I've been 5'9/10 for all but the first 13 years of my life.

I think one of the things not mentioned here is that people in many cultures where nutrition is not as plentiful as it generally is for people who most frequent this site, might be tempted to say they are taller than they are.
I also know as a lad, taller girls generally were embarrassed to be near or over 6 feet tall. I always claimed otherwise, and anyone who likes women's basketball as I do, can see just how right I am.

I don't - my height is pretty average though.

One thing I've noticed is that a lot of guys who are 5'10 and up tend to round themselves up to 6 feet.

That is so true. I am 5' 10" and have overheard my friends tell women they are 6 feet when I know we are the same height. I figure they think that to a 5'3'' chick anything over 5'8" seems tall. It's really funny. One of the funniest things ever is listening to a dude's rap, who you know well, when he's trying to get with a chick. Bullshitting about height is just the tip of the iceberg.

Like when a guy's dick is 7 inches, they tend to round themselves up to 9 inches... it's like as long as they know it's technically bigger than average, they figure nobody will be able to tell the difference anyway.

The height thing is annoying though because girls are pretty exacting about their own height and are aware of precisely how tall they will appear in various inches of heels and platform shoes, so we kinda know what 6 feet looks like. We're usually polite enough not to call the guy out on it... well, most of the time, anyway.

Takes me about 2 seconds to figure out a guy's height - i know where the top of my head should be in relation to certain heights, so all i have to do is check how high i come up on him, of course, factoring in heel height. trust us, we're uncanny about this stuff, so you're better off not lying.

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

I'm glad that one guy can finally relate to what I've been expressing here all along. I know plenty of guys who bullshit about their heights in guys-only groups, you can be goddamn assured that they extend this bullshit when trying to get a girl. And considering what they established in the article I posted (guys are in average 1.5 inches shorter than what appears on their driver's licenses), I'm quite surprised that absolutely no man here lies about his height; especially since so many people also obviously lie about their dick-size, cup-size, age, salary, profession, etc. Are people bullshitting about not bullshitting too?

I'd be curious to test you both to see how accurate you are at guesstimating guys' heights. As Dancing_Doll said, many guys in the 5'10" range tend to round up to 6'0"; and in my own experience, many guys just below average (around 5'7") also round up to the average height of 5'9". It can be hard to tell exactly what 5'9" or 6'0" (or any other height) looks like when so many men lie about their height; pretty much like it is for the size of dicks in fact.

I kinda know what 5'2" and 5'4" look like myself in a girl; 5'2" is just below my mouth and 5'4" is somewhere between my eyes and the tip of my nose. But considering that girls can wear so many types of shoes/heels (and my own height can also vary significantly according to the shoes I'm wearing), and that their overall built/figure can also influence my perceptions, I've been proven not to be 100% right all the time.

So... I still believe that a few guys actually get away with their bullshit.

It's so stupid to lie about that. In fact, it's better to say you're smaller than you are. That's why I say I'm only 10 inches. I like to create shock and awe when I unleash the baker's dozen I have hidden away. Always better to surprise rather than disappoint.

Everyone does it. Women do it too. It's so funny. Especially after a few drinks. And even more so when people are believing it.

It may depend on how tall the girl is to start with.

If I wear 4 or 5 inch heels, it puts me at around 5'9 to 5'10 - which is the height where guys start to exaggerate. So if I'm in heels and standing eye-to-eye with a guy that's claiming he's 6 feet tall - I know he's lying.

If it was a 5'1" girl in heels, she may be more likely to believe his claims because regardless of heels, she's always going to be shorter than the guy in question. It might be harder to guesstimate.

See, that's a common misconception that many girls share: heels usually only add 1/2 to 2/3 of their official 'announced' height (and I had this argument with many other girls in the past too, by the way):

www.experienceproject.com[/url]]Many women wear high heels to boost their height. That describes me as well. However, I recently found out from various web sources that high heels can only give the wearer half to two thirds of the heel height, because the added height comes from the middle areas of the shoes, NOT from the highest level in the back.



So 4 inch heels are more likely to only add 2-3 inches to your actual height (unless you're wearing legit platforms). If you're wearing 4 inch stilettos and are standing eye-to-eye with a guy, chances are he's closer to 5'7"-5'8" than to 5'9"-5'10" (I remember reading that you're 5'5" in another of your recent posts). Hence why a few 5'7"-5'8" guys could also claim to be 5'9"-5'10" (or men in general can exaggerate their height a little without women noticing); most women wearing heels aren't as tall as they think they are.

So these men are even shorter then... bastards! silly

Actually most heels these days have a hidden platform so they're probably a little closer to the technical heel height.

Oh that's what I do at the gym. The ol' commando/sweatpants combo while on the bench press. I give free lessons on the ropes for the crowd of gym bunnies that form after I'm done. Except in my lesson there is only one thick rope, and you always need a shower afterwards.

I can assure you that i can tell the difference between a guy 6 foot or more than one 6 foot or less with fairly great accuracy. Maybe not to the exact inch, but yep, if someone claims to be 6'1 and they're not, i'll probably be aware of it. that all said, it doesn't really make any difference to me. being a little on the short side, i actually prefer guys a little shorter, to be honest, so if you're gonna lie, tell me you're shorter, not taller. ;)

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
