I would bang a short guy, but to keep him around for a long period...no sir.
Making blanket statements like these only make you appear like the fool you just made yourself here, there are aggressive people who are short, tall, fat, thin, blue eyed, black eyed, etc etc, see my point???

Why?!? Why do women wear high heels? Why do women wear elaborate makeup? Why does women fashion garner so much money? Why do women get boob jobs?

People are driven to be found desirable, accepted and respected. Nothing new or of much to say other than people have settled on certain attributes that are considered more desirable than others. Cosmetic changes to appearance are at least reversible whereas medical changes can be dangerous to undertake. Understand first if the gain will out way the risks.

I find it all amusing.

I'm 5'10" and I couldn't date a woman who was 5'8" because I too would throw a fit if she wore heels -- I wouldn't want to put a woman through that. It's best just to stick to women who are 5'6" or shorter.
I hope for the sake of any women you date this is a joke. If not, the insecurity issues here boggle the mind.

The shallow mindset and superficiality of any woman who would refuse to date or marry a "short" man would be dead in the water if the 5'6 man in question was Tom Cruise, or had Cruise's money.

I'm 5'9 and that's pretty tall for a woman. Husband is 5'10 and I tower over him in heels. Neither of us gave a second thought to it. I don't feel "protected" just because some man is 6'3. I have never been attracted to tall men in my life and in fact, prefer shorter men. I would have had no trouble marrying a short man. Compatibilitty, character, shared interests and sense of humor is a helluva lot more important than whether he's 6'5.

OMGosh headhunter, calm yourself, buddy. Okay, MOST short guys. GEESH!

The above statement could be true, but I don't date tall, fat, thin, blue eyed, black eyed people. So, no I don't see your point.

I can provide you 100s of links corroborating this fact.

Also, your dad and mom both are 5'8", and you are 5'3", really? That's very very interesting
Oh no! No I was being really sarcastic about the 5'10" being short because I always was interested in taller guys and 5'10" really IS tall, particularly if you're 5'3"!. I definitely do not mean that that height is even remotely close to whatever people would consider to be "short." Sorry!

Yeah, I'm the family "stump" as my Mom would call me. My cousins are all 6', only two of the other girls are close to my height, and they're 5'6". I'm wee.
