Guys, would you date a woman taller/bigger/stronger than you?

[Pinay_ako]

Ladies, would you date someone smaller/shorter/frail side than you? When it comes to physical aspect. Think Captain America before the experiment

[Pod1289]

My partner is the same hight as me, her body frame is also the same as mine, her hands are larger than mine, and I'm not a small man by any means (5"11). I'm not intimidated by tall women, but I guess I like to feel as though I'm stronger physically, and can lift heavy things that she can't, perhaps if she were stronger than me I would feel as though my masculinity had been undermined and although I'm aware of it, I think somewhere deep down it might negatively affect my confidence as a man.

[JayN26]

Looks, strength height etc are all superficial. The true connection comes from the inside and lasting relationships are build on more than just looks and size. Look and connect with the things which the other person can control. Not what they cannot. This way you will see their true personality and caring side.

[TenderFantasy]

I dated a guy that was about an inch shorter than me. I was a bit embarrassed but that really wasn't the deciding factor in breaking up with him. He was a player/cheater.

[Armourdillo]

maybe he cheated because you were insecure about his height.
Girls cheat if you forget to text "good morning"

[TenderFantasy]

@Armourdillo Lol

[Just_someone23]

I'm tall I'm 5'11. I think small guys are cute.

[Mamamialetmego]

But you wouldn't fuck them 😂

[Just_someone23]

@Mamamialetmego is that all men think about.

[Mamamialetmego]

No but we all know women don't tend to fuck shorter guys.

[AircraftCarrier]

@Mamamialetmego you have a point

[TenderFantasy]

That's a "bit" of a generalization is it not? ;-) When I'm in bed with a shorter guy, I don't think I'm in bed with an oompa loompa!

[Logorithim]

Taller, definitely. As to bigger or stronger, maybe. I don't find female bodybuilders attractive and if she is too overweight, that would be a dealbreaker as well. But one that is into for example, Crossfit, sure. I've also seen some powerlifters that I found really attractive.

[Cynicaldreamer]

Shorter? Sure!

But frail or weaker? Hell no. If I can break a guy in half like a toothpick or he's weaker than I am, it won't work out with me.
I rather date a guy that has some physical endurance and stamina and can keep up with me.

[Hurdleez-Swampede]

What if the man you're with became weaker than you tomorrow? You leave him due to disease or a mystery?

[Cocacolaaddict]

@Hurdleez-Swampede yeah basically

[Cocacolaaddict]

Girls don't truly love guys just the benefits they get from them and when they stop receiving all their feels disappear too

[SteveSmith1985]

Sure. Those things don't matter. If I like someone... I like them. 😉

[ChurchOfIron]

Maybe. Recently saw the strongest woman in the world pound for pound, Stefi Cohen. She weighs 123 pounds and squats 500 pounds. And weighs less than me. It's kind of ridiculous-strong. She's strong as fuck. I only squat 300 or so. I should squat more, but I've had some knee issues and several hamstring injuries. The ironic part is I bench 270. So my chest and arms are about as strong as my legs. Which is kinda depressing. I'm getting side tracked, haha. Point is, Stefi is 1.65x stronger than me, lower body. And she weighs 20 pounds less than me. She's a beast.

She's got relatively large arms, too. It's not the most attractive thing in the world, but we'd share a love of fitness, so maybe. She seems kinda cool, chill, confident. Doesn't have the best looking face, though. But in a certain light she looks attractive to me. At least with clothes on. At the same time, she looks quite masculine with her arms and legs, which is a pretty big turn off. *processing... ... ...*

I dunno. It would definitely be out of the ordinary for me. And it definitely would not be ideal. But possible, I think. I'd def want to *get* stronger than her at some point. And I'd know that I should have a higher potential, as a male, and she's trained a lot longer than me, so I should be able to catch up to her, even though I'm old now.

To actually answer the question, I could deal with stronger. Bigger, I don't think I could. Taller, possible.

[Mollynotgemma]

I have dated a shorter guy than me but he will always be my first love! Love overrides everything!
I agree that I would prefer a man taller than me because that’s natural! So initial attraction would be to the taller guy! But you can only be with someone taller because he makes you feel safe for a certain amount of time before love prevails and the short guy is not short anymore he is the love of your life and looks are instantly irrelevant! Look and Jamie cullum and Sophie dhal! Height is an initial attraction and it takes a certain type of guy to be able to be shorter than their woman! And that is attractive.
The term small man syndrome is a fact and that’s because by being short they know they have had to build on their personality as without that they are not going to get noticed!
Why date a boring skyscraper when we all want to end up with a bungalow!

