What traits are usually associated with being tall?

[Unbeatable]

Women like tall men. Big news, right? A lot of them feel entitled to tall men and call other men second-class options they might "settle" for.
Personally I dont believe height is the only factor for why tall men are attractive. Another GAGer has said that tall men are generally more intelligent, emotionally sensitive, and healthier.
What other traits than just height have you noticed occur more often in tall guys?

This post is complete bullshit because tall men are generally more intelligent, emotionally sensitive, and healthier. Is a fucking lie... tall men are not more attractive.. short men are not second options I dont know where you get your information from but this post is complete shit.. I can say for a fact I've dated tall and short.. I am not going to put down the tall men I dated because to put them in a category to say all tall men are like this is WRONG exactly what you did to short men!!! The tall guys I have dated both over 6ft both cheated and one was very abusive. I could have a tall man there's one that wants to date me he's 6ft 2 one of my friends he made it known 2 months into my relationship with my current man who 5ft 3..

This 5ft 3 man is more intelligent than any person I have ever met just the way horrible things can happen and he doesn't panic he goes straight to a possible solution! he's the most attractive man I have ever met inside and out.. I feel safe tucked into him right under his chin below his beard.. both men are very nice but taller guys seem to think they are better which isn't true and the thought taller guys have bigger dicks is a lie too.. one tall guy over 6ft had the smallest dick I ever seen I felt bad for the guy.. so I faked being turned on and got him to break up with me by acting very needy and ordering a lot of food when he said hed pay.. I had no reason to break up with him so it was easier to do that so hed break up with me.. a guy which was 5ft 4 had the largest dick I ever seen felt disappointed I couldnt deep throat it he said dont worry about it most women dont even try once they see it sex was very painful we dated awhile but I didn't enjoy sex he was good to me.. but he started to assume I was lying like where did you go? I was walking my dog? With who? No one.. are you sure? Constantly plus he was kinda a mooch... so I broke that off.. saying all this to say theories about tall and short men are just theories there's no facts behind them.. and my man now may not be the tallest man.. but I believe he's best suited for me.. his dick isn't the biggest but it feels the best inside me.. I feel safer than ever.. he's very strong even tho he doesn't look like it.. you can't tell unless he lifts something.. so to say he's second option or I had to settle for him is completely bullshit when in reality put him in a room with a bunch of guys id be looking for him no one else would do! he's not perfect either am I but he's the best relationship I ever had! he's always used his strength to help me not against me!

So bottom line here height has nothing to do with qualities or characteristics of a man!! To the women who think tall guys are better your wrong every man is an individual its like saying the best women are tall/short (whatever the opposite you are) for reasons A B and C.. when really A B and C have nothing to do with your height.. how does that make you feel? And to men who think your better than cause your taller your not.. its all in your heads.. to drive the point home height has nothing to do with the things you listed.. To all the tall guys out there im not saying short guys are better or worse im saying your height doesn't determine whose a better man im just sticking up for the shorter man.. too much I find their confidence is already lower than a tall guy cause of these stereotypes.. tall guys sometimes think their the bees knees/ as good as it gets they brag themselves up (sometimes not every tall guy) and short guys say it as it is or dont try and change your wrong stereotypes of them (sometimes)..

Bottom line a tall or short guy is a guy and that guy determines the rest!! To say one is better or worse is bullshit both are valuable!

[FlySwimmer]

Do most tall guys really think they are better than short guys? I am tall but wtf why would I think that? I meannn, girls may have preferences, but that could just as easily prefer shorter men than prefer taller men..

[PeacefulRainDrop]

Some do.. I've heard it why do you want him? I could treat you better..

I dont believe its all tall guys just some.. or maybe just the few I ran into..

Yes people have preferences each to their own.. I think the way the guy acts tells all you need to know.. watch him interact with people how does he treat waitresses/waiters.. when his order is messed up how does he react? Does he hold the door for another person coming or only if its a woman? Does he get impatient with me if im trying to decide what to eat? Does he enjoy being outside? Camping? What are his values and goals in life? there's a lot more to a person than what meets the eye

[Unbeatable]

What are you on

[FlySwimmer]

She is on reality, why don’t you give it a try?

[Saville_Row]

You can definitely get away with a few extra pounds if you are tall, and of course, this applies to men and women, but is uncommon in women.

And it might just be a coincidence, but the two really tall guys I have dated have been total sweetheats. Very sensitive and attentive to everyone's needs, not just mine.

[hellionthesagereborn]

No, height has nothing to do with intelligence or health, in fact if your tall you actually have a shorter life span because the amount of blood in your body doesn't scale to your size and your heart has to work twice as hard (which is why people with gigantism tend to die thirty to fourty years younger then those without it).

The reason is because its genetic but also partially nutritional. So historically taller meant probably at least partially, better access to food and thus implied better fitness of the male and ability to acquire food (hence why north koreans are so short yet people in the west are significantly taller). However again, this is only partially responsible for height the other part is genetic and right now with every one in the west having access to food, the one factor that mattered for height is not applicable but women are biologically wired for it so they still seek it out to the point where its become quite a bit unreasonable (when you are demanding men be over six feet tall or you won't date them, your being irrational, their is simply no other excuse to it. Its like a man demanding that all women should have H cups and anything less is undatable, its just idiotic.).

