I'm a short guy and was wondering how much this puts people off when looking at profiles. I send a lot of messages and most are just deleted without reply.

I don't think its your height that puts people off. Maybe try some different photos ?

Personally, I don't meet short guys.....but I wouldn't meet tall guys with photos like that either! Don't put all the blame on your height!

Thanks for the replies.

What sort of pics are generally better then ?

Your height is likely a problem for many.

For me, your dick pic and tattoo are just not enough for me to want to know more. Would you buy a pair of pants from Amazon without seeing a picture of them first? A body shot (torso), a face pic if you can, and a nice bum pic usually go over well. Keep a dick pic in private for those who like them. Send a face pic with your message.

And your profile should say more about you, what you're looking for, and what you have to offer.

Welcome and good luck.

"Thanks for the replies.

Here's a clue - this is a very visual site so you need a good variety of photos to keep the potential sexual partner interested in your profile rather than mine. Try a variety of angles, shots, styles, subject matter and think on this: men are visual, women are cerebral....

Consider this: it might not be your height (something you have no control over) that is making people delete messages without reply.

So if he's not getting the hint, let's try "we DON'T want a close up of ya bollocks fella! It's NOT nice!"

Being short is a pain in the ass, to be honest - I'm labelling any guy under 5'9" short.

A lot of people will prang on about how you just have to let your confidence shine through in order to make people to ignore it... but ultimately, physical characteristics are of great importance in this community, and confidence will only go so far

I'm not proud to admit that to me, height matters a great deal... I've yet to meet a man that's shorter than me that I'm sexually attracted to...

That said, it has a lot to do with me being self conscious about my size/height.

Don't worry, youre not the only one that feels the cold indifference of being shorter haha we frequently lose out on meets after others find out im not 7ft 12. Just remember this isnt a dating site, its all about physical attraction. You could be the nicest, modt genuine guy in the world, but if theres a ripped, 6fter stood next to you, i cant see too many girls on here having much of a problem with him being boring!

Chin up lad! (It'll make you seem taller )

As my profile states, face and height are 2 of the 11 things i look for in an initial contact. Sad you went straight to this kind of response without having a cursory read of my profile.

Don't take this the wrong way because it's not a dig - just a different perspective.

For me, the only woman who has the "full package" is my wife. Therefore, it seems pointless to duplicate that taste in swinging. For me, swinging is about variety and having fun with people have something a little different that makes me curious.

Not saying there's anything wrong with what you said, just different perspective.

Don't worry mate, I'm quite short too and find that what a lot of women on here are looking for is quite a tall order, but that's all dwarfed by problems caused by my balding, ginger hair.

I just stand tall, let it all go way over my head, look them squarely in the waist, and tell them not to be so high and mighty.

Then I headbutt them in the shin

Good luck

Hence why I say different perspectives. If people can't stand the idea of a shorter guy then fine that's their privilege.

I'm just sharing my personal experience which is that pre-marriage I generally slept with girls I was dating and never slept with / dated with a girl who would describe herself as "curvy". However I have had post-marriage swinging experiences with such women and found them fantastic. That is all.

I'm 5ft 6 and never had a problem with being short.

Tallest women I've been with were 5'11" and 6ft - plenty of other women taller than me, plenty of women shorter than me - as long as I keep my toenails clipped it's all good

Some find it an issue, but some people find every-fucking-thing an issue and spend their whole lives worrying about what everyone else thinks.

Unfortunately a lot of girls like the typical tall, dark and handsome guy in an ideal world and seeing as the have a huge choice they can be more picky.

Perhaps think of a different site where you can date and get a woman to know you more. Being quite short I have always had way better luck with people I know than people who look at all your potential flaws in pics and on a profile.

Good luck and I'm sure you will find someone.
