Hmm. Is 6'0" even "tall" by today's standards?

Googled around a bit and saw that 6'3" is the average height for white males at age 25. Seems pretty tall to me, never would have guessed.

I don't think it is - I'm your height and most of my buddies are around my height or taller.

I don't believe this. 6"3' is probably in the top 5-10% of the general population.

If this is using the mean, I guess I could see how they arrive at it, however I'm sure the median height is probably 5'9 or 5'8".

EDIT: Duh, I'm an idiot - was using the 95 percentile curve.

EDIT2: Looks like 5'10" is about the average.

6'3 sounds a little high. I'm 6'4 and I tower over 99% of the guys at my school.

Intellectually, I understand why a guy might want someone prettier since it makes them appear of higher status, but daaaamn, guys put way too much stock into this.

Absolutely no way is 6'3" average. The average has gone up in recent years but its definitely not higher than 6'. Probably more like 5'10"-5'11"

Stick to shorter girlfriends, who will naturally assume you are wealthier.

I'm pretty sure this isn't right. I think it's something like 5'10".
