| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:29:18 PM | Theoritical, hypothetical situation for all the women out there..
I know how all you ladies can't help noticing a guy who's 6'0 and over. And Finding that his 6'0 tall stature is the primary factor in finding him appealing and attractive. Yes, his pretty face and cute button nose and tattoos are sexy too, but you notice and admire those traits AFTER you notice his 6'0 or over height.
Now, the hypothetical situation goes like this...
Say you come across and meet a guy who's 6'0 - 6'2 at work or online, or through friends. Struck with incredible luck, you ask him out or he asks you out and you start dating. The first few dates are wonderful and he seems so into you and treats you like a princess. Meanwhile, he's really tall, takes goodcare of himself and is built. Takes great care of his looks. Not a slob, abuser, jerk, manipulator and works out. So his physique is rather above average. Muscular. Nice abs. etc etc etc etc. He also has an amazing personality. Makes you laugh all the time etc etc
Now, struck by even greater luck. You find you have been in a relationship with this guy that lasted over a year and a half or more.
Then one day, he says he has to confess, share, tell you something...
So on your next get together...You're anxious to know what is the big secret he must tell you. That's so hard to share. Since you noticed he is troubled over how you will take it and he says it might affect your future with him and that you might even reject him for it.
Its his one flaw.
So you meet him and he confesses.
He is not naturally tall. He got his legs surgically lengthened. (There is a procedure which they break the bones and when it heals, they can use a devise that makes the bones in his legs grow, so when the bones heal, he can end up with 10 inch taller legs.) Its a rather extreme procedure...
Now, knowing he isn't genetically gifted with such a glorious height...
Would you still feel the same way about him?
Will you still see a future with him? Just as before? With a family and kids, etc etc..
Or will you start having doubts and not see him as being as beautiful as you used to see him before?
Will you dump him and move on for a naturally genetically tall guy?
I know this sounds crazy. Ladies, what are your answers? | |

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:32:48 PM | I really can't see basing a relationship on height. If I'd met him, dated him, and started to care about him, it would be for who he is INSIDE...in which case he'd be even more beautiful the more I got to know him. I'd also feel bad for him that he had such poor self-esteem that he felt in necessary to be taller to be "better".

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:33:24 PM | Can I have some of what you're smoking? Seems like a whole lot of doins for a "hypothetical" situation.
I'm doubting him already.
And I can't see it as incredible luck for a normal dude to ask a normal girl out.
Am I missing something here, or does this just sound retarded?

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:33:35 PM | so he would be only 5' tall before this surgery......well if your thinking children I would be thinking heck I'm 5'10" so maybe they wouldn't be sooooo short.....
and my questions is to you ....where in the heck did you dream this one up....lol | |
|
| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:41:52 PM | He should just wear heels. Surgery seems like an extreme.
However, I would be wondering, if he lied to me about this.... is that his real hair? Is anything else...enhanced?
Oh no! | |
|
| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:43:03 PM | here we go it is a little diff, but whatever he had the guts to tell u i would still be with him if i was the girl its pretty shallow if u stop datin' someone because of that take care | |

Now, knowing he isn't genetically gifted with such a glorious height...
Would you still feel the same way about him?
Assuming everything you just said... I can't fathom that being a deal breaker..... Or even considered betrayal or anything!
That's like a female getting breast augmentation and then sharing it with their S.O. by your timelines... Should/Would a guy sever ties in that relationship?
Would it change things for him? Or be it that drastic that after a year and a half he ends the relationship?
Seriously.... if that's a deal breaker for some... relationship problems may appear larger than you think.... | |

--- well - hypothetically he was 5'5 ...which is average these days I know, like 90% of the population is 5'5. The rest are 5'7, 5'8, 5'10 and the rare ones are 6'0 and up.
But, according to government standards. 5'4 is considered abnormally short. So he's one inch above abnormally short to today's standards of height.
When I say government standards. I mean, they authorize medical intervention when a kid is growing up, human growth hormone to increase his growth rate so he can reach 3-4 inches taller than his normal height.
According to government standards: For a girl, minimum abnormal height is 4'11. For a guy, minimum abnormal height is 5'4.
So, yeah normally he was 5'5. But after the procedure he is 6'0.
---
its the future she will have, with him: the family and the kids they have, that she might be bothered with and the grounds to be motivated to leave him for. | |

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:57:18 PM | it is no different than plastic surgery....why sweat it....
it is all irelevant, I love them as is, how they got to where they are in life is part of their character and history.
No issue here. | |

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:59:21 PM | a rather extreme procedure ?
omg.. man.. do NOT go breaking your legs for love. (what kind of doctors do this) .. ok I understand height can be an issue, but.. there are plenty of cute fish that are 5'2
I have a couple of crooked bottom teeth .. i'm not breaking my jaw and getting braces at my age...
With all the trouble women have gone through to impress men over the years.. learn from them, "love me for who I am": and find strength and confidence in that | |

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 1:59:40 PM | If he really added the full 10 inches, that would mean that he was originally 5'2 - unless the woman was thinking how tall the children would be, why would she care? Of course there's the notion of having kept the secret all that time, but, I don' t see the problem. Noone cares about your actual genes. Noone even cares about how you used to look.
Probably what’s more relevant is the fact that you kept it a secret. But something like that is not something you go around telling everyone right away anyway. Take this example - does anyone here care if a guy used to be heavier or lighter? No, probably not. What they’re attracted to is how you look now, that you’re already in the relationship. (And no, I don’t think this is comparable to the breast-situation. Why? Because some guys have this hangup about being able to tell…. Let’s just not get into that haha.) But I suppose you can compare this the plastic surgery hypothetical. And my answer would be, apart fro the secrecy, no, I wouldn’t care. | |

Well, its not so crazy when you see like 90% of the personal ads made by women on plentyoffish.com and other sites, like lavalife where a girl writes on her ad. I'm looking for a guy that is TALL, DARK and HANDSOME.
Or..
I'm looking for a guy that is in the 5'11 to 6'0 and up range.
Or..
I'm looking for a guy that is at least my height or taller.
Or..
I'm attracted to Taller guys.
Not to mention that alot of girls out there are 5'7, 5'10, 5'11 and up and they will NEVER in their life date a guy that is a head shorter or moer than them.
Even though you see 6'0 tall or over guys dating girls much shorter than them. A girl will drop dead before she gets in a serious relationship with a guy that is a head shorter or more than her.
...you guys know what I'm talking about. | |

| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 2:00:47 PM | hypothetical situation.
could you still love a man if you found out he was actually a woman before he got surgery? (BTW, average height of a man in the US is 5'9". I dunno about mexico, where im a friggin GIANT, but up here, 5'9" is the average height of an adult male. | |

I would think she was insecure, not a type of person who would tolerate me for long.
Next.

Would you date a woman if she was a whole head taller than you?
You know what they say... "If your nose to nose then your toes are in it and if your toes to toes then your nose is in it" | |

I might. The view would be spectacular. | |
|
| would you still love him if... Posted: 10/20/2006 2:51:20 PM | | Everyone has insecurities. Everyone has things they don't like about themselves and surgically change. I suppose this would be no different. It certainly wouldn't be a deal breaker for me, though. No point in freaking out after the fact about the surgery if it's done and over with and he got the intended result. Carpe Diem, imo. | |
