I love tall women, but they (like short women) don't like short men; less than six feet tall. Although tall women tend to be less rude and asshole-ish when it comes to wanting men that are taller than them. You're beautiful, but I guarantee you, you wouldn't be interested in me, if all you knew about me was my looks. Y'know; if you were single.
Man, I've had such a sh*tty day and now I come across the 1,000th woman on this site who is taller than my short-ass. Between @JosyJosy, @A_Bell, @not_a_twinkie, and @nerdyandtall (calling you here), I feel even more like sh*t for being a genetic failure. Height is my biggest insecurity, by the way. I feel like I never finished growing up. Like I got stuck halfway there. For f*ck sake's, one user's baby sister is even my height! (181 cm.)
Sorry. I don't need to rant to you. Just having a bad day, and now I'm reminded, "Oh yeah, I'm a short little sh*t and genetic failure, too." That on top of the horrible news I got earlier. This isn't just what I think; many guys who hate their height feel this way.
Anyway, it's not you. You're beautiful. You just kinda bring up my own flaws and failures within myself. Things I can't fix, no matter what I do. That, and like I said, tall (and short) women aren't interested in short men.
First off my height is also my biggest insecurity and my husband is shorter than me. I am sorry that you are having a rough day. It will get better.
@JosyJosy
I can't comprehend that statement as being even remotely factual (especially considering you're 5'10"). But I won't say "you're lying," either.
@Subarugirl
Thank you. I'm sorry you feel the same way, too. I had a drawing that describes how much it SUCKS being shorter than you were meant to be as a guy, and I think it says it better than my words can.
Maybe you could give me six inches and shrink down to 5'6"? That's awesome you were willing to marry with a short guy, though. Literally, 96% of (straight) women, statistically, wouldn't date a short guy/guy shorter than them. How tall is your husband?
He's an inch shorter than I am.
5 ft 9in really isn't short by the way
@Subarugirl
I'm NOT 5'9". You did the Google thing and misread 181 cm as 5.90 feet, but the decimals aren't feet and inches.
Then that would be 5ft 11 inches?
isn't average height for men around 5'7 anyways?
@NerdyAndTall that sounds about right
You're not small and height has nothing to do with being a failure
In the first place, YOU ARE GORGEOUS!!! Just a compliment, I'm not trying to hit on you.
It all comes down to personal preference. Some prefer tall, some short and others in-between (medium height). Then there are those who are so Switzerland that they don't care at all. I haven't dated in over eight years, and in that time I had asked myself if ever I was interested in getting back into the game again (LOL!!!), what would be my preferences. One of them was height. Then I thought to myself, "just whomever I'm attracted to (and vice-versa)". But it is important to not be self conscious about how you appear. You are as tall as you are, and that is just how you are meant to be!
Look at me (just an expression), I am 6' 2", and I never think about my height. I just live day-to-day, and if out of slim chance I ever did change my mind about dating... this is how I am (appearance-wise). I will be 40 in five weeks and one day. And in that time, I have learned that even though we are able to change particular characteristics about ourselves, there are some we can't.
So if you are feeling self-conscious about your height, just remember that you are you and you are how you are meant to be!
If I can be of any more assistance, you are welcome to message me.
You’re gorgeous I would definitely date you but would be scared you would reject me for being short 😂
@Sheyhoney How tall are you
@Bklynbadboy12 6 ft
Cool
@Bklynbadboy12 Im 5’2 🙄
Oh my gosh I’m so sorry, I’m just now seeing that that question was not directed at me. 😬 I’m sorry
No its okay
Aww

, you are imagining things. Guys love tall women.
ehhh, not from my experience. I've been fetishized a good amount.. but that's not something I like.
Real women in those pics? How tall is the tallest one?
@moviedude714
It's not real. It's from a Photoshop guy named Lowerrider.
@moviedude714 No idea but the guy was probably short to make the girls look taller.

Tall women can be very sexy and beautiful but I have never met one who was willing to date a guy who was shorter than her.
My husband is shorter than I am, and most of my sister’s boyfriends have been shorter than her lol
The prettiest lady I ever dated was very close to 6 feet tall, I am only 5'9". At first I felt like she would not want to date a shorter guy so I stayed friends with her for almost year. We hung around in the same group so we saw each other often.
