5'10" here. Both my parents aren't tall, so it's all good. I noticed that a lot of guys who go clubbin' put on "man heels" - basically dress shoes with a fat heel - so that they can appeal to the ladies

That's so gay, that even homosexuals would object.

That reminds me of the Seinfeld episode, where George wears the Timberlands everwhere, even to the wedding in India. He paints them black, and demands to sleep with Elaine.

Hahahah - Late one night when I was watching infomer---I mean The Man Show---I saw a commercial selling special sneakers that look like regular shoes on the outside but in the inside there are actually inserts that give you a 2" raise! I wonder if anybody out there is sporting something like this...

There must be something in the food these days. I'm 6'2", but my father is 5'7" (5'5" for my mother). I do have a few tall cousins, but they also seem to tower over thier parents. For example, my aunt and uncle are 5'11" and 6'3", respectively. But thier two sons turned out to be 6'5" and 6'9".

The funny thing is that my dad is like 5'3 and mom's 5'5. My brother is 6'4 and he's still growing. THe tallest person in my family is my uncle who's about 5'11. I guess my bro drank a lot of milk when he was young. He's also been playing Basketball for years.

I dont expect this to get a very good response, but I am sure it hasn't been done before unlike the age question, so fill your boots!

And just to make sure it is acceptable for every nationality (surely another poll possible here), I have even given metric and imperial measurements. Aren't I generous.

I realise that I have made a bit of an error in the groupings, since if you are exactly 1.65 for example, you actually fit in two groups. Sorry about this. What a fool I am. Can I suggest you all pick the higher of the two groups if you are on a threshold. If I had done it in metric only this would not have been necessary since I could have picked the next centimetre to start the next group (eg 1.66m), but since I have also included feet and inches this wouldnt have worked. sorry.
Why are you overlapping your heights in your poll options intervals?

For instance,

How many hot dogs do you eat in a month?

a) 1-3
b) 3-5
c) 5-7
d) 7 or more

should instead be:

a) 1-2
b) 3-4
c) 5-6
d) 7 or more
