Some of us guys don't have the luxury of being so picky. I love them tall or short. I'm 6'1 or so and love 'em all.

I'm 5'9" tall and only date men who are taller than me. I just feel funny with a shorter guy. I am sure alot of women feel that way. I have a 36 inseam and have a hard time finding pants that are long enough. When are they going to make clothes long enough for us tall girls?

ahhhhh bonbons you hit the nail right on the head. 36" inseam on the shelf everywhere would be an answer to one of my many prayers. all those pants/jeans out there are more or less a 32" inseam ... for all those idiots that design clothes wouldn't it be easier to take hems up than to let them out??? duh not rocket science!!!! there are plenty of tall women in this world that are sailing on the same boat as us .... longer inseams PLEASE!!!!!!

Personally I have to say I’m more attracted t tall women but height is by no means the be all and end all it’s the person that counts and we are all different, that’s the important bit

I like tall women just fine, I had one living with me for almost a year.

The only thing that bothered me was the stand-up kissing, or lack thereof.

I'm 5'-10" + maybe 2" of cowboy boot. My old girlfriend was 6' and she liked wearing really high heels. So if I'm 6" under optimal conditions and she's 6'-4" when dressed up, that means I'm up on tip-toes, head tilted back when we tongue wrestled. That's just wrong on sooo many levels.

The kissing was extremely awkward, just all backwards. I had to dip her whenever I wanted to really kiss her properly, and that can get a little hazardous if I was buzzin' hard or if the floor was slippery, LOL!

She also took up too much couch space when she stretched out those mile long legs, hehe.

Nothing wrong with tall women. Most of the time when you're talking to them, there's a little bit of distance so you're not craning your neck up to look them in the eyes. Slow dancing gets a tad awkward, but it's nothing major.

Often tall women act relieved more than anything when I tell them that I don't care how tall they are. I guess they had some bad experiences in the past or something.

Why mus twe all be so categorical on this site. "I only date girls that are 5'7 or less" "I only date men who are 6'0 and up. I mean, in real life, how do ascertain that this dude is actually 6 feet tall, do you pull out your tape measure and tell him to stand up straight and prepare for measruement?



These categories are so overrated.

There is no simple answer.

Some guys don't like it when a woman is taller than them. I'm not like that, so I won't attempt to express the opinions of this type of guy.

Personally I don't like it when a woman approaches my weight. Lots of women want to feel sexy and protected so they want tall guys. Me, I don't want to be crushed by my woman when she's on top of me during sex. That's why I don't want a woman that's too heavy.

Lots of "tall" women are also heavy women. I wouldn't date them because they are "tall", it's because they are heavy.

This "near my weight" rule is just a PREFERENCE. It's not a prerequisite, just something that is in the back of my mind when I'm thinking "hmm do I want to date this woman?".

I find a smart, fit, funny TALLer woman very sexy. Yum yum.

No Offense....I think it should be some guys, as for myself 6' 1 I'm open to tall females..but again everyones physical make-up and mind set are different to their desires and wants..

As a short woman, when I go out with my tall girlfriends, I get completely overlooked. My taller friends get all the attention. When I get away from them, then I might get approached. Maybe. If the tall ones are all sitting or in the bathroom. :)

I just keep telling myself it all relative, that there are plenty of guys out there for all of us, tall or short. But the truth is, relax and rejoice, tall women. For the most part you have us short ones beat to a pulp. /salute :)

It is not an issue for most guys. I think women of all heights can be very attractive. :)

I like tall women, however I think tall women don't care for men shorter than themselves. I was dumped by a beautiful woman that was 2 inches taller than myself because it bugged the heck out of her, or so she said

I find that tall males don't like tall girls. I am tall and I get overlooked by the guys taller than me. I get approached by short guys. I'm not ugly or anything, I'm in good shape so i have no clue. I do have a theory, though.

I have a preference for tall women. I don't care if they're taller than I.
But notice the restrictions some of the women's profiles put on height...and responses in some of the threads about height.

It's never exact... little things like even having to look up into someone's Eyes.. instead of straight into them... everyone has little idiosyncrasies about them the fact that people admit it openly rather than dragging it out would be a good thing would it not...

Tacky though it may be... I like the tip-toe kinda kiss... By the way Padd nice new pic.. less scary :o)

i think your right
i like tall females
but believe that most guys don't
i always wanted a taller female then me (mainly because of how the men in my family treated their woman, the females were shorter and was always ran over and disrespected and looked down on. so i figured at a young age i wanted a woman taller then me so i would never look down on her... So maybe a lot of guys see my view from the opposite)
whose ever is the tallest or biggest runs the situation
more or less who wears the pants in the relationship

or
just maybe
i'm ('')

i would'nt agree. lots of guys dont mind a woman being taller as long as they dont need a stepladder to kiss her. anyway when you take the high heels away, its all so level all of a sudden. personal preferences come into it, but generally people go for their own height mates or close to them. me fein.

Ok some where back about 20 messages ago some fella made a comment about bigger women, that is your right to choose a smaller woman, but for the record I stand 6'1" and I am almost 230lbs and I have NEVER had issues finding a date.. Now finding a quality man is a different story LOL... It doesnt matter if someone is tall, or short, or fat, or skinny, or bald, or has brown eyes, or orange hair... When all is said and done at the end of the day... Look INSIDE for the true and real beauty..
