Posted: 4/5/2007 5:15:46 PM | | Some men are. I do not know why. The taller the woman, the hotter she is for me. I do not know why that is, but I like muh ladies tall. I mean, it is not a requirement or a fetish or anything, but it is certainly not a turnoff. | |

WTF? So tall women are like this because of hormone injected animals? nothing to do with genetics? And really - calling someone a GIANT? would you like to be called a midget? probably not - so probably not so nice to say it back. Come on, don't you think someone who is asking a question about height has already heard all these dum school yard cracks. Next you'll be asking what the weather is like up there? does she play basket ball, blah blah. I despair sometimes I really do! | |

Posted: 4/5/2007 6:58:47 PM | | I haven't been intimidated. But I've never met anyone over 6' 2' and I'm 6'5". So I'm not used to anyone close to my height. Actually I'd love to go out with a woman my height and find out. | |

Posted: 4/5/2007 7:46:50 PM | | As a tall women I understand completely how you feel. I am well lets say 5'11 and usually wear heels so 6'1 and I have found if I put 5'10 on a dating site I get more hits then if I put 5'11. I have read many of the comments posted and in general personality is what is going to keep a guy but attraction is what is going to start a converation. So one tall girl to another Good Luck!! | |

Posted: 4/18/2007 8:51:33 PM | Most men (including me), whether tall, short, or average, aren't intimidated by tall ladies. I've never heard a man say he didn't like a woman because she was "too tall".
Men don't really care about height in women - height is something women care about in men.
I think what you really want to know is why TALL men aren't hitting on you...but that's a topic for another thread. | |

Are men intimidated by tall ladies? I have been on here a few months now. So far I have talked to a few people but have not meet anyone in person yet. Have not been asked out on a date - just made a few good friends. So I am beginning to think that it has something to do with my height which I am very proud of by the way.
I'm not intimidated at all, but then I don't even remember meeting a woman taller than me hehe. I recall seeing your profile before and when I checked again it reminded me that you are way up the Crowsnest pass. I used to live not far from there and I don't even remember much up there, so my guess would be that the biggest obstacle you have here is the distance from major population centers where a lot of the men are. | |

Posted: 4/18/2007 10:17:39 PM | | Tall women don't bother me as much as the thought that a tall woman wouldn't want to have anything to do with me, so I figure I shouldn't waste the energy. I definitely have a thing for the long legs and all, but in my experience, most taller women don't seem to be interested, which is totally their right. | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 6:44:48 AM | Height is a taste preference. I don't think that would be the reason why guys won't meet you if you're talking to them. If they weren't initially interested by your profile I don't think you'd be chatting long.
Reading your profile I see that you com across as clearly knowing what you want and possibly having quite high expectations. Through chat guys might find hard to live up to and then move on. But that's just me reading between the lines. | |

Are men intimidated by tall ladies?
those men who are shorter than me or same height feel intimidated if I wear high heels
Girls. Do actually know men that become timid because you put on SHOES???? I think you girls are just looney. Basically in tape mode. Ya just keep saying intimidated over and over again hoping it will become true rather than realizing men are just plain old not intimidated when you are thier height, but rather that they just prefer shorter women and you just are never going to un-grow?
one date complained cuz I wore my go go boots on our first meet and he was a half an inch shorter than me with them on
Yup. So all men are the same. And when he complained how do we know he wasn't chiding you in a lighthearted way? I know I would. Not because I was "intimidated" but just because it would be incongrous, not bad.
Madness. | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 7:45:36 AM | | You should start with friendship anyways. I personally have never dated anyone above 5'10" (I'm 6'5"). Not that it is a prerequisite, just that I haven't met anyone your height. It would take a little adjustment on my part, but I could sacrifice. | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 9:58:57 AM | | I was dating this guy (long time ago..lol) who had an issue when we went out. He told me that he felt silly standing next to me when I wore heels. He may have just been insecure, but I would not say intimidated. I have ran across some guys who said they were intimadated by me. It could have been my height or the fact that I use to be a weight lifter. In the end, shorter guys are not a bad thing. They are just as good as a tall guy..sometimes even better to you. The fact that there are a small percentage of tall women out there does make it hard to find one who is as tall or taller. I did post in another thread about how I have noticed that the taller guys tend to go for the shorter women. This is in any aspect..taller, shorter, bigger, skinnier.etc..Give the shorter men a chance and you may find that the height thing does not matter. | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 10:06:52 AM | | i had a 5'1 ex once. i'm 6'4 the downside there is you can't have a proper hug. i prefer taller women than that cos its more physically compatible. I have new rock boots now which make me 6'6! | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 2:29:36 PM | | Height is a beautiful quality to be admired. Although, I guess from my point of view, I may be somewhat biased in that I generally don't have that problem of meeting women taller then me. Tall is a very sexy quality. | |

Posted: 4/19/2007 3:25:09 PM | I have been with a disproportionate amount of taller women in my life. I attribute that to the fact that I don't think of them as tall women first, but as women. One constant they all had was that they were being reminded that they were tall on a daily basis. "hey, you're tall!"" How big are your feet" etc... So you can imagine when they come home, they want to be able to feel vulnerable, feminine and protected to some extent.
It does seem that really tall men want the really small girls, and the really small guys want the really tall girls. That has never made any sense to me, but since when does attraction make sense?
As for me, I don't have a type, if they catch my attention and have something beyond that, then I'm good to go regardless of height or body type. | |

Maybe you are right and the word intimidated is wrong, but it is a truth that ' some' men find it difficult to deal with women who are much taller than them. Maybe the men who are insecure in themselves. I have certainly had men be quite unpleasant and almost aggresive with me, for no good reason (backed up by friends) and the only thing I have ever been able to put it down to is height! I have no problem with it, but to say it doesn't exist is belittling a something that maybe you don't have any experience of.
At the end of the day there are expectations of what is 'normal' and when someone goes against that, there will always be comments - right or wrong. In the end, we just have to accept that what is.. is.. and deal with it. | |
