    First ,forgive me for my poor english .i'm a chinese man.in my country,man's average stature is about 176 cm.women's average stature is about 164 cm,if u are 180cm ,u are tall man,and be liked by most of girls.and the young people in city is taller and taller.
    chinese people 'stature is average,man's about 165~185 cm. a little people is taller than 190 cm,if u are lucky ,u just find one man taller than 190cm in 1000 man.i am in wuhan¡ªone big city in china. i almost havent see one man is taller than 200 cm in street. maby all they are basketball ground,hehe.
    i dont know american's average stature and wish you tell me.i think american is average taller than chinese.and american's stature is not average, the man taller than 200 cm is found easily.:p
    So i think american find out the good skill man as basketball players from tall man in usa .but in china firstly we must find the tall man,and then we teach them basketball . :rolleyes:
    i am 175cm,just touch basketry.
    :(

    My understanding is the average height for a white American male is 177cm, which is roughly 5'10.

    1 inch = 2.54 cm

    9.84 inches = 25.0 cm

    1 foot = 30.48 cm

    According to this page:

    http://www.halls.md/chart/height-weight.htm

    You are correct. There are some other interesting numbers on that page too.

    EDIT: Interestingly, 5'10 is average for a white male. I assume since America is predominantly white, the average is weighted towards 5'10. Just speculation...

    so, since I am 185.42 CM tall, am I too tall to be liked my most chinese women??
    I did pretty well with the chinese girls in college, but this is different.
    In China there has to be like 500,000,000 of them, and well i gotta imagine at least 100,000 are hot nymphos

    how much is airfare?

    What is scary...I'm considered tall except when around basketball players.

    6'2"

    but I am taller than most the people I know..

    whats the average height for women?
    I have dated one that was 5'10" and my wife is 5'8"
    That seems tall for women..most of the other ones I know are much shorter than that.

    I would assume the average height for white American women is probably in the 5'5 range or so.

    My first wife was barely 5'1. Her new husband is probably only 5'6. I like going over to the house to pick up my kids because I feel like a giant next to all of them (and I'm only 5'10).
