Oh, and short people tend to live longer.

Yeah I've heard this too. With shorter people the heart doesn't have to work as hard to get blood to the appendages. Makes sense if you think about it.

Okay a woman of 5' 8 is not going to want a man of 5' 8 as a woman will wear heels bringing her to a height of 5' 11 - if a woman of 5' 2 wears heels a man of 5' 8 is still going to be taller than her....now do you understand :) Short women have an abundance of choice....... they should date the short arses and leave the tall men for tall women...instead of mixing their inferior short genes in with tall genes :)))))

But 5' 8 is around average height for a man and tall for a women, the question is about tall men or short women. The way i see it their equal.

The size of your wallet is more important than height.

5' 8 is short - not average, I'd say 5' 10 is average but still quite short IMO.

the question is about tall men or short women. The way i see it their equal.

At the end of the say some people like midgets and others like tall people.

You're okay, you're a guy there are plenty of little women out there :)

ok now I see where you're coming from, I thought you just had something against tall men. Still it shouldn't matter who's taller between the two..it should be about compatibility.

The French are Latin people, not Germanics.

And Serbs are the tallest people. Notice most of the NBA recruits players from Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia when they go to Europe.

I'm not Polish (although I've been told I look Polish many times)
I am Dutch, and I am considered short compared to other Dutch women - I'm 167cm barefoot. :/ ...my mom(161ft.), and I are the shortest women in the family (lol). :( *whimpers* Cursed with the short gene, lol.

oops (161cm) hehe

Hi,

I'm really into Polish, Italian. and Russian chicks (Polish especially, hence why I'm here xD), but I'm wondering if my height relative to most of them would be short? I'm around 5 foot 6 or so in the evening (which is I think around 1.68, 1.69 meters). I mean, I'm Indian, so I'm not going to be super tall, but I was wondering how tall I'd be compared to most girls in Poland. Btw, I'm 18, so how tall are most polish girls around my age?

I have never given it any thought, I'd be shocked if I met a girl taller than myself.

Living in Germany for a very long time and travelling regularly to Poland (Kraków), I can definitely say that German women are taller by about 2-3 cm. At least here in western Germany.

I have never felt height to be an issue. But I have only ever dated one girl taller than me. Maybe it's just a personal taste issue.

I calculated it.Average height of polish women under 25 years old is 1.68 cm.Most(40%) fall between 165-170 cm.
25% are 160-165 cm and 25% 170-175cm.10% is over 175 cm.1% is over 180 cm.0.05% is over 185 cm and 0.002% is over 190 cm.

This means that polish women are among the tallest in Europe.Only swedish,dutch(average 172 cm),czech and serbian women are taller.
