I think tall men typically date other taller women. I find it highly rare to see a tall woman dating a short man. 95% of all relationships, the man is taller than the woman. Its just a biological thing. Same reason why men like breasts, and wide hips in women. You can't argue with shit like that.

It's a general notion. But I only realized how much I've been missing out when I started seeing guys shorter than me in a different light. It's so much attractive when a guy isn't intimidated by the height difference.
I'm from southeast Asia and at 5'8, I'm relatively on the taller side
Tall women don't actually exist, they're just a myth created to give false hope to tall men of a life with less knee and back pain.
Not only that, but even average and short women prefer tall men.

Dating has never been fair to every single person, nor can it be, because it's based on personal preference. I should no more "have to" choose a short guy then "have to" choose a tall guy. I literally don't know anyone who doesn't prefer some specific quality or physical aspect in the same or opposite sex that they look for, but if I, a tall woman, say, I prefer to date a tall man, somehow that gets chalked up to a lot of short guys classifying me as being shallow but if said tall guy is nice, sweet, and a wonderful guy---I've found what I'm looking for and care not how other people choose to judge my preferences because its hypocritical because they don't just date any old person just because.
Prefering a guy who is taller or same height doesn't mean the women belittles him or shames him for his height.
It's not even about the guy himself much it's about how it makes us feel.
I feel more feminine and cute when I am shorter than the guy.
We are still bound by instinct at least a little bit and I prefer a man who can be protective and manly. So being tall gives the impression that this is the case.
BUT that doesn't mean a man can not show me that he is manly in other ways.
I am 5'5 and am at the moment dating a guy only slightly taller than me. If I wear heels I tower over him but I still like him very much and am attracted to him because he shows me with his attitude and his confidence that he is right for me.
So height is a factor, but it's not more.
Girls get judged on their looks all the time and it's genetic as well so what is your point?
Is that fair?In high school I quite fancied this guy who was around 4 inches shorter than me (I am 5'8). The guy I dated before my current boyfriend was my height and I wore chunky shoes around him so at times I was taller. I really don't mind it.
I'm 5'10 and height doesn't matter to me. In fact my current crushes are my height or slightly shorter... however, they're coupled up so I would never go there
I'm not tall but I think it's silly all the whining about women preferring tall guys. It's a preference, men have all kinds of preferences as well. In the end if a woman was to fall in love with a man who is shorter than what she prefers she'd still date him.
I'm tall. Height isn't important to me. So far I've only dated guys shorter than me. The guy I'm interested in now is taller than me. Personality is the most important thing.
I mean height isn’t a dealbreaker to me but being tall is definitely a plus since it makes me feel more feminine
What ever they like is fair. Tall women come from groups of people that tend to be tall such as in Nordic countries. This is another good example of why your own race is good for you. Removed from that environment they find themselves surrounded by men who are shorter than they are and have trouble finding a taller man.
I think most women just want someone around their height or slightly taller.
It's not what's fair it's called preference it is what they find appealing like a girl I knew would only date guys with blue eyes
Height doesn't matter to me.
I'm 5'9 ?/¿" And I'd marry a six foot woman if she fit my required but very broad standardsbeing a tall is not a problem, having a better sexual life is very important
I don't think so.
