Why are some men intimidated by taller women or don’t like taller women?

[JanetMaree]

I’m 5’10.5 and I always hear that man prefer shorter women even when they’re tall. Are men intimidated by taller women. Or just not attracted to us?

[Berethor]

Because men are 5 inches taller than women in average, so being big is a masculine trait.

Neither. Taller women got that awkward energy. I'm 6'5" and I don't care if she's 5' or 7' tall. But if height or lack thereof is an issue for you then I don't want to know you. Because height or lack thereof does not determine a person's quality. If I choose disproportionately shorter women it's only because shorter women choose me, put forth effort towards me etc.

There are many men that like tall women. But maybe they assume they would prefer tall men if they aren't tall themselves.

But im short (ish) so I don't know.

[Berethor]

Most women prefer tall men, and they right about that, tall men are masculine.

[Spongebobssocks]

@Berethor yes ofcource but was refering to tall wome being wanted

[Berethor]

@Spongebobssocks tell women better look for taller men, man should be taller.

[Spongebobssocks]

@Berethor the avarage man is taller than the avarage woman already lol:)

[Berethor]

@Spongebobssocks I know, that why a short man look like child and/or woman.

[Spongebobssocks]

@Berethor no they don't. No need to hate on short men. They are men too. But most women will look for taller men

[Dom_Raechal]

Only submissive men would be around taller and stronger women 🤣

[Berethor]

True, it looks so odd when a man is shorter than a woman, he look like child.

[DarkWinterNights]

Maybe it makes them feel less masculine if they’re shorter. I really don’t care much about height. I’m 5’11” but if given the option I’d probably prefer a girl around my height.

[Berethor]

A man should be taller than a woman, otherwise he look like child or woman.

[lildkman1090]

I think a taller woman is sexy and beautiful if you ask me

[JCT666]

Most likely because taller women are generally not open to dating men shorter or even the same height as them.

[Berethor]

And they right, a man who is same height as is like a woman, not man.

[LiamJHayden]

People like what they like. I do not care. The tallest girl I dated was 6'1.5, about 0.5" shorter than I am. The shortest was around 4'10

I don't like very tall women who are taller than 175 centimeters, but I also don't like dwarf women who are less than 161 centimeters.

But between a 175 centimeter woman and a 161 centimeter woman I choose the 175 centimeter woman.

[Berethor]

How tall are you Anonymous? a man should be at least 5 inches taller than a woman.

[Opinion Owner]

At least? HAHAHAHA, 12 centimeters is my limit, if she is more than 12 centimeters shorter than me, the children will be dwarfs.

[Berethor]

Men on average 5 inches taller than a woman, that's why it's the minimum needed.

[Opinion Owner]

No thanks, I don't want my kids to be dwarfs.

[DerekC321]

Guys who are shorter think that women who are taller then them won't like them.

[Berethor]

They right to think so, most women prefer big strong men, not childlike males.

No and no.
