Posted: 1/10/2006 8:18:10 PM | | I don't like to date men shorter than me because I feel uncomfortable. Its my problem not theres for being short, theres nothing wrong with being short or tall, skinny or fat whatever (maybe fat for health reasons). If I am taller than a man then I feel like I'm their parent.....as weird as that sounds. Everyone has different preferences. We all have our idea of the perfect person but in reality no one is perfect as far as I'm concerned. Imagine if we just fell in love with someone based on their personality only, so are we shallow for caring so much about what someone looks like. For me it has to be a balance of everything and that seems to be the general consensus. | |

Posted: 1/10/2006 8:39:33 PM | Agreed, height or size or colour has nothing to do with providers, protector, lover or any of the above. However, being 5'5" you are on the one end and being almost 6 feet i am at the other end. I dont think its descrimination, just preference. i come from a long line of amazons lol, so to speak so, not dating someone shorter is not something I would or have did on a conscious level, more as a reflex.
Why do short guys always ask me to dance...because they are more secure? Maybe, cause they hit the right area in a close dance? Could be. Or do they just find me really great to talk to? But we have not spoken. For most part, not all but speaking for myself, its just a reflex of looking for someone bigger than me, not because the size comes with different attributes.
Ultimately, meeting someone for their personality and other similarities is much more on the level of my dating experiences. That is why this forum is good, it can give some less fortunate amazons and shorter people a chance to get to know each other. | |

Posted: 1/15/2006 5:54:12 PM | Here is the answer.
its all about being an alpha male/female.
Read about fair exchange theory.
Women don't generally prefer shorter men for the same reason men generally don't prefer over weight women.
Fortunately its not all men that reject overweight women and they can lose weight.
However a shorter man cannot grow taller and it really is pretty much all women whom prefer taller men.
Anyway its not like i believe in love anyway. Its just a fair exchange of commodities. No more. How sad. I think either you stay married to your highschool sweetheart or else one becomes used to the idea (after playing the field) that there is always better, taller, etc ... around the corner. | |

Posted: 1/17/2006 9:35:08 AM | I had always been attracted to shorter guys I'm only 5.4 so I can get away with it,
My ex-- father of my daughter was short 5.6 / 5.7 it was nice to look him straight in the eyes and hold each other.... we both wore 30 / 30 levi's I still have an old pair of his jeans my fav's.
MIND U --- He was a cacky mother F'er, like the world owed him something, never piss off a short guy.
I think we call that "short man syndrome"
Sorry had to say it.
Then I dated my first over 6 foot man wow hello... fantastic sex life. I vowed I would never date another short man again. lol ....
There are pluses and minuses to both tall and short I think if there is a physical and mental connection its all good.
cheers. | |

Posted: 1/31/2006 4:55:26 PM | Once again I find myself back at this forum changing my mind ruthlessly. The men I have been with lately have all been nice and tall and I really have to admit, just walking close to them made me want to rip thier clothes off. I love feeling tiny next to them and feeling like they can pick me up and throw me over their shoulders.......never mind the sex...........just sitting on them and feeling so feminine and womanly.............sorry I need to be real honest here, I have never been more turned on then when Im walking with a tall man, looking up at them knowing we will soon be ****ing our brains out............... | |

Remember, even dwarves started small. "Grow up!!!" she says. That's mean.
Where is it written in the Bible, or other sacred scripture, that the man in a couple must always be much taller? It seems to me that the widespread preoccupation with any particular physical feature is counterproductive to the objective of successful partner selection.
So many people choose their mate, based on appearance characteristics. And the matches so selected often are not enduring relationships. OK. I admit it. I am a short guy, and it bothers me that most women will not give me a second look, for that reason.
I have physical preferences, too. My first choice is little, pixie-like women, blond, about 5' 2" and 95-110 pounds. But that preference does not dictate who I will date. In my experience, women of divers sizes and shapes can be fantastic lovers and partners. The things that matter are personality, character, and intelligence.
I'm not gonna get any taller. I know that. So, I cheat. On my feet, are boots with 4" heels. In my boots, I am 5' 10". And that is tall enough. Girls, go ahead. Wear your heels. That's what I do.
Taller in heels,
Jake | |

Posted: 2/1/2006 8:27:01 PM | | @get_over_it: Do your bullying and mockery earn you any points in the adult world? I know that sort of thing used to work in junior high, I just wondered if maybe I should start making fun of men with limited intelligence or low incomes. Do you think that would score more than trying to be a stand-up guy? I bet I can find a few here and there to be the butt of my gags. Let me know, okay? | |

Posted: 2/1/2006 10:04:48 PM | Personally, it's not that I don't "like" shorter guys, it's just that I tend to be more self conscious around them. I don't think it's due to any scary deep seated issues, it's just that I'm 5'9" (and have been since I was 12). My dad and my brother are both 6'3", so that's just the dynamic I grew up with. And it's not just about guys, either...I have a great friend and former roommate who's 5'0" on a good day, and I always found myself slouching when we went out together, just because I never really got used to or enjoyed feeling like an amazon.
Ok so maybe a small not-so-scary issue. | |
