the real question is why girls have strict height requirements for guys but when guys want a girl with small waist and a big ass or big boobs or a fit figure get shamed and called shallow? because you can always get fit and eat healthy and even get plastic surgery to make your ass and boobs better. but you can't get taller. literally the one thing that guys literally can't change about themselves and it so happens to be the girls main requirement. sigh... maybe we deserve trump.
Actually you can get taller by a few inches, if you want to go through the hell of getting your legs broken and stretched over 12-24 months for $100k and find a doctor willing to do it. So simply saying it can't be done is no longer an excuse. Now the excuse is it's too expensive.
Look. Being tall is an attractive attribute to a man near always. Is it a requirement? Probably not. You don't have to be smart or funny or good looking either. But you can bet your rear that if a girl gets to decide whatever she wants for her partner, she will add some variants of smart, funny, good looking and Tall to it.
Then how important it actually is goes from girl to girl.

Hmm, I've had two major crushes in the past where the guys were shorter than me by a couple inches. I always felt a bit bad about wearing heels around them so I wouldn't. However, one of them once asked why I never wear heels, and it surprised me a lot. He said he thinks it's incredibly sexy, and it reminded me that in the end, height isn't so important in relationships, it's just a small part of it :) I'm 5'7 and yeah, I don't care.
Must be at least 6 inches taller than me so 5"11 and up only. I tried dating guys shorter than that and it bothered me so it is a requirement. Also, I like wearing heels sometimes and it would be awkward not to be at least the same height.

thats fine, I only date girls who have big boobs, big butt and curvy figure.
I would say that some do and some don't. Most guys I liked were at least 6', but my husband is 5'9. If i would have let a height requirement of 6' get in the way, I would have been missing out that is for sure!
For me height isn't a big deal. If a guy likes me and I find him attractive, that's all that matters. Heck, I'd think it's cute if a guy is shorter than me!
That's so very cool of you! You don't have issues about such a short man. This makes me think about one more thing, I am curious about, what if guy is skinny? What if guy has REALLY hairy body? what if small penis? Does any of these things bother you?
Not at all, love comes in millions of different shapes and sizes and if a man loves me the way I am, then hell I'd take him no matter what he looks like. Plus, if he has a small size down there I can find plenty of other enjoyable means of sex.
Not a problem. A lot of guys in my family are hairy, so he'd fit right in! (Though I shave out of habit, I'm not afraid of dating a man as hairy as my father ;D)
Oh that's sad that men in your family are overly hairy. Are they very very hairy everywhere, all over? Ad you won't want such a man to shave anything for you?
It's not as sad as you think, they remind me of fluffy bears. In fact, me and my sister call our father "Papa bear" as a nickname sometimes. And if he agrees to shave, then that's fine too. I'm very agreeable with my friends and lovers.
Men in your family have hairy shoulders, upper arms, back and all else things as well? If your man has them it won't bother you tiny bit? Wax him would make him more sexy?
Yes, men in my family have hair in lots of places on their bodies and my man having hair won't bother me a bit. Waxing him could also be painful, and cause injury as well as red marks along the skin. Think of it this way: if he wants to shave it, he can. If he doesn't, perfectly fine. ^^
He is 4'3" he has bear hairiness everywhere, would you be sexually attracted to this man? How about the private parts hairs, does he need to shave those for hygeiene? Waxing/shaving won't make him more sexy?
Being attractive sexually, yes. That might make me a weird girl, but that doesn't matter. And for hygienic purposes, yes he'll need to shave so he can be healthy. But a man can be sexy either way, so shaving or not he's still a sexy beast.
Yes for a girl thats 5'11 i can't go out with anybody below 5'7... its weird I remember i had talk to a dude that was 5"3 but it never really got no where except us just constanly having sex... so yes the lowest i go is 5'7
@notsoromantic yea i would i once talked to someone 5'3 lol i said that in my little paragraph... its just the friendship be a little funny and slightly weird
yeah I do. not into short guys. like not into fat guys. spirit shorter? yeah, he's gonna be friend zoned bc I won't find him attractive

