    No. More like 5'9.5 for men and 5.4 for women which is dead average for White Europeans.

    You're almost uptight about this as Grace O'Malley. No one is saying the Irish are midgets, lol.

    I was talking about 19-year-olds. Your statistics probably fit the average for all age groups with some pets included.

    No one here is. A girl from Munster said that they were short, though.

    Height changes all the time due to diet. I'm sure most people here would be taller than their parents were. American men were much taller than the Dutch at the start of the last century.

    No. Irish men are not tall. Not tall like Swedes, etc.

    And where did you get to be such an expert on the Irish when you have never set foot there?

    This is for 19 year old 2019.



    From 2016.

    Irish men now stand at an average height of 5ft 10in (180cm), placing us 20th in terms of height out of 200 countries.

    Meanwhile, Irish women today stand at an average height of 5ft 5 inches (165cm), placing us 24th on the list of the tallest countries.

    How can a population only have 160 cm on average? That’s like super low.

    Even siblings can have different phenotypes; why do people expect grouped populations to have equal phenotypes?
