| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 3:53:57 AM | Shabba any chance you could clarify what is a short guy and what is a tall guy. Afterall if the second marriage is for money - I'd be wanting to be sure the oul git would shuffle off early enough for me to spend the funds and if I could further refine my search for a loaded tall guy over X ft it all helps | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 3:54:18 AM | I've never been bothered by height. My first b/f was 6ft and my last 5ft 4. I'm 5ft 7 so just over average. Couldn't give a flying fook really....although I do like broad shoulders.

I'd take a guess at anyone under 5'9"
I have to say that because i'm 5'10"  | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 4:10:47 AM | While I have on my profile that a tall bloke would be lovely, I also say that that isn't the be all and end all of it. Yes, my knees go weak at the thought of a six footer who could throw me over his shoulder, it's the neanderthal in me (fnar, fnar... Sorry)
The men I have loved have been from 6' 4" down to 5' 6" Their height wasn't an issue. Yes, I adore dancing with a man and resting my head on his chest, but then dancing nose-nose has similar loosening effects on knicker elastic, I've found. The shortest guy among them was the biggest love. I didn't even realise that I was taller than him when I wore heels til the day he kissed me goodbye in his stockinged feet and I realised he was on tip-toe ( my heart melted). When it comes to love, the one who lights your candle will do it whatever his height (weight/shoe size/willy size/hair colour/music preferences/etc). | |

Just remember to put the candle out when he's gone and you're alone feeling randy, or you could be attending the hospital with some unusual burns. | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 4:37:59 AM | Why do analyse everything and not take things on face value that it is just somebodies preference, rarely set in stone and like most things is negotiable for the right person. I am 6ft 3 so height isn't an issue for me and to be honest don't understand why it is for most.
I did date a woman for a while who was the same height as I and she said she had less of a problem with it than men did as they felt inferior or less masculine next to her and suggested that other woman wanted shorter men not because they cared but the men do, this was her view and seems to negate what others have felt. | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 7:45:45 AM | I think on the internet you might find that you are not receiving replies because of your height but if you met a tall lady in real life I think it all comes down to the air of confidence that you project and how your talk and flirt with the lady in question. I don't think any woman finds lack of confidence an attractive trait in a man regardless of physical height.
Personally I wouldn't feel insecure dating a taller woman but I like small petite ladies too so its not really an issue for me. | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 8:37:03 AM | I love wearing heels, im 6ft in them, im also as the name states rather large ;) i'd look (and feel) ridiculous next to someone of 5'5, like i'd brought my pet toy out for the evening. Pass.
Its just preferences like some men wouldnt want to date me because im fat, thats their perogative like its mine not to date short ass's.
hehe I must stop Travan ;)
Anyone that shallow is more important LOOKING like a perfect couple much less knowing what one really is
oh please im so sick of this crapola, we all are entitled to choices and preferences and are attracted to who we are attracted too, do you see me whining because some men dont date fat women calling them shallow? do you f c u k., because i realise it isnt shallow its CHOICE. Ive noticed its usually men under 6ft who come out with this rubbish though, over defensive much? | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 8:47:31 AM | Why do some women, well quite a high percentage, have a problem with a man/ their man being shorter than her. I consider myself averag-ish height at 5'8'' and have had girlfriends taller than me but have found they found it a problem as do some ladies on here who stipulate must be 6' plus cos of their height and heels. Have other men found this and what is the ladies view or explanation please.
sod them m8 .... they dont know what they are missing for the sake of a few inches height.

This site is littered with them - still wondering why mr/miss perfect hasnt found them yet.

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 8:50:34 AM | I would prefer my bloke to be at least 2 inches taller. It's a preference just as some people have prferences for someone a particular size, colour, short hair, no-tatoos etc. If I met someone who blew my socks off it would be less of an issue.
My preference is loosely based on gender roles. Although I don't feel the need to be protected, I don't feel right talking down to my partner. I've done it for a year before, and a couple of dates and it puts me in a dominant role. Quite often fellas are happy to go along with whatever the girl asks, if I'm taller than him I feel too domineering. | |

Albeit warped and incorrect ones.
IMO you are dating the wrong men period, it has nothing to do with height.
The notion a taller man is better at protecting is also complete rubbish the complete opposite throughout history.
for below

Freudian slip at the very least.
I rest my case.
Im a recruitment consultant. The tricks you talk about re looking down on people are as sophisticated as the dicks that think they should shake a hand with their hand above for the same reasons.....
They are pop psychology methods. Dont look for a relationship based on unsophisticated pop psychology. We are all entitled to more than that !
We can all manipualate our reality. If you put up a list of requirements and stare at it long enough you will start to believe it is your preference regardless of its basis in fact. | |

Its her opinion and choice though, and its neither warped or incorrect its called choice. Like i said before men under 6ft with a chip on their shoulders are usually the over defensive ones, unfortunately they ruin it for the other guys who are anything between 5ft and a tad under 6ft who aren't suffering from angry short man syndrome and have no trouble pulling women of any height seeing as they dont whine like a bi tc h on heat. As for history, yes short men did start a lot of wars which backs up everything I just said :) | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 8:59:38 AM | funky, I said I didn't feel the need for protecting. I can kick ass myself if I need to.
And maybe it's something that not many people know about, but I know that I got plenty of information on courses that when you are talking to someone be careful of body position. If you addopt a position where you are looking down on them it puts you in a dominant position, but can lead to confronation and make either party uncomfortable.
So.....buddy. Your turn. explain what you meant.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sorry funky, but your post is still a riddle to me.
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV Yeah, baby! You're such a sweet talker Alf. ;0)

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 9:09:30 AM | I've always been attracted to tall men, 1st hubby was 6' 1" (I'm 5' 6"), second hubby was 6ft, following my second divorce I dated a couple of chaps who are 6ft and 6' 2", but neither of them made it past the 'mate date' stage. The lovely, lovely man who I'm seeing atm is just an inch or so taller than me; I don't actually know his height. It does feel strange at times, I've never dated a chap who's under 6ft before, but at least I don't get a crick in my neck looking into his eyes! When you meet someone and find 'the' connection their physique is irrelevant.  | |

In your opinion they are pop psychology methods. I don't believe you are in my head when I'm looking down talking to other people. As said before it's how I feel and my preference.
And please give me more credit for my preferences in dating. It's not contrived out of thin air for me to look at and start believing. I have had plenty of experience in dating and relationships and am capable of making decisions based on that experience. | |

| Height Posted: 6/11/2009 9:35:48 AM | | Ah this is where I score being only 5'1", virtually everyone is taller than me anyway. But I do get a lot of jokes about beer mugs though... | |
