Honestly I think height does matter to a lot of people. Not just females but to males as well. I think a lot of males are ok w her being as tall as him, but usually not taller. Because whether he admits it or not it does make him feel less of a man. Usually men are bigger, stronger, etc. We look at ourselves as protectors of our women. I think it’s just an instinctual thing. The same w women who usually prefer a man who is taller. They want to feel protected. Like he can pick her up in his arms, carry her. I tend to think shorter women have a better chance of meeting a man. Because again for one a lot of women want someone taller, stronger, bigger. Men tend to want the opposite because he can feel like her hero, bigger, stronger, her knight in shining armor. But if I was choosing between you or your friend I’d go w you. You’re cuter. If I’m being honest the one thing I like about taller women is when it comes to sex, when she’s taller you don’t have to bend down so much like you do w shorter women when you’re taking her from behind standing.
Height means very little to me in terms of physical attraction. I can be equally attracted to both short and tall girls. Both you and your friend are very attractive, so I guess it would come down to personality, character and general compatibility for which I would choose to date. If you’re worried about your height being an attraction issue for guys, it’s really not! I hope that helps you 🙂
That surprises me, but I guess people have different preferences. Height is not one for me. Yes, personality etc is equally if not more important for a lasting relationship, so that matters more to me. Just be the best version of yourself you can be and don’t worry so much about who is or is not attracted to your height - the right guy for you will be! 😊
Priorities: I want a tall woman so I can have Spartan sons hahaha.
Forgot to link you @Viola_456 ^^
5'5 isn't short, that's average. though anyways would say it's easier for shorter than taller women. because guys tend to want the girl to be shorter than them
Easier for short girls. I've been rejected for my height more than once 🧍♀️
5'11, same as you. I find I'm taller than 60-70% of guys on dating apps... somehow 💀
Yeah, I've only dated one guy before. We've got kinda an on-again-off-again thing, but we first dated in year 8 when he was much shorter than me. Now he's just over 6ft lol

Might be easier for the tall ones. Those of us who prefer them have an especially strong preference for them.
Height shouldn't matter, but unfortunately nowadays looks seem to matter more than ever. Everyone wants their dream person.
If I had to guess, I would say your shorter friend would probably have it easier because she is statistically smaller than most most, and that's what a lot of guys go for. You both look great, but the reality is more guys will want a smaller girlfriend than a taller one because it demasculinates them to a degree.
But then there's others who don't care.
Statistically, shorter is easier
It shouldn't matter. Because if women realized how little a woman's height mattered to the vast majority of guys she wouldn't give it a second thought.
However since it's been my experience women would rather be smaller rather than bigger I'd say taller women have it harder than smaller. Which I've never understood since most SUPERMODELS tend to be taller. It's also been my experience that most short women tend to be much more aggressive than thier taller counterparts. And the taller women tend to be more standoffish. Which is the actual more accurate reason it's been my experience that shorter women are more successful. Closed mouths don't get fed. But as with anything the bad also comes with the good. Because It's also been my experience that the shorter women tend to be most MANIPULATIVE and Distrustful.
I don't know who has it easier but if I was hypothetically single and could choose and both willing, I'm definitely going with the tall woman trained in BJJ. That just sounds totally awesome and badass. I'd want to learn BJJ too although I'd be at a beginner level and maybe she can teach me a bit and we can train together.
The way I always saw it with very formidable women who can best take care of themselves is that it's a bonus since, if I'm not around or dead and I love a woman, I want her to be able to take care of herself and not be helpless without me. So it's a total bonus to me if a woman is strong, able to defend herself, earns a living, mentally tough, etc, because if I love her I don't want to see her hurt, and I can't be around 24/7.
Cheers! My wife has some Judo training which I always liked.
Sometimes people make this about dom/sub type of thing like the guy must be taller than the woman and be physically dominant over her, but to me if we're striving to be the types of leaders who take care of others, then we want them to have leadership skills too. Like a squad leader would want followers who are also leaders and very tough in their own right, since they are to replace him/her if he/she dies.
So to me the idea that doms only match with subs doesn't make sense unless someone is the type of dom that just wants power over others. If we are instead motivated by a desire to protect others, then it's a bonus if those others are also capable of protecting themselves even if we are to be the leaders.
That just always seemed weird to me. Like would they only make friends with guys who are the same height or shorter, or physically weaker? Since that should emasculating the same way to not be the tallest or strongest guy in a friend group, e. g.
I think the idea of masculinity and also this idea of "alpha" these days is a bit off, like it wasn't typically the biggest and strongest brute who became chieftain of a tribe. It was typically the wisest, the diplomatic, the one who kept the tribe out of needless conflicts, and most of all, the one who made the well-being of the tribe his personal responsibility. Above all else, the leader as I see it is defined by his/her willingness to take ultimate responsibility over other people's well-being.
I actually care, like I think that's good. 🤝 It's a bonus to me. It's probably my one major physical bias is that I do prefer women who are strong and able to defend themselves. That and I also always favored women with very expressive faces and body language, since it makes it easier to understand how they feel and aids in communication.
I rely very heavily on body language. I actually like emojis even though some people think they're childish. 😁 I find it very difficult to communicate and read emotions over text without them! As for my height, I'm pretty short at 173cm (5'8). I'm slightly taller than most Japanese of my generation, but I feel pretty short when I go to other countries.
I'm half on my father's side; maybe half-smart. 😅 My mother is American.
I was thinking a bit about body language and I think one of the reasons I like expressive body language so much is that I grew up in a variety of countries (starting in Japan, but later Singapore, Hong Kong, and then various parts of the US). While trying to adapt to all these new countries and cultures and learn the languages, I came to rely very heavily on observing people's body language to help me at least figure out how they feel even if I might not understand half the words they said.
