I find it mad sexy on those all too rare occasions when a gal I find hot is eye-to-eye with me, and I'm above average in height. So I can't very well answer your question...

Absolutely true. I get turned down constantly for not being tall. I'm sure there are other reasons but the height is definitely a main reason. No one is better than someone else because they are taller. It's practically a handicap.

Realone, jst go to a country with short people and get yourself a fine woman.
Mexican women are usually really short! I dated a Salvadorian girl(I know not Mexico but close) and she was 4'9.

Also Latin ladies are very feminine. Far more-so than American and Canadian girls. Sure they may do other crazy things more often but say it's worth it in the end.

^^^^^^ There are just as many short and average height women with "weight issues" as tall women. If anything, 10 extra lbs will be more apparent on a 5' woman than a 6' woman.

Don't give up hope.
Some men find tall women really attractive. I'm sure there are statistics, and a smaller percentage of men who want a tall lady. However, it's no reason to start believing that all men feel that way.
My sister is really tall, and she found a taller guy who loves her more than anything. You can find a guy like that, too.
Happy hunting!

i am one of those guys. i am 5'7", which is considered "tall" from an asian guy of my age, and i prefer women who are 5'9" and above. heck, i can imagine how fun it would be for me to date a woman who is 6'3" like one of my favorite female athletes.

I've met lots of tall guys who dated girls who were very short. But it's not a hard-and-fast rule. I've known tall guys who dated girls their height, or close to it.
I've also met some short guys (5'5") who adore 6' women.

The intimidation thing is a point, though. Guys love that protective feeling that they have when the girl is shorter than them. So in general, they prefer girls who are shorter than them. But it won't stop them dating a woman they think is drop-dead gorgeous. Uma Thurman could pick almost any man in the UK and he'd go out with her in a heartbeat.

Personally, its all preference. I like short chicks, but I find taller ones just as attractive. Everyone's different.

I like tall women.. In fact I would prefer a tall woman.. but the thing is if she's six foot tall... she's usually six foot wide and looks like chewbacca.

Not saying I'm looking for a skinny **** with her ribs sticking out.. I like me some thickness... but damn.

I myself love to find a girl that looks great at 6 feet or so. Too bad those are extinct like unicorns. I have to broaden my horizons :(

I absolutely LOVE tall women (I am 6 feet 1 inches). There is nothing more sexier, sensual or romantic than to gaze into a woman's eyes at eye level. Mmmmmmmmm.

alloy.com goes up to 37" kind of junior styles but can find great classic jeans and dress pants there. J crew gap victorias secret, bannana republic, and old navy all have tall sections with the sleeves long enough and 36" inseam pants...hope this helps :-)

In response to the OP. I'm 5'10" - 5'11" and this hasn't been a problem for me. I find women close to my height very appealing on top of initial attraction. Problem is, they all seem to be spoken for. :(


Then again, Tucson isn't that big.

Well, since women being picky creatures that they are tend to use height as an overeasy refusal line, more often than not 'just because', all men learn prety fast to stop asking even thoguh they can easily find a taller woman insanely attactive - saves the time and grief and we are all adversity adverse creatures That fact of life also means that tall guys have quite a larger choice and being just guys like all others they also tend to fall flla women that don't look like they are going to give them much trouble, except the good trouble of course

So, the only thing I can reasonably say to a tall women complaining that she can't get a man "by the spec" is - start a social movement to convince other women to just stop insisting on that irrational "2 in taller" (copy the methods of anti-fur-coat movement ) and in just a few years you'll see a big change - not to mention becoming planetary celebrity, experiencing both personal growth and financial one and saving a ton on not buying high heels which are unhealthy anyway

I'm average height...5'8". Every tall woman I have approached brushed me off by saying she doesn't want to "kiss down". As such, it is the tall women with the problem. How could tall guys be intimidated if short ones aren't? Your personality, manner of dress, or something, is possibly getting in the way. Then, too, maybe the tall guys like being something special to a short woman, rather than just average to a tall woman. It doesn't matter why tall guys shun you, unless you are only interested in tall guys. If you, then, are allowed your preferences, and prejudices, so are the tall guys allowed theirs. Such is life.

I wouldn't be put off by someone above my height but that will need to be above 6'4", so take your best shot.

I like petite women, but if a tall lady is dazzling I'm absolutely interested.

Folks there's a reason why supemodels and Miss America pageant contestants are all around the 6 foot mark. They look better. Men find this intimidating. I think it's funny when a guy is a half a foot taller than his girl. How insecure is this guy that he needs to feel like a giant? Give me some long sexy legs anyway.

although I'm not 6 ft tall, I'm 5'9'' and I will admit that there a few dating challenges that taller women seemed to face, but if want a tall guy, you gotta think tall men......where do they hang out, my guess is the basketball court or near the gym. Is there a store in your area that caters to them? Do you have tall male friends they tend to hang out in packs so go get you some girl. Hint: I found mine at a mixer called the Tall/Thin only.
