What’s wrong with short women liking tall men?

[Anonymous]

this taller girl said it’s weird for a short woman to have a height preference of tall men…. but i find taller men and women way more attractive and my type is athletes lol.

[ManOnFire]

Nothing wrong at all. It's very normal for short women to want and be attracted to tall men. Just like you have tall guys that like little women. I'm fine with both short and tall women although I do have a special love for tall ones.

[strateguy632]

the hypocrisy! she rejected short but expected not rejected for same reason. only tall lady isn't hypocrite for tall men.

[ManOnFire]

@strateguy632 Ehhhh... maybe.

[CuriousJC]

There is nothing wrong with short women like in tall men. That's just a discriminant stereotype to make people feel uncomfortable and only date people their height. Just like there's nothing wrong with tall women dating short men. I had 4 different midget girlfriends before and I've treated them like normal regular size women.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I like men who are taller than me. I am 160 cm. I don’t care much about a man’s height as long as he’s a bit taller than me, I can be attracted to him.

It’s tall men who like short girls as well. These days I have a date with a man who’s 6 ft 5 and he asked me out. I was just there living my life.

[cuteangelprincess]

It's not weird, it's a preference. You feel more feminine and protected with a taller man. My boyfriend is 6' and I'm 5'4 and I'm really content. Girls liking tall men is like boys liking big boobs, where is the issue? 🙏

[Asker]

it’s the same for taller women, i just find taller women way more attractive.

[Miristheiss]

Nothing.

And there is nothing with men liking (for long term relationships) women who are virgins and who have low body counts and women who dress modest and who've never done any sex work/Onlyfans.

It is 100% fine if a woman doesn't want a 5'5" man.

It is 100% ok if a man would never marry or make a girlfriend of some Onlyfans girl or a girl who has put out with many men.

[Berethor]

Almost all women want a tall man, big strong man have an alpha male body, so it's good.

Nothing at all , most girls in general love being with a man she feels safe and secure with that she looks up to , most girls’ love being submissive to a man she feels can protect her , Most guy’s love being with a girl that is submissive to him that he knows he will protect her at all cost as long as she looks up to him and stands by his side , Most girls do not want a short man , she doesn’t feel safe and protected by him

[Anonymous]

Who cares what one person says. I’m a tall girl (5’9”) and I don’t give a damn what short women like. It’s when they try to put their insecurities onto me that irritates me, like telling me a guy wouldn’t like me because I’m too tall (which is not the case) and that tall guys only like shorter women (which is also not the case) In fact all of my ex boyfriends have been over 6’3”.

[MyOwnMan2]

Ex boy FRIENDS? How many have you had at 25

[Opinion Owner]

@MyOwnMan2 First of all I’m 27 and how many I’ve had is none of your concern whoever you are.

[MyOwnMan2]

at what point do you think you'll have had too many to be worth dating seriously

[Mangospacho]

This is true about tall guys. Not all tall guys like extremely short women like people assume. It’s just more noticeable because of the height difference and then people assume it’s just the standard.

[Opinion Owner]

@MyOwnMan2 Some of you men on this site are seriously mentally ill. Why do you care?

[MyOwnMan2]

I'm not mental I'm asking you if you're self aware before it's too late. No one wants a girl who's had even close to a dozen exes

[Opinion Owner]

@MyOwnMan2 Again, why do you care?

[MyOwnMan2]

Why do you think people shouldn't care

[Opinion Owner]

@MyOwnMan2 You’re blocked. Goodbye.

[Asker]

5’9 isn’t that tall to me lol.

[Asker]

@Mangospacho i mean i’m short and i’ve only dated tall men so I don't know how true that is.

[Opinion Owner]

I’m 5’9” and I’m taller than most women, so yes I am tall.

And the point is, most men don’t specifically want a shorter woman. They date who they want. I’ve never had a guy say “you’re too tall for me” but plenty of short women say “guys don’t like tall girls” and it’s annoying and not true.

