I am taking you seriously and ignoring your bit of sarcasm. Now, you know very well how much girls like tall guys, so I won't go into that spiel. But you won't stop growing until about age 25. So, if you are now 93% of your adult height, you will be over 6 feet 4 inches (someone correct me if you have better figures). So congratulations! Because, again as you probably know, tall males do better in nearly all parameters of success in life.
So, if you are having trouble matching up with girls you might consider changing your style, your attitude, and your behavior. Unless you weigh 300 pounds or more, eat lots of garlic, are a religious fanatic, behave like an oaf, and failed eighth grade, you merely need to wait for Nature to do its work for you. At 17, however, you are still below the median for normal, if you understand me here. Have your condoms ready for you never know.
Learn to flirt with your eyes and communicate with your facial expression. Smile appropriately. Have a list of conversational gambits ready, and don't be afraid to approach likely girls "cold."

You’re taller than average in every country in the world. Height is not the only thing that matters, trust me, if you are ugly looking or if you behave like a douchebag, height won’t help you. I’m 6’2 and I know many guys who are taller than me, but girls don’t find them attractive because they are either ugly as hell or have horrible personality. There are many things that are more important than height.
SIX PATHETIC FEET AND THREE TINY LITTLE INCHES?
Oh man, your life must suck Gulliver's balls! While all the other kids take the school bus, you probably have to ride to school on a chihuahua's back every day. Sounds badass in a way, but I'm just some crazy weirdo, so my view on it doesn't count. I feel for you though. I really do. I'd pat you on the shoulder now, but I have a bad back and can't bent down that much.

Alright, enough with the sarcasm. Just open your eyes and compare your height to the majority of other guys your age. You can't possibly be serious with your question. "Midget"...
Pfft, are you kidding me? You're practically a midget. Most girls will accept NO LESS than 8'0", and even that's being generous.

Haha.
Anyway, 6'1" is slightly tall. While not tall enough to be particularly impressive, it certainly is tall enough to be considered tall. You are definitely not short.
I feel like too tall would be too much, but noticeably taller than me is really nice. I don't want to have to crane my neck. You're a pretty good height, in my opinion. (5'6)

Lenghtening surgery? Are you stupid? That is stupid, even if you vwre short. It would make your proportions look odd.
You are tall. Like seriously tall so no needdude... im 6'0 foot and have never had tht problem... are you going after amazon women or some shit haha?
I totally dig on taller men. No stress Hun! I say its a win on your half. You'll still young, at the age of 17 girls generally like older guys because women mature faster... but once you blossom into your full blown man stage I'd bet you a good dollar that you'll have a lot of ladies digging your height :)
CHEERSIt can be intimidating to some girls. Personally, although I really like tall guys, your height is a bit too tall for me since I'm only 5'2, but a lot of eastern european girls are tall so you'll have better luck there. Like my Russian and Ukrainian friends are all 5'8 or 5'9 and they are all hot and super nice so you'll definitely find someone :)
Dang, the tallest guy I've ever met was 6'5. I can't imagine what 6'11 looks like. And I don't mean that in a negative way.
If girls seem to be afraid of you then it seems more likely that you have an intimidating demeanor. Height can intimidate some people but I doubt that your height would frighten girls to the point that they'd write you off as undateable.Umm, I hope you're not trolling because that is pretty tall not super tall but tall enough for most girls. I'm not saying all will say you're tall enough since I know some girls who are your height but you're 17 you might have a little more to inches to go. :)
Here is a chart of the average heights in the world
en.wikipedia.org/.../Template:Average_height_around_the_world
185 cm is taller than the average height in all countries in the world.You might even consinder being too tall for some girls :') (nothing personal!!) You have a great height and you should not worry about it at all.
Aw, no. You're not. 5'11" is the perfect height for guys. 5'9" is about average. 6'0 or above is tall.
I think your height is perfectly fine! No need for drastic measures like surgery ;)
No, 6"1 is tall enough. There are so many guys who are 5"7-5"8. Imagine how they feel.
No! No surgeries needed. 6'1" is tall, mate. Not all guys are blessed with that height :)
I'm 6'11'' and all the guys are shorter than me hahaha you're kidding right?
- u
Yes, it's all. I am also 6'1". You are under 18 so you may have a couple of years left of growing.
I love guys that are taller than me or at least my height. Never be ashamed for your height, it's an amazing feature. by the way I'm 5'6 and half so being tall really is a good thing
Woah! You're very tall at least for me but I'm sure tall girls will not see you're height as a negative :) They'll love it!
I love tall guys and im pretty sure a lot of girls feel the same way. But if your weight doesn't balance out, it could be unattractive
Naw... You're fine man. Plus, It's okay to be a 17 year old virgin. At least you're not a shorty like me. 4'11". :P
you're tall! dont worry so much about it. I've known a couple guys who were 7'0"+ and they were just too tall! haha
5' 10" I can't walk unless I wear heels so I need him to be tall or else we're going to look like the same height.
