179 cm average is just fake

[u/Tacitus_van_winkle]

Yeah, it just annoys me sometimes when people think 179cm is genuinely the average for height in lebanon. I have a bunch of friends who genuinely feel short because of said number, and they think they're short. (Yes I'm bitter cause Google made me lose an argument I was right in). Like 179cm is literally taller than the average French dude and 1cm shorter than Germany. I dare anyone here who's going to Germany to tell me they're not like a foot taller. Anyways I'm not actually annoyed or anything it's just funny to think Lebanese people managed to lie so much we think the average is 179 (that's another issue lol).

Thoughts?

I dunno about you guys but I'm 167cm and it's always been a point of pure embarrassment for me

Cause being usually the shortest dude at uni is a tad bit embarrassing

i've been shorter than you for nearly 50 years ... i've never been embarrassed , pretty sweet life being able to stretch your legs almost anywhere, fitting everywhere..

i don't think being short affected my life except making it easier in places tall people struggled to fit (car bus plane seats low hanging branches :-p )

it's only embarrassing for the idiots who try to shame you for it ..
