I wish he wouldn't have said "I'm still waiting for the growth spurt" with a depressing fist pump.

Shoulda said "That's cool I don't lick paste anyhow" or "Nice roots bish"

5'7" is manlet for any "non-Asian" country. In places like Nepal, 5'7" would be around average.

For me, this is the manlet/manmore scale

very short = under 5'5"
short = 5'5" to 5'8"
average = 5'9" to 5'10"
fairly tall = 5'11" to 6'1" (I am here)
tall = 6'2" to 6'3"
very tall = 6'4" to 6'6"
gigantic = 6'7"

5’7 in the US is definitely short. I’m 5’11 but in most settings, that’s barely average. 6’2 plus is when you are in the tall category. 5’10-6’1 these days appear to be very average.

a real 5ft7 is noticeable short. Most 5ft5 guys claim 5ft7 though
I am 5ft9 and so many 5ft9 guys claim 5ft10-11
I have a 5ft9 friend that tries to claim 5ft11 and we are even height


At 5ft9 I feel average 99% of the time
5ft7 is life on hard mode
5ft5 is game over

If you live in an area with a high Hispanic and/or Asian population you will probably be comfortably average or slightly above average. However if you live in a predominantly white area you are going to feel short. This is assuming of course you are actually 5’7, lots of guys 5’5-5’6 range try to claim 5’7 which is a bit annoying.I’ve met several people who insist that I am 5’9 because they either don’t know their own height or they are used to really short guys claiming to be 5’7 or 5’8.
Lmao I know these feels. I'm 5'7 but surprisingly, people don't usually give me chit about my height. They actually claim that I'm frauding in the reverse direction when I say I'm 5'7 and say some chit like, "no way, you're like 5'8.5 or 5'9 AT LEAST".

But anyway, OP, 5'7 is definitely short and manlet status, albeit king of manlets. It's the height where people will say you're either short or at "below average height" at best, but just above being retardedly short that people really start to question your manhood. Like I feel bad for my friends that are legitimately 5'5 or whatever. That's like average female height and they're ****ed even if 5'4 girls wear heels. While it's not ideal to be 5'7, it hasn't prevented me from making gains in the gym or being 6'8 on my bank account, so idrc if certain women aren't into me because I'm shorter than them. I like petite girls anyway.

"Oh why are they more taller on average?"

"Oh nutrition blah blah blah"

"Oh genetics blah blah blah"

Genetics and nutrition my as* ���������������� �

(Also, it's just statistics. In reality, most dudes in those countries are between 5'6 and 5"10 - don't be fooled by a small group who specifically follow you around on some days because they think you're a "new person", as opposed to somebody who has lived in their own country for decades. JFL at people who think born and bred citizens are "new people" everyday)
who cares about the rest of the world. here in the US, anything under 5'9 is below average
