Generally, the average height of a woman is about 5'5" ft. (164 cms). So, on that basis, 5'9'' ft (175 cms) used to be considered as a height for a tall woman. Above 5'8'' is tall for most women. If a woman at 5'8'' was a male, she'd be 6'1''.
Men tend to want a woman no taller than 6 feet, while women want a man no shorter than 5 feet 4 inches. On average, women say a romantic partner 5'3” or shorter is generally too short for comfort, while a partner 6'3” or taller is too tall, and the “ideal” height for a man is 5'11”.