[Mollynotgemma]

Also if height is an issue. You don’t like the guy enough!

[jameswoodell201]

If you don't mind me asking what happened to you two?

[Compodulator]

The question, of course, is "how bigger"?
Like, I wouldn't date a young female Arnold Schwarzenegger.
(With all respect to Mr Arnold, try as I might, I can't spell his surname right)
BBW and SBBW is also a big nono. They're not "beautiful", they're obese, and obesity is a sign of poor self care.
But if she's proportionally the same as an average woman, except twice the size somehow?
There would be some logistical issues, obviously, but that aside, I don't think I'd have too much trouble. At least initially.

[BeMuse]

No I’m not into She-Hulk. I’m 6’3” with a large muscular frame. That’s not really what does it for me in the opposite sex. I do like when they have willpower and will try to do things themselves though. There are plenty of things a lot of women can do if they just try, but a lot of them will try and find a cop out as to why they can’t do it. I hate that weak spirited play the little girl crap. I like to see them try their hardest and when they do it, it feels good to know they can and will always try their best. If they come up short I’m happy to help.

[jgokgotit]

Taller and stronger would not matter to me. As for bigger, it depends. If she is bigger than me then she probably would not look feminine enough for me. Funny thing is, in both of my serious relationships, the first girl was taller than me and roughly equal in strength. The 2nd girl I dated was shorter than me but about twice as strong, even though I was in the military. I wonder if her being Russian had anything to do with it? Most of the Russian women I've met who are my size or not much smaller than me have all been stronger than me.

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

Taller= perhaps, but I'd almost always prefer same height or shorter. If a girl can rest her head on my shoulders at standing height, then she fits me like two puzzle pieces locking together :D

Stronger= Well, strength has more to do with neurology, and muscle fibre recruitment, etc. Girls can be "dainty" but, with training, could nonetheless be very strong for their weight class. That said, I'm not into stocky/ muscular women, although "gym-fit" body type can be sexy as long as muscles aren't bulging and big. It always comes back to "slim and toned" for me.

[CubsterShura]

I'm already so small myself I'm afraid a guy shorter than me isn't done with his puberty yet and I'm certainly not into pubescent boys.

But I generally don't mind shorter guys. Even if I was tall, I wouldn't. I came across some amazingly charming guys who were really short and I didn't think their height mattered. They would be just as amazing if I was taller.

[Armourdillo]

imagine calling an 19 year old calling a 25 year old guy who's short pubescent. That's just based on your feelings too, not even facts.

If it's one thing i learned about women, their feelings are facts to them.

[CubsterShura]

@Armourdillo read English c'mon 🤦 I never said a guy shorter than me must be pubescent, so what was your point?

[Armourdillo]

"I'm already so small myself I'm afraid a guy shorter than me isn't done with his puberty yet and I'm certainly not into pubescent boys."

[CubsterShura]

@Armourdillo it means that guys of my height are almost non-existent and nowhere did I imply that every single guy my height must be a child, lol. Go take another IELTS course.

[TheSpartan]

Taller? Yes, no problem.

Stronger? It’s extremely unlikely that’ll I ever meet a woman as strong as me in real life outside of an elite, super heavyweight female powerlifting national or international meet. My guess is maybe 1 in 100,000 woman would come anywhere close. So, the question just isn’t practical. If I did meet a woman as strong or stronger than me, then I’d assume she’s a heavy steroid abuser as well as elite strength athlete, and I wouldn’t date someone who sacrifices their own health to such a regard.

I probably wouldn’t date a woman bigger than me (180 lbs, 5’8) because she’d almost certainly be fat. The only way this might not be the case is if she was very tall (5’10+) and a dedicated athlete. In which case, no, I wouldn’t have a problem with it.

[CarpetDenim]

I would not be interested in someone who was smaller/shorter/more frail than me, but there’s a slim chance a good personality could still win me over, though I find it unlikely that a successful relationship would result from this type of situation due to the lack of physical/sexual attraction I would have to him.

[Harmseygrace]

I'm smaller than my boyfriend in height and weight, but only by a few centimetres (an inch) and a few kgs (16lbs) and I'm stronger. I can wrestle him and pick him but I don't really care. Its kinda funny. 😂

[Mamamialetmego]

You are so young sweety when you grow up you will prefer tall strong guys.

