The majority of the women that answered said it either didn’t matter as much as men signify height as the end all be all, or that he be as tall or just taller than her. I believe for the majority of women, height can be a dealbreaker in certain situations, but I’d say it’s a preference overall. It’s just how I might prefer blondes but if I’m strolling one day in the park and happen to meet and get on great with a brunette, the preference is almost nonexistent. It’s easy to have a preference when answering a questionnaire online but the complexity and nuance of interacting person to person, makes a lot of these preferences have a slight effect or sometimes a nonexistent one. These are random women that have commented fairly reasonable answers to the question on height and all of either said it doesn’t matter as much as men claim it matters or it’s a preference with reasonable specifics. Now, height does matter, but what I’m seeing is men, probably insecure men, who stress its importance to the stratosphere and beyond, and identify with their height as their sole identifier and no matter how many accomplishments or desirable traits they may have, their insecurity on their height bogs them down.
This difference from person to person. I'm sure there are women who think of height as a preference, whereas some see it as a dealbreaker.
To me it's a preference. Most people in society have this thing that the man should always be taller. Realistically that may not always be the way. I'm not very tall myself I'm only 5ft6. Most people I've dated have always been taller then me apart from my fiance he's only 5ft 2. It doesn't bother me. To me that's a physical attraction which some people base they're dating preferences on. Who cares on the height if they treat you with love and respect and have all the mental contributions you admire. Height is just a number.
I’d like to say it’s a preference but I know I wouldn’t be at all interested in a guy if he was shorter than me, so I guess it’s a deal breaker if he isn’t at least 5’4.

Like most guys, it's just a preference for me.
So, a lot of my friends call me weird for this, but I don't care about height at all. He can be shorter, taller, or the same height.
I mean, look at Corey Feldman and Courtney Anne! Corey is 5'5 and Courtney is 5'10, and they're obviously happy. Why would you reject a sweet, charming and interesting guy because of his height?
Especially after talking to my Japanese guy friends, I kinda' figured it was the other way around.(Guys really don't wanna date girls that are tall or their heights, for example. I got told that like 5'5 was the limit, lol.)
But I suppose that could be a cultural difference, or even just a personal one.
For me, a 5'4 girl, I'm open to anyone as long as their personality is good!
Preference. My SO barely breaks 5ft, but I like em tall.
It can be both. I prefer north of 5’10 or so but it just a preference until you get down into the 5’6 range at which point I’m not really gonna be physically attracted
It's a preference. I like the thought of dating someone taller than me, but if I like him height doesn't matter. And that being said, there are many guys shorter than me, so that wouldn't so fair😅
I thibk lots of girls say it like its a deal breaker but its rlly just a preference like if u like someone ur not actually gonna care about their height
Na. I dated a guy who was 5'2. Doesn't really matter to me.
be my height or taller. Deal breaker. I'm 5'4. It ain't hard to be tall as me. Rare to be shorter as a male.
Preference, I'd date someone shorter than me. It's unlikely, though, given that I'm 5'2!
I'm attracted to shorter girls, but I'd have a relationship with a taller girl, sure! It's all about her personality and all the other attributes after all! :)
Preference. Height doesn’t matter as long as they treat me right
no its not as long as the person is 6'0 or higher not to high because im a tall person
Call me strange, but I prefer a guy my height or a little shorter
Its a dealer breaker for me. He has to be at least 5'6
Not a deal breaker for me being 4'6, but I'd look silly with a guy above 5ft6
I don’t care about height honestly what matter is how he treats me.
I wouldn't date someone shorter than 5'6
(guys who are below 5'6 are rare anyway) for obvious reasons but other than that I have no problem
It would be a deal breaker. As long as he’s taller than me then we’re good.
Since im a guy i dont care really as long as they are taller than 4 feet
Why do you respond so aggressive to the women's opinions?
