| Ladies: your take on short guys?
Posted: 11/29/2005 5:28:56 PM | Everyone looks for someone who's genetically desirable. Big girls, poor girls, girls who have an attitude that doesn't match their looks, etc. are girls who I would consider to be genetically inferior. Why would any guy put up with that?
If a girl dosen't like a short guy, boo hoo. Move on. Everyone has their predetermined preference as to what they find attractive. Attraction is a feeling, not a choice  | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 5:31:04 PM | | I really don't have any problem dating taller women... I think height matters more to women than men (I'm 5'7" which by most measures is fairly short). Conversely, I think that men judge women against their width. Guys want skinny girls, girls want tall guys. As far as I can tell, there is no difference. Men and women are equally shallow, just about different things. | |

there is a threshold of hotness at which guys will tolerate cruel ****es? Cool. I will thus try to calibrate my hostility to match my attractiveness level. Hopefully a happy equilibrium will soon be attained. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 5:43:07 PM | Maybe a happy equilibrium between hostility and attractiveness is what we all strive to achieve This sounds like a psychology course or something | |

Not me. Especialy if their profiles and comments make them sound like neo-nazis.
OT: I'm 5'6, most women never reply to my profile. I don't know if it's my height, or if my profile and pictures just suck. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 6:01:26 PM | First point....fat chicks can lose weight, same as fat guys can.....in both cases 90% can lose weight. So this can be fixed if desired, no comparison there.
Now height is genetics, just like a woman with a nice butt is a genetic trait.
Inferior = no one is inferior genetically, every person has equal value no matter how you were made in God's green earth. | |

No such luck, my profile is hidden, that's all.
I am an atheist, so your comment is moot.
If you are happy to date someone with an extra chromosome or two, feel free, my standards are only for mine self. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 6:49:05 PM | Far be it from me as a woman 'Summer Teeth' to know how I define my femininity.
Thanks so much for telling me that I can only feel feminine when I'm with tall men. That surprises me since my first husband was 6'2" and I rather disliked him towering me like that.
I thought it made me feel more childlike than feminine but now you have set me straight and I realize now that feeling childlike is actually feeling feminine.
@Show Me....uh...I never said I had anything against short men. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 6:59:21 PM | | my ex husband was 5' 5..... i was 5' 5 1/2.... i had him by 1/2 inch..... generally i like a man who is about 5'6-5'9...... yes i like them short.... they just fit better..... for sex... hugging... cuddling....... someone around the same size as you is a good match...... so when your toes to toes your nose isnt in his belly butten...... and when you argue. you can look him in the eyes without the help of a kitchen chair....... and for a last thought.... the size of a man is not indication of the size of his heart..... or brain | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 7:06:41 PM | Athiest or not, believe me you came from somewhere...you know that lil brain that thinks and makes ideas/comments had obviously a creator.
Extra chromosome or two -- > what are you saying people born that way are less in value to yourself, got news for you, I don't see it that way.
Interesting why you have your profile hidden.. You go ahead and pick who you want, no one will bother you with that, all I said is a person who is 5'3 should expect someone equal and not whine and cry about it....it's not a big deal, if we stop as a society thinking more like a sheet of paper, which is plain and draw what we believe the world should be, then I think our world would be a much happier place. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 8:08:07 PM | "smurfs",eh!When you ladies can find a tall man that leg presses 8 times his bodyweight(hint,hint) than you come talk to me about feeling safe in a tall man's arms!!ahhhhhh,The feeling of triumph this little"smurf" (5'7 AND A HALF)feels as as the TALL man at the gym looks on in bewilderment.  | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 9:08:50 PM | Well, strength can be measured in a way that takes weight into consideration, or in a way that does not take weight into consideration.
I train in grappling, and I'll tell you that within particular weight classes the short men often kill the taller guys in their weight class because they have more muscle mass whereas the taller guys have more bones, flesh, etc. However, when you look at strength in a more absolute sense, as in who can bench or leg press the highest weight regardless of his own weight, I really don't know if height has any relevance or not. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 9:53:23 PM | Who woulda thunk that my humble little thread on the merits of dating short men would culminate in further examination of both the seemingly universal POF forum theme of "Who is more shallow here, the men or the women?" as well as the ageless argument on whether or not said shallow minds were created by a creator or came about via evolution.
Attraction is a feeling, not a choice I would prefer to think I have a choice in the matter. It seems to me like indicating that it is not a choice is merely a way to avoid taking responsibility for your choices in this matter. Just my opinion.
LOL at the happy equilibrium between looks and being a bitch.

Posted: 11/29/2005 9:56:16 PM | | I've dated short guys. Of course, at 6' tall, it's often hard to find someone I like who is actually taller than me! lol So, height isn't a big issue for me. | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 9:56:18 PM | well then, there is this. Some people are logical, and some people are emotional. A logical person would probably base a relationship on stats and figures, while an emotional person would base it more on chemestry and attraction.
You sound like a logical person.
I happen to be emotional.
Hey... that kinda sorta sounded smart, huh!  | |

It doesn't matter how tall they are if you are horizontal
Geez...barn girl, if you are an emotional person, and then there's the logical person, does that make me a sexual person?
LMAO | |

Posted: 11/29/2005 10:40:25 PM | Perhaps we've now moved to philosophy class
I’d argue that pure attraction is a feeling, something that can be somewhat irrational and unconscious at times. How one decides how to act on those feelings, now that’s choice…
Mmmm, maybe I’ll ponder this concept over a beer…

Posted: 11/30/2005 1:03:18 AM | I'm 5ft7 without my shoes on and I have guys here that are less than 5ft tall messaging me. Come on
I'm sorry but there is nothing wrong with us if we are not attracted to guys shorter than us | |

If this is an issue, would you not post this on your profile so that this doesn't happen? | |

My messaging is restricted to non smokers and smokers are changing their smoking status to message me | |

Posted: 11/30/2005 1:40:14 AM | | You could always just say: don't message me unless I tell you it's okay to do so, and don't say you will change anything just so you can message me, because I obviously don't like getting messages, or I wouldn't be bit**ing on it here.... | |

Everyone has their predetermined preference as to what they find attractive.
LMFAO. That was the exact point of my arguments on this thread. Attraction isn't predetermined!! Oh, wow . . . And I enjoyed when you said that something sounded like a "psychology course or something." Yup. We've found an eloquent thinker.
And July once said that she doesn't want to think about why she's attracted to someone. Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.
You know what? I guess it doesn't bother me that people have blind preferences for one thing or another. I guess it just bothers me that no one wants to look inside themselves to find any answers for why they feel a certain way. | |
