    I think I am pushing over 6'2" tall maybe smaller.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,682 ✭✭✭deisemum


    I'm 5'3", hubby is 5'10", 10 year old son is 5' and going on his height on his 2nd birthday he will probably be 6'4" when he's an adult.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,549 ✭✭✭scuba steve


    5'10 maybe 5'11

    between 5'10" and 5'11" I would say ... dunno.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,558 ✭✭✭netwhizkid


    Between 5feet 8inches and 5feet 9inches, It's a shame to see people using Imperial in this day and age.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,100 ✭✭✭muckwarrior


    5' 11" so just above average. AFAIK 5'10" is the average height in Ireland although some of my shortarse mates claim it's 5'8". Don't like chicks that are too tall, ideally 5' - 5' 6".

    im 5"8 but make up for it in other ways:D

    my gf is 5"7 which is about average for a woman.

    So with shoes(heels) on she is taller! :/
    182cm

    Around 5'11 I think.

    you're closer to 6 feet than 5'11



    I'm 1.74m (between 5.8 and 5.9)

    I'd love to be taller, 1.83m (6 feet) would be perfect for me, there are so many beautiful girls out there that are taller, that sucks, I'm uncomfortable standing next to them :(



    and here's a little table ;)

    metric system all the way! :D

    5.3 - 1.60m
    5.4 - 1.62.5m
    5.5 - 1.65m
    5.6 - 1.67m
    5.7 - 1.70m
    5.8 - 1.73m
    5.9 - 1.75m
    5.10 - 1.78m
    5.11 - 1.80m
    6 - 1.83m
    6.1 - 1.85m
    6.2 - 1.88m
    6.3 - 1.90m
    6.4 - 1.93m
    6.5 - 1.95m
    6.6 - 1.98m
    6.7 - just stop

    thanks for the info- i'm just learning about ireland. seems like a wonderful place.

    i think we are getting taller. my father is 6'3", and his was around 5'10", so at this pace, my grandchildren will be 7 feet tall.

    I remember in college learning that if your parents are tall (prob meant to be way above average) then you are more likely to be smaller than them and vice versa. I'm 6'1 and my dad is 5'11. My mates dad is 6'6 and he is "only" 6'2. But it has a lot to do with diets and now with better nutrition future generations should be taller.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 367 ✭✭40crush41


    I'm 168cm, I think that is about 5 foot 6 or there abouts, and I am one of those Aussies that eat Vegemite......

    Mmmmmmm, yum.

    I don't know how you do it!
    More power to you is all I got to say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,381 ✭✭✭snorlax

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,008 ✭✭✭rabbitinlights


    6'3". Ive a mate who is 6'7" and he finds it hard to get shoes and clothes to fit him correctly, he has to get loads of stuff refitted. Pretty annoying id imagine. Plus nearly every night we go out about 5 people come up to him and either say "how tall are you" or "Ive a mate whos taller than you" or the classic "wow, your tall."

    S.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 676 ✭✭✭Nickibaby*


    I'm 5 8" which is pretty tall for a female i guess but I love being tall, wouldnt go out with a fella who is shorter than me so can be a nuisance now and again!

    See what I mean!

    damn chicks, having a long thing is just not enough, you have to be tall, if they don't find any "defects" in your, then why aren't you driving 2006 BMW? and so on.... :mad:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 120 ✭✭Lady_Macbeth


    about 5' 4". It's cool, I am also one of those girls that go for tall partners; wouldn't go for someone smaller than me, and have always ended up around shoulder-level with a boyfriend. I like it that way. Tall men (ie any over 5'6", we'll say, to allow me wear heels....) are sexy.... :D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 176 ✭✭tinka


    i'm about 5'5". haven't measured myself in a while but i think i've stopped growing... i'd like to be a couple of inches taller but what can you do? i like tall guys but have been with short guys in the past. but yeah, i like tall guys :D
