I once approached a girl who was about 1-2 inches taller than me(I'm 5'7). When she said that she only dates guys 6'0 or taller, I responded to her that I had a friend who was 5'12, she said nope they've got to be 6'0 or taller. I just smiled and walked away.
i'm with you there. i always find it asinine when women have such requirements, especially if it's coming from women who are under 5'4. the height difference between the two would be laughable
That1Guy www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/height-chart.shtml look i'm not saying 5'10 is short, but 6'2 is not rare. Scroll down and look at denmark, germany, netherlands, norway ect. the average there is 5'11-6'1. so 1-2 inches bigger isn't rare at all you would know if you visited these places tall dudes above 6'4 are very commen
www.worldometers.info/world-population/population-by-country/ Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, and Norway combined make up a whooping 1.5% of the world population, and none of their average population is over 6'0. So if the tallest countriest populations, that only make up 1.5% of the worlds population, can only at their best average 5'11-6'0, I'd say 6'2 is pretty rare. Anyways the reason many of these countries have such high height averages is simply because they have such small populations. And I see a lot of false data above. According to the Netherlands Government the average is 5'11.5, and they are the tallest country in the world. www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2008/02/average-dutchman-just-as-tall-as-in-2001
What are you on about? Go and get a fucking life, why are you getting involved with me and my lifestyle, you know or understand nothing about me. Where has all this bullshit about being average come from, sort it out.
+Brielle Underwood That's just pride and so-called tradition forced down people's mindset by the hollywood media, I don't feel inferior dating a 6'ft. girl with me being 5'6".
+Brielle Underwood There's always 6"3 guys out there like me haha. I don't care too much about a girls height, sometimes I prefer shorter girls because I like the contrast. But if it were a girl I was going to marry or have kids with, I'd probably pick a taller girl. I wouldn't want short kids.
You know Im 170cm high and I noticed that actually taller girls like 176 or even 180 are interested on me. But girls my height or even shorter they dont even look at me. The want guys like 190. Hahaha :)
+145neo I think it's the contrast between the two heights that turns them on. I'm 6"3 and I like short girls, not too short though. I think 5ft would be a bit too short for me, maybe like 5"3 is good.
I'm on the short side at 5'6" and I LOVE tall women. I'd definitely date a 6'5" female if she was into me and not stuck on the height difference. Hell, she can wear heels too. I'm totally all for dating a shorter woman too. Height really doesn't matter much to me.
Im 5'10 and my height had always been an issue for guys. If i liked them, I didn't care that they were shorter than me, I would've dated them anyway but they always turned ME down. It really sucks that this is what its like. You can be tall and absolutely beautiful but in my experience, my height has always been my enemy for that reason. It really hurts my feelings. Tall women can't help being tall. We didn't ask for that, our parents are at fault and there's nothing we can do about it. Same thing for shorter than average men. My bf is 5'7 and it didn't really bother me, but so many people always have something to say whether it be by looks or actual words about our height differences. A friend of mine had a party last weekend and me and my bf were dancing and she said, "Ha ha ha, she's so much taller than him" and shook her head. I pretended I didn't notice, but it gets to you after a while. It's mean and not right to be that way, but society brain washes everyone to believe the standards they set for everyone.
+Ashley Williams At the end of the day, it's how you feel about your boyfriend. It's true about what they say about LOVE..."Love is blind." Someone will always be critical of something whether it's a difference in height, race, disability or age. Those who judge are truly the ones who are insecure, and they have no reasons to be in your life. The person who made the comment at the party is NOT your friend because a true friend does not judge you! I've dated a girl who was of a different race once, and I got criticized just like you did about your boyfriend's shorter stature. Would it make a difference if your boyfriend was 6'2" but confined in wheelchair making him 5'2"? Love is about what you and your partner feel about each other, not what others feel about you and your partner. I stayed away from people who disapproved of my interracial relationship, and I stuck with the ones that supported my relationship. Never give in to society's ideals especially when they don't coincide with your own! Good luck.