[Opinion Owner]

Also, keep in mind there are a lot more short women than tall women in society so naturally, men will date what’s readily available if it’s attractive to them.

I also think of it on how most men are not over 6’2”. Of course most women date men under 6’2” because that’s what’s readily available.

[Asker]

@OpinionOwner, the girl i like now is 6’4, so you being 5’9 isn’t that tall to me and doesn’t phase me plus, you gotta consider physical attractiveness and personality as well. are you saying tall men/women date me because i’m “what’s readily available”? people may just find short more attractive like they find tall more attractive. as women we should lift each other up and support each other instead of tearing each other down & saying people only find us attractive because we’re “readily available”.

[Opinion Owner]

It may not be tall “to you” but I’m 5’9” living a 5’9” life and I can tell you right now, I’m tall. Yes there is tall and exceptionally tall whatever but it doesn’t change the fact that I am tall for a woman as the national height for women is 5’4” I’m not going to debate you if you think I’m tall, but just know supermodels average a height of 5’9” and up. I’m also taller than 90% of women I encounter so.. yeah I’m tall.

Like I said, the only thing that annoys me is when shorter women instill jealousy and envy onto taller women in the form of attempting to make them feel insecure about their height. I am not tearing you down, I’m telling you exactly how it is. Women who are average and short are more readily available than taller women, but it’s a misconception that men as a WHOLE only like shorter women. You give a man an option between a short woman and a tall woman he’s not going to go for the shorter woman just because.. he’s going to go after the woman he’s more attracted to. Simple.

You’re telling me I’m tearing you down, but you’re trying to convince me of a point that isn’t fact, and even a man said it himself in the replies that men don’t usually have a specific preference for height, because they don’t. A height preference is as simple as a man liking blonde over brunette. But if the brunette is hotter.. he’ll probably go for the brunette. Just saying.

[Opinion Owner]

Also, the equivalent of you telling me I’m not tall because I’m not 6’4” (which by the way is beyond tall even for a man) is you telling me you’re 5’1” and short and I tell you that that’s not short, I know some people who are 4’5”. Like come on. Are you really debating if I’m tall or not?

[Anonymous]

I'll never understand women and thier petty war with eachother for men of height. Tall women who get mad at short girls for stealing the tall guys. And short women who deliberate date excessively tall guys to deny the tall girls. It's petty nonsense. I wouldn't want to date ANY woman that determined my value by my height.

[Asker]

there's 7 billion folks in the world.

[Mangospacho]

Yeah, I agree it’s been blown way out of proportion. There are some taller guys who date much shorter women but it is still the minority. I don’t have a height preference because I have dated both short and tall girls and height was never an issue.

[AnusNdaPainus]

Sons Will be too short

look at Baki

Yujiro / 6’3

Emi ( bakis mom ) / 5’5

Baki / 5’6 😑

and the other side of that coin is daughters being too tall because of the dad

and honestly fat girls have an easier time dating than tall women do

[cuteangelprincess]

my man coming with anime references HAHAHAHA

[AnusNdaPainus]

@cuteangelprincess because that always pissed me off about Baki how is your dad 6’3 but you are only 5’6 because of your short ass mom

[cuteangelprincess]

LOL ur right

[Twalli]

Maybe because tall women don't go for short men, so really that leaves short men alone. Now if it was just tall (er) that would be a different story. You can't tell me that it's completely normal for Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens to be together. He's more than a foot taller than her.

[AaronKrieger]

It's because it doesn't take a lot for the average guy to be a lot taller than you compared to a tall girl. You're allowed to like whatever you want despite that.

[Asker]

i mean my type is athletes, specifically basketball players. most of them are tall.

[AaronKrieger]

Your height is out of your control, but I hope you balance that out by being athletic yourself 😂. That's if it's a standard and not just a preference, so it's not one-sided.

[Asker]

i was an athlete and i go to the gym, most athletes especially basketball players are going to be tall. that’s reality. also, it’s never been an issue for me.

[Anonymous]

I don't see it as a problem.. On that same token women hate on men for having basic preferences.. All of which women can change.. Which would be to not be fat.. But we aren't allowed to hate on women how prefer men who are supper tall when it's not something we can change.

On that same token you also have to ask your self If you're actually worthy of the top 5% of men.. Cause literally only 5% of men are over 6 feet tall.. I'm one of em..

[Anonymous]

Every young girl typically likes tall athletic guys, it’s very common. There’s nothing wrong with it but I sense that above average height women (5’8” and up) feel like short women are dating men closer to an above average women’s height when most men are going to be taller than them anyways.

[Anonymous]

Yeah short guys are starting to get annoying af. They always have self esteem issues and are jealous of tall guys. I think I'm going to start dating only guys that are 6ft - 6ft4in

I'm 5ft 1in

I think the height difference is cute af

[Juxtapose]

I wish I had the luxury of being that picky.

[Juxtapose]

Before you accuse me of being short, I am taller than average.

[Opinion Owner]

@Juxtapose how tall are u?
Yeah the only way I would date a short guy is if he can prove that he doesn't have insecurities and isn't jealous of tall guys.

[Juxtapose]

5'10. National average is 5'9 haha xD

[Asker]

@Juxtapose lmao, the person i like now is 6’4 and my last ex was 6’0 also facial features and being physically attractive also helps.

[Asker]

@PrettyCrumblBb i’ve met many short guys that are like that. my roommates boyfriend was like that he was like 5’6-5’7 💀 and his insecurity radiated.

[Juxtapose]

Well yeah being attractive always helps.

[Kabluie]

I dated a 5'0 being 5'11 at the time now being 6'0, i never found it to be weird. I'm sure most of my partners have been in the 5'3-5'6 range. The 5'8+ less but I have no real preference. If I like you it won't matter.

[nastyb]

i think all women prefer tall women. i don't think its weird for short women to like tall men. but if she is 5 feet and he is 6'5'' then it does make things a bit awkward.

[Asker]

lmao the person i like now is 6’4. there’s nothing awkward about that and i’ve seen relationships like that and there’s nothing awkward about them lmao.

[nastyb]

@Asker

From my experience, anything over 1 feet apart makes things such as hugging, making out a lot harder. Things at the house would have to be put in the middle at a certain height in order for both of them to use it.

[Asker]

hugging is a lot better with a height difference actually lol

[nastyb]

@Asker

it might seem better at first but over time, it really takes a toll on you and him. He starts getting back pain from bending down to hug you. You start getting neck pain from straining to hug him.

[Asker]

i have height difference couples in my family…. that doesn’t happen

[nastyb]

@Asker

every couple has a height difference. the man is usually taller than the woman in vast majority of relationships. however,... when the height difference is too much... it leads to problems.

at some point, you will no longer want to hug him because your neck hurts and you're tired of reaching so high. and he will get tired of bending down to kiss you because his back is sore from bending over so much.

[beautyjoyfover200]

That tall girl is weird to even think that, everyone has their own preferences. It’s okay to like whatever you like

[Asker]

yea she is weird. i don’t care what she says i’m not dating a short man just because i’m short lol.

[Unit1]

I call them height diggers. It's like the only thing gluing these 2 together is literally the height of whoever has the penis. That's no different from big tits diggers: Men, who only date women with big tits.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

When it comes to liking someone you can like whoever you want & don’t let anyone tell you differently.

[strateguy632]

but see my reply here to man.

[rachel776]

i'm 5'3 and i have always liked tall guys but i've never turned down short guys if i like them

[Jazzy54]

That’s her opinion. That shouldn’t change yours. 😊

[Asker]

i could tell she was trying to talk me out of my preferences. i like athletes and i don’t know many basketball/football players that are under 5’9 lol

[Jazzy54]

Again, her opinion. Don’t let anyone change your opinion/preferences. 😊

[CubsterShura]

Nothing wrong with it. You like what you like.
