
Unless you live in Lafayette, land of the dwarfs.

I'm proud to be tall. Love it and embrace it.

I don't think that you're looking at it the right way. You can't take an absolute average and say anything above that is tall and anything below is short. You have to look at a range. If you consider tall to be maybe the tallest 20% and short the shortest 20%, my guess is that tall for man would be over 6'2 and short is under 5'6. Just a guess.
For a woman I'd guess that 5'7 or 5'8 would be tall.
