The average American man is 5'9''.

Women, children, and non-cisgender individuals are obviously going to be shorter on average than cisgender men. (damn, being a cisgender man, that makes me a statistical freak of nature in the worst way possible)

To suggest that people are voting honestly when real-world data suggests otherwise because you're tall is a logical fallacy.

There is no conceivable way that 2/3 of this site's poll voters are at least as tall as 5'9''.

Yes, because that's exactly how normal distribution works.

Average height for men is like 5'10".

sounds like a short guy wants to believe he isn't that short


I'm under no delusions about my height.

A lot of the voters seem to be though :P

Uh yeah, the poll looks pretty close to a bell curve stacked around the average. Also, 10,000 out of 328 million is a tiny percentage and I can easily imagine that the poll response happens to include mostly average to above average height men given that I've been in plenty of groups where I'm the shortest person even though I'm about 6'.

It's not that tall. Plus there's usually a racial/ethnic disparity in height and, given that Gamefaqs is predominantly white (who tend to be taller than Latinos and Asians), it's hardly surprising that Gamefaqs would be at or better than the average.

No, it's 5'4" to 5'9".

lolwut? You post data proving that 5'9" or taller is correct and then claim that it's not correct? You're just flat-out trolling.

And non-cis are only going to be shorter depending on their birth gender.
