As a man do you care about height?

- I do care, in the sense that it is a factor that I consider. However, I have a pretty broad range of heights I'd be willing to date. I'm 5'6, and I want my partner to be shorter than me, or same height at the very most. There isn't really a minimum height, but I wouldn't date someone who had a condition like dwarfism that affected other areas of her appearance.
To give a ballpark range, I'd say 4'10 - 5'6. The ideal height is around 5'0, because I'd like there to be a bit of a gap in our heights, but as long as her height falls in that range, it's fine.Is this still revelant?Yeah that makes sense. You're a short guy, its strange because sometimes guys a whole foot taller than you at like 6'6 have the same range and its just a bit weird to have that huge of a height difference, but it makes sense for you.
Agreed. I do think it's preferable for the guy to be taller than the girl, but I don't see why a huge gap like that would be desirable. It looks like a giant dating a child.
Plus, when super tall guys and super short girls pair up, in a way, they end up screwing over both short guys and tall girls. In theory, the short guys and tall girls could pair up, but like I said, most guys want to be the taller one and most girls want to be the shorter one.I mean thats their loss lol, I dont see how thats practical for either member. At least with short men and tall women the height gap isn''t even that big, the woman is just taller. there's a lot of tall women that don't give a shit if a guy is shorter even if he's legit short, as long as he's a good guy

Yeah, I know there are women who don't mind being taller than their partner. But that's not the case for most, and I think something that women don't realize is how much men attach their sense of dominance and masculinity to their heights. For me personally, if I dated a woman taller than me, no matter how many times she reassured me that she was fine with it, it would never stop bothering me. Same way I could never allow myself to cry in front of my partner over something non-serious, no matter how much she tried to convince that it wouldn't change her opinion of me. It's just a guy thing that you wouldn't understand. Best to just avoid all that by sticking it out for a girl who's shorter than me.

- Most men do not care about height at all. But given my own absolute garbage shitty height, I personally don't want to date short girls. I don't want to be in a "short couple." Although lacking height myself, the chances of me finding someone who would genuinely be attracted to me and not be a gold-digger or thot or something are astronomically low.
Ideally, I'd want tall women; 5'9" and up (I don't consider 5'8" tall on a girl at all, and even 5'9" barely qualifies), with the ideal being 6'2" to 6'5". Because if I have to be short, she can at the very least, have the genetic blessings in the relationship. I say that IDEALLY, but realistically, height is irrelevant when looking at girls, because short girls want tall guys, and tall girls want tall guys, so I lose either way.Is this still revelant?

020- To an extent, like I probably wouldn't date a dwarf.
As someone who's never dated before, I like the ideal of being with a taller woman (I'm 159cm), but someone around my height would do just fine, as I try to distinguish standards from preferences.ReactLike

- For me its about the personality and does that make up for the height difference. Such as how loving the other half is can make things like height more of minor inconvience I can later forget about.React

How tall are you? So a 5'5 and under woman can be a complete bitch and you would still like her?

why are you putting words in my mouth because I prefer shorter girls? I neve3r said anything like that. Most people evaluate a prospective partner on many things.
Girls prefer tall men
Guys prefer shorter women
there are many different variables involved and we consider them all together. If you are acting like this around guys then your height is probably not the factor I'm just asking a question, you said if women are taller than 5'5 they have to bring more to the table so you seem to be the one that might be a bit shallow here. What exactly do they have to bring? You never answered my question about how tall you are either. I'm just genuinely curious why you have the thoughts you do. Are you like 5'6 or 5'7? Cause that would make sense, other than that I don't think this is too common amongst guys

i am 6'2"
You don't think what is common among men? The height thing?
5' 4" is a sweet spot for me but I can accept shorter girls too
You say that I am shallow for expecting a girl to bring more to the table but we all have our own list of desirable attributes. I didn't even specify what mine were other than height. Maybe they revolve around her job or her degree. Maybe i want a socially conscious girl or a religious girl. You just make wild accusations
I mean you're literally one of the few here that don't care about height. Do you see the poll results? Most men don't care about height. You still continue to avoid my questions. What exactly do you like about women 5'5 and under? What do women 5'6+ have to bring to the table? How are 5'6 - 5'11 women not short to you when you are 6'2?
I'm asking these questions because they are your words you moron. I'm simply assuming that women 5'6+ might need to have bigger tits or a certain body shape or weigh a certain amount so thats why I assume you're a bit shallow on it. Prove me wrong I don't know I can't read your fucking mind
I literally asked you a few questions and you still haven't answered them. Is it really hard to answer them? You make these claims I didn't. If you fail to answer them that says more about you
You've got issues dude, he wasn't even saying anything. I'm surprised women are even with you. Even a toddler can answer the questions I've asked. I'm sorry that its so difficult for you to have the ability to answer questions
I was respectful you the first time I asked you questions, you didn't answer. I tried asking again, you didn't answer. I asked you a third time, you didn't answer. I would literally get better responses froma toddler than you, much quicker too.
*facepalm* I said it so many times, What exactly do you like about women 5'5 and under? What do women 5'6+ have to bring to the table? How are 5'6 - 5'11 women not short to you when you are 6'2?
