| Men don't like TALL women
Posted: 1/28/2006 10:30:49 PM | Done thread, but I couldn't resist. I'm 5'7" and I've dated a few over 6' gals in my time. We were both comfortable with it. Matter of fact we had fun with it, used to laugh at people who thought it was "strange".
"Taller girls especially ones who are attractive are quite intimidating"
Not true with confident, aggressive guys like me.   | |

Posted: 1/29/2006 6:06:19 PM | I don't think tall women are unattractive at all. I would just feel odd dating a woman who was taller than me. Same height or shorter isn't a big deal. But who knows? Maybe I'll meet some "amazon" who'll steal my heart someday.
It seems like the women are the ones who have "height" issues. They don't generally seem to want the shorter guys. I'm 5'8. | |

Posted: 2/3/2006 9:39:56 PM | Well,
I like tall women. Probably because I am 6'2". I would love to date a women taller than me. But, seriously there are not too many women about 6'2" around here that I can see. | |

Posted: 2/5/2006 8:19:53 AM | As for me its hard to imagine that Tall women aren't taken. If I smile and she looks down ... I deduce disinterest (not wanting to carry on the eye contact).
Going to bars (as some have stated) is loaded with distraction, noise, alcohol and competition ... the tall women there may be appealing but I find the atmosphere and frustrating, draining and and boring. I doubt you can ever really be yourself or open to meeting someone in an orgy of mating rituals and comprimised equilibrium (unless you consider that fun)
I think standing outside TALLGIRL is a better deal until they come up with a dating sight for women 5'10 and over.
These days I do more readily that a tall woman is less likely to be involved if she is younger than me but not older. If there is a ring for 'engaged' and 'wed' than there should be a ring for 'available' | |

Posted: 2/5/2006 9:54:06 AM | | Thats not true, I think sex appeal comes in all packages...but them I am only 5'7". I do get hit on by shorter guys sometimes. Usually prefer guys at least a few inches taller than me... | |

Posted: 2/5/2006 9:59:47 AM | ^^^your are beautiful di5...its a no brainer to hit on you regardless of the guys height...even Tattoo would be hitting on you if he could once he gets out of prison (or did he die?)
do people even get my obscure references to TV shows in the 70's | |

Posted: 2/5/2006 12:58:24 PM | okay: jus' because it's been hours since i've said it: "men like tall women!!" we love 'em!
however, i find it's the women who prefer the men to be taller than they; much taller, in fact! so we less-than-average-height guys are often overlooked... looked down upon, if you will, even by those women shorter than we are! | |

