Do you have back pain or problems?

[futurebird@sauropods.win]

Do you have back pain or problems? If you have had to change your life, eg. avoid doing something, or stay home due to your back or if it hurts often that's "having back problems"

If you are taller than 164cm (5' 4.5") you are "tall." (In this formulation more men are tall than women, I'm interested in absolute height here so not breaking it down by gender. Data are bimodal but I don't think it matters much.)

Ya'll are too tall.

[hosford42@techhub.social]

@futurebird I'll be honest. It felt *really* weird answering that I was "tall", but I followed directions. I'm the tallest in my immediate family, but I'm still 2 inches below average (unless the average has increased, which it probably has).

@hosford42

I think I should have done a poll to find the "average fediverse height" first.

As a 5' 0" person ... ? You are tall. LOL.

@futurebird @hosford42 yeah I'd be curious to see the poll results with a better distribution of height information.
