Can Americans even count. I've never seen someone taller than 6'1, usa average height is lower than my country's, and yet I hear stories of giants and girls fucking their uberchads bfs

[-]

_Diggus_Bickus_@reddit

You have never seen anyone taller than 6'1? Is that bait?

[-]

Jumugen@reddit

the issue is that americans are not that tall on average yet all their stories have some 6'5 dude in them, which is very unlikely to happen

[-]

Techno-Diktator@reddit

Gen Z is actually taller on average now, especially the younger portion of it, giants are much more common.

[-]

Jumugen@reddit

thats true for every place on earth, yet only in american stories everyone is somehow 6'5

Is it really that hard to admit a height obsession?

[-]

I don't really see it that often in stories tbh, but also most people are shit at estimating height, especially of people much taller than them. Nowadays really tall means around 6'5, so if someone sees a really tall person they assume around that height even if it's less or more

[-]

Skull_kids@reddit

I'm 6'1", hardly go out, and see someone taller than me fairly frequently.

[-]

xtraSleep@reddit

Yeah I don’t know what people are talking about. You go to any gym you will see someone 6’2+.

[-]

aaaaabasdaz_@reddit

U sure its not cuz its easier to notice people taller than you? Easier to keep count on people taller than u rather than the other way around

[-]

Skull_kids@reddit

I'm not saying that they are not rare, relatively, but they are common enough to be seen every day.

[-]

Baxterftw@reddit

It's hard for him to tell since he's 5'2"

[-]

Gaitville@reddit

Yea sure, OP might be 5’2” wearing their 7inch heels

Less_Inspector_2557@reddit

A lot of guys lie about their height so it skews the perception. 6'5 is much taller than people think.

[-]

HonkLoudandProud@reddit

I'm a real 6"3 and I have not met many people who are actually taller than me. 6"5 is so extremely rare.

[-]

Less_Inspector_2557@reddit

Yeah less than 0.5% of the population in the US are 6'5 or taller.

[-]

encrustingXacro@reddit

So you're telling me that I WON'T be able to get myself a 6'5" giantess gf?

[-]

Burrito_Salesman@reddit

Keep up hope, look for Amazonian women in the gym.

[-]

Less_Inspector_2557@reddit

Not with that attitude you won't

[-]

_TheRealist@reddit

I’m 6’3” and have met multiple people taller than me

[-]

Fit_Professional1916@reddit

Yeah my husband is 6'3" and he is the shortest of his brothers and has two friends taller than him, and I have known several other peoplehis height and above. And we aren't even Dutch.

[-]

_TheRealist@reddit

I’m Aussie and the usual height here is probably 6” I’d estimate. Most of the blokes I work with are taller than me

[-]

HonkLoudandProud@reddit

Hence why I said not many.

[-]

BjornAltenburg@reddit

It's darn near .5% of the pouplation that are even 6 foot 4 and above. The only dudes legit over 6'5 I knew were all on my college basketball team.

[-]

Robert999220@reddit

Im legitimately 6'3, my roomate is 6'5, first time in a LONG time ive felt 'short', 6'5 is indeed massive.

[-]

DSMPWR@reddit

I'm 6'4'' and rarely see someone taller than me in my town.

[-]

iMisstheKaiser10@reddit

I’m like 6’4 and a half but I round it up to 6’5 because it’s the equivalent of still saying to people “I’m 24 and half!”

[-]

MajorNutt@reddit

Then you may as well round it up to 6'6 because it's exactly in between 6 and 7.

[-]

TheBaconator16@reddit

I am 6'6" but i tell people im 6' to mess with people.

[-]

sneedtizen@reddit

I am 1.74m but everyone fucking thinks I am 1.80m. Idk why

[-]

sharknice@reddit

That's illegal. When you're 24 and a half you don't say you're 25.

[-]

2Monke4you@reddit

You round in the direction that is more convenient to you. Height? Round up. Age? Round down.

[-]

Glad-Pizza5435@reddit

[-]

UsrnameInATrenchcoat@reddit

I'm 6'1 but 7'2 with shoes, and 6'4 with heels

[-]

mondo_juice@reddit

Yeah, my brother is 6’ 4” and I’m 6’. People think that I’m tall, and then I pull up with the bro.

“Are you seven feet tall??”

Some of y’all never played basketball in your life and it shows lol

[-]

fuckitsayit@reddit

6/5 is literally NBA height

[-]

DefinitelyNotPine@reddit

and how does that fly. You know your height, if you can do the bare minimum eye measures you can tell someone's height

[-]

killahtomato@reddit

6'3" myself it's not common but does happen. We grow em tall round here I guess.