Well men have this thing called pride. Every man has it. I'm 5'5" but was able to convince myself that I'm still awesome. I told myself that Wolverine and Vegeta are short and still awesome. So they helped me a bit.
I think every woman's ideal height for a man in 6'4". They have this feeling that any man below 6 feet tall is weak and can't protect them. Height has nothing to do with whether you can fight or not. I know a lot of men who are tall and are weak and men who are short who can fight.
***** I know 5'10" isn't short, it's average height, I'm 5'10" myself. I was just trying to say that being really tall doesn't make you a tough guy who can fight. Women seem to think that tall men will "protect them" and make them "feel safe" which doesn't really make sense. Mike Tyson was average height and he's one of the toughest guys on the planet, he used to beat the shit out of super tall guys. Me and you know that 5'10" isn't short but a lot of women would say that it is short. Lots of women think any man under 6 foot is short.
+SUB4YOU The butthurtness of these people here are insane Fact: a normal 6'4 man has an advantage against a normal 5'10 man plus women being more attracted to a tall dude is psychological and not commen sence. and another fact for you, if a women jugdes you for your short 5'10 ass she's the bitch
Height never matters in relationships to me. I've dated shorter and taller guys. Personality, intelligence, charm, and protection/ loyalty comes first with me.
You is what you is and you ain't what you ain't. Be happy with who you are regardless of your body type. If somebody can't deal with your height, weight, hair color, etc. it's their loss. Someone so shallow isn't worthy of your friendship. Move on. There are plenty of awesome people around!
I love being short ( 5'5 ) cuz everyone sees me as weak and I just love their surprised faces when I kick their ass ;) I know how to fight and stand up for myself better than many other tall men because I always had to prove myself more because of my height, so yea don't worry girls a short guy can totally protect you :p
+AGbaby235....no woman like U, punish men...get ya mind right...that may b hard 4 u..but try. see, it hasn't punished me at all..makes it easy 2 find , and avoid people like u. i DON'T have 2 put up with u..and u don't have 2 b viewed as a circus mngr. standing next 2 a disgusting freak. everybody loses...oh i mean wins..god forbid getting 2 know someone #superficial is the new down 2 earth...way 2 go progression! ?!!!!this is 4 women..not agbaby235...
Anthony Thompson Bro chill the fuck out....First off I'm a guy and secondly you're just jumping to conclusions and blowing shit out of proportions. Settle down and take a deep breath, get some water to drink and relax. My comment consisted of 4 simple words and all it stated was,"But it does punish men." How does that in anyway shape or form sound like a woman to you? I'm a guy who's below average height and seen short by society's standards of today. I'm on your side. I feel your pain and I'm in the same boat as you. So, rather than assuming me being superficial or in your case "me" being a "woman" is not a very mature thing to say my friend. My height still bothers me from time to time but not that much anymore I suppose. Yes, I used to be pretty much like you.....feeling insecure, hopeless and useless, depressed, felt undesirable. I've learned to not care and emphasize its importance cause if I do then I know it'll consume me and make feel like complete shit. My advice to you is embrace your height no matter how tall or short you are and try to stay away from shallow women. If you get rejected then just move on to the next one. There are plenty of fished in the sea and I'm sure you'll eventually find someone who'll like you for you. Peace.
+AGbaby235. change your name..the baby..i'm old school.. it's a little feminine .that being said...u r right. my apologies. not 4 what i said. wrong target. sometimes i DON'T take prisoners. i come down hard on those who make children...SOME, women.
I love being tall i'm 5,7 not too tall practicaly average. I don't really care if the guy is a little bit shorter or my height. It is not a criteria for me at all. My friends thinks I'm weird because it doesn't matter to me. My girls friends are like OOHHH I want the tallest guy
I'm 5'7 too and this is exactly what I'd say to the tee! (friends thing included) Like it's weird cause you're not super short and you're not super tall. The only issue is when I go out and wear heels lol.
you're a woman, it doesn't really matter what height you are, short height only affects men in society, not women, nobody gives a shit if a woman is short, guys will still date her
All the men in my family are 185cm +, I am also pretty tall (172cm). For a relationship I feel height is really important but there are other factors affecting whether the relationship is right for me. People's expectations are different, and there is always someone out there for everyone :)
I have a thing for short men plus I'm short myself. And I wouldn't care to date any man over 6'0 because that would feel like a giant to me since I'm short.
