Him: Are you tall or short?
Me: I'm pretty short.
Him: How tall are you?
Me: 5'4"
Him: That's actually pretty tall for a woman. I'm really tall, I'm 5'11"
Um.... Not sure if he's from Oz and only hangs out with munchkins, or if the Midwest is breeding our own race of giants, because last time I checked, I'm one of the shortest people I know. Average height for a woman round here is 5'8" or so. I would consider 5'11" to be pretty average for a guy, but I know a lot of dudes over 6'2", so maybe I just hang out with freaks of nature.
Plus, seriously, every pair of jeans I own says "petite" or "short" on the tag. Pretty sure I'm NOT tall.
