What percentage of American women are my height?!
Question: I saw this question:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
So, I started wondering, just how many women out there are my height?
I'm 6 foot 1 inch barefoot, I tried looking it up online but can't seem to find any statistics for women my height and taller.
My height isn't even included in most of the height to weight comparison charts I've found!
Is being over 6 foot that rare in women?
Does anyone have any sites with statistics for women who are over 6 foot tall?

Damn! You're tall, even by male standards. While I wouldn't exactly call that rare, it's definitely not the norm. The average height for men in the U.S. is 5 feet 9.2 inches, and for women it's 5 feet 3.8 inches.
Got those figures from about.com, but they only show averages. Hold on, I'll see if I can find a chart for you . . .
Here you go:
"What percent of Americans are over 6 feet tall? "
"At least 3.9 percent as they are those eligible for the Tall Club which make up a minuscule percentage of the U.S. population. Just 0.7 percent of U.S. women are 5-foot-10 or taller, and just 3.9 percent of men are 6-foot-2 or taller. The average heights for American men and women are 5-foot-9 and 5-foot-3.7 respectively, according to statistics from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services."

And, here's a chart from the Health and Human Services website:

me, not so much, but I know at least a couple. :D
sorry no stats.
Well i'm close at 5' 11''
well idk either but if it helps I'm only 5'2"
You could use this http://www.blubberbuster.com/height_weig...
Even though it's for people who are 20 and under, you still can use it if you're older since most women stop growing at 18 anyways.....
EDIT: Till their late 20's! Wow, that is weird. But this is a special case, the majority of women stop growing at 18-21 so I say you could still use the calculator in the URL I gave you. Anyway, there's also a chart that you could use to figure out your percentile, but I know that charts are hard to read. I know I don't know how to read it lol. Here it is: http://www.halls.md/chart/height-weight....