I'm 5'9, love to wear heels which pretty much makes me 6ft. Dated shorter guys, guys my height, and guys around 6ft. My dream was to date someone super tall and I met this guy, 6'7, and I found it to be exhausting to date him. He was like a literal celebrity. Every where we went people were gawking, snapping photos, telling the same lame height jokes, chasing him down, asking does he play basketball. And then you can't just go anywhere and just be---someone that tall attracts people just by the nature of being tall. People would just follow us...literally follow us around pointing, making comments. I'd like to say it doesn't matter, but height does matter to some degree, but you just have to be with someone who literally doesn't care and sees you for who you are. I've had plenty of guys see me in my heels and feel like, can't date that because I'm going to look like her son or they feel inferior. So its a double edged sword.
***** Depends where you`re from. I`m 6`7 too. Here in Northern Europe I get the occasional "you`re tall"-comment, but no one ever stares. The average for young men here is 6 feet, so wherever you go, you see 6`2 - 6`4-guys. They`re not that much shorter than me. 6`5-6`7 is more uncommon, but I`m far from alone. I did however visit Thailand once, so from that experience I certainly understand how you and your boyfriend felt. You`d think I`d just stepped out of an UFO from the way they looked at me :)
Bård H I'm glad you know the feeling. I liked the guy but it was a bit much for me and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that I could never really date a celebrity because I hate hate hate the attention. Being 5'9, I've always been considered taller than average, but it really isn't until I'm in a pair of heels which push me to 6, 6'1, 6'2, that I really get eyeballs on me. I like it a little bit, the attention, but I also know I have the power to take those heels off and turn it off and go back to almost blending unlike being 6'7.
***** I think 5`9 is above average for women everywhere (?). Still, you are, of course, not unusually tall. I don`t know where you live, but I guess in terms of "sticking out"; 6`7 here is more or less like 6`4 in the States. So in the eyes of society, assuming you`re American, your boyfriend was taller than me.
Bård H Oh gosh, out of curiosity I looked up the average height of men and women in Thailand, which is 5'5, and 5'1 respectively. I can't imagine not sticking out there! U.S. (yes, I'm American) is 5'10 for men and 5'5 for women. I've been tall my whole life...always above average height of my friends so I guess I'm used to it. It's kind of funny---having been 'the tall one' my whole life, when I do meet with women who are naturally taller than me, its like the clash of the alphas. Like, how dare you step into my arena, I'm the tall one, lol. It's funny how sometimes we think of those things.
***** Hehe, Thailand was really something, that`s for sure :) Norwegian men and women (here) average 6 feet and 5`7, which is tall, but my family is even taller. Me, my dad, and my brother are 6`7, 6`5, and 6`4. My mom and sisters aren`t that much above average but still somewhat so at 5`8, 5`10, and 5`7. Still, it isn`t that uncommon, so we don`t stick out in an uncomfortable way.
I'm 5'11 and have been dating a guy an inch shorter than me for 3 months and honestly, people need to get over themselves. Dating a girl who is taller than you does not make you inferior. If you think that, then you have an ego problem. I feel very protected by my boyfriend. Protectiveness is more in personality than in height.