When we started to date the height thing kinda just went away. We had a lot of fun together and even enjoyed dancing together on a weekly basis.
We never made it as a couple after we graduated from College where we meet. The problem was not height, she was ready to get married and I was not. Probably the biggest mistake I ever made.
I went with a 6’4” woman and she was almost as tall as I was. Intimidating, no, just strong as hell; those legs were a wrestling match. When she decided she was going to use those legs, there wasn’t much I could do about it; she could leg lock my ass and good. It was nice to be size matched in height for a lot of reasons, one being face-to-face, missionary, and everything fit so nice for a change. It is nice to have a lot of woman there in the right proportions and then going to a petite 5’1” can mess with one’s mind a bit. The odd thing though is the tall women typically are more standoffish while the short ones are pushy and pursue. It is almost as if there is gene balancing in mating; where shorter goes with tall regardless of which is taller. Do I think a tall woman is intimidating? No, the tall ones have always been a magnet to me. In a group of women, I always instinctively went for the tall one, and somehow a short one would wedge her way in lol.
Her height doesn’t bother me really unless she is a giant near me but even that might not stop me if she is beautiful lol I am 6 foot so her being 6 foot or a little bit taller then me wouldn’t really bother me what so ever , it might be my height that bothers her , For some reason It seems height matters to girls , but not always the case , when I am attracted to a girl I am mainly looking at her eyes and her smile and her body and of course her personality, But for girls that are tall it’s hard to say what she is into considering most girls are attracted to a guy that they can feel safe and secure with and she can feel protected unless she wants to be the dominate one lol
Ah, you're so cute humble bragging. :P I'm 6'5". I like very tall (neck savers) and very short (fun-sized to throw around) women. Where I live (ATX), there's an absurd number of both. :) I've met 2 women who are about 6'7" and over a dozen who are 6'3"-6'5". If she's 3"-6" shorter than the guy, that's just about perfect because of heels.
I hear I intimate the $*%@ out of younger ladies unless they have lots of confidence. Oddly enough, regardless of age, the more attractive ones seem to be more outgoing, relaxed, and friendlier.
Fun TMI fact: statistically, tall women get more baby butter out of a guy. It's some weird biological thing.
I find them attractive, because to me, taller equals stronger. I'm not exactly attracted to women who are just tall; it's good if they have some strength and athleticism on top of that.
My friend's sister is 5'10 and a half, and she was able to lift 50+ pound objects in the past. And she wasn't athletic when this happened. But she did gain a bit more muscle in the past few months due to her job and helping out her family. It helps that her mom taught her how to box and protect herself with a knife and mace.
She's even stronger than me, and she likes that because it makes her feel dominant. I make her feel like one of Greek Amazons, and I'm glad I make her feel that way.
My mom was 5'11" and was in the Marines. I have seen pix of her and she looked awesome. I dated a girl that was 5'11". She was a competitive swimmer. She had broad shoulders and was just big all over. I thought she was beautiful.
If I was not married and was not old enough to be your father I would have no problem asking you on a date.
I feel like most guys don't really care much about height, the only reason they start caring is that other people start to add this stigma in them where they start shaming them for having a taller girl when they are not that tall themselves.
But are you open to date men shorter than you?
My husband is shorter than I am
Most will date them, some of us strongly prefer tall women.
As hot as you are, I have a hard time believing guys avoided you...
Well I haven't dated since I was in my teen, maybe it was just because I was shy
lol I was home schooled, till my sr year of high school and then when to a boarding school in Michigan. I could count one hand the number of times I have been hit on from someone I didn't really know.
Thanks:)
The majority of men want the woman to be shorter. That tends to work out as , it seems, most women want the guy to be taller. At 6' 3", that has never been an issue with me. But 6' is the tallest I would go when dating a woman. My ex-wife was 5" 10". All my boys are tall ranging from 6' 2" to 6' 4".
First of all, no guy is EVER intimidated by ANYTHING from ANY woman. Period.
Secondly, most women prefer their man be at least their height. If you find a really great guy that comes up a little short, then the attraction level is up to you. All any guy EVER looks for is YOUR level of attraction and desire for HIM.
Actually I have intimidated a few men... lol
And you were just in awe of them too, right? NOT. SMH
Sorry… what?
