What’s the point of this poll? What would it do for you?

OP doesn't know how to use Google for a common statistic from biology and would rather sample a bunch of Blind users to get the answer.

Thanks for the insights, TiMd30. Blocked!

This poll is certainly not biased. People who are shorter are going too respect the scientific nature of this poll and will respond in exactly equal proportions to tall people

Salesforce gilugilu OP Nov 13, 2021

It is very scientific, just like all other polls

Most of these people are Indians, whose parents didn't get the best nutrition growing up in the 50s and 60s and couldn't grow to the maximum height their genes would allow them. Their offspring had access to better nutrition and are maximizing their height to their genetic potential.

It is my hypothesis too (of all developing economies where under nutrition was common in the previous generation - aka the US version of baby boomers).

I’m 6 inches taller than my Dad (6’4” to 5’10”)

This supports my hypothesis that nutrition and better hygiene (fewer childhood illnesses) results in taller adults, particularly for males.