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Haha nah. I'll always want him. Don't fucking talk about him like that.

[Mamamialetmego]

Just remember me when you become older. You will leave his ass for big dude

[Cocacolaaddict]

@Mamamialetmego m8 iv seen you all over you seem really insecure you seem to be offended by girls who care about personality instead of superficial standards like appearance and get intimidated by a woman you can't tower over you need to man up abit when you grow up you will prefer strong women who would rather stick by your side because if who you are not what you are and will no longer fear strong women

[Mamamialetmego]

@Cocacolaaddict Im not insecure im pretty big and handsome dude i'm just talking about reality

[Cocacolaaddict]

@Mamamialetmego lol sure you are

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Honey thats not reality. I wouldn't leave my boyfriend for anyone. @Cococolaaddict is pretty right. You need to man up and stop being a insecure little prick. Being a man isn't being tall and strong.

[Mamamialetmego]

We'll see baby 😀

[Mamamialetmego]

I'm so insecure and pussy hahaha No women wants me 😂

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Don't fucking call me baby mate. Did you not just see I have a boyfriend?

[Mamamialetmego]

Baby means you are young. Think about me like your brother 😄

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Yeah thats still weird mate. And no I'm not thinking about you that way, especially saying that about my boyfriend. You're off your rocker.

[Mamamialetmego]

Haha whatever. I dont care.

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Yeah sure. Just so you know, you're not actually that good looking.

[Mamamialetmego]

Haha i might be for you. Who cares? :D

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Yeah you're not for me mate

[Mamamialetmego]

Lol i wasn't interested with you from the beginning.

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego Haha okay. 😂

[Cocacolaaddict]

You 2 still going at it?

[Harmseygrace]

@Cocacolaaddict Yeah he's kinda amusing

[Cocacolaaddict]

Lol :D

[Mamamialetmego]

Lol i tought you didn't like me

[Harmseygrace]

@Mamamialetmego I don't. Your arrogance is what's funny.

[Mamamialetmego]

Well arrogance is my super power

[x86armx64]

Well I'm 6ft 6" tall so if there's a woman out there that tall, where are you? Back ache I get from lowering myself down to the height if short people 😂 I could do taller, but men should really be stronger, not into the whole female body building thing, without sounding sexist, it just doesn't look right.

[Skelmir_Nathair]

Physical appearance means fuck all to me.
If you have a beautiful mind and heart. Then I'll find you beautiful.
If you're ugly in heart and mind. It doesn't matter if you're the hottest woman on earth.
I have absolutely no interest in you...

So, yeah really dont matter what her size is... Lol

[Grobmate]

One of the things I've found surprisingly important to women and not so much us Men, (I'm recently dating again), is that they want to be shorter than the man. In their words, if they can't wear high heels and still be shorter than him, then they aren't as willing to date. E. g. if a guy is 175cm tall and she is 173cm, she is unlikely to want to date him.

While bizarre, it is what it is I guess. Maybe the women here can speak on the subject. Great question by the way.

[cth96190]

One of the women I dated was taller than me, a lot taller.
She was/is so much taller that the top of my 5’8” head is level with the top of her shoulders.
She also has a muscular athletic build, due to a lot of gym work and martial arts, which was how we met.
She is stunning, in a Victoria’s Secret sort of way.
She is also a barrister, who does mainly criminal work.
I wanted her DNA in my babies, but she had other priorities at the time.
We are still close friends.

[lilyisabelll]

I’ve only had three boyfriends but 2 out of three I have been stronger than, I’m short af but I’m a gymnast so I have a lot of muscle, my current boyfriend is 6’1, I’m 5’1 and I carry him around all the time, he finds it funny, he can barely hold me for 2 minutes 😂I don’t mind though

[Mamamialetmego]

Pff disgusting

[AmorgansHorse]

All fine with me... I will say though physiologically speaking it's almost impossible for a woman to be stronger. I can confirm that this is in fact a fact as I've only been in the gym 6 months and can outlift a lot of athletic women who have been working out for years. Also you can research online but it doesn't matter because I doubt that was meant by the question.

[weirdoweirdo]

Taller? No. Stronger? Unless she is taking steroids it'd be literally impossible for a womans body to be as strong as mine especially if we are the same age (Im a powerlifter) Bigger? I mean they could physically have thiccer thighs and such but not over weight, thank you. These "standards" are why I'll never find someone I'll be able to call mine.