@Browneye57 You could just clarify what you mean... I know that your comment is how you feel.. but it's also pretty off topic.
@Browneye57 how about you use some manners instead of attacking people. Seriously what is your problem? Are you threatened? Offended? Misogynistic? What?
@Browneye57 You're the one causing issues. This is my thread, you fuck off.
It's not YOUR thread, it's A thread on GAG. Get off your high horse you bimbo. You're a fucking moron. You and your tall woman bullshit. You fuck off.
Guess what? The whole thing disappears if I delete the question.. just saying. I don’t even get why you’re so upset? I tried to find out but you just started calling names
I don't give a fuck what you do, and I'm not mad or upset. Proof positive why you can't get clear communication through texting.
Guys are not intimidated by women. Period. Unless they're a beta-cuck girlie-man. Otherwise, they just don't give a shit. Dnc873 is one of those - and a white knight, and he argues like a girl.
You do whatever you want. I makes zero difference in my life.
As an aside, I MARRIED a tall woman. Well, she's not that tall, but within an inch or so of my height. When she puts heels on she's taller. And she's absolutely gorgeous.
So, you just do you. :)
I’m not the one calling people names, you are. Also I don’t have an issue admitting that certain people intimidate me. What is so horribly weak and demasculinizing about admitting that men can be intimidated by a woman?
I genuinely want to know why you think that men cannot be intimidated by women
Nothing. They're just not.
I just calls 'em as I sees 'em. YOU started the 'fuck off' bullshit, and the other guy with the white-knight bullshit. He's blocked. I just don't deal with that.
Now, we can either go forward with something constructive, or say our goodbyes. I'm good either way.
From what I can see, you're having trouble finding a decent guy that's tall enough for you. Is that about right?
And it's not about the height for the guys. Well, if he's really short then yeah, for sure. Otherwise, if he's too weak to go for what he wants, then you don't want him anyway. You'll be bored to tears. You want a go-getter guy that's good looking and funny, that has some bucks to spend on you, and makes you laugh and have fun. And the sex is good. Tell me I'm wrong.
Well that wasn’t really the question. I’m married I have been for over 4 years. What I am curious about now is why you think that men cannot be intimidated by women. It’s just an interesting perspective.
The only reason a stand-up guy would EVER be intimidated by any woman, is if she was going to shoot him, or beat the crap out of him, or falsely accuse him of rape. THEN he might be intimidated.
Your height? Uh, no. Sorry toots.
And YOU asked the question about height, not me. So if it's not about YOU, then you're just making shit up. Which seems to be somewhat common here, but I'll call every one of them out I see.
Four years - so impressive. Compared to my FORTY. WOW! SMH.
I just find it interesting that the possibility that a woman could be intimidating makes you so defensive, but we can agree to disagree.
There's no defense. Yes, we disagree. You think you know something... you just don't. Oh well.
And all the arguing - don't be surprised when your man dumps your ass for being such a recalcitrant bitch. You'll see.
No offence, but your opinion of the relationship between my husband and I isn't any of your business. I respect my husband, you on the other hand.. not so much.
You're really hung up on this superiority bullshit, which is all a giant fail. You could not offend me if you tried, which you've tried your damnedest. I just don't give a fuck.
But you'll see. My crystal ball is absolutely uncanny. Have fun on gag.
I'm pretty sure I never said once anything about anyone being superior here. But I guess I can help the way you interpret things. Anyways, you've inspired to ask around about their experiences with being intimidated. Hope you are nicer to wife than you are to girls online young enough to be your daughter. Have a good life
Tall women are great, I used to be engaged to a tall girl (we were both 6ft).
While I've stated that I prefer short girls with smaller boobs since her, it doesn't matter because the tall girl is the one I loved the most and it had nothing to do with her size. Preferences are cute, but they mean little in matters of the heart.
If you have a decent personality it doesn't matter to me. I know that I would not be as intimidated by someone my size... little people look fragile. Granted I am not a giant by far or weigh as much as a semi. I just know if I fall I can break things well.. except for the floor on most things.. old ass cheap Mobile home flooring I go through really well damned small feet with increased psi.
If you are that obnoxious athlete:

Then yea, you're gonna have a hard time. Otherwise, be normal. Couldn't care less. Most women (no matter how unrealistic) want a guy who is taller than them. So men under 6ft are automatically gonna be skeptical of you as a partner.
