So, you think your muse is smol?
Because this might drive me a little nuts, your 'smol bean' female muse that is 5'5" isn't short.
Height estimates are rounded, and are based on healthy populations - measurements given in feet and grouped first by global, then tallest to shortest - there are many countries in between not represented! I've included countries to show the vast difference in heights human beings naturally range within, and what bearing this might have upon your muse.
Serbia, Montenegro, Estonia - 5' 6"
America, UK, Ireland - 5'4"
Hong Kong, Costa Rica, Cyprus - 5'3"
Mozambique, Ecuador, Ethiopia - 5'1"
Laos, Nepal, Gautemala - 4'11"
Netherlands, Montenegro - 6'
Sweeden, Poland, France - 5'10"
Samoa, Iraq, Greenland - 5'8"
Cambodia, Malawai, Bangladesh - 5'5"
Since many of the most popular muses, right or wrong is irrelevant here, are cis male and are from America, Canada, or the UK, that is only 5'9" and 5'10", respectively.
I realize that both canon muse actors and canon muse's alike most often have their heights listed on wikis, but it's a little ridiculous that because every damn one of the popular cis male muses out there is at least six foot tall, it's skewed the entire RPC to thinking that the average height of human beings is monstrously taller, thus also much shorter, than it is in reality.
Please, keep this in mind when creating original characters. Your five-foot-seven female muse isn't actually short by anyone's standards. Your five-foot-five female muse really isn't either, you're just writing her around cis male muses who are very tall at six-foot-five. Believe it or not, she can actually reach the countertops and doesn't need a booster seat at McDonald's, guys.
