5'10

I stopped growing in height I think at about 17. Most of the people I went to school with were 6'0 or taller than that.

I'm only 5'4, and I'm 26 years old. People are occasionally mistaking me for someone who should be in school. Boy, are they shocked when I tell them my age or that I graduated. XD My mom is only 5'2, and she's in her fifties I think. It's funny because on occasion as well, people will mistake her for being my little sister because of the way she looks and dresses. She dresses like a teenager because she's small, and even has small feet as well.

Loki: You're average height for a woman!

I'm a guy, 53 years old, 5 foot 4.75 inches (about 165 cm).

Been this height since I was a junior in high school.

Sometimes, being short has its advantages.

My father and my brother are in the range of 5 foot 9.5 inches-5 foot 10 inches. They are both NT.

Contrary to popular belief, a woman who is 5 foot 2 is not very much shorter than the average woman.

I seriously doubt AS is at all related to stature.