You can tell me the weather, when you run out of things to talk about.
But seriously. Height, race and family are things no one has control over.
I am below average height so I am completely invisible to tall women. And that is being polite. Women love to date up, meaning they want a guy taller than them. And they want of course a rich guy too. So we’re talking maybe <3% of the total dating pool will match that criteria. Accordingly I think it is probably hell to try to date as a tall woman. But again, I am less than nothin and might as well be a cockroach in the eyes of tall ladies. So…..
I think they’ll make tall boys? I think the genetics are promising... short girls are fun to play with to make me feel all big and strong, but a tall girl is usually stronger and has a deeper vagina. And a girl close to my height is preferable for day to day life. Short girls hurt my neck...
Be proud of who you are whether short or tall. There are many benefits both ways! 😊
I’m 5’11 and guys do tell me I’m so big which I don’t like to hear. I’m tall but not big
I like them, quite a few in the North East of England, mainly due to a lot of Norse, Angle blood etc
seeing 6ft Blondes is relatively normal
I have no problem with tall women, I am 5'8" I have gone out with girls 6'2" and it was fine 😁
Truth is shorter the better. To me though its really more about weight than height. I stay slim at 185ish. I like girls who weight 50lbs less. So max 135. If you are tall or short and weigh 135 or less i dont care much. Its just even if you're proportional at 6 1 for a girl you could easily weigh my weight and id find that disgusting. If you were rail thin id not have a big deal about the height.
It's cool TBH.
Unless some is like a dwarf or something, then height doesn't necessarilly determine how attractive one is to me, although in theory I like the idea of being with a taller woman.
I myself am 159cm, so I'm really short.
you're also very good looking and that can be intimidating by itself, for some men... but not all men, the one that's worth and the kind of man you should want, he's still going to be very interested in you.
I always think of the old line... "she is worth the climb"
Lol I have never heard that one
More to love!
That way I don't have to be the one to always get something out of the top cupboards.
Well i feel great about it. I am actually 5"11 and my girlfriend is 6"1 and she is really lovely and my protector from bullies. When i am with her, she act in a most lovely way and kiss me all the time.
i like tall girls, i’m 5’10 and have gone out with girls your height before. i’m usually hesitant to hit on them tho cuz i assume they want a guy that’s taller than them which is totally understandable. So when a tall girl actually flirts with me it’s always a pleasant surprise 😅
they're cool especially if they look like you at 5'9 my only issue generally with gettin with taller women is generally less confidence with women who're under 5'10 the issue on the side of the height coin is too much confidence and the strong possibility there of
You're a beautiful woman...
Height is irrelevant, albeit not many girls are above the 5'10 height mark I don't think tall ladies should be overlooked just because of how tall they are
A girls height has nothing to do with what I end up thinking about them. My experience though has shown me that tall girls are more interested in guys that are taller than them.
Yeah becomes generally girls like to date guys taller than them and vice versa but it won't matter if you find the right guy
I'm six foot. My wife was 5'2". Kissing was like a yoga exercise!
Height doesn't matter to me at all. Height doesn't matter to most men.

But I love snu-snu
I'm 6'1" and I normally go for a shorter woman, like under 5'6"ish, but someone as pretty as you who in their right mind would say no to a date!
They are good Miss, I know it may not be true but whenever I see a tall girl I think she must be athletic, it would be fun playing basketball with her.
I think taller women are attractive. I think I would be more intimidated by your beauty than your height.
I'm 6'.
I'd might have requested that you didn't wear 5" stilettos often but that would probably be the extent of it.
I don't wear heels lol so that wouldn't be an issue
hiking boots sometimes, only when I am hiking though
I just sort of assume talker women want a tall guy, so I don’t try to talk to then. And I get nervous anyway, so that extra foot and a half of woman makes me feel anxious 🤣😬
To be honest with you I am 5.6 and I love to date tall girls only. Unfortunately I don’t get some. And the ones I get to see they have boyfriend. But you are beautiful and you shouldn’t care about your height.
Tall guys date short girls. Tall women do not date shorter guys. It's not that shorter men don't want you, it is more like they think you most likely aren't interested because that is the norm.
