Do you think 6'0"/183 cm on a Western man is tall or medium height?

[Anonymous]

I think 6'0" is tall on a man.

I think 6'0" is 'average' on a man.

I think 6'0" is short on a man.

I always thought it was tall but I guess it is average. Kids are taller today. I think it is from all the radiation.

Thanks for the MHO😎

I would say medium. For me 185 is "medium-tall" and tall starts from circa about 188 cm.

[WonderBell99]

Uh who says 6’0 ISN’T tall? Compared to me, even 5’8 is TALL. I’m 5’2. Generally speaking, 6’0 is tall.

But relatively? If you stand besides a 6’7 man, you would appear shorter.

[Cubus]

You're Indian. Indians are on average short, compared to Europeans.

[WonderBell99]

@Cubus The average height in the U. S. A is 5’9”. I can confidently say that anyone who’s 6’0 is well above average.

I don’t get how MY ethnicity comes into play here. Only 15% of men in the U. S. A are 6’0 and above. Generally speaking, 6’0 IS tall. It MAY be the average in Scandinavian countries.

[WonderBell99]

And in India, the average height for an Indian male is 5’8” which isn’t “short”.

@Cubus irrelevant

@WonderBell99
The average in the US for men *under 35* is statistically said to be 5'10". But that includes all races of men, including Chinese descent men and Hispanics, most of which are Mexicans, and both groups are super-short, like 5'7"-5'8". The majority of American men, white and black men, realistically are like, six feet tall most of the time. When you see them in real life. But according to "statistics" (not real life), they're still 5'10". Meaning, to many people, six feet isn't very tall at all for a man. I wanted to see what others thought.

[WonderBell99]

Most decent women won’t care much about height (as long as you are taller than them). A lot of them would want their partner to be taller than them, but not like crazy tall. Not everyone wants a guy who is six foot.

[WonderBell99]

I don’t think you should worry this much about your height.. 6’0 is well above average and it is the average for men in many Scandinavian and European countries where people are very very tall.

[Cubus]

It's because in USA there are many Asians and Latinos who are on averege shorter than Europeans. If you look only on "European American" males, then they are 5'10 on average, so similar to Europe. Asians and Latinos underrepresent this stat.

In Europe average height for males varies from 5'9 (medditerain countries like Portugal, Spain or Italy) to 5'11 in Netherlands, Scandinavian countries, and former Yugoslavia. So in comparision to Europe 5'8 is short.

@WonderBell99
I'm not six feet. I'm shorter than that. I was just asking. In my experience, women don't want men under six feet.

[WonderBell99]

That’s a load of BS. I don’t care about my man’s height as long as he’s taller than me. I’m quite short. Won’t be a problem for me if he’s below 6’0 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Asker]

@WonderBell99
And what if he was shorter than you? You can't imply women don't care about height, while also implying you care about it a lot and that a man has to be taller than you. Plenty of women are 5'8" to 5'11" barefoot, and even taller in heels. What if you were 5'10" barefoot?

[AviatorTom]

Average adult male height for various countries ranges from 5-4 to 5-11, so 6-0 would be considered tall just about everywhere.

[Asker]

In The Netherlands, 6'0" would actually be considered short. More so in the Dinaric Alps.

[AviatorTom]

From the research I did, The Netherlands is the country with the tallest average male height, at 5-11, just under 6 feet

[Asker]

My data says their height is basically 6'1", which would be 184 cm.

And Montenegro being the second tallest country in the world.
The US has some of the shortest men of any first world country, being 177 cm, which is under 5'10" (5'10" solid being 178 cm). Americans rank 42nd overall, meaning most third-world countries in Europe have taller and healthier people than the short Americans.

taller than the average or the medium, so it is NOT medium

[Anonymous]
