How tall could Somalis be internationally?

[Riftvalley]

It's not hygiene. Somalis don't have poor hygiene, it's diet. Baasto baaris instead of hilib iyo caano geel

Have you ever seen the toilets in many tuulos? Literally, pot holes in

Sorry didn’t finish post up there. Unhygienic sewage systems in toilets and dirty water cause a considerable amount of infections and stomach viruses in Somalia. A few problems can be eliminated if there were more cleaner water, soap dispenser in all toilets and maybe more use of toilet paper. Many infants are malnourished from a nutritional perspective and they are also more prone to have stunted growth.

Yh what I am saying is if Somalis had the perfect condition of Exceptional Nutrition and Clinate back home, how would they compare to other groups worldwide?

The average Somali male is 5'7 with subpar nutrition so I think if we got better nutrition we could get it up to at least 5'11.

knew a girl who had to be 6'0, very slim, polite and ladylike. i think she was a fob?

My mom is about 5'8 "and is from the SR. The only other woman who is taller than her is from the Ogaden; she is about 5'11".

I haven't seen guy under 5'6, and if they aren't 5'8 or above it's mostly due to poor nutrition/junk and lack of sleep.

Lol what is this stereotype that ogadens are the tallest. Both my grandmas aren't ogaden but they are 5'10 and 6ft respectively, qabiil ain't got shit to do with height

Most tall guys I have seen are here in the West, but the girls I have seen in Africa are taller than the ones here in the West.

It's not qabil but region, those who grew up with an ample supply of camel milk are more likely to be taller, it's a matter of diet.

What type of Ethiopian misinformation is this your spewing ? average Somali male 5'7 ? That's some bull shit. The average Somali male is 6 -6'3 and the tallest ones I've seen a couple times are 6'5 -6'9
