5'7" and a half. It was measured in 10th grade gym class and I haven't grown an inch since.

178 cm.
I googled what that was in feet and inches since almost everyone else replied that way and apparently I am 5 feet 10 5/64 inches. Imperial measurements are weird.

We should maybe separate this post into adult males and females. 5'2" isn't short for a girl, but very short for a guy. 6" isn't tall for a guy but quite tall for a girl. :)

I'm a woman and 5'4". Pretty average and I don't think about it much.

I always thought being on the spectrum was related to being short because people on spectrum are always thought to look closer to children
Most people at my school are taller than me I stopped getting taller 2 or 3 years ago
I'm not a male so yes 5'2 isn't that much short for me its not an uncommon height for females I guess

I postulated a while ago the same - that people on the spectrum are smaller - on average.

But I don't think it's true, even if it's true for myself, I'm a male with 170cm, which in my country is a little less then average for males.
I'm only a little larger then female average, but I don't care, because averages are not important for individuals.

I believe in the fact that each peson has some aspergian traits and some "neurotypical" traits. The sum of these traits make you "aspergian" or "neurotypical".

That's tall for a guy(but not really tall obviously). I'm exactly 5'11" which is about where "tall" starts for a male.

5'9"-5'10" is average height for a guy. Below that is considered short.

i'm 6'6", pretty much the tallest in my family and friends by several inches. my father is arounr 6' flat, and my largest cousin is around 6'4.

it is hard to buy clothes and shoes in my size, they are typically too wide, if i can even find the correct length in the first place

i don't know i've never felt the need to measure my own height.. that seems kind of a weird and unproductive thing to do
