I'm six three flat footed. With the caboy boots, that makes me six six. Guess I'll never know the experience of a taller woman.
When I see a tall girl holding her own, standing straight and tall, shoulders back, I see a confident woman. That makes me proud of her.

but thats the point...
any woman that does that - no matter her height - is a strong and confident woman.
And don't give up - there are lots of women out there your height, I have seen them in teh clubs when I used to go - so they are out there.

I am 6' 2" my ex wife was 5' 1" my current girlfriend is 5'3". I really do find myself attracted to the small petite women, not real sure why though.

I"m 6' tall. Call me an amazon, whatever, it don't bother me. I'll put my ropers and levi's on and all is well. I've had alot of men hit on me. I've also had men come off as idiots because of my height. I come from a small town, so tall women are not a commodity here. I've been called a "tall drink of water" , "your legs seem to make an a$$ of themselves, can i touch that a$$", "your legs lead to heaven". It really doesn't bother me at all. If I "click" with someone, that's fine. When I used to go out, I was VERY confident, because I KNEW I looked good. I think it's all in the way you present yourself. I never looked like a snob, I was very easy to talk to, and I loved to dance and have fun. (I still do, altho my health has slowed me down alot) There's comments made to me about my height alot. I just blow it off. It's all about personality to me!! The guy I'm seeing right now is a lil shorter than me, do I care, NOPE!! Does he?? If he did, I don't think he'd still be seeing me!! But oh he's sucha hottie!!

^^^I hear ya. 6'0 tall barefoot. DAMN PROUD!! My best friend is 6'0 aswell. Its fun when we go out and get dressed up, people all stop to look at us. Its always funny , the girls who are jealous when we go to a club or something, they give us harsh attitude, and we just brush them off like they are nothing!! HAHA.


MY bf is around 5'10... He loves that I am tall. I love that he's a shortie. MMM.. short men are hot!!

MMM my bf is hot!!!

5'10" isn't short! Good Grief. 5'10" is the *average* height for men. When I hang out with the theater geeks at Pitt, I'm one of the tallest two or three guys there. And... not when I hang out with the ladies basketball team, but I don't mind.

That is not so. I am 5'10" and I was dating this tall red head.
We would dance at the bar, go to the movies and dine out.
No big woof!! It is Madison Ave. the stupid societal brain wash that
makes us all think a certain way. Phooey on all that.
If a man likes a tall gal, break the ice, and take a chance.
It may be best time your lives.

Ohhh to find me a very tall gal like in the first Deuce Bigalow film...
She would be soooo worshipped!

Im 6'1 barefoot. I like being tall. It is funny really. I dont notice the fact that I am tall until people point it out. People can make idiots of themselves sometimes. I never point out the fact that you have acne all over your face, or that you are balding, yet society always has to point out the fact that Im tall.
I love it, Im not going to change, so there. And when the perfect guy does come along, may he be 6'5 or 5'10, I will love him just the same as he will love me

That isnt true for all of us. I wont date any woman under 5'6 since I am 6'3. I think it is the other way around, women are more into these little short runts before tall.

It seems to me that you see being tall as some kind of flaw that people are drawing attention to. I think it's the reverse -- people are admiring your height, just like you might point out that I have beautiful eyes.

As for the poster's comment about "short little runts" -- I present this as more evidence as to why the 5'6" guy develops a chip on his shoulder that people then refer to as "short man syndrome."

Just don't wear 3" inch heels. I gave those up almost ten yrs. ago.
I''m 49 5'8" and super sized gal. Some tall men like short women for the sexual positions. Just like all of us like different sized partners for the sexual positions choices. Let's get real. Since I'm a very thick woman, My partners should be lean or average and well sized, also not shorter than me. I prefer 5'11" and taller.

I dont think that height has much to do with a person's dating potential, but it does have everything to do with the initial attraction. I LOVE tall men... 6 feet and taller....WOW!!!!!!

BUT:

I am NOT by any means a tall girl... 5 feet even. In the tallest heels a gal can buy, Im still not "average height"...

Although I like being short... I have accepted that it is who I am, I have noticed that many people treat "us" (meaning the shorter ones) with almost a parent/child approach in conversation. Like my lack of height is directly connected to my intelegence. I can see how it could go the other way as well... taller women could be seen as intimidating and not as "persuasive" as they think shorter women are. I think that subconsciously, men have the provider instinct, and it is much easier to do that for someone you feel is small and defenseless.... but dont think that short women have it made... its not easy being short either. There is a such thing as being "too short"... (like me) where guys say all the time "OH Im a foot taller than you.. thats too much of a difference." or make STUPID comments like "5 feet tall? I could bounce you on my knee!" Many times, because of our height... we get (pardon the pun) overlooked.

One reason that I prefer smaller women -- not necessarily short, but weight does tend to correlate with height -- my last gf was 5'7" and 124 lbs, and I loved the sexual ballet. I could pick her up and spin her around, and if one of us got thirsty after a while I could just stand up and carry her out to the kitchen, and still keep going without ever breaking contact or pulling out. I can still handle a larger woman, but not with such ease and grace, and at some point it just gets silly to even try. So, the size isn't a deal-breaker, but it's a factor.
