I'm short, and used to hate it. Now, I'm more than happy with what god gave me. It's not like we're going to grow once we reach a certain age.
I'm the same as you (5'4"). It's all in how you perceive yourself--I have never felt short no matter how tall the people around me are. As the caterpillar said to Alice, "It is a very good height indeed." | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/11/2005 4:12:55 PM | Okay okay.
I posted somewhere back on page 2, I think it was, that I wasn't attracted to men shorter than myself.
And I am here to say how wrong I was.
After a lot of hate mail because of that little statement, I decided to broaden my horizons a little bit (no pun intended). And, now I realise that I was wrong to limit my options so much by ruling out shorter men. Granted the man I went out with wasn't muuuuuch shorter than I am. Only an inch or two. But it taught me a valuable lesson.
So, this is my official apology to shorter men everywhere. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 12/24/2005 9:03:12 PM | You know, I don't fault women for knowing what they want and pursuing it. However, I measure people by their spirit. I thank you open minded women, on behalf of shorter men. I think you won't be dissapointed. Many of us just make up with extra care and effort. Merry Xmas.. K | |

I look for a mate that is genetically desirable, why settle for someone inferior?
Exactly why you should be seeking a short man. He is superior in many ways.
1) Lower resource usage 2) Smaller moment of inertia (which means stronger for the same muscle mass and better acceleration, which is why all these short guys say they can drop bigger guys. They really can). 3) Lower growth rate leads to better coordination. 4) Faster reflexes.
Bruce Lee was 5'7". End of story. Any of you ladies would turn him down or put him down as a man? Remember, that historically, people are getting taller all the time, so if you go back not that long ago, that is a good height. Anyway, ladies, as the joke goes, isn't it how tall a man is reclining that matters?... :-) Sorry if I have offended anyone.

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/4/2006 1:34:08 PM | ***I guess because I am short myself I relate men being tall as being the "REAL" man.***
Of all things I have read in these forums, this has to be the most stupid piece of garbage I have read.... If you like tall men, like most women, then that is ok. We all have our taste preferences and insecurities, but to even imply that the tall men are the REAL men, you have to have a flea brain to say such nonsense.... Anyway, july16ladybug, you have it all wrong when it comes to men I see....

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/4/2006 4:37:44 PM | Just to interject another bit of food for thought........
I am 5" 8" and will admit I don't feel confident of myself when dating women taller than me.
One of my closest friends of over 30 years is 6" 4".
Recently during a conversation he said "Well we're both the same height....."
I stopped him and pointed out I was 8" shorter than he, and he, with a puzzled look on his face said "Gee, I guess I just always percieved you as being the same height as me."
Perception can be a funny thing.
I am shorter than he is, but I am more self-assured than most folks I know.
I am guessing that maybe one's personality can cause one to seem "Bigger than life"?
Comments?
Just go easy on me - It's just food for thought. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/4/2006 5:35:28 PM | to start, i'm 5'5" and it always cracks me up when i hear people think that being short makes you less of a man. i don't say this because i have short man syndrome ( another myth that drives me crazy) i say it because i've known to many "big" guys that were completely useless pieces of crap as far as their personality / character are concerned. i can understand a woman dating tall men exclusivley if she is tall herself, but some of these ladies that are 4'0 or 5'0" and will only date someone who is a min 5'10" is ridiculous. i for the record don't care how tall you are, or how big your breasts are (someone mentioned this on a earlier post). i've had girlfriends that were taller and shorter than me and i never had any complaints. i've contacted a few ladies on this site who never replied to me i imagine that the main reason is they think i'm to short...its their loss as far as i'm concerned. i wonder how many women would turn down tom cruise (5'6"). to all you ladies who refuse to change your minds on this issue: remember that what makes a true man is how he takes care of his family, how he loves them, how he provides for them, and how he protects them. my dad is only 5'5", and he IS a giant among men. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/8/2006 8:03:48 AM | ^^^^^ Aaaahahahaahahahaha! Ladies, for those of you who were whining about "Short Man Syndrome", I hereby present.... (drum roll)
Tall Man Syndrome!
Couldn't ask for a better example. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/8/2006 8:25:50 AM | First off, why do all the shorter men seem to want to brag about their muscles so much? Doesn't that perpetuate the stereotype of them always looking for trouble because they have a chip on their shoulder and feel they have something to prove? I mean, at 5'2" I can still kick high enough to nail a 6' man in the mouth, but... And for Iron, who implied that I classify all shorter men in any category, I specifically stated not all, just the ones I have met. If I found a man, who was sweet, honest, reliable, etc, I wouldn't care how tall he was. | |

Maybe because so many women insist that they want a man to be rugged and strong either to protect them and make them feel safe, or to make them feel delicate and feminine. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/8/2006 9:51:43 AM | | its the whole complementary thing...the smaller the woman is..the bigger she wants her guy to be...for me tall guys make me feel safe and protected... | |
|
| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/8/2006 10:24:24 AM | | I've always found that they try harder. Same goes for balding, bigger, thinner, not movie star material. I find when they're tall, handsome, fit, full head of hair they seem to think that's all it takes. Give me short, fat, bald, move the earth to please you, kind of guy over the typical standards of attractive anyday. But that's just me. | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/10/2006 7:14:28 PM | | Yeah, as hard as it is to admit this : I find short men unappealing to me. The reason being is that I am 5'6 without shoes and socks on...when I put on my sneakers, I am reaching 5'7. When I put on my heels, I am already at 5'10 - 11. But it's not just statistics and measurements...I have always been attracted to tall men and have dated many tall men. I think the shortest I dated was 5'11. I can't explain it...I guess it's similar to how some men are in love with brunettes, blondes or red heads! | |

| Ladies: your take on short guys? Posted: 1/10/2006 7:19:44 PM | i don't falt a woman if she meets and is attracted to someone who happens to be tall...great, i'm happy for her. i can understand a woman who is 5'10 wanting someone tall, but like i said earlier when i see women who are 5'0 who ONLY want men that are a min of 5'10... i don't get it. i also don't get people who make negative remarks about shorter guys that workout and take care of themselves, like we're not supposed to have any pride in our appearance. to those ladies that say, "i'm 5'5 and like to wear heels" so what wear your heels i love a woman with great legs in heels. still doesn't make short guys any less of a man. | |