Im 5'8 and i am dating a guy who is shorter then me. I don't care if im taller or he's shorter as long as were happy i dont care ❤ yeah it may bother/annoy me sometimes but i still love him for him💕 So i dont care as long as we both like each other😌👏
I'm about to be 30 and I'm still single. There's really only one reason why; I'm short. I'm 5'6. So basically the epitome of a manlet. Physically speaking with little exception, most girls prefer tall guys. Tall women want tall men. Short women want tall men. For a very long time I was in self-denial that maybe it 's just a cliche or all I have to do is compensate by being more "confident"(whatever the hell that means) or maybe I just have to make more money. Short guys, it's time to know the ugly truth. IT DOESN'T MATTER! You're short which means you are considered physically unworthy for them. It is the last socially acceptable form of discrimination and not just in the dating world. Frankly it's a losing battle. Every other body type is more acceptable to the opposite sex. When you're short and you approach a girl,you're going to lose that battle almost every time. Girls wont care about your weight,your money,your age heck even your looks or even your personality. They only care about height and that's all. It truly is the most shallow form of sexual selection there is. I'm pretty much content at this point with living alone for the rest of my life. My height will always be an impediment for me when it comes to relationships. There's no point just pretending that this issue is "only in my head" anymore. It's a sad reality but it is what it is.
+Ga Heahe Technically I'm not a miscer because miscers go to the gym to "prove" their point. At 5'6, it's kinda silly to "work out" because looking jacked up while short looks really stupid. So I'm not a miscer.
Guess all you can do is lay down and rot then. Seen plenty 5'6's with stunning girls. Stop making excuses. I will admit its a handicap, but hey man, could be worst.
+Richard Schiffman It's scientific fact shorter people on average live longer. And look at Bruce Lee, he was 5'7' but chicks still dig him. Anybody who rejects ya because of your height alone are no good anyway. You need to find someone who you are good friends with, because let's face it, without friendship there is NO foundation for love. You can be super tall, but if you don't have that well...eventually it's all just gonna fall apart. And hey, looks fade anyway so you wanna know what keeps a couple strong even into old age? Oh, that's right FRIENDSHIP. Find somebody who you share lots in common with and who you connect with. She will fall for ya no matter what your height. I'm living proof of that. And if you're curious I am a girl, 5'2' 1/2
We live in a society where people value looks over a person personality or good character and heart. If a woman gets in a relationship with a man base on his height and looks, what happen when the man lost his legs or looks? Can the woman be with the man after he lost his legs and looks? What inside is what matters. Looks and height can only go so far. A good heart and character have much more value in life.
im a short guy myself and one thing i observed is alot of the times taller girls will go for the shorter guys because most guys dont want a girl thats taller than them im 5'6 and ive been with girls as tall as 6ft . i think it just comes down to confidence if your a short guy with confidence and you and exude that .most women will over look the fact that they are taller than you because they like you .What women want and what they say they want are two totally different things if your confident she'll let alot of things slide
I'm 5'10 and wish i were a bit shorter, i would love to be cute and small, be able to dress up all sassy, cute i think not being able to wear high heels a lot sucks, sometimes when iam out shopping i'll notice i'm pretty much taller then most the guys in the store, which is very sad since i live in a collage area and most the cute guys i see are my height or shorter, doesn't help that one of my guy friends is abnormally short. I do love being tall most the time but there are sometimes i feel a really awkward. Usually when i do decide to dress up i feel awkward since iam a little taller then my friends, and to top it off i have terrible social anxiety which sucks becuz i feel like i don't even goddamn blend in w everyone. If u have ever see basket ball women i thought i was tall they dwarfed me, when i was in a shop a entire team came in and damn they were tall. Just hope i don't scare all the men away ;-;
I prefer any guy who loves me, any guy who sees me for me regardless of height. That's ideal for me😊 But I think I also prefer guys shorter than me and taller then me. Having a guy as tall as me doesn't really float my boat, but again, if he loves me I don't mind😁
I'm a tall girl, and its kind of funny to hear some guys admit that they do feel insecure. Mainly because as girls most of us think that guys are really confident in nature.
