Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 19
"...window washer for an executive *office building* was cleaning a window of the *sixtieth floor*...she had to *kneel* just to look at him..."
Finally! Some indication to the size of the giantesses! Now I can obsessively try to calculate their height compared to humans. Let's begin:
Firstly, how high up is Anthony?
According to the CTBUH tall building height calculator (yes that is a real thing. I'm also shocked. Link below) a 60 story office building is 257.4 meters (844.5 feet) tall. Subtracting out the height of maintenance areas on the roof, the height of the 60th floor window is 249.6m (818.9 ft). We can therefore assume that Cecilia's eyes are at a level of approximately 818.9 ft in height while she is kneeling.
Now the question becomes: if that is her eye level while kneeling, what is her total height? This question depends heavily on what one considers kneeling. According to Wikipedia, there are two types of kneeling:
"Vertical kneel: where both the thighs and upper body are vertical – also known as "standing on one's knees"
Sitting kneel: where the thighs are near horizontal and the buttocks sit back on the heels with the upper body typically vertical."
Basically, while kneeling, one's thighs can be at any angle from completely vertical to completely horizontal relative to the shins and the ground. As such, all numbers past this point will be given as a range. Based on measurements o took of myself kneeling, one's eye level is at between 68% and 57% of their full height. Given these numbers, we can find Cecilia's full height using the equation (818.9 / {0.68 to 0.57}) which gives us 1204.4 to 1436.8 ft as Cecilia's height.
Finally, we use this height to find the approximate ratio between human and giantess height. Since Cecilia is not presented as being particularly tall or short compared to other giantesses, we can assume she is around average height for a giantess, and is therefore equivalent to an average height woman of 5' 3", or 5.25 feet. Using the equation ({1204.4 to 1436.8} / 5.25) gives us a ratio of between 229.4 to 1 and 279.7 to 1 of the height of giantesses compared to humans. Given the uncertainty as to how average Cecilia's height is, the most I can say with confidence is that, on average, giantesses are between 200 and 300 times the size of humans, meaning that the average giantess is between 1000 and 1500 feet tall.

Author's Response:
Welp, I didn't see that coming. :/ A tall building height calculator I mean. When I started writing the story, I used the Giantess Converter to determine the height of the giantess in the story but never thought to calculate the buildings they were surronded by.
Your impressive calculation skills has this half-baked writer stumped. My intentions was for the giantesses to be able to interact better with the smaller folk so I decided to have their height be around 120 ft. tall.
This has to be one of my greatest mistakes while writing this story and thank you for pointing it out. I might have to redit this chapter by changing the floors and height of the building. I apologies for this error.
