Im '5"8' am I tall for a guy?

Question

Im 15 and Im '5"8' and weigh 115 pounds.Is this considered "tall" or am I short?It says Im right on track when I look it up but most guys are STILL taller than me, but the other guys are over weight if you go by the "average".Im confused.Please answer with your opinion,not with the standard you looked up.

Answer 1

you're average! it also depends on which part of the world you're in!

Answer 2

I am 43 and 5'9" weighing 152lbs. I am not by anyone's opinion tall. I would consider myself to be an average height for an american. I consider average males to be 5'9" - 6'1". This is of course my opinion and entirely subjective. BTW, I grew an inch and a half after high school.