[EssenceOfLight]

I'm not the only tall boy who has the feel short guys hate us without a reason, therefore it's better to keep distance to them because they always backstab you if you give them the opportunity

[Unbeatable]

Actually true

[iceland1]

Some tall guys have adam's apple, which I find attractive. But, I don't really find any particular traits that only tall guys will have except for reaching a high shelf 😂

I too like my guy to be taller than me but not very much. I am 5'2 and I'll like my guy to be around 5'6 or 5'7

[Anonymous]

1. You can use them as a shade against sunlight. I am sure you can use them for rain too
2. They will have to hold the umbrella cause short people holding the umbrella cause chaos if there's other people involved
3. Pick things up from top shelves
4. When you're sick and standing, you can rest your head on their backs as a support

Things i have experienced from having a tall best friend.

[The_Maphio]

Tall equals mass. Mass equals strength. Subconsciously those are known fact that normally belong in physics, and one of the standard staples for females' choice of their partner since pre-history.
Let's say it's a matter of instincts: you choose the best for reproduction and stronger is better. In a comfortable, conflict devoid society that is not a useful trait, but it's built in our genetics as members of an animal species.

[crazy8000]

The length has more to to with ideology than anything else when it really comes to it.

The thing is many aren't aware of it themselves.

That's why many of them change their mind when they get older since they get more developed and ditch it.

[Unbeatable]

Tell me more

[VanillaSalt]

Bad picture for the example... Twins was about two brother genetically modified in the womb. Arnold was a twin given all the good stuff and Danny was the twin with all the shit qualities.

[Anonymous]

Shorter guys are just shorter, that's it. The only traits I can associate with being taller are things like naturally walking faster and reaching higher, things that directly correlate with their height. Anything else is misinformation.
This is a ridiculous question. I like to think most women don't view shorter men as second class.

[Anonymous]

Tall guys are generally uglier and uncoordinated.
Oh and their feet stink.
Also lots of them have average size penises that look tiny on their huge bodies.
They snore loudly and use way too much toilet paper.
Tall guys have morning breath that smells like garbage.

[RachelBrooke]

I’m a woman and I’m tall. I hate that about myself too. Short people are cute and I’m a giraffe.

[Ditto626]

Well you're a cute giraffe. 😉

[Coolkat12345]

This is somewhat true but I think you misunderstood something. It is true woman like a man who is taller than THEM. They don’t want a man that is a lot taller than them tho, as long as the guy is a few inches taller or at least an inch taller then woman are cool with that. Trust me a woman wouldn’t want a guy who is like 10 inches taller.

[Toast792]

I don't know about guys, but I'm tall, and it adds to the whole 'scary look' apparently. People are usually to nervous to approach me..

[Unbeatable]

How tall are you?

[Toast792]

I meant 'I'm not into guys'. stupid auto correct lol. I'm 5'11.

[Toast792]

Wait wrong question nvm. There was a similar question I got confused 😅

[Unbeatable]

No one thinks you're scary at 5'11 with a females muscle mass

[Toast792]

Lmao you've never seen me 😂

[Unbeatable]

My pm is open.

[oldasIfeel22]

There are no “traits” with height. I guess short men can tend to be more feisty (because they have to).

I’m 6ft. Never really thought much about height being a big deal with dating.

[Anonymous]

I am not really your target since I do not go for tall men. Though, it did not stop several tall men from approaching me, more tall men than shorter/average, and what they had in common was being very outgoing, confident and charming.

[NorthAfrican]

I guess strength. Since they are bigger they hurt more when they hit someone. Unless they're very unfit or skinny.

[hellionthesagereborn]

Not really. They do have reach and that can increase damage from a strike however they are also much more susceptible to grappling as their longer limbs can act as levers and with a higher center of gravity they can be knocked off balance easier then a guy who is shorter.

[4dmins-4-13itches]

I think they're usually skinnier, lankier, more awkward, more timid. Being tall doesn't mean being buff.

[Unbeatable]

Awkwardness is sourced from a sense of superiority since early childhood, common in intelligent people

[danielp27]

@Unbeatable “awkwardness is sourced from a sense of superiority since early childhood” how do you come to that conclusion? Just curious.

[PaynefulPleasures]

Mostly genetic makeup
Gigantism
Acromegaly
I think that's what is associated with height

[Ayanna240]

same reason why guys love short girls. you would prefer a short girl. so why would you hate on women for preferring tall men?

[msbrightness]

It's all personal/individual. You can't generalise and be right, without denying someone's rights to personal choices.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Well, with being tall you can change light bulbs better where if your shorter it's harder

[KrakenAttackin]

Being a tall man is a huge advantage in life, just like a woman who has large breasts.

[Synikal]

I don't know. Deeper voice. Longer appendages. Can't classify jobs or careers since anyone of any height can qualify for that.

[kevyhanma]

That’s why I like tall girls they’re taller than most people so they won’t care if you’re shorter because most people are

[Anonymous]

Most aren't very well built. They all have the same generic look in my opinion.

[hanaya]

I love the men who is taller then me

[DeltaCharlieEcho]

Bring tall. And that’s about it.

[robocop666]

I used to be short and I hated it

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Usually more relaxed
