I think you have to be tall and handsome not just tall. So I don't it's just the height that attracts a woman she has to like your face too.

No it doesn't because I don't like dating short women who are 5'0 and that doesn't make me a douchebag

I've always been drawn to tall men , but it's *not* like height is the sole attribute that matters to me.
I've seen/met plenty of people of many heights with unpleasant exteriors or unappetizing personalities.
I like the way I fit in an embrace with tall men-not the skinny ones, either-but that's topic for another thread.
I'm not quite 5'7" and feel most comfortable, physically, with a guy at (or near) 6 feet.

And I feel more comfortable with someone who is 5'7 to 5"11

That's mostly because people won't just blur out shallow preferences in front of just anyone, they will say it with people they feel that they trust.

A lot of women will have requirements that are going to be super shallow, and a lot of men will not want to date women who do not have a certain figure, most people won't voice there shallow requirements in front of strangers or newer friends.

Americans are really into height , I'm nearly 6 ft 4 and women never give me a second look , I'm not good looking though

This thread is so annoying.

Tall is attractive. It's not the end all. Tall guys still strike out. All the time. You still need the whole package. Being tall alone will not get you laid.

I'm 5'7" and I clean up. No issues whatsoever.

It's like a gift really. You should be thanking your parents all the time for being tall. lol
I hate being ( too ) tall , sitting in cars hurts my bad back ( tall means more likely to have back trouble ) , buying clothes , towering over people in a freakish manner , I hate it

Well, I'm probably one of the few women here who prefers shorter men?
But then again, I'm only 5'2" and don't like wearing high heels!

I like to walk next to a guy & not feel like he towers over me, so prefer someone under 5'10".
For years I was in a longterm relationship with a man who was 5'8"... and we fit together perfectly!
