Woman
About
An adult female human typically stands around five feet tall and weighs roughly 150 pounds.
Adult women are female members of the species Homo sapiens and are generally slightly shorter and lighter than adult men. Average body dimensions vary widely across different countries and genetic backgrounds, with national height averages ranging from under 5 feet (1.5 m) to over 5 feet 6 inches (1.68 m). Despite these regional differences in stature, women share the same upright, bipedal frame and overall skeletal proportions across the globe.
From Wikipedia
