| Why don't tall men choose to date tall women?
Posted: 5/7/2006 6:33:32 PM | I wish I could offer up some enligthening advice on the subject but I can't. Could be that big guys like a woman that seems small and frail so they feel like the big protector type. Maybe they like it that the small girl makes them look even bigger. Maybe they just have a kink in their back and it feels good to bend down and stretch it, so why not kiss someone when there are bend over!
To reverse the question on you, in you're exerience why do tall women say no to dating shorter men? I myself find taller women very attractive, but being 5'8 they stay away like I'm the plague. Does a shorter man not treat you as well as a tall one?
I think it is still a bit of old stereotypes pop-ing up. The old "The man should be taller than the woman" thing. I think its all horse pucky. People are people. Find the one that you get along with the best and don't worry about size either way. | |

Posted: 5/7/2006 9:47:03 PM | i can't really speak for any other tall men (of course) but i'm 6'3 and i really do like tall women
there are a lot of things i like about the idea of dating a tall woman, the only problem is they are few and far between, i've almost dated a few women based soley on the fact that they were tall, and i knew very little more about them, thats not my only guideline, but i do like them, and generally is considered a plus
but thats my two cents anyway | |

in my opinion they don't say no. the only guy i have ever been with was 5ft9, which is a fair few inches shorter than myself. and he was the nicest guy i ever knew... | |

maybe you're right... about there being too few. but in my area there seems to be an abundance of tall girls, so i don't know. i guess it varies from place to place! | |

Posted: 5/8/2006 8:38:27 PM | I'm 6'0 tall, and I prefer women that are shorter than 5'6".
Just a matter of preference, really. I tend to shy away from the taller girls. I just love petite women. | |

Posted: 5/8/2006 9:17:18 PM | I don't date tall women, because I have mechanical difficulties with them. I am not large enough to fully accommodate them, if you know what I mean. Not that I'm all that small. There are other issues too. But there's no need to go into any of that here. | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 6:17:42 AM | At 5'2, well technically 5'1 1/2 last I got a physical ...apparently I lost half an inch somewhere, anyone see where it went?
I love tall men! I don't care how tall they are! The last guy I dated was 6'4, I loved it..Gives me a chance to wear some kick ass heels!
I apologise to the taller women for wanting a tall man, but, but....they're sooooooooo irresistable! | |

I'd probably be uncomfortable at first around someone my height or taller, but I'd get over it easily. I think I'd end up with back problems if I married someone too much shorter than me. When you're bent over so far to kiss them that you can't still hug and be close, it's kinda annoying too. | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 7:28:51 AM | | well, i like tall men, but i don't want them too tall either. in my books, too tall is about 6"4 plus. ideally, i would prefer it if the guy was at least 5"9, but never say never, that doesn't mean i wouldn't go out with guys that are less than that height. it's just that i personally like it when there's a big height difference between myself and a guy, it makes me feel more feminine. i'm 5"3, and if i was to go out with someone that's 5"4, i mightn't like it, however, if i was something like 4"10, then i wouldn't mind, cause 6" is a big enough difference. On the other hand, i've seen some tall guys that looked really frail and repulsive, and they actually looked worse BECAUSE of the fact that they were so tall, it meant that they stood out too much. But i also take into account the build of the guy, and i think that at the end of the day even outweighs his height for me, that's why i never say never to guys that are "vertically challenged", cause he might have a manly build, and that's much more appealing than a tall lanky guy, and standing next to him would make me feel more feminine. all i'm saying is that if i was to describe the physical appearance of my ideal guy, tall would factor into it as well. sorry for that long-winded explanation, i didn't know how to shorten it. | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 8:35:13 AM | I am 6' 9" tall and honestly, I think I do tend to like women that are around 5' 6" to 5' 9" tall. Just a preference.
But, I have dated someone that was 5' 4" and it was no big deal. Took alittle getting used to for both of us, but we ended up having a lot of fun and the height wasn't an issue in the end. . And, I dated someone that was 6' 2". That too was different but again, I think once I got to know her and became comfortable with her as a person, the height was no big deal.
So, while I prefer someone that's 5' 6" to 5' 9"(and a redhead is always nice, LOL), I would date someone taller or shorter and it would be no problem if we both liked eachother and were having fun.
Also, at 6' 9", I've never ran into anyone taller than me, but you never know m LOL.
When I was younger, there was this girl I worked with the was tall, about 6' 0", and even though at the time, I had only dated shorter women, I wanted to get with her sooo bad. LOL. The reason I didn't? We became really good friends. | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 8:59:25 AM | ketevan, I know what you mean. I also consider a man's built overall. I typically go for the solid muscular atheletic type as would most women here. Lately I've come to appreciate the thin, atheletic type, which is the bodytype of the man I'm dating now. He's a marathon runner  | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 10:56:19 AM | I have to admit, I do have height preferences. I'm a little over 5'9" and do prefer to date men taller than me. Its just a physical personal prefence like some guys might prefer red heads.
I can emphathise with the op though. Seems like all the really tall ones get snatched up by the teeny people that I bump into by mistake because they were below my line of vision.
C'mon girls...you got the whole petite thing going on, leave the really tall ones for the gals who need them!  | |

Posted: 5/10/2006 11:19:46 AM | If I could pick the perfect height I wanted to be it would be 5'7". Short enough that it would open up the field more but tall enough I can still reach stuff  | |
