Girls would you say its generally true most of you prefer tall-er guys and not so much ‘tall’ guys?

Question

I'll let guys answer so we can compare answers lol

anyways what i mean is whenever i see girls list their physical standards they like in a guy one of them is usually 'i like the guy to be taller than me'.

so that is 'taller' which is not the same as 'tall'. therefore if she's like 5'1 and the guy is 5'4 he's good.

Would you say this is generally the case with most women?

Definitely not a deal breaker if he’s not 6 foot! My crush is like 5”2 or 5”3, most girls would think that’s “short” but I’m not picky about height with men, never have been. There are still girls who don’t obsess over height I promise.

Unless a guy is 12 feet tall with a 24 inch dick and making $250K a month I’m not interested.

Guy13 · Answer

Most enjoy 6’2 and taller. 4-5 inch heels 👠 and lean head slightly upwards to kiss.

It's true most girls want a guy to be taller than them, but it's also true that they prefer the guy to be taller vs. shorter. That is to say, if a 5'1" girl has two guys who are in all respects the same but one of them is 5'8" and the other is 5'10", she's more likely to go for the 5'10" guy. And it follows she's even more likely to go for the 6'0" over both of those. I think there is some cap waaaaaaay up there like a 5'1" girl might decide a guy that is 6'4" is just "too tall", but I think the tolerance goes much farther for tall guys than short guys.

I would even hypothesize a 5'0" girl could find a 5'4" guy to be 'too short', even though he's several inches taller than she is.

Of course, not all girls are going to think the exact same way, and I honestly think short guys obsess over their own height much more than girls care about it. If there was a correlation, it would be like flat chested girls who stress about having flat chest or smaller boobs when really okay, maybe a lot of guys prefer a healthy handful, but it's not really a dealbreaker if the rest of the girl is amazing it's not even a consideration.

For some women - that is the case, I know plenty of them.

My biggest issues with most of the shorter guys I've encountered - is their own insecurities about being shorter. Myself, I don't care if my partner is shorter or taller than me - my late fiance was shorter than me.

melanieeeB · Answer

Yeah overall it is.
I myself as a minion (153 cm, guess 5'0-'1) wouldn't prefer to date someone tall. Ideally I like a man around 165 - 175 cm (Guess that's 5'5-5'7ish).

Fun side story: I was once meeting up with a man and we hadn't talked about height before and he was like 190cm-ish (I guess 6'1ish) and we both looked at each other, started laughing and both agreed this isn't going to work alone for the height difference. I was too short for him and he was too tall. We still had dinner and a fun night as friends, talking about stupid date experiences and afterwards never saw each other again haha

CubsterShura · Answer

Yes, taller guys are preferred. Most guys already are given that I'm 5'2". I'd say my ideal height range is between 5'7" and 5'9", but I've definitely been with guys outside of that height range, in fact I have dated only one person in that height range lol, others have been taller or shorter than that.

ariadneR · Answer

SO long as they're taller than me.  My boyfriend is a ft taller than me. But I didn't decide to date him because of hs height. It was because of his personality

Juneberry91 · Answer

For me I find that when someone asks a question “ What’s your type” we construct a list base on fantasy. Love is the most unpredictable force out there. So it doesn’t matter if a person says he has to be 6ft & up, blue or brown eyes because love strikes & catches you off guard. Hight does not matter, hight does not do anything other then I feel smaller & one can reach things better but what matters is his He’s a good man that loves & is fair.

AmyHew1tt · Answer

Yes, as a five"4 woman, as long as a guy is at least a few inches taller than me, that's all fine. Literally, the only cute guy I've seen around where I live is about 5"8, 5"10 at most, but he takes good care of himself and is more attractive to me than lots of the 6"+ dudes.

menina · Answer

If you had asked me this question 2 years ago, my answer would be B. However, I'm trying to be more flexible when it comes to a man's height, so I would prefer him to be taller than me. It's hard to find a guy shorter than me 😂

I guess that most women prefer tall men, not just taller.

Jemini_Crocket · Answer

I don't know where I fall into. Voted option A but I guess I should have went for option B.

I need a nice height difference when dating someone. I'm 5'2 or 158cm tall, that's quite short especially in my country, the average for women here is 168cm and for men 180cm. I prefer my man to be between 175-195cm tall with 180 being the ideal, most comfortable option too.

I don't think it makes me picky because it's the average height for men here.

rienna888 · Answer

Yes it’s true, I know as a teen I liked medium height guys not too tall, just has to be taller than me. But as an adult now I love tall men. But it really depends how proportionate he is. Four years ago I dated this man I loved and he was around 5’9 not too too tall but he had a great built.

AnusNdaPainus · Answer

The type of woman who wouldn’t date you for your height is not a woman that you should be with

Plus taller guys have a lot of problems too a lot of them can’t dance , they have back and knee issues, it’s harder for them to fight smaller people, their life expectancy is shorter , and if you’re a tall guy you have to have a big wang or else you look weird naked

DarkLegacy · Answer

On your update, i have noticed that the comments from women do not match the poll results. Perhaps the site is behind this as i fail to see how someone could have so many email accounts and be able to set up so many accounts.

I have noticed that other polls similar to this also have a exceptional high number of votes in comparison to other polls

CateM · Answer

I think average height is best. I wouldn't mind being taller than him, but most guys are taller than me

ElGato31 · Answer

I'm 5"7. If the guy is 5"8-9, I'm already happy as long as they are not very skinny. I don't want to look bigger than them.

But generally, height-wise, 3-4 inch taller is perfect.

It's not a deciding factor though.

sunflower00 · Answer

Yes I personally prefer guys to just be taller than me, height isn’t a deal breaker though so I would date someone shorter. I would also date tall guys (I’m 5’4 and my boyfriend is 6’3/4) but generally my type has always been guys around 5’5 - 5’10

Koneko911 · Answer

I like tall... like tall... but I'm 4'8... so I need someone who can reach the top shelf so my tiny ass can survive

LovingJo · Answer

Yes, I prefer them to be taller than me, but it's difficult sometimes, seeing as I'm 5'11 😂🙄

PBandJ_Nerd · Answer

I'm 4'9 myself so I'd want a guy to be around the same height as me. Him being tall isn't a requirement, but if he so happens to be, then I shouldn't complain (since that'd be too picky).

I haven't voted yet, but let me guess. The BOYS voted Fuck yeah it matters and the GALS voted that it isn't important?