Just say you wanted to find a reason to whine about Americans. It’s disturbing YOU HAVE to come on American sites to let them know what you think

[-]

BadB0ii@reddit

my housemate/ coworker is 6'5

[-]

MalekithofAngmar@reddit

Jeez really? I’ve met a lot of people over 6’2 even.

[-]

saargrin@reddit

Ive definitely seen people taller than 1.95 in the us

[-]

Darko---@reddit

I cringed but gauging a person's rage is almost as important as gauging skill or strength. If you're not as angry or even more angry you need to really think about what you're about to do.

[-]

Nutaholic@reddit

I've never seen someone 6'5

My country is taller than the USA

Lmao, what? I see multiple people who are 6'5" every week.

[-]

BjornAltenburg@reddit

Stats wise, it is rare, but taller people tend to be richer. I've met a few women back home in North Dakota who were 6 feet tall. I knew 3 men in my high school class to be 6'3 6'2 and 6'4.

[-]

champs@reddit

Being 6’0, my neighbors don’t even clock as “tall,” but they are two gentlemen… married to each other… and they’re both 6’3. Subset of a subset, and there are two of them. Not exactly unicorns.

[-]

Filoleg94@reddit

I’ve never seen anyone taller than 6’1

Lmao what? How? Did you just refuse to go outside? Even my old semi-rural high school in GA had miltiple of those. Did your school not have a basketball team?

Ffs, I am 6ft, and even in Japan it would take me less than 10 minutes of walking outside to see multiple people taller than me, let alone in any major US city.

Even without anecdotes, are you familiar with how statistical normal distribution works? If the average male height in the US is 5’10, then people between 6’1 and 6’4 fall just under the 1st standard deviation, which would make them around 13.6% of the population. If you combine everyone 6’1 and taller, they would make around 15.9%. That’s more frequent than 1 out of every 7 men who would statistically be 6’1 and above, if the average male height is set at 5’10.

TLDR: anon cannot into stats and doesn’t realize that a normal distribution set at average being 5’10ft for men would result in more than 1 out of 7 men being 6’1 or taller.

Inb4 “the average is achtually 5’9, not 5’10”, then sure, it would make more than 1 out of 7 men being 6’ or taller instead lol.

UniversityEastern542@reddit

I've never seen someone taller than 6'1

You must live with African pygmies or something. 6'1" is tall but not ridiculously tall.

[-]

XenOptiX@reddit

My best friend is unironically 6’5”, he’s a giant. Is it rare as shit that anyone’s near his height? Oh for sure. But people like that do exist.

[-]

eternaltroll@reddit

I’m 6’2 I see people taller than me all the time living in the US

That’s not how averages work.

[-]

big_whistler@reddit

I’ve known at least 5 people who are 6’6

[-]

Potatoboi17@reddit

I used to have a fucked up sense of what average height was because my dad is 6’5, so I assumed 6’ was average. According to my dad, the men in our bloodline have always been tall. Also, I’ve seen people pushing above 6’5”. Shit’s crazy.

[-]

TheWorldEndsWithCake@reddit

While their public education is meme-tier, that’s in the ballpark of 1/1000 Americans, it’s not unrealistic. What you’re seeing is a combination of:

Natural selection. Wealth and attractiveness correlate, and these people pick attractive partners.
Bimodal distribution. Averages don’t capture the difference between highly wealthy Americans, who have many generations of selecting for aesthetic preferences, and their malnourished extreme poor.
Copium fantasy. If you’re negatively obsessed with being short, you might dream about “winning” by beating up a tall “crush’s chad BF”.
The tall gigachads have your mother come over, why would they descend into her basement?

Also it could be literally any country where students live off campus, the post doesn’t specify Burgerstan.

OP is a very tiny man with huge complex writing his own fanfic

[-]

Gaitville@reddit

The story is actually partly true except anon is the manlet not the security guard in the story. The real ending is when the manlet rage hits anon gets his ass whooped by the boyfriend and security throws anon to the curb for causing trouble.

NEURALINK_ME_ITCHING@reddit

I know an American marine who travelled to Japan in order to find a sub five foot partner, and his kids are all half asian half little people five foot oompas.

Not related to this... but also he thinks Australians hate him, because he has typical seppo self and social awareness stats at zero.

Perhaps seppos aren't as regarded as we thought.
