I am average height for a guy.
Women LOVE guys 6'0" typically.
50% of online profiles list height requirements from women seeking guys minimum, 5'9", 5'10", 6'0" even. Just today I saw a woman 5'2" seeking guys 6'0" or more. Really?! 10" differential or more? What is the point there....
I do not have 'options', and i'm way taller than 5'0".
Granted, other factors may be involved here. But my observations OLD reflect that a good 50% of women require at LEAST 5'9" height to be considered for dating. And typically, if a woman is taller, 80% of the time, the guy MUS be taller.
Online is brutal, for women and for men. Forget online, if you're short.
Women SAY they prefer tall guys. And a few women really are hard-core about that. But many more women are more flexible than even they, themselves, think. Women who prefer tall guys will go for a short guy with panache. People say all kinds of things about their preferences (blue eyes, etc.), but in the end they often fall for someone who doesn't fit the profile they've outlined. Life and love are unpredictable. Play the odds. You could win.
Plenty of shorter women are with or like average sized guys.... not all women want tall men, this is self evident by merely making observations about the world you live in.
Height Doesn't Matter That Much True Fact I Know Firsthand
I'm 5'5" and I MARRIED a 5'9" blonde. I ended up divorcing her for some valid reasons, but my main point is, from my experience, height really doesn't matter.
Looks don't matter much either since I'm not considered to be attractive, I believe.
It's a lot about chemistry and being yourself, as long as yourself isn't a psychotic nutball. Then again, perhaps even those types get girls too, but probably not the type of girls I'm interested in.
What a groundbreaking concept on this forum: short men have trouble dating! I don't think I've ever read this or heard this before. I can't believe this didn't come up until now.
You should emphasize with how traumatizing it must be (srs). Heightism is extremely prevalent and more tolerated than most discrimination it seems, I really feel for short guys.
On top of that they get NO sympathy from women. In fact, ridicule more often than not.
Oh really?? I was bullied throughout my whole childhood and youth for being too tall. That marked me FOR LIFE, even though I carry myself with pride now. I don't remember one short guy who was bullied as a kid.
I wished I was fat so I would have known what to do. Nothing you can do with you are super tall, can't even go hiding.
Yes shorter guys might have a hard time dating when they are grown up, but at least I would think they had a nice childhood.
My brothers were both tall: 6'4" and 6'5". Both preferred tall girls, but, the tallest wouldn't date a girl shorter than 5'7". Both married tall women.
