| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/20/2007 6:57:14 PM | Women seem to be really quick to throw out the "intimidated" label whenever things don't go their way. We're supposed to be intimidated by smart women, strong women, tall women, women who have good jobs, women who work in military/law enforcement, etc. It gets old.
I think it's normal and natural that men prefer women who are shorter than they are, just like women prefer men who are taller. It's hard-wired, and it's just the way it is. Sometimes it can be overcome, but for the most part you're probably just going to have to focus on men who are 6'4" or more. I know it narrows the field, but short men have to deal with the same thing. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/23/2007 5:05:47 PM | Not me sweetheart, taller and smarter the better. Unlucky for me though, a lot of ladies don't go for guys as short as me, it is a struggle..........
Only date I ever had with a lass as tall as you came about in Hawaii, lucked into a party with a female basketball team, guess it helps when every guy is short compared to all the ladies........fun to dance with as well........... I think this line got me in " I am standing up actually, and Im really 8 inces shorter than this, I'm standing on my wallet"
Would you like to go for scrucheons and beer? | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/4/2007 3:54:29 PM | No most definitely not!
I prefer taller women, up to 6'4" cool with me ( a few inches taller than I am .)
If guys are intimidated, are they the kind of guy you'd want to be with, anyway?
(that insecure?) | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/4/2007 4:07:11 PM | | Ah the male teenage fantasies of 50 ft woman cradling them in their bosom like paris hilton carries her dog. | |
|
| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/4/2007 4:17:34 PM | ^^^
funny, mine was to have a 3' foot tall woman who JUST came up to about my waist level.. ;)
bonus would have been a flat head I could rest a beer bottle on while lying back & .. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/8/2007 12:00:24 PM | ^^^^ and rabbit teeth to crack them beers open. heh oral could be painful though | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/8/2007 12:21:47 PM | | Men prefer tall women. However, it is a well known fact that women prefer to date someone taller then they are. Have you ever invited anyone on here who was shorter than you are on a date? Anyway, height is probably not your problem. | |

Love those peaches, baby Let me climb your tree!
From a SRV tune.
Tall women can be uncomfortable with shorter men. Probably because it attracts attention. At my age I could care less what other people think. I would hope the woman I am with has matured to that point also. I would like to see her in FMPs too!

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/8/2007 8:05:07 PM | | I'm about 6 ft tall. The average height of a woman is 5' 4". Even most tall women are still shorter than me. The few women I know that are 6 ft or taller, I'm not attracted to them. It has nothing to do with their height. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 5:30:53 AM | Intimidated by tall ladies????? For Gods sake get a grip!!!!!!! You are supposed to be men ffs.
My girlfriend is a tall lass...im 6 foot and she is about 6 foot 4. Intimidated???????? NO WAY!!!!!!!
In saying that i have dated women not as tall as me, one was 5 foot lol. It deosnt make any difference what height a person is. If you date soley on how tall/short a person is, that to me is the same as only dating blondes or only dating good looking people. By doing this you are missing out on what could be the most wonderful person in the world. I know for a fact that had i decided 'Oooooo she is taller than me, i cant possibly date someone taller than me' i would have missed out on THE CATCH of the millenium. Not only is she a lovely tall and slim lady but she has the most amazing sense of humour, is sharper than a laser scalpel adn she makes me smile anytime i think of her. Did i mention she is hot too? hehhehehe arent i the lucky one. She is also incredibly musically talented too, probably THE BIGGGEST TURN ON a guy that makes and repairs guitars can have.
So guys and ladies, dont be all stupid and NOT date someone because they dont fit into your 'date-height-range', that is just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Oh, and to my most lovely girlfriend if you read this.........Thank you for being allllll mine!!!!!! MUAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 7:25:14 AM | Intimidated? only if she looks grouchy and is benchpressing her Volvo.
Tall woman+slow dance= Face meet breasts ...... on what planet is this considerred a bad thing? You will find it is WOMEN that are more likely to have restrictions on dating by how tall someone is........ now that may work as a disadvantage for you since most guys know most women want a guy taller than herself. So if that isn't you mention it early on. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 9:59:19 AM | | Not me. The best woman I ever heard from was tall, and it didn't seem to matter to her that I am short. We only ever contacted through letters, so maybe that was part of it, but I would have met her in a cold minute had the situation ever arose. The same goes for any tall woman who'd be interested in me. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 11:19:56 AM | | I have seen this type of question often on POF. Are men imtimidated by tall women, strong women, smart women, successful women etc. IMO the majority of men do not care about height. However the majority of women ( at least on POF ) have height requirements. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 5:44:56 PM | | If you don't have a problem with dating shorter guys then make sure to say on your profile. Honestly, as soon as I see a gal is taller than me, I don't even bother looking at her profile a second longer because I'm so used to the requirement of having to be 5'10" or above to email a gal, let alone a tall gal. | |

| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 9:16:42 PM | Im five foot nine and Ive never had a problem with guys being "intimidated" by my height.Ive dated men anywhere from five ft seven to six ft four.Ive never been intimidated by anyone because of their stature either:)My kickboxing skills might intimidate a few people though  | |
|
| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 9:46:35 PM | Not intimidated here, ex wife was 6', and always wore heels.
That being said, I am 6'4" so I have better odds of becoming an astronaut than dating a woman taller than me. | |
|
| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/19/2008 10:07:07 PM | | i'm not... but its my experience that most taller ladies want to be with taller men. i'm 5'10, kind of puts me out of the running | |
|
| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 4/20/2008 4:05:58 AM | Im 5'10 and can't say guys have been intimidated by me (unless im drunk....) if anything i tend to get treated more like one of the lads than a woman but then that could be due to my personality...hmmm
but no..i dont think men are intimidated by height unless you have a gregarious personality to go with it. | |
|
| Intimidated by Tall Ladies? Posted: 5/2/2008 12:13:46 PM | | some men are thats there problem.some men think they have to be taller bigger whatever.but what do i nkow i love tall women could it be though because i am six six.to me its like seeing men over six feet walking a poodle first thing comes to my mind is gay and i shouldnt think that way. | |
