Meh , I don't think it really matters as much as the ladies will have you believe.
OH SURE , they'll say they love it but then again... I think as long as he's no shorter than 5'9 ish , height pretty much goes out the window there.
The laws of diminishing returns eh?

There comes a point where additional "effort" or quantity of a value just ceases to produce any more additional benefit.
I think a person's facial structures (if we are going to be superficial about it) has a far higher potential for returns than height and stature.

There's no point of which a person becomes "too good looking" but there comes a point when there's "optimal height".
Both of which you can't change so I guess when it comes to superficial things. 70% determined at birth.

Probably better than it was before. If girls had an option to pick between same height or under 6 ft or 6 ft or taller they would usually go with 6 ft or taller. It's a no brainer. Sometimes a lot goes into play in what makes a man attractive to them. But to be on the safe side you can't go wrong with being taller that's for sure.
I agree with @Prettygurl12, that a man who isn't very handsome in his face gets an overall higher rate number if he is tall. Personally, since I am tall myself (5'10) I like men who are taller than me, preferably with more than a couple of inches but I wouldn't rule someone out if he is a great guy just because he isn't as tall as I would prefer.
It makes him more attractive in my opinion. I'm considered tall for an Asian, but im basically average height for a girl in Canada.. but Asian guys are so short and the fact that im taller and my build is bigger than theirs just makes them not attractive. So if i come across a guy that is taller than me, i just am so much more attracted to them.
For me its very attractive cse I'm tall my dad is way taller and with a tall guy there's just somethin about the way they carry themselves. a shorter guy can also be sexy but sometimes they don't want you wearing ur high heels and they lack confidence no matter what ur height is insecurity will diminish anyones attractivness
You know... being tall and having a good body only goes so far. I like a cute face over all those things, and a great sense of humor is even better (and more rare) - men, ad least the ones I've met, don't share my sense of humor, or don't have any to begin with...

Ryan SeacrestFor me once your are 5 inches taller i like it a lot. Really tall guys just atttract me more on a physical and sexual level. Thats my honest opinion. But I just can't date someone my height I would not be attracted as much unless he had an amazing personality
There's a lot of guys that are really tall but overall just not that appealing. So while an attractive guy gets major ups for being tall too... it doesn't help his overall attractiveness if he isn't. I don't know if that makes sense or not... to me overall features, build an personality is what it comes down to. However if I was comparing the exact same attractive guy to a shorter duplicate of himself, I'd pick the tall one so I can still wear heels ;D
As an ugly tall man I voted A. I have pretty good looking male friends (no homo) but they're short and they get no attention from women. I take advantage of my height with no regrets and see women as stupid and superficial, even though I prefer short women to tall ones! lmao
If I guy has a nice build and is tall I find it extremely attractive
It's a minor attractive bonus. A fit, strong body and handsome face is a lot more appealing to me when it comes to physical attraction. Height... I've never really got the obsession. Maybe it's because I'm 5'3", so most guys are at least a bit taller than me anyway. I've dated guys from exactly my height to over 6 feet; it's not really a big deal to me.
I find taller guys more attractive for sure !! but that doesn't mean i haven't crushed on short ones, or i'd choose one guy over the other sole based on that. but ideally tall is my go to :) (current best guy friend is 6'7'')
I like tall guys, bot I absolutely love tall guys that are gentlemen 😍😍😍 they're like handsome gentle giants I find it adorable
Though I am attracted to tall guys...
Being tall isn't going to make a guy attractive if you're attractive then you're attractive and if you're not then you're not.
A guys height isn't going to change that.I'm 5' 8'. That makes him 4 inches taller than me. So 4x more atractive to me. There you go, your own 'for sure' attraction scale.
I'm just kidding. What I'm saying is: It's different from woman to woman.For me I am a tall girl 5 11 my boyfriends were taller except for one who was the same height as me. Husband is 6 1. In my experience I think I feel more feminine if my guy is taller because I'm no small thing myself lol
My guy is 5'4"(1.6meters) I would be sad if he became any taller since I'm only 5ft. I rather not have to get a foot stool just so I can kiss him. XD

Honestly to me it only boosts his attractiveness a little bit. Sometimes not at all. I'm already 6'1" myself.
If a guy is tall, how much more attractive does that make him?
D. No attraction bonus
For me a guy doesn't get extra points for being tall rather he gets a lot of points deducted for being short.It doesn't really matter to me. I have a crush on a guy who is slightly taller than me I'm under 5'3" and he's about 5'4" I'm totally crazy about him. It just depends on the individual guy
This question makes me feel good about myself xD I'm 6'3 and hate the fact that i bump into like everything there is to bump into. But yay I guess it's more of a plus than I thought xD
Tall fit guys are so hot wjen they're fit AND tall, the face and personality instantly become half as important as before. It's like it blinds me for everything else around!
take President Lincoln as a perfect example. he was already extremely smoking hot, and then he was tall. That's like 5 extra points. he was so hot some guy ended him out of jealously.
if he's unattractive, he's unattractive at any height.
If he's attractive, I'd say it makes him a bit more attractive to be tall.
