    I think i have a really high natural waist. But i don't really know (I don't really go around look at other guys natural waist, you see)

    I've alway's understood the natural waist to be an inch or two above the navel. That's where most kiltmakers measure for a traditional kilt.
    If I'm wrong correct me.

    Well, comparing one of your physical features with other guys will be like comparing any other physical feature with other guys. You can get all the comparisons you want, but you'll still be what you are. Dress/act/brag accordingly.

    I've heard that if you stand and bend to the side that the "hinge point" will be your natural waist.

    I thought it was measured at the top of your iliac crest (top of the pelvic bone for you non-anatomists).
