Ftm Height Ranges

[Guest Zabrak]

MTFs and any others are free to answer too. I love you all. *gives a big manly hug to all*

So I've noticed something, that never really made any real impact on my 'brain' till lately. Today my friend and her dad came over, they know about me and have no issues. Apparently they saw it coming. lol Well, I was taller then her dad. That was cool, I'm taller then most people in my family cept a few of the guys - who are 6'0. I'm taller then my step dad, too.

As I've posted a few times, I'm 5'9, would that be in a 'guys?' normal height range(I'm 100% Caucasian), but on the shorter/middle side. I know many guys are short too, but there are a lot of tall guys.

For the others, what are the other FTMs height range on here? How does it effect you, have you noticed you're taller then some/few/lots of other guys? Tell me all about you.

[Guest Ivan Le Renard]

I think I might be 5'5 or 5'6.

Most guys I know are taller than me, and a fair amount of my gal friends are too. Dx

[Guest NicolaiAE]

I think I'm 5'3"-5'5" some where in there...it kinda depresses me because everyone else besides my mom and grandmother are taller than me by almost 5 inches ._.

[Guest MrAwesome]

I'm 5'6" and I'm hoping I get a few more inches on T!! You're in a decent range. I'm about as tall as my mom and dad. We're not a tall family. But when I'm surrounded by adult men I feel like I'm a guinea pig surrounded by cats! O_O Partly cause of their masculine features though... I'm so jealous. Most younger guys are taller nowadays...

[Guest Neuro]

5'7, I found that I grew about 2 inches ow0

I'm shorter than most guys my age, (bio guys that is) but they don't seem to care. All that matters is that I'm taller than most girls my age, so~~ PLUS SHORTNESS=STEALTH. INCREDIBLE STEALTH AND SNEAKINESS.

Plus in Asia... my Japanese teacher said I'd be incredibly tall XD (he is 'average' height for his country, and he's about 5 inches shorter than me!!)

[Guest NicolaiAE]

Lol, all the young guys at my school, around the age of 17, are like 6'9" or that's what it feels like. My tallest friend is 6'11" ...I hurt her neck when she talks to me. She should just sit down from now on

[Guest Cody_T]

I'm a little over 5'7.5'' so I round up...

I'm taller or as tall as a few people I know. However, I went to orientation for my university and realized that I'm as tall as or taller than the majority of the people who were there. I think it helps that while my high school is predominantly white, my university is mostly asian/hispanic

[Guest Martin]

I'm 5'. Yup, five foot even. Definitely on the short side. It's very rare that I come across anyone who's shorter than I am, and most the people who are shorter have a medical condition to explain it.

[Guest Anhelanti]

5'4, and shorter than everyone in my family, including my sister and mother. It gets very discouraging when most guys AND girls are taller than me, but I try and think of all the successful short guys. Martin Scorsese, Seth Green, Danny DeVito, and so forth.

[Guest Elizabeth K]

Ruined your poll - the 6'-0"+ is me - a MTF ... and isn't it strange how we tall would like to be shorter, and verse the viser?

If it helps - my family :

1st wife - 5-7"

daughter 1 - 5-7"

2nd wife - 5-2"

daughter 2 - 5-7"

son - 6'-1

3rd wife - 5-6"

her son - 6'-0"

Dad - 5'-11"

Mom - 5'-8"

Sister - 5'-7"

B-in-L - 6'-1"

Nephew - 5-10"

Nephew - 5'-8"

Sister - 5-6"

B-in-L - 6'-5"

Nephew - 6'-5

Nephew - 6'-2"

Nephew - 6-4"

no nieces

Dad's father - 5'-7"

Dad's mother - 5'-0"

Mom's father - 6'-3"

Mom's mother - 5'-1"

These are all Texas and Louisiana people.

My aunt Lizzy is always welcome in my threads!

[Guest Zabrak]

Hmm so I'm just a little bit taller then your shortest nephew.

[Guest Sydney_W]

I'm about 5'5". Mother is 5'3", father is 6'4", and younger brother about 5'8". My dad towers over most people around here, so growing up I always thought I was going to end up tall.

Three of the other guys who've worked with me for the past year were around my height, and I've had a good amount of male customers who were my height or shorter. I guess I'm average in NJ, but it sucks to see women who are taller than me on a regular basis. I'd love to grow a few more inches on T, but I doubt it, since I stopped growing a long time ago. But I can always hope.

[Guest Elizabeth K]

Yes - but except for my grandmothers and one grandfather - we are a very tall family.

I think I read the average male in the USA was 5'-9"? I was amazed. In the deep south we have some VERY tall people - I guess its the grits for breakfast.

@Sydney_W: I would love to grow some inches on T too(I haven't checked my chart in awhile, maybe I've grown?)! My doctor says I've not fully grown either..so yay!

I suppose that would apply to Canada too. I have a middle sized family on my mothers side, no ones crazy tall. My bio father however, is a full german, blond, blue eyed and REALLY tall.

[Guest Zabrak]

Wow look at all the answers. Great, keep them coming. So it seems we have a lot of FTMs at 5'6.

[Guest StrandedOutThere]

You are tall!!!

I work out to make up for being shorter. I'm one of those guys where they go "He's short but he's stocky". Yeah.

[Guest Leigh]

5' 9'' isn't on the short side... sounds pretty good to me...

i'm only 5'2'' one of the things i'm least happy about as far as my appearance...

oh well, life goes on.

peace&love

[Guest Konnor]

I'm about 5'5-5'6, but I come from a short family. My dad is only 5'8, my mom's 5'3, my older sister is 5'4, and my twin sister is 4'11. So I don't feel too bad around family. I have noticed I'm shorter than most bio-guys, but I also have quite a few bio-guy friends who are my height. I guess it just depends!!

--Konnor

[Guest Eagledancer]

I am 5'9" as well...of my three adult sons, I have 1 about my height (probably closer to 5'11") and 2 that are 6'2"+. Their biological father was not much taller than me, but my family has very tall males (up to 6'6") for caucasions in this area of Texas! My partner (all woman from the get go) is a whopping 4'11" in shoes...just like I like em...lol! I surely know that dynamite does indeed come in very small, compact packages! According to the charts I guess I am an average man, and she is holding the anchor for the women! Thanks for the poll...interesting!

[Guest Zabrak]

Haha! What is it with you tall Texans?!

[Guest Zabrak]

You are tall!!!

I bet you're 2x stronger then me though. lol

I'm gaining muscle mass now. SO freaking happy about that.

[EVAN_DESU]

I really do hope I get taller, much taller.

Because I know a lot of people...Who start off tall...Then never grow that much anymore. DX

LOL, I find it hard to believe I was like the tallest kid in my kindergarten class...

I think I'm about 5'1".. tis not fair DX

*crosses fingers and hopes he becomes tall*
