Posted: 5/2/2008 9:01:13 PM | Well women are more shallow.
When men want a thin woman they are judging her on something that she can control through diet and excercie.
When wanting a tall guy you are essentiall judging on something determined before birth.
I don't even get why there should be such a height difference between a man and woman.
The cutest couple are the ones in which the man is only and inch or two taller than his woman. This not only looks nice but I can imagine it is comfortable in terms of cuddling, sex , and kissing. | |

Posted: 5/3/2008 1:30:23 PM | A woman's height is not an issue for me but I am at the extreme of the spectrum. I have not come across a woman taller than me yet. In heals perhaps but only close to me height.
I do recall a tall female friend some years ago complaining about having to spread her legs out to hug her shorter man. Perhaps it is that dreaded natural instinct that women desire taller men? It could be biological programming? | |

Posted: 5/3/2008 6:15:22 PM | | I think this is another old taboo, about how the guy has to be taller than the girl...like in Hollywood, the short guys had to have platform shoes so they would be a certain height above their leading ladies. I do know of a few guys who describe themselves as short and who prefer women who are not taller than they are. For me it isn't an issue since I'm 6'2" but I'd be happy to walk with or stand next to a girl who was the same height or even taller than me, but there aren't many women basketball players in Pittsburgh. Most guys, even tall guys, are kind of in awe when they see a 6' tall girl. | |

Posted: 5/3/2008 6:19:54 PM | | I am about 5'10". I would love a 5'8" to 5'9" girl. I just think it would be so cofortable to look someone pretty much right in the eyes. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 12:20:47 PM | I have never minded dating taller women ... my problem is the hang up women have dating shorter men.
I never knew if it was cuz they were worried about what others would think, or if they really had a valid reason (in their minds). Think about it... when you are having dinner, watching a movie, having sex, etc does it really matter that I am 2 or 3 inches shorter than you? In my book, a woman who will not date a shorter man is not better than a woman who dates a guy for his money - they are both 110% superficial. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 12:50:43 PM | Some women get carried away; I dated one woman who was my height and she insisted she wear high heels. To be honest I dont like women in high heels anyway; not a turn on for me; but they can do what they want. I think though she loved the attention of being such a tall woman because everyone talked to her.
Again, it doesnt' matter as long as the woman doesnt' go crazy. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 3:26:23 PM | a lot of things matter much more to women .
mans hands !!!!!, mans height, if he drives, good wage, confidence...........
personally speaking, how a womans hands look, her height, if she drives/does not drive, her income, her confidence level dont matter at all to me, as long as she is kind, caring, loving and only has eyes for me are just some of the things that matter to me.
a womans height, be it small or tall , i couldnt care less, i wish many more women felt like this.
a mans hands ( how they look, size etc ..........lol ) and a mans height are just a few things that seem to matter SO MUCH to some women. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 3:30:59 PM | | From my perspective, no height is not important. But then I am 6'3" but find a 5'10" woman equaly as attractive as a 5' woman. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 3:34:02 PM | I would date a woman no matter how tall she was as long as I was attracted to her in some way. To be honest I would be well chuffed (pleased for my US friends) if a woman that was a fair bit taller wanted to date me.
Unfortunately you seem to be a rarity in that the vast majority of women won't even give the time of day to a guy that is shorter than them.

