"Because most women want a tall guy. " I'd say some not 'most'... I understand personal sexual preferences but what I'm asking is could other women look past a guys height? (if they indeed do have a issue with it) | |||

"I mean. Yes and no. Ideally my man would be 6’4” cos he’d make me feel extremely small next to him and I find height gap a total turn on and I feel more feminine cos of it In reality, no (to a degree) If he’s shorter than me then it’s definitely gonna be a no , Sowwy " And just to clarify, I’m 5’6” if I stand tall against the wall but in reality I lose an inch or so cos of the day I rest my hips losing a bit of height x | |||

"Depends on what his height is to be honest. I'm massive all over, not just tall, and if a guy is more than a couple inches shorter than me it makes me feel even more huge than I do anyway " see me and Mr are exactly the same height but when I have heels on I'm obviously taller than him when we go out... it certainly doesn't make me any less attracted to him like I say I understand people's personal preferences or if it might affect there confidence, i just wondering if there are any other girls that for them height maybe isn't a issue | |||

"It is for some, not for others. It's not important to me, to a point. If someone was under 5' or over 6'8 I would be a bit dubious as to how things would line up, but for most average sort of people it's not an issue for me." I met a 6 foot 7 guy off here and trying to do doggy was a joke hahaha | |||

No just taller in my normal shoes BUT as said , preference wise, 6’2” and above would be perfection cos I’d still be small even in heels (and super tiny without) Like having my top of my head reach his shoulder or just above, just wow *fawns* | |||

"This can be an issue more so in the digital age of dating, sex & relationships. Where on a website such as this one, a woman may set a numerical parameter like height to 6 feet and over only... because their preference is for taller men - and that is perfectly fine, of course. However, plenty of guys who are 5'9, 5'10 and 5'11 will simply be screened out of her interest automatically when trying to chat / meet online. Now, take those same men, suited and booted and out at a bar or a club, etc... how many women who set those limits online can honestly say those couple or so inches are actually an issue (if noticable at all)? Food for thought... p.s. speaking as a 5'11 dude has NOTHING to do with this musing... honest! " In person in bar would probably make those inches more noticeable, especially if the woman is out wearing heels | |||

"In person in bar would probably make those inches more noticeable, especially if the woman is out wearing heels" I doubt it. When wearing my nice shoes or Timberlands, I'm easily 6' thanks to the extra inch. Stand me next to someone who is actually 6' - now 6'1 thanks to their footwear - at a bar and I'm pretty confident most, if not all, women would barely register the difference, heels or no heels. It's only if you had a load of different heighted guys lined up, or like a 5'9 standing next to a 6'2 would you easily be able to tell from across the street / room, etc. "Wish that was true! On dating sites my criteria is set at 6ft+ but still the majority of likes and messages are from guys way under that." Still could be true, though. I never said it would stop incoming likes and messages, only that there could be plenty of perfectly good matches among them that you will automatically screen out / dismiss from your interest. "For majority of people this is a preference rather than a hard line, but women have a massive choice of men on here so they can afford to be picky and filter down the amount of messages they get." Oh for sure. I'm merely musing on the arbitrary nature of having to set these hard lines or boundaries for numerical things - not just height but also age and weight, etc, too - in this digital age... whereas before the internet when people would just meet in person, those boudaries are a lot more flexible, because in a bar or a club it's a lot harder to tell a couple of inches or a couple of pounds or a couple of years apart. | |||

"No because if was 1 guy who was 5 9 I would be able to roughly tell his height without there needing to be another guy there who is taller" Right... but my overall point is that no matter where the woman's particular chosen cut-off point is on an online site, a couple of inches either side of that out in the real world is far less arbitrary and therefore focused on / picked up on. You could be walking down the street and see a bloke over the other side walking along who you think is drop dead gorgeous and gives you instant fanny flutters who's, say, 5'10 or 5'11... yet if you didn't see them IRL but on an online profile where you state no men under 6' or 6'1 etc, they wouldn't get past the screening / filter. Pretty simple. | |||

"Most women don't answer this question honestly. It's in women's evolution to seek out men talling and stronger than them, so that they can feel protected. So it's biologically wired into most women to go for taller guys. But again most women try to deny their nature." There's a mixture of responses so safe to say that the women on this thread have answered honestly | |||
