Is it wrong not wanting to date a guy because he's not tall enough?
Let's say the woman always wanted to date a guy who is at least 177cm tall but doesn't necessarily need a giant who is over 190cm.
What do you think about this case?
I am tall (187 cm). I mostly date short women (five feet or shorter is best, but my current woman is a tall 5’4”, or 162cm). I like short girls. It is not fair to tall girls, but I do not care.
if you like tall men, that is normal. Most women like tell men. The only issue is that you will be competing with more women. I used to live in China. They love guys who look like me (tall, blond). I got tons of beautiful women. I married one and brought her to the US. It was wonderful for me, having so many women want me.
if you like men that all the other women want (tall, high-status, high-income,…), then you will compete against many women. Those men can behave badly and never be alone.
the advantage in dating short guys, or poor guys,…, is that they will appreciate you more, and these men are less likely to be taken from you by other women.
traditionally, women all fight over the same handful of men. These attractive men lie, cheat, and in general behave badly. Do you want to chase those men, or perhaps try for less attractive , but more honorable men? The choice is yours, but make sure you understand that the men that seem the best to you, might just be monsters.
That sounds like the most typical, average, heterosexual woman on the planet. Literally the only uncommon thing here is that you said "at least 177cm" which is 5'9.5". No woman who has these standards would be fine with a guy that short. The real minimum is 183cm, or six feet tall. And 182 would only work if the guy is in Tim's all day and never takes his boots off.
As for it being "wrong?" Yeah, I think it's shallow as f*ck and speaks volumes of a woman's character, or lack thereof. But it's also to be expected of women to have height requirements. 96% of Western heterosexual women want men who are at least six feet tall. To me, that just says 96% of Western women are trash. Not all, though. That 4% should still be regarded highly.
All I know is my manlet, hobbit, midget, stumpy elf-ass being 180cm means I'm *probably* going to die alone. But thinking about it in more depth, I realized that if I can't get a woman on planet Earth to love me as I am because I'm too short for her (among minor other things, like ethnicity), then she wouldn't love me if I was actually tall enough, either. So in a way, the bitter painful truth is 'better' than a lie of false love.
If you're the kind of woman who I'd be completely dodging for being too short, then maybe the real "losers" are the men 183 cm and up, that women like you only go for.
Yes, very wrong to not date guys just because they are shorter than most. Especially when they are still taller than you. Plus the taller the guy is the more likely he is to cheat.
I'd tell her that she likely miss out on some great men, but whatever. She can go for whom she wants and if she complains about it I will not listen much or fell sorry for her.

Everyone has preferences, this is not to say that someone won’t come into your life and break the mould…
Wouldn’t right him off purely on height, how do you view him in terms of attraction overall? This is important, if the attraction level is too low this could and likely will become an issue later down the line.
I think nothing whatsoever, everyone can have whatever standard they want.
If those standards are too strict, the only person inconvenienced by it will be themselves, after all.
Those who do not meet that standard can just look elsewhere.
I have several "hypocritical" standards too, and I don't care either.
It's not wrong. People can have whatever preference they want. If I was interested in a woman, but she wasn't interested because I'm 5'7 I have no issue with it. Her loss and goodbye. I have no idea why guys get bothered by it.
It's kinda silly. You don't choose what you're attracted to, but you DO choose whenher you let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
A man should be a half-head taller than a woman, wanting a giant is an exaggeration.

It’s already expected that girls like guys at least 6ft. No different from guys who like big ass, tits, fit. It’s just an expected thing at this point. Guys obviously would never turn down a girl though if she didn’t meet the criteria unless she was obese/ugly. Some guys actually like obese girls. Luckily for you, girls have a much easier to choosing.
She can date whoever will date her. But that's a pretty silly reason for rejecting someone.
ha well I'm 170cm and I don't care. Whatever floats your boat.
It's entirely your prerogative what you choose to want.
Anyone can have any standered they want when it comes to dating
People are entitled to their preferences. There's no shame in that.
I only dated women I was physically attracted to. So sue me.
I'd say it's wrong, yeah, but only because it's superficial. Why would you want to base your relationship on something superficial like that?
I know it's silly but I can't help it, it's kind of stopping me because I've always dreamed of something different.
Often tall men like and may even prefer short girls. However, since, in the USA 5'4" (162.5 cm) is average height for women in the USA and since the average Asian woman's height is 5'2" she is not short and should be considered average height.
Short bish needs stepping stool to get stuff from onto refrigerator. Don't need to date a giant as make or break
Ur an inch below average he’s 2 inches below average. Why should an above average height guy date a below average height girl? Ur being incredibly shallow if u ask me. Have whatever expectations u want but I will fully judge u for being shallow about it.
Because there are many couples who are of large height differences. Many guys if not most also prefer shorter women.
Most taller guys prefer taller women especially if it’s for a relationship. Its easier to cuddle that way, and easier to talk to in public, a lot harder to hear someone who’s a lot shorter than and bending over constantly is a strain on your neck. They just feel like more of a peer and I can actually fit my whole dick in their mouth and vagina that way lol. Truth hurts sorry. But ur kinda being shallow af so I don’t mind tbh. Remind me of my 5’3” ex who said “I’m attractive enough to expect a guy be at least 5’10” yeah well apprantly that wasn’t true lmfao..
You're just hurt bcs of your ex. Guys around me date mostly below average height women.
Keep believing what u want. There’s actual data I’ve seen to show ur wrong. Short women widely believe this to be true but it’s not. Do a poll here asking taller guys if they like taller or shorter girls and I’d bet they will say taller.
Why don’t u look at what the tall guys on Reddit said www.reddit.com/.../
No. I'm 77in. Tall and I really am kind of turned off by women women over 67in.
a girl being small doesn't mean she's less attracted to men that are tall.
You might not meet someone that really loves you because you are being too picky.
If I was 5'7 and women would only date me because of that I would not date such a shallow woman
Its fine. You can have any preference you want.
