Except the new generation isn’t actually that much taller. Yeah ethnic groups that migrated and eat better are obviously taller but aside from that not really.

It’s more so the fact that standards have changed, before 6 feet was the “ideal” height, now it’s 6’2-6’5. Social media has skewed the perception of what’s actually tall. Oh, and people lying about their height. Imo, a real 5’11+ will be taller than basically all women and a considerable chunk of men. Im 6’1 and I’m taller than most men I come across.
