I never thought of that...wow. Let's just assume he's average below the belt.

Ah yes, the Alton giant. Grew up in a town not too far from where I grew up.

Anyway, I doubt it. Women like taller men, yes. But they don't like freakishly tall men. Unless she's 6'4" herself, I'd say 6'4" is the unofficial cutoff. After that, it's all pituitary disorders and acromegaly. Not attractive at all. Plus, who would dare get pregnant by that man?

I dated a guy who was 6ft 9 and his parts weren't of proportional size to his height. Not a big deal, but I'm just saying short guy doesn't equal small down there and vice versa. And even if he was proportional, there is a limit to what a woman can accomodate so the rest would just kind of hang out there so to speak...

Most average women would say 6in is average, 7in is perfect and 8+ is uncomfortable.

Sure, a lot of women like tall men, but I can't think of a single woman that would like a guy who would be dead by the age of 22, not to mention all of the health problems he had.

Women like taller men, not tall men.

Add their height to the height of the heel on their high heels and add 1 inch to be safe. That's seldom more than 6'2".

I'm 5'2" so most men are taller than me or at least the same. I do find a man over six feet to be a plus (no pun intended), but I will admit I laugh when I see couples that are very different in height. I have an aunt who is also about 5'2" and very skinny she married a man who is 6'4" and pretty burly and big-boned (not fat). They look hilarious walking down the street together.
