In tiktok comment sections I often see people say "5'8/9 is average, that's not a bad height". But here in Germany it doesn't feel like that at all, which makes me think that the height equivalents in the US/Canada and EU are different. This is my guess:
Cooked Manlet (SMV nuked forever): US: 5'5 and below / EU: 5'7 and below
Normal Manlet (below average): US: 5'6-5'8 / EU: 5'8-5'10
Average: US: 5'9-5'11 / EU: 5'11-6'1
Tall: US: 6ft-6'2 / EU: 6'2-6'4
Very tall: US: 6'3+ / EU: 6'5+
In the EU it depends on the country, but I'm talking about the main ones in the west and north. For Italy and Spain it's probably similar to the US.
So if you don't live in the EU, consider yourself lucky. The countrys where it's most brutal, taking foid expectations and average height into account:
- Netherlands, UK (insane standards from foids), Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark
