| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 11/30/2005 5:29:21 PM | I will just say that kissing a guy who *ISN'T* 8 inches taller than me is wonderful. I had no idea it would be so great to be able to just reach right over and kiss a guy that way. I highly recommend it. But you will have to find a different guy to try it with! 
And as far as anyone who "can't be turned on" by someone under a certain height...all it takes is the right personality. If he's got that certain something--the "something" that makes him all man--he's going to turn you on, and the height isn't going to matter.

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 11/30/2005 11:25:59 PM | Well I see why people should have to analyze why they have preferences Summer Teeth. If it's a standard they don't want to give on then why force the issue.
As I posted earlier, I was always somewhat uncomfortable being with a man who was more than a foot taller than I. I would prefer one that is closer to my height but I wouldn't dismiss an opportunity based on height.
Being only 5'1" I would be hardpressed to find a man shorter than me but as Ladybug said.....I don't think men should LIE about their height. They shouldn't LIE about anything!
It only serves to leave one wondering if their words have any substance to them.
Dishonesty does not make for a good starting point. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 11/30/2005 11:40:52 PM | I just have to say as a person who would not normally look at a short guy as a potential suitor,that you make a very intelligent point and that its rather shallow to go by height,I too have seen the very short hot guy here and there and frankly they dont seem interested in a girl taller than themselves,although im sure some do,I may be mistaken but I think I watched a show on discovery that said something about womens natural hormones or pheromones look for a larger more dominant male dont quote me but I think thats what I heard:)much love for the shortys!:) | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 11/30/2005 11:47:53 PM | cinnamon-You know it girl! The father of my two sons is 5'7" and I am 5'8"-almost 5'9", *L* ask him, he knows exactly how tall I am, he's the one that has made the big deal about it, it never bothered me a bit. I loved the guy for his personality and the fact that he is hot hot hot. the first time I seen him he was on the dance floor making all the girls go hmmmmmmmm.......I decided I wanted him and got him. What he was advertising on the dance floor...well, let's just say, he didn't let me down. That was 12 years ago. We lasted seven of those twelve. Reasons unrelated to his height broke us up. We had a blast. Never once did the height thing come into play as a problem. As for dropping guys bigger then him, seen it many times and found it a turn on to watch that little power house go. There's nothing about men shorter then me that turns me off. In fact, i have found more often then not, it's them that decides the height thing is an issue. Too bad.... | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 12:04:44 AM | hey quik, your right about the documentary about women looking for larger more dominent males...and so on. I seen it. It's human nature to look for the "protector" type...goes back to the hunter gatherer "stuff". Since, in this day and age, we don't need to be protected from dinos or big bad bears, we have become much more flexible on our tastes I think. I find it's more to the tune of finding someone you click with...regardless of height, build etc... We can't help what nature built into us and there's nothing wrong with having a preference. As for myself, I keep saying I like taller men but there's something about the body of a shorter man that just makes me stop and go hmmmmm......
It's when people are judged because of what others believe they lack, judged as in overlooked, you know, the ole 'he's such a hottie and sooooo nice, too bad he's so short'...wow, how many people have missed out on something fantastic because of that. I zeroed in on how he made me feel. It was never gee I wish he was taller....
*my favorite part of sex with a shorter guy.....my girls get all the attention they want and his "mojo" doesn't get interrupted....if ya know what I mean....  | |

Hey, it's all in good "Smack talkin'" fun ;-) Wanna Spare? I like some competition....too many wimpy housewives in my area. lol! As a matter of fact, it's bit of a turn on that a woman is into martial arts.
Common interests you know? :-) | |

Isn't "preference" just that, only a preference and not a requirement?
For example, a guy has a "preference" for women with D cup boobs, but he doesn't necessarly have to HAVE a woman with D cub boobs, right?  | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 3:02:23 AM | I have known women to lie about their age....some particarly that are around the age of 40, early 40's....I met one woman that said sh ewas like 39, and she was actually 42 (she revealed this to me on the phone)
In a sense, it didn't seem to matter though, because she looked a little younger I guess. However, I was wondering if this should be a red flag or not?
Typically I have known people to do this online so that the "System" on here, would match them up with others ina younger age bracket. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 6:53:25 AM | Well ya Hambone....lying about one's age should be a red flag but in your case the woman was at least upfront about it when she talked to you which makes it a LITTLE different.
She may have had other reasons for lying about her age in her profile as you mentioned but I still think its dishonest.
Mind you I could never figure out why women lie about their age in the first place.
If I were going to lie about my age....I would add a few years that way you're sure people will think, "hey, she looks good for her age".
If you drop a few years then you run the risk of people thinking "gee she looks older than that, she's not aging very well".
What I don't get is lying about something that will be obvious when you meet. People may not notice if you add an inch or two to your height but more than that is hard to hide.....and that includes a guy lying about the length of other things as well.  | |

I liked your take on lying about your age...makes sense when you think about it. *s* | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 10:42:26 AM | Ah, yes the classic short guy thread. I still read it to see if a new argument is brought up, but it looks like we are covering the same points as before. It goes a little something like this:
Short Man: Why don't women like short guys?
Women: We just don't. I don't like them and I can't change that. I'm sure there are a lot of nice and caring men that are short, but it's just my preference.
The Scientist: Well, you see it is evolutionary reasons why women want tall men.
Women: I need a tall man to feel protected. I love to look up to a man when I kiss him.
Man: Well, I'm 5'10 isn't that tall enough?
Woman: Nope, I am still taller than you in my stripper boots with 5 inch heels, so your still too short!

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 11:03:50 AM | Hambone, I would never say definitively that I could kick a guy's ass before meeting him. I wouldn't want to assume too much about you, because for all I know you could be a national level judoka. However, I'm just saying that I'm not some girl that does Tae Kwon Do for a hobby either. I eat, sleep, and breathe jiu-jitsu, I used to teach it even, and I'm not known to lose very much amoung the "non-colored belts", regardless of their size. Come visit Dallas-Fort Worth if you ever feel up to a challenge. 
lost prophet, that's interesting but none of that takes into consideration myself or the other women who enjoy short guys. This thread was started by a woman, not a complaining short guy. Forgive me if I'm bringing up a topic that's been done-to-death already; I'm not a forum regular. I wasn't aware I was perpetuating a pattern. | |

Thanks for brightening up my day | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 12:25:20 PM | Hambone, it's probably not worth driving to Dallas just to get your ass handed to you. Anyone who has trained in boxing, wrestling, and knows how to use their feet are just plain nasty.
I studied boxing, wrestling, and Tae Kwon Do, so I could protect myself no matter where I ended up in a fight. I'm jealous, though, Tough. I would've rather taken Jiu-Jitsu, which basically combines these techniques and makes them its own, but I couldn't justify driving an hour there and back to either Tulsa or OKC to do it. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 12:39:19 PM | I hear ya Summer Teeth. These women just don't know what they are missing. I'm 5'7" and have no problem or hang ups about it.
(Afterall, laying down we are all the "same size"). I've gone out with alot of women taller than myself... no problem... I was even married to someone taller than me.
Guess I don't meet that minimum 5'8" standard... guess I'll just have to get a pair of those "KISS" boots!!!

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/1/2005 12:46:48 PM | | UMMM I think I do know what Im missing........and NO we are not all the same size laying down. I can tell the difference........5'7 is still taller then me by 4 inches, so I wouldnt wear heels LOL | |
