The new generations are the ones that raise the height of the countries.

I would say that most of them are between 5'11-6'' in USA

Those East African numbers are hard to believe. At least in Somalia I saw many 6'3 lanklets. Maybe ethiopians are dragging it down since they have like 10x our population.

Idk I’m 23 and most guys I see my age are 5’9 or so maybe one inch up or down or so. Even the guys that are a few years younger

Yes, a curious thing is that I did not find any height data for Somalia.

May be doubtful about that, I have seen some data but nothing confirmed saying that the height of Somalis were 5'11-6.

Eh, imo average height for competitive males is 5'11.
What do I mean by that?
You need to filter out oldfags, immigrants, poor people, and races other than white/black. Once you've done that the average is 5'11. These are the only guys that are competitive so they're the only ones you should compare yourself to.

Agreed. You have to place yourself with the competition that women get, most are in that range.

I live in a mostly white populated area of the United Sates high income status most people are young white men that I hang around they are not 5’11 I agree that the minimum competitive height in the dating market is 5’11 but def not the average for white men.

Yeah africa tends to not have any data for most shit. But they do have Ethiopians which are manlets even though Somalis are very tall same with nilotes.

That’s stupid this ain’t a racial height list it’s a continental list. And nutrition is more important than race for height. But yes the global white male height is 5’10

 

[Deprived]

I think france, UK, and Spain have closer averages to the US than northern europe tbh. Fot germany I heard only the northern areas have heights that are similar to scandanavians.

Atleast when I've been in Amsterdam I felt 2" shorter than everyone at 5'11 vs average in Paris (ethnics may have been bringing down avg but even white ppl there weren't that tall)

The average height for Spain is 5'9, France 5'10 and Germany 5'11 according to NCD-Risc data.

I suppose that height in Germany may vary a little because it has borders with the Netherlands and Poland which have higher heights than Germany.

Austria, France and Switzerland have similar averages of 5'10.

What is the point of these dumb categorisations. Not all people are the same height so height looks different, secondly how often do you even give a second look to a person because of their height unless they are way above or below average?
