I'm short, I'm like 5'3, it sucks lol I wish I was taller, sadly I will not be growing anymore, but it doesn't bother me that much, I know cis guys that are just as short, I just blame that I'm Italian and were all short haha

I guess I'm short, but I've never minded it.  I'm not sure about average height, but I'd wager its 2-4 inches taller than I am.  My height is kind of a mystery to  me at this point.  Pre-T I was measured for years as a little over 5'4", but since then I've apparently grown a good deal.  I'd figured maybe an inch equalling around 5'5 but my room mate (who is the exact height as me if I'm not a little taller) claims to be 5'7.  I'm not sure if he's way off, or if I've grown more than I think I have.  I'm wagering we're both probably around 5'6, and we are both quite definitely short when it comes to being amongst folks of "average" height.
I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

I am around 5'1" but I think I will appear taller once my boobs are gone. At any rate I wish my legs were a little longer and the same length, so that I could have an easier time buying pants. I don't think it hinders my passing though.

I'm 5'4''- pretty short. But the annoying part is that my mom is 5'7'' and my dad is 5'11''. So it seems like I should have the genetics to be taller. Instead I would up being the shortest person in my whole family. Ugh so unfair.

Also, Mr. Hockey- Wow, man! 5'10''! That's awesome :)

the world is so tall! why are we south asians stuck so short? well i just checked the wikipedia chart and it says for our country, avrg height for males 5'4n1/2, and for females 4'11n1/2. the data is not big news to me as it is pretty much the same i've noticed on roadsides all there years. i'm around 5'2-3 (didnt really get it measured properly since measuring it at age 12 for student health report) and i'm usually taller than many girls, and an inch or so shorter than many men i encounter. there are lots of men with my height, and a considerable number shorter than me. i wish i were around 5'5, but probably i won't be treated as a 'shortie' if i tried to pass.

Look on the bright side, if you are ever in Norway or one of the other countries where people are quite tall, your height will be explained away easily by your ethnic background. In places like the US the diverse ethnic backgrounds seem to lead to such height variation that I doubt too many people FTM or MTF would really have trouble passing because of it, maybe stick out a bit, but I doubt it would make anyone assume birth genders.