Unfortunately...it is for me OP....Iam a shallow SOB
I prefer women on the shorter side.....usually a couple of inches shorter than me or even a bit shorter...
Tall women get upset with me because I keep talking to their boobs and they feel left out....
I don't have a logical reason why I prefer shorter women....I just do | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 5:09:16 PM | foxyfoxymama,
Height is important for the majority of men. I'm laughing to myself at the thought that perhaps women think that men tend to date women shorter than themselves because girls almost always insist on a taller guy. Actually, the preference works both ways.
To the best of my knowledge, most men who are average height or taller are not likely to date a woman who is taller than them. On the other hand, guys who are shorter than average seem much more likely to date a woman who is taller than them. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 5:37:50 PM | Well women are more shallow.
I should slap you, and every other men that blame shallowness for their lack of success. You're a man, act like it. For all of the guys that blame their female counterparts for discriminating amongst their genetic disease of shortivity(yes, I made that up), you deserve to be slapped. With a back-handed motion at that.
This is exactly the reason why you can't ever seal the deal with a taller lady, or anything remotely out of your league(or so you think they are). You lack the confidence, the cojones, the panache, or generally the basic attitude to over-come these "short-comings". Dress in pinstripes, dress in dark, look in the eyes to divert attention from your scalp.
I swear to god, each time I log on to browse the forums, I see the average impudent men, with no self-endearment, no ego, nothing. You've got to be a lion in this world. Do you think opportunities flop in your laps? You've got to take it, my dear countrymen. Si vis pacem, para bellum.
And no, I don't mind tall women. And tall women don't mind me. My bank account makes up for my height.  | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 6:26:53 PM | Must be this tall to ride
Ok, now that I have that out of the way, I don't see why anyone's so hung up on height. I'm taller than almost everyone in my area so it's hard to be my height or taller, so it's not an issue for me. I'd just have to adjust if someone was near my height or taller, since I'm not used to it.
Although I'll admit I'd be a little put off by someone taller at first, since that's an incredibly rare thing for me. | |

Posted: 5/10/2008 11:32:34 PM | I have a rule. If I can't lift a girl above my head then it ain't happening.
Guys just like petite women. It gives men a sense of being in control.
Really, even sex wise imagine how difficult it would be if the woman was that much larger then the man. I like to think i'm a pretty healthy guy but moving 170+ pounds vs 100-120 can be logistically difficult and cause bad backs and other health problems. | |

I call BS on this. If that is what is required for a man to feel "in control", then he's a shallow, meaningless, weak-minded, half-braindead piece of filth. If he gets his sense of worth from "being in control", or even feels "in control" because of something so arbitrary as whether a woman is "petite" or not... He's barely worth the effort it would take to stuff him in the compacter at the junkyard.

It's because some men communicate things like this that women feel justified in weeding men out on the basis of their height. As long as women think it's all right to discriminate on the basis of something no one has any control over, you're going to continue seeing men pop up in the "Ask A Girl" forum complaining about the rampantly indefensible heightism that's so prevalent amongst female Americans. | |

Wow, then females really are the stronger sex because if that were the case no man would ever get laid again. The logistics would be too difficult for us.
But its really a matter of having an issue/preference and not acknowledging it. Instead, you are looking for ridiculous excuses for how you feel. Excuses which are innaccurate and insulting to those who don't fall within your preference zone.
It's not that they are interested in you, it's that you insult those you aren't interested in. Whether your 120 or 170plus, not an attractive trait. | |

Posted: 5/11/2008 5:56:38 AM | Well, maybe I'm the only male that thinks like this, but height IS important to me. If a woman is much shorter, kissing her becomes a bit awkward. I'm 5'9" and kissing someone, say, 9" shorter than me means that if I want to kiss her while standing, I have to bend over a goodly amount. The bad thing about that is that there's not enough "body-to-body" going on during the kiss because of that 'bend' in the anatomy. And what happens when a woman that is taller than me puts on heels? Same bend in the other way.
My sister is quite a bit taller than me and I remember as kids just kissing each other goodbye was pretty awkward.
In spite of what the other men say, height has GOT to be important. | |

What an arrogant SOB. Of course, you are only 31, so you have much to learn about women...and you! Just wait nine or so more years when your body begins the inevitable process of deteriorating. Write the same thing then or better yet, say it to some woman face-to-face. Your "sex wise" life will surely be short. And your "if I can't lift a woman above my head then it ain't happening" is pretty short-sighted.
Just wait until you turn 40. Then 50. Then 60! You will look back on all this and laugh at your immaturity! | |

Opinions are like assssholes... the thing is not to be bitter because everyone has one my old friend and not to take everything personally.
If you like BBW woman I'm happy for you. | |
