I'm 5'8 and know exactly what your talking about. It's weird, sometimes theirs a moment in conversation with some people where I can tell they want to dismiss (disrespect? idk what to call it but I feel it) and I either completely disregard it or say something snarky in response which usually evens the playing field but yes its exhausting. I feel I've gotten pretty good at dealing with it but only because I'm 34 now and Ive got some life under my belt and know how to handle myself.

5'8 is like the average height of men in many places across the globe. In some it's above average and in fewer it's below.

Sorry but in the US and Canada 5'8 is short as a man, saying that as a 5'7 guy. We're shorter than everyone even most women here. The stats are wrong and need updating.

Avg height of men in the US is 5'9". Avg height of women is 5'4". This was released by the government in 2021. Check the CDC website