I dont really mind girls saying they dont want to date a guy that is shorter than them if it makes them feel uncomfortable. Its only when they take it steps further and say a guy must be their height + high heels + 4 inches. I am 5'9 and I have heard girls who are 5'6 say they won't date a guy my height because high heels is an issue. I think thats pushing it and its ridicolous, there's no way a girl would feel small next to a guy thats 3 inches taller especially if the guy is buff. No way
well I'm 5'1 & my son father is only 5'9. now my son is 11 and you can already tell he's gonna be short. I feel bad for him & when I dated his date everyone was like, "u like that short ass dude?". now 11 years later I look at him & I'm like, ugh, no more short guys
maybe he got that from you, i dont see how everyone including yourself is pointing the finger at your guy when he's more normal height wise than you are.
bc my daughter dad is 6ft and she got long legs. I'm not that short for a girl, but he's obviously short for a guy. when we dated it was embarrassing bc normal size guys would tower over him. like I said, everyone was like, "why you dating that little dude? I'll knock your boyfriend out" and it was probably true.
Guys were threatening your boyfriend and you are praising them, i dont even know how to respond to that. And you might want to look up actual average height for men and women since you believe you're a normal height and your then boyfriend was a midget
he was, he was a punk. and yeah, they weren't threatening him, they were just saying, I'm a 6'2 grown man, he's a 5'9 punk, you're man can't beat me, I'll knock his little ass out. I feel safer with the 6ft to 6'3 men I date now. even my own mother laughs at him and his size. she tells my son all the time, "looks like your gonna be your dad's size" it's humiliating. never gonna date no short guy again. I can't even bare to look at the pics of us. seriously, like he has short man syndrome and a chip on his shoulder. he can be mad all day & have an attitude but not my problem. I seriously am not attracted to him & I feel bad for whatever girl dates him
and now not one person talks shit about any man I've dated since him. my 6ft & over bfs just look at a guy & the guy backs down. it's nice. guy tries to talk to me, boyfriend walks over, puts his arm around me, guy sees this, guy leaves, even tells my boyfriend, "I didn't kno, no disrespect" with baby dad he'd walk over, guy would say, "oh that's your man.. hahaha.. dude please, I'll talk to whoever I want. do something.. what you gonna do? nothing. girl, call me when you lose that dude". I'm not dealing with that anymore.. like it much better this way
Instinctually women want to feel safe, a bigger person than themselves adds to the sense of security. Not that it completely is determined by a man's size whether or not she feels safe, it plays a large role.
nice, unfortunately doesn't work for me. Im only 5'7 and since Im dark skinned and have dreads everyone thinks Im some thug. Dont get me wrong Im from L. A. I can survive but Im really nice and teach my friends to drop the tough guy act and have fun people carry guns these days were being a big guy won't matter.
Honestly, height doesn't matter that much. Granted, it's nice when they hug you that they can cover you, like a protective kind of thing. For me personally, he'd have to be around my height or taller, but I don't care if he's a couple inches shorter.
Do girls actually have height requirements? Some gals do. No different than some guys have age, weight, and beauty requirements ir must be cute/pretty etc.
Height matters for some gals be it a status thing, protection emotion, or attraction.
Pretty sad... all guys seem to use this as an excuse to say: I'm lonely and mad at the world, but I'd never, for the life of me, approach any girl... in case she rejects me.

