I think people's opinions on other people are very superficial. Some people treat others like they are less than them just because they have something about them that is different whether it is race, height, weath, a job, etc. Height has no real effect on anyone. It is just the length of your body. It doesn't affect anything about a person. It doesn't determine overall attractiveness (unless you're one of those people that associates height with status and you care a lot about your social status), personality, fitness, interests, etc. The types of people that think a guy is inferior because of his height are very shallow people who only care about social status and validation from the rest of society. They think anyone that looks different from the Hollywood standard of beauty is beneath them. They are the same people that will claim a women is unattractive simply because she has small boobs or is taller than the norm. I don't give those assholes the time of day. I had a former 'friend' try to convince me to dump my girlfriend because she is 5'11. Apparently he thinks tall girls are too aggressive and masculine and that I could do better. I told him to f*** off and that height doesn't determine the kind of person she is. My girlfriend is so beautiful she could be a supermodel, she is shy, and very girly. I told him that he shouldn't be so stuck up his a** and assume someone's personality based on their looks. Long story short, we are not friends anymore. And if anyone ever trys to put her down because she is different they will have to deal with me. I wouldn't let those superficial people get to you and ruin a relationship with a guy that could possibly end up being the one. My brother was dumped by a girl because her friends made fun of her for dating him because she was slightly taller. Two years later, she contacted him online and told him that she was sorry about dumping him. She said he was the best boyfriend she ever had and dumping him was the biggest mistake of her life. She still loved him and want to get back together. But by then he was already engaged to a women who loved him for himself and rejected his ex. The point is, I don't think you should let other people control who you date and affect your perception of him.
You're 91 kilograms and wear size 48 shoes? How tall are you damn.
I'm only a few kilograms heavier. Lol are you above 6 ft in height?
I personally don't feel attracted to women who are taller than me but seeing you and your man being happy about your relationship I say screw the haters.
If the girl is into short guys as a group, she needs to find out why. For herself. No one else deserves the explanation, but she owes it to herself to know why she prefers what she prefers. Maybe she likes to feel in control, and shorter guys give her that. But if it is a particular short guy, then I would say it doesn't need to be subjected to overthinking and criticism. The main thing is to make sure that she is happy regardless of the guy's height😊
People who makes assumption like that in front of your face are just very insecure. Your dating choices don't reflect anything about your quality as a person. I have seen some of the most beautiful women date men that aren't socially considered attractive. Just look at Antonia Iacobescu and Alex Velea

I think you have a bigger problem with this than anybody around you. When you stop caring, when you aren't bothered, you'll likely be more accepted.
This is hard to read but I think I can still answer.
No the woman shouldn't feel ashamed or like she has to explain.
If people are asking stupid questions then answer them back with a stupid question. For example... if they say "couldn't you find a taller man?" You could reply "could you be a taller man?".
I think it shows tremendous confidence when a tall woman dates a shorter guy. It would never cross my mind that it’s because she can’t get a tall guy, or she feels sorry for her guy.
I low key wouldn't mind dating someone 1-2 inches taller just to see. It is a little odd but if she doesn't mind then that would be cool to see. Its all about our connection and I don't want that to be something that disqualifies something that could be great. Anyone can date a girl who is shorter, that's easy...
I think it's not a problem at all, why should you explain it. I personally date a girl who is taller than me. I don't feel less or like she overpowers me. I love her and that's that. You should have a problem with being taller if anything you should be proud of yourself for finding a man who doesn't have problems with his own ego
I'm a short guy, most girls I've dated have been taller than myself and I've seen/experienced this. I think people only ask because it's unusual and they're just curious. Maybe some people do for whatever reason have some kind of problem with it or find it funny or whatever, but they're obviously idiots and that's their problem.
No but it’s certainly odd, women have a natural desire to feel protected by their men. You cannot feel that way with a guy that’s almost a foot shorter. But there are odd balls in every population. There are women who are attracted to 60 yr old men too. Weirdos but you never know...
This is not something I ever thought about, and I am friends with a few guys who have taller girlfriends/wives.
At 6ft 2", I'm probably slightly taller than average, but I never viewed this as an advantage with women. Height doesn't matter, it's only one of a number of factors which contribute to attractiveness.
the first reply on to it, the problem not the real problem. as the younger generation says haters are gonna hate. and as Buddha says those that hate will never be free of hate.
Make no apologies. You are to be commended for following your own mind instead of bowing to convention. I have dated women considerably taller than me and loved them. I can assure you, it was not because I could not find any shorter ones.

Not at all! Some people are just too wrapped up in what they commonly see represented in the media, such as romance novels, movies and the like, they think that is what 'all' couples are supposed to look like.
There is nothing wrong with a taller woman going for a shorter man! The problem is with them, not you or your man!
Fuck... a bunch of
the " Them/They " Assholes. ... this is what I Hate, yes, ( he said Hate)
About Society; in one dimension They/Them hold the freaks and oddballs high on that proverbial pedestal and in other dimensions, scoff, laugh or talk about "US" !
Just look at
" Them/They " Assholes ... Smile a big Smile and just think "( Fuck You... Your just Jealous "
It's uncommon, but not strange. But you shouldn't feel ashamed or the need to explain anything with your personal life. It's nobody's business at all. You need to care less about what others think! It doesn't matter. Only matters what you think and that you're happy.
Of course she shouldn't. I dont see why it should be viewed as a de facto requirement thatthe guy be taller.
I've never actually dated a woman taller than me, but I would be happy to-do it and wouldn't think anything of it.
No, you don't have to explain your relationships. Love is inexplicable. You wouldn't have many friends if you went around pointing out things that don't appeal to you about other people's partners and asking them to justify their choices.
You should never have to explain yourself to anyone, period.
The girl shouldn't feel ashamed at all. There's nothing wrong with it as long as both parties are consensual in the relationship. People tend to find it easy to jest or poke fun at a relationship since it breaks the standard "gender roles" in a relationship. As a shorter guy myself I get this fairly often from more closed minded friends when I go on dates with women taller than me.
You don’t need to explain yourself. Live your best life.
When a super tall girl dates a short guy and displays it, it's self explanatory.
People won't wonder they will leave it be because they have eyes.
I know personally.
Why, you just like what you like F**k what everyone else thinks...
The only thing you need to find men who likes taller women, I don't think that it is easy or I'm wrong?
For example I like women with smaller boobs and don't understand what is the fuss about huge ones...
