For me if I truly like someone he is a giant in my eyes no matter the height. I understand that there is a period of adjustment that may be needed if I am taller and I am completely OK with that, because as long as he is him - I dont care. He is enough for me no matter what. He is absolutely perfect (so far... knock on wood dont want to jinx it your know) just as he is.. I wouldn't change a thing.

I dated a guy that was 6'7" and I'm barely 5'...I ordinarily wouldn't consider someone beyond 6'...but if there's something special...what can you do...and in the end it wasn't the height issue that ended things...go figure...holding hands would have been awkward and he couldn't understand why I never held his hand

Well, "cute" has always been my thing more-so than anything else; so about 5'2" to 5'4" is ideal for me, give or take an inch in either direction; and I'm an even 6' myself. I've dated taller girls, and was even with one for a few years that was 5'11"; so I don't consider height to be any sort of standard. With preferences though, short girls all the way... I'm not a small man, not fat and sloppy, but just a large man... and if my girl looks like a little kid next to me, I think that's hot as hell myself.

Most guys I know like to be taller than their gal. And most girls I know like to be shorter than their guy. If you identify as "short", then define "short". If you're less than 5' and you want a guy over 6', then that *might* be a problem. I wouldn't want to date a girl that had to stand on a stool to kiss me, but I'm only 5'9" so that hasn't been a problem yet.

Wow old thread! Anyway I am sure that there are the exceptions here and there of a tall woman dating a short man, but lets be honest here, it is not the norm. Most couples are pretty evenly matched as far as looks, social status, educational background, financial stability, family back ground etc...

Now I am sure I will hear the "but look at this couple or that couple" Yes the "exception" happens, but it's called an exception for a reason, because it is rare. What commonly happens is the man is taller then the woman for a couple reasons. First of all men are genetically geared to be bigger and taller then women and second because men are genetically geared to be bigger and taller woman go for men taller then they are.

Third of all some are genetically geared to be redundant speakers

"Do tall men date short women"?

What a dumbass question, I'm sorry. Most couples I see, the man is taller.

And if you mean 6'0 and over...do these men date women who are...5'5 and under? Then yes, this is also very common.

Anyone else find this, erm, NOT HOT?

Also, I am LostGirl's height and I like her response about men who are shorter, very much. I used to be uncomfortable about that... but I recently met a great guy who's a bit shorter than me. He's not cocky (at all) but he's confident enough in his own skin to make it work... that is sexy.

Let's bring Dr. Freud into the thread. Yes, short women do date a lot of tall guys. My theory is they were treated like kids for being shorter than everyone else, so when they become adults they still want to be pampered. Subconsciously, it's probably a daddy thing.

one guy in here on page 2 or 3 hit it DEAD ON, the short women saying im 5'2 and well put together and like my men 6ft minimum and built or lean blah blah, it just what attracts me/catches my eye....THEY ARE ALL HYPOCRITES

because if a man says, I like petite size small/xtra small, big boobs tiny waist, hally berry a$$, women its just what attracts me...these guys get yelled at for not giving non big boobed or non petite women a chance (the BBW crowd knows what i'm talking about here)

I just think it is hilarious women screaming men are shallow when most of the women in thir thread were pretty shallow about something that can't be changed (height) over something men are often shallow about (weight) that can be changed.

just my .02$

and no i'm not short.
