Should men who are under 5'9 just exit the dating world altogether?

[cheetocandle]

yes

no

other let me explain

[Paulalove98]

Nope.. I’m not picky unlike other girls my age or most women in general care so much about this “height” thing. I’ve dated and been in relationships with guys who were 5”5-5”8 before and i still found them attractive and tall enough for me, I’m also 4”11. This honestly didn’t become a huge deal till people started making it one and following this trend for real😂 my point is there is someone for everyone and I don’t need a guy to be 6ft to be attractive or datable. It’s hard enough finding a loyal guy these days, let alone having picky standards makes it harder! I’ve attracted men who were 6 ft too before but it’s not a requirement to me.

[driven159]

I have always thought women around 5 feet were sexier than 6 footers its funny I have dated all heights and the ones that were taller than me they were the ones that had issues with it not me

[Paulalove98]

@driven159 Yeah I’m 4”11, I don't know I guess I’m different than some girls I just don’t think height is a big deal.. I care more for a man’s character, personal hygiene, style and over course personality overall more than height, or course I’d prefer a guy who takes care of himself too and not a guy who’s obese but I could settle with an average weight or chubby guy also.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Nope. Why?

After all, It’s mostly mother’s height that decides the offspring’s potential height. Does that mean all girls under 170 CM should just disappear?

My aunt is 177 CM, uncle was 165 CM and their daughters are 180 CM.

So, I’d say shorter men should work on their confidence and should date taller women.

[cheetocandle]

should they work on their confidence and stay out of the dating pool until they stop complaining they are too short?

[abc3643]

@cheetocandle
Yep!

[NatalieKeller95]

why can't shorter men date anyone shorter than them, what if they're not attracted to taller women?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

@NatalieKeller95 They can and they should if that’s what they want. It’s just I’ve heard lots of worries about the height and I gave the advice to solve that - according to my knowledge in genetics and evolutionary studies. As I am pretty good at both.

I’ve also given the advice of being confident plenty of times.

[mommymommymommy]

@NatalieKeller95 One of the tallest women I know, stacy keibler, ex cheerleader, ex wwe diva, ex actress basically ex business woman, essentially, married a man, jared pobre, who's shorter than her. She's 5'10" or 5'11" I forget, and has 41 1/2" legs. Yep, very long legs. He's a millionaire, so that sort of helps him. They had three kids together, and are married, living in wyoming, off the grid basically, at this point, even though she wanted to be an actress

I'm 5 ft 8 and I have never been turned down on the basis of my height. My former wife was 5"9 and she didn't appear to have an issue with it. I also dated two other woman that were taller than I was for long periods.

I think the type of person you are far outweighs the height issue. No doubt there are women out there that would not date a guy under 6 ft, but that's their choice. Just like some guys choose not to get involved with strongly opinionated women. It's all part of that freedom of choice thing.

[OfMiceandMen]

Cheers.🙌

[abc3643]

Don't be an idiot.

It's very unbecoming.

Let's think this through...

There are lots of men under 5' 9" tall.

Why?

Because women previously mated with men who were under 5' 9" tall; if they didn't, then eventually there'd be no men under 5' 9" tall. That's how evolution works.

So, while some women may prefer men at least that tall, plenty of women are fine with men shorter than that... They have been for about 2 million years.

[Guy13]

You tell me... are you tired of the short boys?

[cheetocandle]

Just curious to see what the short kings have to say.

[Guy13]

LOL... no doubt. I just got this horrible image, thank you very much. Let's say child safety seat was involved and high chairs... Oh my-

[Avicenna]

If that were to happen a lot if women wouldn’t have a man to themselves or maybe not one at all

[WonderBell99]

No, I've found men of average height attractive. A person's worth should not be measured based on their height, but their personality and values.

[Sour-rose]

Well no, if they're a horny mortal, I don't know why you wanna quit because you quit on ya self. Hell, I'm just as short but... well taller than other non-american ladies but still shorter than the average man... and other women. Sitll ain't gonna drop out because a bish is taller than me.

[abbyjgriffin98]

No. One, short folks have every right to date as tall folks and two, I am only 4'10" so people under 5'9" would be a much better height for me and would look more natural in a relationship. That's not to say I don't like tall guys or am settling for short guys. I think there has to be substance in any relationship. It should not just revolve around a person's height.

