I'm few inches shorter than that but I just can't see myself placing those kinds of restrictions and boundaries on who I would or wouldn't date. You're really limiting yourself when you start to set standards like that and you never know who you could be mentally 'dissing' based on nothing more than a physical attribute; perhaps a potential soulmate.
I agree with this; would you be as liberal about a person's weight?
This is not specifically aimed at you, but at the ladies in general.........
See? And we women keep being accused of being materialistic when we just have good taste!

I was pretty sure it wasn't the height alone...
I don't know if it works the same way for everybody, but if I've gotten to know somebody well and like him (say in a situation like a forum) and find out what he looks like later, his looks won't matter as much, while if I were to browse pictures, I might discard him. So, I guess I'm not as shallow as I project it here.

i am not sure the preference for the type of men i described is good taste it might be. it does weed out some negative physical stuff as well as some negative behavior. i think overall that appearance for men and women is primary quality they seek in a mate. i think all too often both sexes let appearance sway them too much.

do you really think psychologists are insecure nuts?
I'm 5'6". My "minimum" would be 5'10". But my max would be 6'3"-6'4".
I like to wear heels and still be shorter than my man.. yet I had a crush on a guy once that was 6'8" and that was waaaaaaaaaaay too tall. Hurt my neck.
And I like my men taller than me so I have a sense of protection when out with him. Just one of my prefrences. I'm sure we all have 'em.
