Short is someone below the average height.
Our average height has changed over the years (we were much shorter back then)
Apparently the average height of a british man back in the 17th century was around 5' 6", so anything shorter than that would be considered short back then. If you were 6' you would probably be considered tall back then as well.
The average height for an early 17th-century English man was approximately 5’ 6".
For 17th-century English women, it was about 5’ ½".
While average heights in England remained virtually unchanged in the 17th and 18th centuries, American colonists grew taller.
Averages for modern Americans are just over 5’ 9" for men, and about 5’ 3 ¾" for women.
The main reasons for this difference are improved nutrition, notably increased consumption of meat and milk, and antibiotics.

Anyone below 5'9".
I also only have 4 friends below 5'6.5" due to an unnatural mistrust of dudes below that height.

I cant be the shortest getbigger

Modern World
A study published in Britain in 1988, using data compiled from 1981, determined that the average height in the modern British population was 173.8 cm. [67.78 inches or 5’ 7 ¾"] for males and 160.9 cm. [62.75 inches or 5’ 2 ¾"] for females.
For modern white Americans, the average stature for males is 69.1", or just over 5’ 9", and for women, 63.7", or about 5’ 3 ¾".
So for Modern white Americans, anything below 5'9" would be considered short, but back in 17th century-Britain 5'9" would be considered tall.
-
Those british statistics have been updated since 1988. 5'9" average for British males, and i think it's 5'4" for women.
I'm 5'11", i consider anything less than 5'8" for a man to be short. So pretty much 90% of pro bbs. Women's heights don't concern me.

5'7" and under is considered short 5'8" - 6'1" is considered medium and 6'2" and over is considered tall ( for men )

Aren't you a doctor? This does not sound like an educated man's statement. Yes, I'm one of the 5" nothing dudes, but....

You all suck :(

5'9 is the average. Anyone below average is short.
The seriously short guys are creepy and I'm certain it's a warning from the universe, LOL! Short women are fine, to a point, but once someone hits a certain point below eye level I have an almost impossible time trusting them. Doctors are still people, FFS. Don't ever get me going on fat fucks because I've only come to see them as job security.
-

I'm 5'5...Smurf height, I have a natural distrust of taller people, as they resemble Gargamel.

I am 5 8 and this is short, though I am still able to reach most things in the supermarket :D
It also depends on your proportions.

Exactly - though during ones teens being a "shorty" may play tricks on the mind... unless a person had a solid ego to begin with...

Depends on the sport. Derek Fisher and Jordan Farmar looks short on tv but hover over me in person.

I'm happy being short, never had a problem with anything and never wished I was taller.
-

No way, not that one. I can do the 600lb one for 3 sets of 5 tho. That big is going to take some time........like the rest of my life, haha!

Below 6"00 is short
Women who are above 5"10 acceptable. 8)
-
For the duration of my post-adolescent life, my soul interfaces onto the world using a 5'8 manly physique with good posture and non-midget stature. I do not feel short and I don't care what short 'is'
Jade, my 7.5 is surely capable of firing all the right spots, even with a vagina as big as yours that can house a fist.
-
Just don't be shorter than your gf or wife and you will be fine.
-

When I was on the inside, the mexican gang members were shorter than the whites and the blacks. But nobody dared to call them short. When they passed by you, we didn't even dare look them in the eye. A lot of these guys were MS13 gangbangers, and they basically ran the joint because of their sheer numbers. One time I was in the courtyard, and one of the white skinheads got into a fight with this short Mexican dude. He was a lot bigger than the mexican dude, but he was soon surrounded by 7-8 other MS13 members. They beat the shit out of him, and when he was unconscious, 3 of the mexican dudes pissed on him, and another sodomized him. None of the skinheads jumped in to help, because they knew if they did a riot would break out and even more of them would die because they were outnumbered 3 to 1. So they just let that dude get beat to death. That skinhead was left for dead and there wasn't anything anybody could do about it. Some of the shit I've seen still gives me nightmares. You don't mess with that shit. I don't know how I'm ever gonna get used to the outside world now that I'm free.

you dont need to be tall to be strong
jet li approves :-X

I would say anything under 5'9 is short..

180 cm will never be considered short though, no matter where you are in the world.
-
Short? Me: 5,7. 5,9 is the medium frontier.Over 6,1, tall I'd say.

If I sport a faux hawk

Not sure if that counts. Does it add "impressive" height or do people merely think it's a silly haircut not adding to your stature?

He is well liked in his neighborhood.

Bodybuilding isn't a sport but may be one of the few places short guys have an advantage. Not talking jockey short, just below average in height.

The shorter you are the more3 mass you'll appear to have. I think Priest has made that apparent.

Short, but his arms are like basketballs! Actually I am 5-7 and he's 5-4 or 5-5 so he's not THAT shorter than me. He's wider though ....and whiter. oooops :D :D :D :D

shorter guys have it easier to look bulkier... imagine looking like a tank at 200lbs! sure then you can use small doses and not so much food...
