Please choose your height and post if you felt that was short tall or average.
I tried doing each one separate from 4’9”-6’ but there’s a limit to how many poll options so I had to combine some.

5'6, chassidish, and feel average. There are some super short people around here, but I feel like most are around my height. There are not that many 5'10 and taller women though.

I’m 5’2. I do feel shorter than average, but there are also many women around my height or shorter, so I don’t feel terribly short.

I wasn't part of that poll since I came on only this year.

I'm 5'5 and consider myself very average.

5' 5/8", not an option. I settled for 5'1". I am willing to round down if that will bring any more happiness into your life. I agree wholeheartedly that there are not enough poll options. I myself had to settle.
I accept you sympathy and hugs.

I'm 5' 3". When I'm around certain people I feel short. Otherwise I feel average. I think 5' 5" is a happy medium.

Anonymous as it's the joke in our family and around.

My dad is petite and short, my mom is big and tall. She always says, I only thought about having tall and skinny kids. Never occurred to me I can have short and chubby kids too.

I'm 5'4 and one of 7 sisters. I'm 2nd to tallest.
But I've been in environments where I've been on the short end (like when I worked in a secular environment. I was shorter than most of my coworkers.)

It's all relative.

These numbers fall remarkably well into a Bell curve.

I’m 5’10”. Here and there,I do know some women taller than me. I even know 2 Yemenite women taller than me!
Everyone else is shorter.
I did have a harder time on shidduchim. I had no problem with a shorter guy ( as long as he was build average/big), but the shorter guy didn’t want a taller woman. BH I found my big and tall guy.
