Hi guys, I am gonna move to Oslo, Norway in a few months. I am not "short", but with just 1,70 centimeters I am not definitely tall, let's say just borderline average.

Here in Spain I've become increasingly size conscious during the past years , since it's very common for the younger generations to be at least 1,80, or even 1,90. And not only men, a lot of young girls are my same size or taller.


I am 36 years old.

I'd say around 20-30 per cent of women my same generation are same size or taller than me. But this percentage raises dramatitally for younger women.....I'd say around 40-50 per cent of young women tend to be at least as tall as me.

And that kinda removes sexual attraction....let's face it, men like shorter women, and women like taller men. (in general, of course)


So keep in mind I am talking about Spain,a Southern Europe country where the average size is shorter than Northern Europe. I fear I'll look like a dworf up there.


So I wonder how are gonna be my chances at finding romance? I mean, working and learning Norwegian are gonna be top priorities, but I wanna have some "quality time" and do some "interactions" since I am single and want to enjoy life a little bit before I turn 40.


So I'd like to hear to opinión of people who live in Scandinavia (Norway is basically the same as Sweden and Denmark).

Are Scandinavian women really into taller men? Do I have a chance at all? What's the percentage of women between 20 and 40 who are shorter than 1,70 centimeters?

Besides size, what other traits Scandinavian woman value? (besides the obvious like good looks, money, emotional maturity, etc)

Any advice will be welcome.

Tak skal du ha!

I guess it could be rounded to 5.6 , maybe that's the size wearing shoes.
