Default Height?

I swear gay guys tend to be shorter than straight guys. Maybe I'm just being weird so POLL TIME
I haven't really noticed much difference with gay girls though.


Poll instructions:
If you're on the thingy that's in 2 categories...put yourself in the higher one

huh, guess I'm really tall, or that stupid conversion thing doesn't work.
In meters I'm 1,77. That conversion thing says it's 6'. I don't know if that's true, I'm not really good at that.

You should also put into account where people are from. I mean I've always been short/average 5'9'' here in the US but in Puerto Rico I'm one of the tallest people there. Also Europeans/Australians are taller in general than most Americans and Canadians.