[jshm2]

Exactly what the fuck has height to do with anything, unless you're insecure?

Seriously, I've dated taller girls, shorter girls, it's not height that is the problem. Rather, it's the size of ego, and the insecurity hanging off it's coat tails.

[cheetocandle]

whoa whoa language sir. No need to be upset because you are short. You can work on your confidence.

[TJ1892]

I mean you are pretty offensive.

[Bricealan]

Yes, I agree completely, in fact I think all men under 5'9 should be sent to the salt mines in Siberia!

[cheetocandle]

let's put it on the next school levy hidden under a bunch of stuff the schools already don't need

[Bricealan]

I'll start work on it now!!!

[NatalieKeller95]

tall people aren't the master race, y'all think because you're over 6 ft, y'all are demigods or something, you're literally equal to the rest of the shit called the human race, get over yourself

[Bricealan]

@NatalieKeller95 Natalie, Natalie, Natalie, don't you KNOW when someone is jerking your chain? Her question was deliberately a "tongue in cheek" question, not intended to offend anyone. I am not tall, as a matter of fact, I'm 5' 8" Relax, she meant no harm!

[Lionman95]

No because they still have the chance to find a woman. Women and men had an easier time dating if they didn´t argue about such bs. How do you know he couldn´t find a partner to date if he´s a great guy besides that? Sure there are guys that are miserable but there are also tall guys that are miserable.
Besides that how many guys are 5"9 or taller? Since many women are smaller than that I don´t see a reason.

[lightbulb27]

I did, I got married.

It's more about who he is. If a woman is stuck on height it's ok, no big deal. there are some who are more flexible.

The more towards the extremes of average height, the more difficult it probably is.

The biggest difference is that "thing"... you know... the one ontop the shoulders.

[ShadezMcgee]

Interesting. I have landed some knockouts at 5'8", so no. May not stand out physically, but I make up for it in many other qualities that draw good women.

Hell, keeps superficial chicks away, so that is doing me a favor. Either way, I win. So no, they shouldn't, and tall chicks who take issue can suck it.

[Anonymous]

What the fcuk 😧 Gurl? What’s the back drop of this question, it needs more information for a complete response. Face value, tall or short guys, are simply a thing and is a individual preference.
Tall guys are lanky, clumsy, snor horribly, quiet in the bad way, and have a tall guy who simply off the fact they’re tall.
Short guys are thorough with many aspects in their lives, tidy, make better coffee, and explain themselves really well during communicating. They’re shy based off the fact their short so it makes them very cute.


However, this is my opinion because your question is too brief.

[Fromdusktilldawn]

well I'm just 5 4 but honestly I have other reason I avoid the modern women: feminism, corrupted by tiktok and instagram ideals, self entitled, expectations are sky high, gold digger, shallow and short minded, no respect and treat you like a tool.

[sheenagwapa]

western standard is tough. i had crushies who are short and some are tall. i had a crush on the husband of my sister's friend and he is a short guy. i think it's how yoy carry yourself that matters. confidence is attractive

[boggboss]

Nope got a partner and I'm 5"8 so thinks are going fine

[exitseven]

I read a lot on this site about how shorter guys have trouble getting dates. I do not remember height being such a determining factor. I knew plenty of short guys that had no trouble getting dates. My father was 5'9" and he was married twice.

[TheUniqueOne96]

Yes (!)

They should join all the single mothers and buffaloes who think they have a shot at compete with the attractive women for men that are actually desired.

[KittyKat90210]

Um.. of course not. I'd much rather be with a shorter great guy than a taller idiot. Their height makes no difference.

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

What is your definition of a short guy

[slatyb]

5'9 is slightly taller than average in the US. I know plenty of men under 5'9" with lovely partners. I'm one of them.

[Anonymous]

What if your son you give birth to in the future has his uncle aunt whoever in the family (bloodline can trick you) and looks like them? 5’5 right there in front of you
Don’t shame god creations it can come back to you
Trust me

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

God does not exist to begin with

[abc3643]

@CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS Yes he does!
Haven't you ever heard of "Black Jesus"?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiSdb16N_Dg

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

Yes Jesus was black actually

[Truthatanycost]

I already did so but not for those reasons. I'm 5'7 and have never considered that short or a problem, I think it's the perfect height.
