| Why don't tall men choose to date tall women?
Posted: 5/10/2006 6:06:37 PM | | I'm 5'1 I like being short although in most peoples opinions because i am short they say ooo your just sooo cute... maybe its cuz we look huggable I don’t know... I've dated a lot of tall guys, most of them over 6'1 and hey that’s what im attracted too or notice right away... but oh well most guys are taller then me lol so idk... I like taller guys because i feel safe and protected...and that’s very important | |

because they want power and control
Hmm, I don't know about that. I've found just in my experience that the shorter ones seem to want to prove their power a heck of a lot more then taller men..
I find generally taller men are much more gentle..JMO | |

Posted: 5/12/2006 8:33:17 PM | This is an easy question...
Again, people that ask questions and get an honest reply don't always like what they hear, but usually there is some truth to it.
First about me - I am an average guy...about 5'11". I have an average 195pd weight, etc. I have had two relatively long term relationships (3 and 5 years) with women almost my exact same height.
My perspective.
The break down...
1. Being tall is a commodity in our dating society...whether it is a woman or a man.
2. Women that are tall get hit on a lot and end up having to constantly diss men.
3. Tall women tend to be picky and not easily satisfied with much.
3a. Women that are not satisfied will often be looking for the Next Best Thing (NBT).
4. People are looking for love (meaning compassion, understanding, trust)
5. People do not like those that have egos, and are always looking for the NBT, and want a relationship that goes beyond the initial courting, and progesses to more deeper parts of a relationship.
6. Tall women in general are not a good choice if a man is looking for something long term and that is going to last a lifetime, because the tall woman will eventually look for someone else to come along, or will be hit on by other men, and think she is better than the guy she is with.
7. The more experienced the man, the more likely he is going to go for a shorter woman, even if it is subconsciously. Only superficial men will be attracted to taller woman. (of course this is stereotypically speaking and doesn't include the many other factors involved)
Conclusion:
The only reason you see taller men with shorter women, is because the taller women have egos so large that they think they are too good for everyone and who wants to be around that? Not me.
My personal opinion, is that shorter women, for whatever reason, are much more compassionate and caring. Although I haven't had a LTR with a shorter woman yet, I think maybe I'd still be in a relationship if I had.
The fact is, tall is good if you are just looking to play around, but if you want a serious relationship, then go for shorter women guys. I've lived the life of being with tall women and it's not that great...lol.
I might be biased because I have only dated taller women, but that is my impression at this point. My x-girlfriends would always come back to me, but they never seemed to be satisfied with anything. They were into this instant gratification thing...always shopping, having "the girls nights out", etc, etc. Both the LTR's ended because I found out they had men on the side.
So, that's my experiences...as the saying goes..."short and sweet". | |

Posted: 5/12/2006 11:28:20 PM | | actually that's a myth to think that shorter men have some kind of napolean complex....I believe socially taller men are expected to lead others or to take command; hence the reason why I made that last statement | |

Posted: 5/13/2006 12:12:25 AM | I agree with a lot of posts made here.
The one that I agree with the most is from someone who said that the OP is probably only looking at her height as to why men are not interested...she said herself that she is bitter.
You attract what you put out.
I'm 5'2 so I am sorry for taking the 'tall' men. I like em 6ft and up. I love the dynamic of the relationship of a tall man and a shorter woman. Men have an innate sense to protect, and well...it's just easier when your a shorty.
I think tall women can be sexy, but personally I'm afraid of you guys lol...it's not too often that I see tall women but when I do I just stare... (in a good way)
Maybe it seems that way to you, but seriously...really, how many tall women over 5'11 are there... definitely not as many women 5'8 and shorter, so really it's not that men don't date tall women, it's just that there are not that many of you. | |

Posted: 5/13/2006 1:59:29 PM | | I am 6'6" so I think I count..but I think most of my friends who are all ball players do date tall women...as long as they are attractive, and nice. Don't be bitter you just need to go approach tall men. But PLEASE don't ask us "how tall are you"? haha It's so unoriginal. | |

I diasgree with the first half, but agree with the second!
I think if a person has a desire to lead/command, and believes they have the ability, or more ability; yet see other people being 'chosen before them' for any reason, or perceived reason(ie height) will motivate certain people out of a sense of injustice.
Others, like myself(tall), are possibly more likely to stand by the wayside until the job either doesn't get done, or gets screwed up, and *then* try and step in!
btw, I'm 6'2", and would like to find more tall women!
Something else that was missed (or I didn't see)- some women don't want to be taller in heels...

Posted: 5/16/2006 12:06:05 AM | Well, to be honest...I really dont care that much...
Oh I do...oops
I dont want them to be taller then me...and I am 6"4...
That would just not look right...(my feeling and opinion)
But for the rest I dont even pay attention to how tall they are in here and when I meet someone I really dont care if she is shorter or as tall as I am...
Would be kinda cool to date someone as tall as I am...girl with long legs is kinda hot...
Anyway
Thats just how I see it... | |

Posted: 5/16/2006 12:20:43 AM | I am 6'6" and love tall women!!!
The problem is that I haven't crossed paths with very many tall women..........I have dated women as tall as 6 foot, but the majority have been shorter than 5'5". A tall woman will always turn my head, but it takes personality, a good sense of humour , intelligence and chemistry to keep my attention.
I guess when it comes right down to it, the important thing isn't the physical height of a woman, but who she interacts with me as a whole person. | |

Posted: 5/17/2006 11:59:41 AM | I think the question is in reverse. Why do short women seek and date tall men. Because of romours of how large the man is or might be. I stand 6ft 6in tall I been ask this question everyday of my life everywhere I go. But women ask "What size shoe do you where?" I ask several women why and I was told. So that they might compare body parts sizes ok. I have never dated a women 6 ft or more. And I talked to every women on the Volleyball and Girls Basketball team at college. Oh by the way the legend is true. Taller the Larger.  | |

Read my post again before you try and reply.
You totally missed the point.
And part of leadership of course is being able to hear what people are saying. It make arguments or disagreements easier to resolve if you can hear both sides.
cheers | |