I've dated a woman taller than me before. It wasn't bad just different than what I was used to. You are definitely cute enough to not feel weird about an inch or so.
Well I’m 6’3”. I’d date you for sure. You’re hot af.
May I tell you that you are intimidating, but in very good ways?
YOW!
Absolutely stunning and beautiful! And such a lovely and sweet expression.
Another leg-humper. Bimbo is flattered. LOL
@Browneye57 On the contrary old man, just proving a point ;)
I'm not intimidated by tall women, it is just i don't find many taller than me. I'm 6''2
Maybe a little intimidating, depending on the personality, but I’m good with it.
Sorry random question but I was kind of having an argument with another user who think that men cannon be intimidated by women. Do you feel like being intimidated by a women makes you somehow less of a man?
I’ve met plenty of intimidating women. If it makes me less of a man that kind of sucks lol..
For the record I don’t think it does
I like tall girls. I once dated one that was 6 foot 5 and I am 6 foot 3 it was awesome. She could do things a short girl can't do
I don't! Because I'm 6'5" and anyone under it isn't tall to me. Ergo women's height doesn't matter to me.
Hmm with your profile pic you don't seem like you are 6ft but that's great anyways
Well it is hard to gauge a persons height from a selfie of someone’s face
Yeah that's true
And just would like to say you are quite naturally beautiful 🙂
Thanks, that's very sweet
I guess we would be classified as the tall couple because I am considered tall too. No I definitely don't mind for my girl height to be honest.
I’m 6’5”, so a woman’s height has never crossed my mind.
I love to date a Tall chick and I'm like 5'9" - 5'10", yes height would not be an issue for me
hey you are just the perfect height for me to kiss👌👍🤣
Love em. Plus certain sex positions become easier if the girl is tall.
Tall women are hot, but never met one who was willing to date shorter ahah
I married a man shorter than me
He's one lucky man!
On the contrary, I am the lucky one. He’s an amazing husband and father
That's warming to hear
I think tall women are beautiful, I think shirt women are beautiful, height doesn't matter, you matter
Most men don't have issues with tall women, what is your opinion on shorter men?
I married one
You are rare, a friend of mine that I thought she was into me, rejected me. She was 2 cm taller (almost one inch), and told me she would have jumped all over me if I was taller.
Generally, its because of our own insecurities as tall people that we want a taller man.
I get it, feel more "secure" with talker men. But I am also muscular and I teach martial arts.
I think most women that want a taller man want to feel small and feminine with their partners if that makes sense. Height doesn't have to be the only thing that can make a women feel feminine but its the easiest to spot at first glance.
I understand, and also there is a bigger difference with heels. I assume your short husband makes you feel feminine, good. How does he make you feel that? All physical way or also in behaviour?
Both and I don't ever wear heels. Mostly because I already dislike being tall and don't want to be any taller
I am glad you are happy with your relationship and thanks for the responses!
Sorry to intrude, @Subarugirl, but if your husband is shorter than you and you're insecure about it, how did you two make it work despite that?
@TomGarand I am insecure about some of my physical attributes but he makes me forget about my insecurities
@TomGarand it’s about how he acts, how he feels about himself and how he treats me
Well, regarding my answer to your question--and I don't know if you read it or not--I wouldn't want a woman I was with to feel insecure about being tall. To me, taller=stronger, and physical strength and power is attractive in a woman.
Again, my friend's little sister is the biggest and strongest one of us three--yes, she's taller than her older brother--and it boosts her ego.
I make her feel like one of the Amazons of Greek mythology, and I love that I make her feel that way. I assume if you were also stronger than your hubby, that would tear you up inside.
@TomGarand no actually he has always been stronger than me lol
@TomGarand no not at all if they were compatible
Well, maybe I'm biased because to me a woman who's delicate isn't that hot, but your tallness shouldn't be a source of insecurity. Think about this--you're most likely stronger than most women with your build by virtue of your height.
Though for me personally, I'm looking for an amazon, not a model.
In my eyes, your height is actually a plus.
@TomGarand okay?
I like tall girls, one of my girlfriends was was a basketball player, she was 6'5", she would twist her legs around my neck, I miss her very much.
It don't be bother me and im 61 myself but anyways FYI ur fine as fck
I find them attractive. Obviously it depends on their looks beyond height, and their personality.
