Horta, what is the average height for a Somali Male? Lately, I've been noticing that the ones in my area are all very short. Do Somali males that are over 6 feet exist? I heard that the average height for the males are 5'9-5'10 Sorry, but I'm not checking for anything that is under 6 feet.

Guys- Keep in mind that I'm 5'9.

You must NOT live amongst somalis then. With the exception of us accursed few who are vertically challenged, most seem to be more than 6ft.

5'9-5'10, Somali's are on par with the rest of the world.

You're right. I do not live amongst other Somalis. However, I do go to where there is a large population of them and the ones that I recently saw were all short like woman. They all ranged from 5'7-5'9.

As a Human Rights lobbyist for the Association of the Vertically Challenged, I must inform you that your statistic is incorrect.

There is no way you live in Toronto.

And that's above average for women!

Hipster: I don't know where you is at but somali niggas are mostly above average.

Alpha, wallahi I live in Toronto. Surely, all the Somali males here cannot be over 6 feet bc the ones I saw were shorter than that.

Elite: Toronto

Then you don't know what 6' looks like.
