In Japan, the average height is 5'2". I'd say anywhere below 4'10" is short, and anywhere above 5'6" is tall. Nothing wrong with being short or tall or average. They're just numbers. :-)

I'm sure you wouldn't date guy who is 4'10"

@Prochto Height is not a problem for me. If that guy made me smile and laugh and had a positive personality, sure I would! :-) I would say the same thing to a guy who was 5'4" or a guy who was 6'2", and I have.

most Japanese people i know are around 150cm below 130cm would be short and over 180cm be tall

150cm? No way! That's much below the average, which is officially 172. I

For women, 5'2'' is about average.
For men, 5'7'' is about average.

And 5'9"+?

[Aizou]

That's above average height.
