Yea that's BS. Trust me I used to feel perpetually small since my dad is 6'7. I was standing in a packed area at the airport and noticed I was like a giant compared to most people at 6'1 barefoot (so 6'2 in shoes) Even in Vegas I was walking around genuinely taller than 95% of people.

If you're in a room of a random group of 20 people and you're legit 6'1, you're probably taller than 16 or 17 of them.

Of course you'll always come across guys a little taller than you or straight moggers daily if you're out a lot. I've come across a few females too that were around my height. But to think you're some sort of midget at a legit 6'0 is absurd and mental illness. You're just only focusing on the people you see that are close to you in height while disregarding all the other people you're taller than.