I'm 5ft and my ideal height for a guy isn't 6'4 u know how crazy that is I once dated s guy who was 6'1 and that was scary as hell I thought that he would just step on me when ever him and I were around each other
+Fula Bela so what if she looks taller ! It's obvious now that female are the ones who are insecure about their height. Fuck the heels . Look at Tom Cruise and his Girlfriend. Most models have shorter boyfriends. I'm no perverts all men love tit sucking. But my favorite is pussy eating emm. stroking my tongue inside the pussy and sucking the clit my favorite
Height isn't that big of a deal for me, as long as the guy isn't shorter than I am (which isn't asking much since I'm 4'10). Honestly I do prefer taller guys, but to me 5'8 is tall. That said, I've crushed on several short guys (below 5'4) before. Short guys are adorable. :3
Now I don't feel so bad at my 5'3 and a half Height at 17. Idk if I'll grow taller or stay this height but This makes me feel less insecure/ worry/ or fear my height less ^^
So at 20 years old going onto 21 in March, I should just face the facts of dying alone. After watching about 5 or 6 of these videos most girls wanted taller guys. I stand at 5'4 so I'm waving my white flag.
I think it's a bad phenomenon that short guy date short girl while tall guy date tall girl, the short couple end up having kids that are too short, and tall couple end up having kids that are tall, and feel good about themselves. While some short men may end up define themselves as short, and feel inferior, some probably had killed themselves, who knows?
Height shouldn't really define success and happiness though. It's like saying your skin tone defines success and happiness. Naturally, good looking people go with good looking people so it is only fair if short people go with short people and vice versa. There is nothing wrong with being short or tall
I find it interesting and very telling how the answers to this question are very different when the asker is average to tall, but when a short person is asking the answers are much more height neutral. I think when the asker is short people subconsciously try to show them it doesn't matter, but when they're not worried about shit talking short men they can be more honest.
I'm 6ft 8in tall older guy & younger ladies flirt with me more than older women, especially short ones. Being tall back in my twenties was no big deal 4 ladies. Times have changed .,it's a generation thing.. A tall lady told me that she was in a ladies group, and said they were crazy about Joe Millionaire being 6ft 4in tall & said hey your 6ft 8in tall & I said yeah right.....
Why do people discriminate on looks, but not with height? I always heard women liked tall men? But ofcourse this is only the few of a few people. I accept anyone I like because they are created that way for a reason.
Holy... I'm pretty much 5'0, and that girl is crazy. Sure, tall guys are cute, but every guy is tall to my height. Personally, I don't like having a guy who could give me a nose bleed by picking me up. 5'7-5'10 is ideal height.
im 24 and only 5'1. i try to see the advantage that the majority if guys ive dated are always taller than me and will be most likely tal,ler than me. i dont mind if i was to date someone my height. i dont have a preference...only when it comes to age i like older dudes
Personally I like to date taller guys. I think it's because I have short younger siblings so I kind of associate hight with age so if someone's shorter I think of them as younger than me and if they're taller I think of them as my age or older and I tend to date older guys.
I'm 16 and 5,9.5/176cm barefoot ,it's a weird height because on some occasions I feel tall and on others I feel short.One thing I've noticed is that I'm taller than most women that I walk by in the street or the mall ect,can't say the same for men.Im usually 5,10 with normal shoes but when I wear air maxes I can get to the 5,11 range.My goal is to be barefoot 6 by the time I'm done which I don't think should be too hard since it's only 2.5 inches away.Btw my dad is 5,11 and my mom is 5,8ish.Do you guys reckon I could reach 6-6,1 so that I could finally escape the awkward stage of being 5,9-5,10
Bro, both your parents are tall You should have been atleast 6'3" by now. I'm guessing either that you don't eat enough red meat and milk, or don't sleep enough or that you are stressed
Ur damn correct I'm 5'9" & i cn feel short & tall on the same occasions! It's really a wierd height or more like a perfect average height which is why this is happening... But sad that I won't grow anymore and yeah when i wear my boots I'm at 5'11" or 180 cm. Gives me 2" boost.
I am 5.6 male. I pray everyday that I get a lil taller hopefully reach like 5.9 and that's it, and I've just turned 25, so praying is all I can do. I am not comfortable with this height not coz I don't get girls or so. Honestly, in this world, short people have very less advantage on many things. I mean for example a 5.6 guy on a Yamaha R1 would be a disaster, look wise as well as comfort wise. That's just one example. There are so many things, the list goes on. So I feel 5.9 -5.10 is ideal men's height for this world that we live in.