not true...
a lot of us older 'bags' look for more than just height. Again I dated 6'4 guys and 5'3 guys - and the 5'3 guy was the best of the bunch - because he had a lot more qualities and things going for him than the 6'4 guys. | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 5:09:18 AM | I personally have predilections for guys that are between 5"11 and 6"2, with 6" being the perfect height :). In general i hate guys that are 6"4 and above, and 6"3 is sorta getting there too (i'm 5"3), i often find them to be too lanky and unhealthy. That being said, the height range above is not a strict one, i'd go out with an average height guy too. i've seen some 5"9 guys that were very well built with broad shoulders and it made my heart melt! . I must say that height does play an important role to begin with, but if the guy has no brains, no sense of humour, or is a sleaze bag, i'll no longer care that he's 6"2, i don't want him  , i'm just saying that height is the icing on the cake, the cake part being good personality qualities. 
I've managed to attract a heap of guys, so i hardly think my height is a disadvantage. I'm best friends with a 5"8.5 girl, i'm not intimidated by her and she isn't intimidated by me, and we've managed to win the same amount of guys each, so may be there are 50% for shorter, and 50% for taller, i dunno. it's a pity she slouches a lot, she'd look much better if she stood straight, i keep telling her to do that.
It would be good if i was a couple of inches taller, 5"5-5"6 i think is a perfect height range for a girl, i wouldn't want to be taller though (never wanted to be a supermodel, i just don't see the fascination of it, and all you guys do is comment on the long legs, as if she has no identity, i'd prefer to use my brains for science and maths, i was born with one after all). still, i'm ok with my height, at least more so than i was a few months ago.
In the end each person has someone out there who likes their type, so *yawn*  gnight | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 5:31:31 AM | | I totally dig tall women and I unconsciously look for it in them. I am tall so if she is tall then things are ideal I figure. If she comes to eye level she has the ultimate kissing height :-) | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 5:50:48 AM | Some peope have issues with anything...too tall, too short, too skinny, too bald, too much beer gut, too flabby too dumb...too long a list of problems.
I am 6 feet tall...I know, I KNOW my profile says I'm 5'10" and I did that for exactly the reason the OP mentioned. SOME guys would not write to me simply because they are too short and feel insecure about it. I didn't want to miss out on chatting with them based on height, so I fibbed about my height.
NO!!! I don't feel bad about doing that since I have made it perfectly clear that I am NOT here to find a date. Chat and online friends only...so who the heck cares how tall I am, as long as I can type?
In "real" life some guys love us tall women and of course some guys don't like tall women. That's cool...the feeling might be mutual, ya know? Anyway, it has always worked out just fine for me! | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 6:52:40 AM | ^^^I don't want to be the morality patrol here but no one likes being lied to no matter what the point of being here is.
In fact its grounds for being removed from the site if you were to be reported.
Why can't people be who they really are and trust others to make the right choices. Why do people feel its right to falsely seduce other people with lies on the basis that they would not have communicated with me otherwise.
Of course they would not have, that is there choice and right.....but nooooooooo, you don't respect other people's so you go ahead and deceive. mislead lie and cheat for your benefit.
Sorry...I don't respect your choices....they are selfish and self indulgent.
Go lie in some other pond!

Posted: 2/9/2006 7:09:25 AM | wow...sorry I touched such a nerve with you, and I'm sure you have some company in your feelings. My intention is never to cause anyone distress or grief over anything. That's just not my style! I do feel that some things are completely irrelevant in chat-pals...and height is indeed one of those things. As long as the guy can reach up to hit the keyboard, I don't consider height when chatting with someone.
I guess we all have our own standards...yes indeed some men would not write to me if he was too short...and some guys won't write to me because of a 2 inch fib....But how many MEN have fibbed about 2 INCHES here and THERE?? Hehehee
One thing I know is I can't please everyone, some people are cool with me and some are not. It's OK, I meet lots of nice chat pals and friends on here. But really, sincerely accept my apology for offending you...negativity is not my objective. I'm a very honest person and that's why I just can't keep my secret!! I'm a terrible fibber! You know....after 2 years in this pond and after all the chat pals I currently do have...maybe I should just go correct the height thing. You know...that might be a good idea...I have so many to write to as it is...Hmmmm...maybe I will. | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 8:08:23 AM | | I'm about 5'7" and slightly shorter than average, but I still feel good about my height. I also like dating women no matter if they are shorter or taller. I think it's what's on the inside that counts. | |

Posted: 2/9/2006 11:16:02 AM | daisie, I noticed you corrected your profile and I accept your apology.
yes, you did touch a nerve not so much from a specific personal experience but a genuine interest in promoting the values of keeping it honest and clean on-line.
What is on-line as an environment, a community, a resource for friends and lovers if we cannot trust the honesty of each other to completely represent ourselves as truthful as possible. I agree their are a lot of people, men in particular, lying and cheating their way into our hearts. They are destroying the benefits of being here just like they would destroy a neighborhood with their crimes in real life. The key difference is there are no police here. We rely on each other to uphold a cetain moral code and its failing fast.
I am sorry to have come down hard on you but my point wasn't to guilt you into correctling your profile. It was to remind you and everyone else that you don't have the right to decide who will and won't respond. Its definately not fair to seduce people based on lies no matter the type of interaction. Simply present the facts in the best but truthful fashion and rely on others to make the right choices for themselves.