actually I have had girls who are same height as me tell me I am too short and that they only date tall guys. Therefore I only approach girls who are at most 5'6, (I am 5'9), so I dont have to deal with this crap
Im a bit submissive and it makes me feel weird when the guy Im with is a lot shorter than me. Im 170 cm, so I'd want guys who are at least 165 and preferably a bit taller than me. That's doable, right?
I dont have a preference. I love extreme height differences but I really dont care how tall or short someone is. If I want to date them its cause I want to date them, not their height.
We all have preference, but when it comes down to it, I couldn't care less how he looks. I care about his character, his integrity, and how he treats me.
Yeaaa I don't usually care but I'm 5'7" so if I'm dating you and you're below the bra we might have a bit of a problem 😅 I wouldn't reject a short guy though.
Some girls prefer short or average guys. Majority of us just want someone who is taller than us. I'm five feet, so as long as you are taller than five feet, you passed the "height requirement" lol.

how tall r u?
I'm 5'4 so it's not like I needed a very tall guy anyway really.
Again with the height whining... girls who. have strict requirements about height are not worth your time. Now don't make. me repeat that again.
For me height isn't a big deal. If a guy likes me and I find him attractive, that's all that matters. Heck, I'd think it's cute if a guy is shorter than me!
How tall are you and how shorter he can be from you and it would still be cute?
I'm 5 ft 2 and even if he's 4 ft 3 he'd still be cute! ^^
Damn you won't have any issues with one foot short man? Hell would a 4'3 tall man be a manly man anyway?
Are you sure you won't mind such a small man?
I'm positive! He'd be the most gorgeous shortie to walk my way, plus think of all the Australian kisses he could give me.. 😏😏
That's so very cool of you! You don't have issues about such a short man. This makes me think about one more thing, I am curious about, what if guy is skinny? What if guy has REALLY hairy body? what if small penis?

Plus, if he has a small size down there I can find plenty of other enjoyable means of sex.
If he has REALLY REALLY hairy body all over?
Not a problem. A lot of guys in my family are hairy, so he'd fit right in! (Though I shave out of habit, I'm not afraid of dating a man as hairy as my father ;D)
Oh that's sad that men in your family are overly hairy. Are they very very hairy everywhere, all over?

So you would need him to shave down there for hygeiene purposes?
A furry groin in unhygienic but furry body elsewhere is hygeienic?
Not a requirement but I'm 5'10 so I'd ideally like to date someone around 5'8"-6'2/3"
Is 5’7 ok?
Yes for a girl thats 5'11 i can't go out with anybody below 5'7... its weird
I remember i had talk to a dude that was 5"3 but it never really got no where except us just constanly having sex... so yes the lowest i go is 5'7
5'7" is also too shorty for you, it won't look odd to you?
@notsoromantic i will kinda its the shortest i go no more than that only cause i got friends thats 5'7 and to me its not to short
So you won't be friends with a man who is shorter than 5'7?
@notsoromantic yea i would i once talked to someone 5'3 lol i said that in my little paragraph... its just the friendship be a little funny and slightly weird
yeah I do. not into short guys. like not into fat guys. spirit
shorter? yeah, he's gonna be friend zoned bc I won't find him attractive

you're 5'1, dont blame the guy lol
lmao. my 4 year old is already half his size
maybe he got that from you, i dont see how everyone including yourself is pointing the finger at your guy when he's more normal height wise than you are.

of the guy was short but had big muscles would that make you feel safe?
If he could defend himself better than I could I would say yes. Women like to feel protected and safe, and by that I mean most
So I don't speak for all but most
Honestly, height doesn't matter that much. Granted, it's nice when they hug you that they can cover you, like a protective kind of thing. For me personally, he'd have to be around my height or taller, but I don't care if he's a couple inches shorter.

Ideal height: 6'3"
My BF: 5'9"
We all have preference, but when it comes down to it, I couldn't care less how he looks. I care about his character, his integrity, and how he treats me.
Your height?
5'5"
Yeaaa I don't usually care but I'm 5'7" so if I'm dating you and you're below the bra we might have a bit of a problem 😅 I wouldn't reject a short guy though.
Some girls prefer short or average guys. Majority of us just want someone who is taller than us. I'm five feet, so as long as you are taller than five feet, you passed the "height requirement" lol.
passed it by 9 inches, high five to myself lol
A lot of them want guys that are 6'2"-7'0".
