| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 3/13/2006 5:16:28 PM | | I got an email from a guy yesterday and he specifically stated that he seeks out tall women, that is his preference and his profile headline said that too. SO....I dont know what is reasons or success rate has been, but some guys do indeed go on a MISSION to FIND US TALL WOMEN.....>WE ARE WORTH THE CLIMB!!! | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 3/14/2006 8:44:01 AM | | Seems like it's all about personal preferences. Only a couple have sought out taller women. For me, I am pretty tall (5'9"-5'10) and I have no preference when it comes to height. I would date a man considerably shorter than me. Does seem like the messages I get are from primarily taller gents, though. I do have other preferences, however. To each his own. | |

The implication, I think, is that taller women are less sought after and so my odds of finding a good lady are better in that category.
My response to this is WTF?!?!?! Then to say that taller women feel less attractive because of their stature?!?!?! I've been taller than most people my entire life, and I don't use that reality to negate my existence.
I find that there's a notion among men that women, in general, aren't interested in dating someone that is shorter than them. I will admit there are some women out there that support this because they want to see their man as being their protector... but to squish all of us into that hand basket is just wrong.
Truth of the matter is... if you're a guy and you see a woman you find attractive, you should approach her regardless of her height and at least make the effort. There's nothing to be gained if you don't try.
The underlying message I've seen in some of these threads is that men won't approach taller women because they fear they'll be rejected. My question is... why do taller women have to suffer because shorter men somehow feel inadequate because of their height (or lack there of)? | |

In the real world I don't approach them first since success rate is zero. BUT I am going to start because with the short girls it is still zero since I am not 5'10"+. Just amazed how universal it is for women 5'/5'4" to say I am too short to ever consider dating. | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 8/18/2006 1:03:18 AM | o.k., i'm 6"ft tall, w/ my boots on 6"1 and a half, for me being able to hold on to a man , and not having to worry whether or not he's gonna suffocate , is not the issue, for me, it's knowing that i can hold on, and have fun !!! especially if were' eye to eye, or i actually have to look up, getting that grip, feeling like your being held, and not just tip toe-ing around, it's knowing that a MAN is holding you, it's almost a secure feeling, when your dancing, or just a huge hug, short or tall, got to love them all !!!  | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 8/22/2006 9:30:59 AM | I'm 5'11. The man I'm dating is 5'9. The chemistry between us is fantastic. Everybody has certain physical attributes that they're attracted to but sometimes it pays to go against the grain. | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 8/22/2006 9:35:45 AM | I'm 5'11 &1/2...barefoot...I usually get a lot of shorter guys that want to date me that are infatuated with tall girls...I deff have a thing for really tall guys though..If i can find a man that can tower over me, well he just might be a giant..but god that would be sexy...  | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 8/22/2006 2:26:59 PM | | I definitely prefer a tall woman, though I've never dated one taller than I (6'4"). I find it more comfortable to talk, dance and generally socialize with a taller woman, over 5'8" or so. Unfortunately, it's the short women who most often approach me. If I stand and talk to someone who's just 5'2", it seems as if she's so far away, in a different time zone! | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 8/23/2006 5:01:14 PM | | Personally, I like dating shorter women. I'm only 6'1" and a woman 6 feet tall would scare me ! LOL Maybe I'm guilty of typecasting, but I generally go for women shorter than 5"6" with a little meat on their bones. And for the guy who commented on "leggy women"...well, i've seen women under 5'6" who are ALL LEGS (which is a good thing !). | |

| Has anyone made a point of dating tall women? Posted: 1/21/2009 3:51:56 AM | I am 6 feet myself.... I find dating hard...period. The short guys are too intimidated and the tall guys seem like they want a dainty lil' 5"5 female. I must admit, society's view of what is attractive or feminine doesn't always work to my advantage. I am never going to be dainty or 120 lbs without looking anorexic.....so that can play on a taller woman's mind. Personally...most of my dates were always shorter....partially because tall men are rare where I am from.... and the shorter guys were the one's that approached me and tried to get to know me. I wonder if perhaps men have an image in their minds as well..... to look or feel like a "man" they have to be bigger than female. I must admit when I do date shorter guys I never date skinny ones....maybe to make myself feel more feminine....who knows! (All I do know is anyone I date must be able to deal with my addiction to heels) | |

In past I had hard time asking someone that seems tall for me on a date, but a couple of years ago I got a nice surprise that changed my perception.
A woman tall for me (and attractive too) had the courage to ask me out for a dinner.
The first reaction of mine was of shock (I was thinking, is she out of her mind?), but other than that, the date went really well and I had a great time with her.
I have no problem today pursuing someone about my height, but I still am shy about asking out someone one inch taller than me...
I am 5'8 and a woman 5'6 with high heels already tops me... | |

I'm right here boys...come and get it!! If tall women are not attractive, then how come the Victoria's Secret catalog or runway show is so popular? Is it all those heffers strutting the runway? yeah they are pretty gross
Won't get an argument about that from me, being taller than all but a very few women I have ever met.
Years ago I dated a girl who could wear my 34W/36L Levi's, and thought that was pretty cool. I have never sought out tall women, but I would not turn one away, either. I have noticed profiles of tall women very often say they are looking for a man at least as tall as they are, including the profile of one hottie from Jersey... | |