My 5'6" friend has been with one girl his whole life and she was 5'0", he just graduated college this month. I feel so bad for him in a way because he will ONLY date girls 5'2" and shorter. Me being 6'0" and the last girl I messed around with was 5'9".... I just can't help but feel bad for him and his 10% dating pool compared to my 95% dating pool. Probably explains why I've been with 1200% the amount of women he's been with, and I'm a year younger. Yeah, I'm boasting about being tall, whoops. #Feelsgoodman
Im 5'7.5 and the only thing that would make me uncomfortable being with a taller girl is that SHE would feel uncomfortable being with a guy shorter than her lool. I wouldn't feel inferior to her or anything. So its like im uncomfortable because she is kind of things.
I dont choose, i normally dont have a choice. About 95% of the girls i meet are taller than me . I am barely 5'3. But i am attracted to short and tall girls. But if a girl shows interest in me, i know shes at least kinda cool.
As a 6'4" guy i feel disgusted by how i am being played with by girls and how they are disrespecting shorter men. I don't know what u guys are going threw but i feel you and would deff give you a inch or 2 of my height if i where able to
The only thing i hate about my genetics is my height (5 foot 4 inches 3/4) the rest is okay, i got a king-sized body frame and i'm pretty strong for my age.
I'm 5' 9" and I have no problem with shorter guys. I feel pretty comfortable with my height and usually only notice a guy's height if he is majorly shorter/taller than me. I feel like guys care more about it than women do, although I have surprisingly been hit on by a lot of shorter guys. I'm gonna tell you straight up, if a guy is shorter than me and he has the confidence to make a move, his attractiveness just doubled. Honestly, when I see hot short guys, I typically just figure they wont be interested in me.
Being short alone doesn't make you undateable. If you're short and undateable, it's not because you're short because you see shorter guys with girlfriends all the time. You probably have some other flaws in addition to your short stature which makes you suck with women.
Is this true? I can't say, because it's very rare (maybe once every 2-3 weeks) that I ever run into a guy who's shorter than me. When I do, he's usually single too. More often than not, I make a point of meeting these guys, especially if they're well dressed, just so I can find out where they get their clothes.
This man likes taller women. And having had a few taller girlfriends back in the day, I can say I didn't feel inferior at all. It's like I tell people "women are all the same height when they are lying down."
The girl that 5 ft. and wants a 6"4 ft guy?? What do the tall 5'8 girls and above get if all of the 6ft guys and above are taken by the shorter girls? XD C'mon now, lets share and try to have our own range of height. Hahaha I definitely want a tall guy. It's already exhausting to look down on everyone lol. I just feel that guys that are shorter than me are ya know younger and more immature. I'd like a really tall guy that's much more mature. I also find that guys that are eye level with me still feel inferior too because they think that i can challenge them back which is probably not wrong xD
+Rachel Cornett You don't always get what you want. No one is perfect. If you go around and judging people for stupid things like "height." You will miss out on a lot of opportunities to be with someone you love.
+Rachel Cornett Guys that are shorter than you are younger and more immature? Lol, what if they're the same exact age as you and just, well, short? You're probably not trying to judge maturity level based on height, but it came out that way xD
I have read a LOT of statistics about height and everything. I'm around 6'4, max 6'5 with shoes, I live in Germany and I have to disagree with a lot of the stats because I see sooo many people that are taller than me, like 6'6-6'9 Can't even imagine how its looking in the Netherlands...
Short women, like 4'11 - 5'2 often catch what i like to call 'little people syndrome,' where they all wanna be with someone who is 6'+ to compensate for their height. Funny when a girl who is barely 5 feet tells a guy who is 5'10 that they are too short for them. But a girl that's 5'8 thinks that is perfectly fine. It makes no sense.
Don't feel insecure if you are short. I am only 5'5 but decided if I can't get taller I can get thicker. If you feel insecure, start working out. Short people get yoked WAY faster than someone tall.
