I'm a tall woman so I can sometimes be limited in dating the taller guy. I had a relationship with a shorter guy for all the guys going, "women never date shorter men,"...uh, I did, and I have. He unfortunately had a complex about it because his friendship group and family made fun of him a lot and it eventually got to him and we broke up. I do prefer a taller guy. I am honest about that. My last boyfriend was 6'6. I loved when we'd walk into a room together and get all the stares--I always felt so powerful next to him and like my height wasn't so glaringly obvious.

Everyone's got preference and or taste. Personally I don't. But others would. It's a matter of preference of comfortability

  It's rare because guys are in average taller then girls, that's why short guys look unmasculine.

It looks bad, a man should be at least half-head taller than the woman that he dates.

Why would it not be? You're a person, not an amusement park ride. You can handle short people.

Of course. Yes, most women are going to be more attracted to taller men, just like men are more attracted to younger women. But attraction isn't everything, and even within that framework, the value placed on it- how MUCH s/he cares- is going to vary. For some, it's vital, for some, it's a nice-to-have, some don't care. If you're happy together, that's all that matters.

Yes it's okay... many girls date guys their height or a little shorter... there's also really tall women (6 ft and up ) who absolutely go for shorter guys because it's gonna be less judgmental considering she's already so tall... but it doesn't happen much... most guys would feel emasculated if their girl is taller than them and you can't blame them... it's natural

Dude. That woman in the Pic got some Sideshow Bob feet. Are you sure it's he's short and she's not just a beanpole?

No.. it. makes the guy look like a wimp and less masculine.. short guys need to find a island to live on and leave the dating world alone...

  Because if 2 consenting adults want to date each other they can. No matter how high off the ground either of them is. It doesn’t impose on anyone else’s rights
