I thought you were old enough to know that your height is irrelevant

When did “normal” start meaning that diminutive situation?
ONS say average for UK males is 5' 9". You can check with them whether that's mean, mode or median.

However:

A study by dating app Badoo has revealed the height as being the most right-swiped among their users who range between the ages of 18-30. After surveying 20,000 Brits, Badoo concluded that 5ft 8in was the most popular height for men
Is 'right swipe' dismiss?

The thing about the dating app data is it doesn't subtract the 2ish" all the men add to their actual height. :lol:

Which reminds me, must pop into the quack centre and measure my height with their super-duper laser machine thingy so I can calculate my BMI properly.

Can you put your net worth into this dating app? Because that's the biggest factor on the planet these days when women are looking for a partner.
You can be 4ft 3" but if you're rich then you're getting a fit wife.
I've never looked. And with 'users from 18-30' I'm well outside their demographic.

When estimating net worth, how can a monetary value be placed on 'modesty'. It's my key attribute and I don't mind who I tell.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:
