*Random question!*
What do you consider short/tall for men and women?
(Not based on statistics,just personal opinion) ^-^

    for men - short is below 5'6" and tall is over 6'3"
    women - short is below 4'11" and tall is over 5'10"

    Tall clubs have a height requirement of 5' 10" for women and 6' 2" for men. Although it's more rare for a woman to be 5' 10" than a man to be 6' 2" (to be fair. If those are the upper cutoffs then the lower cutoffs would be 4' 11" for women and 5' 4" for men.

    ETA: My opinion would be about what the statistics show.
    Short: Under the 4'11"-5'0" range for women; 5' 3"-5' 4" for men.
    Tall: I think 5' 9"-5'10"+ for women and 6' 2"+ for men.

    Although a lot of heights are relative. Women say they're "short" even if they're average height and men are "tall" if they're 6'+.

    I'm 5ft 9 and consider myself to be pretty tall compared to most women I see...

    I guess under 5ft 5 is short for women...under 5ft 10 is short for men, I don't know haha

    I'm 5'3 on a good day...here's my opinion:

    Women
    Short=shorter than me
    Tall=taller than me (but seriously over 5'6)

    Men
    Short=under 5'9
    Tall=6'3+ (My husband is 6'3, so I'm used to that height)
