| Height Filter Posted: 5/18/2012 11:01:55 AM | | Agree OP, I wouldn't date a girl seriously over 5"8, and that's pushing it..... would be more useful for the girls. Other sites I filter out girls 5"8 and over. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/18/2012 3:52:58 PM | Why? Actually who cares. Block who you like. More for me. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/18/2012 4:14:40 PM | | If that was a reply to me, just my preference, if a girl is too tall it's just not right. I can just think she's pretty and nice yeah but just too tall. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/18/2012 4:57:21 PM | OMG! Has this thread really got 12 pages! I stand by what I said before - if your a short arse get over it and stop whining ( winking icon thingy ) x | |

| Height Filter Posted: 5/20/2012 5:56:18 AM | 6ft is not tall it's average
I'm 6ft and notice there are quite a lot of guys that are taller than me. Of course I'd love to be 6'4 but it's not one of those things that I'm going to loose sleep over. I know quite a few people in the region of 5'10 and they are doing well with the ladies. | |

| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 3:30:57 AM | Hi,
I didn't read all the reply but I love how people talk about how superficial women are when they set height filters etc.
If you ask a man what he is looking in a woman he will probably tell you that he wants a woman that is gorgeous (take care of her aspect), intelligence, independent, career focus and with a sense of humour. I know I probably sounds presumptuous but I do have all those things, I am young and I am just under 6' ft tall. Men are intimidated by this type of woman.
In my life I met 3 types of men (related to the height):
1) men who are intimidated (especially if they are shorter)
2) men who love tall women (as almost as a fetish)
3) men who don't care about it (they are usually a little bit****)
Sociology speaking there are few rules to follow about couples, men should be taller, have bigger feet and being able to lift their partner. I wouldn't give a damn about it if 90% of the men were less pansy and don't need to have a confirmation of their sexuality every step they make.
If you think women have too high standards raise your level, people should focus more on become better person then waste their time complaining.
Regards. | |

| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 3:39:30 AM | Some of that made me laugh and some of it was fairly interesting...
... why the bejeezus do I need to be able to lift a partner though? | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 4:35:29 AM | I must not make a posting about the 3 types of women i have met in my life!
its interesting that a sociologist would promote discrimination, and even more so subscribe to gross generalisations.
Maybe we should all make sociology degree holders undateable as its the only one you cant fail! | |

have bigger feet and being able to lift their partner
A guy should be able to lift his partner? WTF? Get a forklift! | |
|

I value the health of my back far too much for that rubbish.... i mean we get a hard time for being shallow about womens sizes then are expected to lift them up!
Seriously? im a big fella and ive dated a few that i wouldnt be lifing up for all the sex in the world.
WTF are they teaching in Sociology these days? | |

Go and have a look see how many blokes profiles you can find that mention height, i could pull out dozens of womens with height demands in ten minutes.
It's not "pansy" to not be attracted to lanky women.... Just as it's not butch to not be attracted to short blokes. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 9:12:05 AM | Yeah you bunch of pansies! Man up and put me over your shoulder - Im wearing my 5 inch stilletoes I cant walk! ( winking icon thingy ) x | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 9:28:21 AM | | msg 294,it's all to do with the height to base ratio sparkly.As long as the girl is not wider than she is tall than even for a short guy it is not usually a problem.So Firemans lift?:0) lol | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 10:10:43 AM | Forklift? AHAHAH, brilliant.
The 'lift the partner' bit is about overall strength, aka the man must be stronger then his partner. Plus there is the thing that a man should be able to lift the bride over the front door. I didn't write this things, lol
Sociology isn't about discrimination, it is just an analyse of the society. I suppose from an ideal point of view is wrong.
"It's not "pansy" to not be attracted to lanky women.... Just as it's not butch to not be attracted to short blokes"
Not all the tall women are 'lanky' and the your comment talks about attraction, while I was talking why I set heigh filters. Most women like tall men cause they make them feel safe, of course it is easier when you are 10 inches taller then your partner but if you are able to make her feel comfortable around she won't notice that you are shorter or not that tall.
After all attraction is a basic instant, this is why fireman and soldiers are so popular is sexual dreams while software developers and accounts aren't the sexiest persons in the world, lol, but that wasn't my point. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 10:25:14 AM | Most men here have preferences about boobs, weight, heels, hair colour and children...please allow us to have preferences for tall men if we so choose.
It doesnt offend me if a man doesn't favour me for whatever reason, why should men moan about heightism?. I'm tall-ish I prefer tall men. Not a crime. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 10:37:43 AM | Hopefully most of my posts on this topic will indicate that i am just as heightist as some of the women on here, i don't want to date taller women...just a preference. We all have our little "ist's"..... i just prefer short ar$es as i suspect a lot of men do.
That doesn't mark me out as some kind of pansy who doubts his own masculinity or is intimidated around tall women...that's ridiculous, That would be like me saying women who only date tall men have too fragile a femininity to date someone short and step out of the big man/little woman ideal, it's up to them who they're attracted to. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 11:50:42 AM | We ALL of us like what we like, our own personal preferences and millions of posts ain't gonna change how we feel, age, height, weight, personality, colour, all of them PERSONAL to each and every individual so it's no good getting your knickers in a twist if you feel rejected, it will happen to us all on here, so lighten up people!!
We are attracted to who we are attracted to.........no science degree or study or rant needs to tell us that.............as our American friends would say................it is what it is.............end of. | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 2:20:12 PM | Ladyvibes I agree !
Never in a million years will I be physically attracted to an overweight woman....never have....never will.
Height however would be pretty much an irrelevance to me.
Nice eyes is number one.
We all have different tastes...fortunately. | |

| Height Filter Posted: 5/25/2012 3:06:15 PM | Had to avalaff at avalava!
In my life I met 3 types of men (related to the height):
What does that mean!?!?!?
1) What's so intimidating about you? 2) Why is it almost a fetish? 3) Usually a little bit WHAT?
I have to echo what others have said; how come this thread is going on so long? I'm sure one or two people are repeating themselves, while others are confessing to not read the thread but straight away slam other contributors, in doing so sparking another, or the same debate.

fine, if 90% of the men are like that then you may as well leave here as you're obviously not compatible with most normal people
I can understand your bitterness though, at 5'11, well that's just too tall to be considered normal for a female, being stared at and all that | |
|
| Height Filter Posted: 5/26/2012 5:07:28 AM | LOL.
With 'here' do you mean planet earth or just online dating?
It is scary how many times you used the word 'normal', where I suppose the world 'normal' refers to 'average'.
Actually I am not bitter, at all. That was an observation with a bit of humour. And I wasn't talking about myself, but it is really interesting how some people felt 'touched'.
Thank you for your concern, but at 5'11 you are just normal height in the modelling world, you aren't stared and all that, all the 'average good looking' women are notice when they walk into something and the height does not change it. Of course, at 6'4 is a bit different. msg 301:
What does that mean!?!?!? <- that men, in general terms, reacts in 3 ways about tall women
1) What's so intimidating about you? <- again, wasn't talking about it, sociology speaking being with a girl taller then you can make you feel emasculated. Intelligent, good looking and independent women have this effect, where 'needy' and 'weak' women make you feel more important. In general terms, personally I believe balance is the key of happiness. 2) Why is it almost a fetish? <- I am not sure about this one, fetish is something outside my knowledge but it is a bit like men that really like feet or things like that.. no idea why. 3) Usually a little bit WHAT? <- co*cky, presumption, etc.
I wasn't honestly talking about me, it was a general reply to all the men that complained about women putting height filters, the reasons why I decided to join a dating website are other and all wrong I think, lol | |
