| Men don't like TALL women
Posted: 11/23/2006 4:15:09 PM | I'm 6'5" tall and refuse to have anything to do with pygmy women under 5'7" -- and of course, they need to meet the usual requirements.
first time I've been called a pygmy. actually I like being short !! | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 4:19:15 PM | I'm not at all attracted to tall women. Something to do with proportion and attraction, I guess. It has nothing to do with intimitadtion. Women don't intimidate me in general.
It might be the way taller women look (this is in my opinion, of course, which is very subjective) less feminine to me. In fact I've always felt that models (who are typically at least 5'7) look rather masculine because of their long limbs and towering looks. To be honest, height is a turnoff.
The other thing is, of course, I'm not tall, which makes taller women look and feel even taller than for other guys.
But that's just ME.
Other guys I know find tall women VERY attractive. They rave about their legs and their grace. In general guys love that. I don't. | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 4:21:19 PM | | Funny to read this because if your theory is accurate then tall guys aren't confident enough to approach. How odd then it is that you get approached by guys who, despite their height disadvantage, are still confident enough to approach and risk rejection (which by the way is far more likely when a short guy approaches a tall woman). This proves the theory that size doesn't matter. It's all about quality over quantity and the stature of a man should be his confidence and respect for you; not how tall he is. I always find it funny to see these petite women (5' 2" or less) advertising for men over 5' 11" or "please be at least 6' tall." Yet a woman who is 5' 9" often times won't consider a man her own height or an inch or so under or over. They also have to be at least 6'. That's funny when you consider the average height of most men is around 5' 10." We're so focussed on physical appearance. Give me the confidence, humour, and respectful nature of a woman and I don't care if she is 4' nothing or 6' 5". Good luck finding the right guy. | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 4:23:14 PM | okay this is just a ridiculous statement...unless you define tall as 7' or taller.
Im no giant and I have dated women as short as 5'....it really doesnt make that much differance...if you ask me my preferance I think about 5'-10 is perfect...just cause it makes kissing, hugging and dancing seem "better"..it like we just "fit better"...but it aint the be all and end all..
Men dont like tall women?...pfffffft! | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 4:57:53 PM | Oh yes they do.
I'm 5'10" and have been since I was 12. I wear 3 inch heels and my height has NEVER been an issue with men. I've dated men from 5'8" to 6'7" and have heard repeatedly that tall is wonderful. For the guys it usually means no more sore necks, they can actually look you in the eye and that tall women usually have longer than average legs.
I'm proud of my height and of my strong personality and you should be too. If men are intimidated by that, then they're not the right ones.
But remember too, to be approached, you need firstto be approachable! | |

Posted: 11/23/2006 5:05:42 PM | I do not think it reflects badly on tall women like myself when we want a tall man. I already feel not as feminine as shorter women. so dating a horter man would just add to that feeling. I dance with short guys when I am out and am never nasty when I am approached in bars. In just don't date guys who are a lot shorter. I do not feel that this makes me bad...as I wont just date a tall guy BECAUSE he is tall. There has to be attraction and personality also...
Just like for anyone else x | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 2:01:58 PM | wow, can't believe this thread is still going!!
I am not discriminating against short men when I specify over 6ft. Just dount wanna feel like a freak on dates lol. My bf is 6ft2 like me and I am very happy with that!!
===========================
I like women who fall in this category: dates who are freaks ...in the bed.
So what if I have to strain my neck to kiss the girl, or rest my head on her shoulder when dancing (or my face resting between her boobs). Got to have my statuesque Goddess(es). | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 5:27:17 PM | | Tall or short, it doesn't matter to me. If she likes Classical music, and doesn't smoke, and is able to manage her finances, she's 90% there. The other 10% I'm happy to learn how we can work it out. Height is not an issue. Funny that I should have only known a few people a foot shorter than me, but I'm happy to go out with a 7 foot tall woman too! | |

Posted: 11/24/2006 7:15:01 PM | I would love to date a tall woman.
Height doesn't matter to me as long as the woman isn't 3inches or more taller than I am. | |

Posted: 11/25/2006 10:58:06 AM | I am 5'7". (5'11" in my tallest heels)
It would be fun, I think, to date a woman who is 5'10" to 6', but I try to be flexible. | |

Posted: 11/25/2006 2:08:22 PM | I find that men are attracted to me because I am tall.
I wear high heels or my western boots often which
both make me six feet tall. What happens with me and shorter
guys is that they often say they always wanted to have
sex with an amazon, refer to to loving the view because
they are eye level to my chest or worse comments. I generally
laugh off the more tame comments but some provoke a negative
response back when they are too crude.
I have no problem with short guys as long as they have a personality
that peaks my interest. | |

Posted: 11/26/2006 3:26:50 PM | | Ive recently been fantasizing a lot about tall women... Tall well built women, not overweight but tall healthy women, able to take my 5ft9 200 pound frame and make me do what they want... As for being with a tall women who enjoys heels? you mean there really is a Santa? | |

Posted: 11/26/2006 3:47:42 PM | Geez!
The dominatrix angle now!!!
I am 6' tall barefoot. My two husbands were both shorter than me (5' 10" and 5' 7").
I would much prefer someone about 6' 2" to 6' 4".
When I see men over 6' 2" with pygmy women, well it makes me angry...I feel like they are poaching. A lot of men, though, feel more secure with a shorter woman. Only a very confident man (unless they are into the "freak" thing) can emotionally deal with dating a woman a lot taller then he is.
My personal experience...and I do have some...

Posted: 11/30/2006 11:23:22 AM | | Personally I love dating tall girls. I dated a girl that was 6'1" (i'm 6'2") for awhile and there was something really nice about being able to look her in the eyes without looking down. After we broke up I dated a girl that was 5'2" and I just found myself not really happy with the height difference. Ever since then I've found myself very attracted to girls 5'10" or taller....not that I'll pass up on someone cool that is shorter, because there is always heels or big stompy boots, but I do prefer tall women now. | |

Posted: 11/30/2006 12:12:10 PM | | I agree with susiedee.. I am 5'9" in bare feet so with heels.... almost 6'0. My last few relationships with men.. that is shorter men.. I have found both positive and negative. I myself was unaware of our height differences.. I loved him reguardless, however my experience with the shorter man was that I never felt "protected". Now I understand fully that height was not the only issue with this delemma, but it was a contributing factor. I now have in my profile that I would prefer to date men 6'0 and over. That is not to say I would throw away a good catch if he were shorter... but would like to be with a man who is not intimidated by me. He must be strong mentally and physically! | |

Posted: 12/1/2006 9:19:33 AM | Want a real honest guys answer... Shorter womens bodies feel better during sex. just the way they feel when your spooning, huging .. bumping.. you get the idea And Im not saying that because Im short.. I've had MANY male friends tell me this.
On the other hand.. Im short.. and many women wouldnt consider me as well.
As Im sure you will attest.. people just dont know what their missing! | |

Posted: 12/1/2006 2:55:46 PM | | Yahhroo... no we may not NEED to be protected anymore.... but it is nice to know that he CAN! All day Long at work I am always "in charge" or in the Boss role.. when I get home sometimes it's nice to relinquish my "authority" to someone who is physically as well as mentally stronger(taller) than me. I am a very dominant female and it would take a very rare man to be able to dominate me. It's really nice to switch things up once in awhile! | |

Taller does not mean stronger and shorter does not mean weaker. To be honest with you, I don't understand how your shorter b/f (husband?) stayed with you as long as he did. No offense, but your point of view seems "unenlightened".
Cheers.  | |
