Why is that women care more about man's height than vice versa?

[Anonymous]

I have seen that many guys are comparatively open-minded in dating tall girls. Meanwhile the opposite I have barely seen. Why is that women are so shallow in this thing? Like, what should a short guy do? Kill himself? Even a 5 ft womanlet says 6 ft and up or minimum 5'10. Like wtf are short guys supposed to do then? Is this supposed to be a joke or something?

Because many (if not most) women see men as "providers." Tall men provide women with physical protection and safety in their eyes. If a man is short, he's useless to most women in that regard. It's the same reason many women don't give broke guys a chance; he can't "provide" her with money and wealth. And the same reason women don't give humble men a chance; he can't provide her with second-hand confidence to leech off of.

"Like, what should a short guy do? Kill himself? Even a 5 foot womanlet says 6 foot and up. Like wtf are short guys supposed to do then?"

Give up pursing most women. I'm serious. That's what this short guy did. It's a losing battle to try to win the favor and good graces of people who hate you just for existing. And while it's true that women DO look for more things that height in a man, they don't look for much more. Height, ego, and social status. Those are the only three things that matter to women. Be tall, be uber-confident, be successful. While the ego is the biggest thing women look for in men, 40%, the other two are still a whopping 30%.

So if you're a man who's confident and successful like Tom Cruise, at best, you're still only a 7 in her eyes. A seven! And if you're only confident but you're short and an everyday working Joe, then you're only going to be a 4 in her eyes! Undateable!

I hate to throw blackpills at you, but I'm short too. Not as short as you perhaps, but still in the undateable zone of height. Not six feet or taller. While you MAY be able to find a good woman who'll happily take what she deems to be a "4 out of 10" (to her), the chances of that happening are too low to put much stock in it, in my opinion. Especially when you take everything else into account you've got to be perfect at, to please modern Western women.

This was taken from the comment section of that video:

You're allowed to have one thing wrong with you in the looks department, but not two.

1. Are you short? That's okay as long as you're in shape, have a good face and a full head of hair.

2. Are you bald? That's okay as long as you're tall, have a good face and are in shape.

3. Are you out of shape? That's okay as long as you're tall, have a good face and have a full head of hair.

4. Do you have an ugly face? That's okay as long as you're tall, have a full head of hair and are in shape.

5. Do you have two of any of these bad qualities? Then it's over.

This is why you always hear normies say "I know a guy who's X and slays."

Because tall men look more masculine and tall genes are superior to short genes.

its cause men are desperate for sex so they generally have less criteria

and plenty of short men get a girlfriend so its not like no woman would date short men, otherwise they would go extinct, so stop being so dramatic

Short men have no standards these days. So they will go with anyone, doesn't matter if the women is abusive, disloyal or something.

Most women don't care.
Things like penis size and boob size and body hair amount and how cute a person is and what shape their body and face is are what people tend to actually care about (physically speaking).
