I often wonder what tall guys get out of asking this question? They know they're the more desired males out of the two and yet still feel the need to post these questions.
Is it some sort of supremacy feeling among tall men perhaps? Most women will take a tall man over a short one. Offer a girl a guy who is 5'6 and a guy who is 6'2 and most women will automatically choose the taller of the two guys. Much in the same way a guy will pick a woman who isn't fat over one who is fat, it's just preference.

Everybody know the answer, it's alway tall or at least taller than the girl.
Like I said in a similar post to this, I prefer tall men, but I usually end up with the shorter guys. If he's taller than me by at least a few inches, I'm content. But some men and women do like short men. My best friend actually prefers short guys, which I always found peculiar. I guess I just don't see the appeal. To each their own though.
I am 5'4 so its not really hard to be taller than me. I want someone who is at least taller than me when I wear heels. I don't want to tower over him but I don't want to get a chair or wear heels every day to be able to reach his mouth. So my perfect height for a guy is probably between 5'9 and 6'1
I'm okay with either! I am very short myself, so most guys, even short ones, are generally taller than me, haha! I find myself attracted to guys equally both on the "taller" and "shorter" spectrums, but as long as they're at least taller than me, I'm in!
Anything above or around 5'11 is ok for me. I'm 5'6. I prefer taller men in general though so when a guy is in the 6'1 and up range I am about 50% interested already

Tall, or my same height, but honestly if I'd like a guy that's short, it wouldn't matter bc it's not something I'm going to cry over. I could careless if the guy I liked had some medical problem, or hearing or seeing problem. You can't really control who you like, so from my height I'd say tall or same height, but when it comes to falling for someone, then I'd say it doesn't matter.
Tall. Because i don't want to feel like I'm dating a child.
Tall guys since I'm 5'7 which really isn't that tall but most people seem to think it is.
I'd rather have to look up than down when I'm around him.
And of course I'm fine with guys my height.I am 5'6 and i want someone taller than me. Becaue someone taller than me is easy to hug :) But there is no ideal. If you like someone it becomes your ideal :)
I'm only 180 cm (5'11"). I already know women are NOT interested in so-called "inferior" men such as myself (and most men, technically). So yeah, they only want tall men. They see us as genetic defects and sh*t. Oh well!
i'm 5'3... hopefully not done growing yet though :P but i think its cute when there's a short girl trying to stand on tiptoe to kiss her taller man >.<
Well i'm 5'4 and i'm usually approached by tall guys but I used to date a guy who was 5'5 I opted for flats and he didn't mind when I wore heels he actually likes taller women.
I prefer guys who are taller then me or same height, but really height doesn't matter, if they're short and have an amazing personality then so be it :D
its natural selection, just like girls favour bigger penises they like taller men. its why humans have been getting taller and larger down there since we evolved from apes
I'm 5'1" so what is considered short for a man isn't an issue for me. I don't particularly like dating guys over 6'0" though, that's just too much of a difference for me.
Most girls say they prefer tall guys, but men overestimate how much that really means. My brother is short and 40 years, he still gets more women wanting him than me (I'm 6'4).
I prefer tall people however my boyfriend is short. When it comes to that point, the height does not matter.
I'm 5'11 and it's hard to find guys taller than me but it is preferred that he's not waaay smaller than me!
Tall!!! If they don't mind a petite girl like me. ^_^

I'm 6'1" and not terribly picky about height because of that, but a guy who is as tall as me is nice.

Tall guys. Dating someone who's the same as me height as me or shorter would be weird.
i hate it when women would date a tall guy in order to protect them. that's just TOO old-fashioned
i like basketball players o tall guys all the way haha
prefer tall but shorter than me doesn't bother me at all
What with being 5'11 its difficult to find a guy taller than me, but sometimes its nice to be made to feel short
