You must live someplace strange. Since you posted this originally in the Northern Virginia subforum - I can tell you there is no "minimum acceptable height" for men there, and certainly not 5'10"! There's a lot of men here under 5'10", you should find plenty of them. Now, I'm 5' 6 1/2" and shorter than average, but it doesn't bother me, and I'm not worried about meeting some arbitrary "minimum acceptable height". Maybe you are referring to women and what men they will date - and there are plenty that want tall men - but there are plenty who don't mind someone shorter than 5'10" too.

This thread remains one of the more bizarre threads I've ever seen - especially posted on Northern VA forum where it started out!

That is a very sage piece of advice, and that's how I feel about women who are interested in dating only "alpha males".

We still need a tall black alpha male to do the narrating part

Problem is, the vast majority of women want alpha males, and only "settle" for betas later when alphas lose interest in them. If I eliminate these women, I eliminate 80% of women. THat's like a woman refusing a date men less than 6'1.

80%?! Maybe you live in a very shallow region And why are you interested in the masses anyway? Concentrate on class, the remaining 20%
After all there are happy couples where the woman is even taller than the man

dear manlet,



the first step to improvement is understanding, and you understand that you engage in egregious beta behavior.

you don't have to be some testosterone-addled freak, or taller than 6'0, to pull yourself within the range of normal.

and for god's sake stop calling yourself a manlet. lol. or keep on, I think it is hilarious.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to say that you make me appreciate the solid male role models I had in life.

It's like a bad car crash, you want to look away but can't.
