Like over the phone/social media? Um out of curiosity I asked my male co-worker how tall he was and said 5'7. I told him I was 5'4.. neither of us were upset about it.
Lol it certainly is... do you have any idea how many men would not date a woman that is taller than he is? lol You're not that tall so you probably don't.
How many % of women are as tall as you? Less than 1%, right?
Most American women's height is not a deal breaker. But most American women's weight is. Just take a look at stats. I mean there are way more overweight Americn women than extremely tall ones (your height)
I voted B because I think guys are more about such things. So I can understand why a woman doesn´t want to be asked about her weight since that could be really intimate to her.
Either it’s fair for both to ask or unfair for both to ask. Or, both could just stop playing the silly game and move on to things that are more important.
If a girl is cute enough, I like to respond with: "Depends on where you start measuring." Then I wink. If she laughs, it's a fun and flirty way to know she might be interested.
If I met a girl and she asked how tall I was, I'd find that pretty odd since she should be able to figure that out (pretty close anyway) just by looking at me. Do you mean if we met online?
@Ms_Facesitter If someone asks for my height (as you already know), they're looking for a reason to reject/pass me or not. She can ask me my height, but I'm not obliged to tell her. Likewise, I can ask her equally rude judgmental questions, and she's not obliged to answer them either.
No!!! How dare you? That’s so disrespectful lol no ask away that’s so ridiculous people getting offended by questions. Either they answer it or they don’t, no need for them to get mad about it.
I'm sorry ladies, but I believe that it is appropriate to ask what someone's height is Just as much as someone's weight. I don't see the issue, I need someone to help me understand why one could be worse than the other.
weight isn’t embarrassing/weird unless it comes up in conversation like” oh I lost a lot of of weight I used to be 300 lbs but now I’m 200” or “ive but on a lot of muscle while hitting the gym I’m on 200”
I think it should go both ways if your judgmental y’all should jump to say we are when we ask the same type of questions, we know what your doing, your no better you just hide your judgement Under a thicker sheet of adorable ignorance

I don't know, I think once you seem them in person, you can see if he's tall or short.
People ask me how tall I am alllll the time...…. is that inappropriate?
Why would it be inappropriate to ask a man how tall he is when asking a woman how tall she is no big deal?
Right. Why do women get bitter when they are asked how much they weigh?
Not all women do, and it depends on how it’s asked. Why is asking a woman how tall she is okay but not a man?
Because women's height is not a deal breaker

That's hypocritical...
Of whom?

I mean, it is fine, as long as you don't start judging him for his height, If she can ask about your height..
then so can you ask about her weight.
(I am not gonna be responsible if you are gonna get dumped for asking what's her weight)
I think it is absolutely normal...
I've been asked that many times without me being exceptionally tall either
it's not a big deal really, not to me anyway
quite funny how men dont think his height should matter YET they only date younger women. why shouldn't his height matter if her age matters?
That sounds about fair. The older a woman is should date the shorter a man is.

Yes.
Sure--it's fine to ask. I'd imagine most dating profiles probably even advertise it, no?
Yeah it don’t matter if the dude is offended then that’s his problem and means he’s got some Trauma to workout.
I see nothing wrong with the question itself, but you do tell him that you're shallow if you make a big deal out of it.
Bingo! Anything superficial... Making a big deal out of it is shallow.
@TheoPfeifle If I'd ask for someone's height, it would just be curiosity. You don't have to be tall, it's not important.
@Ms_Facesitter... As it should be.
I experienced the word shallow is used most often to shame someone to settle for less in a culture chasing 10% or more.

if you have a question, you can ask it... whether they answer or not is up to them.
Don't see that as any big deal where asking a person their weight is a bit more personal.
Why?
No!!! How dare you? That’s so disrespectful lol no ask away that’s so ridiculous people getting offended by questions. Either they answer it or they don’t, no need for them to get mad about it.
I can only speak for myself, you can ask me any question, and I mean any question. I won't be offended
i'd just stay from questions that you think are too personal or something they might be insecure about.

I get asked my height all the time too... cause in pictures I look taller than I really am.
