I'm 5'8 and I feel short around guys but girls still seem to think I'm tall...hmm...

IMO you should stop worrying about it and just get bigger for your height

I'm 5'8"....i consider myself short for the most part in my school considering how tall everyone else is...i feel like crap. I find really tall people less coordinated and slower anyways. The best running back in my league last year was 5'6" 160lbs.

Notice how they left out black guys in those figures. If they put black guys in the average would probly be like 6'1".