But also I think it's just more fun to talk to expressive and enthusiastic people. Like a great teacher in my view is not someone who looks and sounds like a robot with a very monotone voice. It's someone speaks very enthusiastic with animated body language. Their enthusiasm rubs off on me and I get excited learning about the subject.
I try to be. I tend to talk with my hands all the time, like this:
I have to do video meetings sometimes with my colleagues and I end up talking with my hands so much that I end up bumping the camera. 😁
I taught CompSci 101 & 102 in university just as a TA (but the professor just showed up a few times per semester). Initially I was boring the students to death since I was kind of robotic. Then I just started trying to practice and observe the most speakers and tried to mimic them a bit to help keep the students interested and not dozing off. 😅
ok, now I'm really curious what your shirt says?
@zeitgeist057 "My Stomach Clock Went Off". 😁 My wife got me that shirt as a silly one.
Height is one of those things that the vast majority of people really don’t care about. People date those they like not their height, hair colour, eye colour, skin colour etc. a lot of the time you do not even realise a girls height as you are sitting in a club or pub chatting n flirting and it’s only when you both go to leave you realise each other have legs or if you decide to dance.
To me it really doesn't matter about if a girl is taller than me or shorter. Just as long as they have a good personality I'm good and would give them a chance. You are already very attractive and you seem like you have a cool personality so you can get a date regardless of your height.
I think it's easier for short, but that means I have more tall girls to myself.
I don't mind at all. This may be stupid and it probably is 😳 but I always thought of it as a trophy fish. Like I caught the rare trophy fish. Another thing is that I love women and a tall woman is "More woman" to love. Not that she's more or less feminine than a shorter girl, but a short girl is cute. A tall girl is just the bigger version, just as beautiful, same feminine curves, but a bigger version of it.
It doesn't matter about Height. I think tall and short women have a hard time dating. I'm sure even guys have a hard time.
I've never chosen a woman by her Height. I've gone by eyes and smile first. That is what would make me approach a woman.
Depends. I'd say a women over 6'3 and women under 4'10 would both have a harder time than women between those two extremes.
Case in point. I think this young lady is very attractive, but many men would not date her would you date a woman who is 6'9?
For me height has no relevance, a woman has to please me as a whole, but if I am honest I have always had a preference for tall, physically strong women like you.
I would choose you to be honest.
Both are fine but not too short. So I'll say not your friend
As long as the common sense matches the height 😂


I believe it’s easier for short girls. Some guys are intimidated by tall girls, but no guy is intimidated by short girls.
You are both too young for me.
For women my age I'd say height doesn't really matter.
Not a 19 year old
I couldn't care less how tall a girl is. As long as she has a nice face, cute figure, character, moral compass I mesh with I'd be equally attracted to a 4'10" girl or a 6'5" girl.
Girl on the right clearly better looking, but maybe just a touch too tall for me. I'm 5'11, but if a girl that's 5'11 wears heels, forget about it lol. I'll look too short for her. .
I'm tall, so. tall women don't bother me. In fact if a woman was taller than me, I'd still. date her.
Look some dudes on here think I’m weird. I’m about your height. I’m a sucker for taller girls. Even like 6’5 to 7 foot tall. I can’t help it… Yeah some of them aren’t into shorter guys. Some are. Especially when I get caught looking.
Tall is obviously easier simple logistics, if both try to kiss the closer to the same height parrel the easier it is.
I’d probably date you because you’re really gorgeous and hot. Hold your hand, even if you’re a tall girl I’d love to make you feel girly still
Aww no worries. I wouldn’t mind doing something sweet like cuddling with you. As long as you feel real happy I’d be more than glad to take you out
I think shorter got it easier cause men expect that from a woman, unexpected height can take more time to adjust too unless someone specifically aims for tall women, it's all subjective tho of course
The giraffe needs a spanking. She looks like a naughty girl. 😂
No, I highly doubt that. 😉
Your friend is super cute, for sure, but knowing your activity level, it'd be you hands down.
Fine... but you have a longer stride... easier to keep up on those ruck marches :P
Male or female, height doesn't matter.
You are same height as me, and a man should be taller, so it's an easy choice for me. :)
Men are 5 inches taller on average so it's not normal when a woman is taller. :)
https://www.worlddata.info/average-bodyheight.php
I'd actually invite both...
I've done it before
You're both attractive, the height doesn't matter to me
I love ladies who are taller than me but honestly according to my observation most men prefer their women shorter than them so I think if a woman is taller than most of men dating must be a little bit difficult for her.
Way easier for short girl. Especially when the girl like dating taller guys
Neither of them is short, I consider a woman who is less than 161 centimeters tall to be short, I completely dislike short women and I would never consider having any type of relationship with a woman who is less than 161 centimeters tall.
I don’t know who has it easier. I don’t have much of a height preference myself. I am more attracted to the taller girl in this pic and would be more likely to approach her of the 2
Normally I go for short petite girls but I couldn’t say no to you. Too pretty and that body/butt is just too good to make height an issue. 😂😘
@Viola_456 I figured as much. Your friend is cute and definitely looks like she is in good shape but you’re just on another level
@Viola_456 what time are we working out today?
For most guys its shorter girls but in this case I just kinda like you better 🙃
You'd have to ask her to see my flex question ahahaha 👀😋😅👋🏻🙂 muscle 💪🏻
I know how I voted 😁
@Viola_456 I'd say for laughs, show her my picture or even pretend and say if she also thinks, no muscles? 🙃😛👀😁 Light hearted said. Ah well. I'm comfortable in my own skin and my soon to be retired 30s as in, the dating scene and looks scene is a 20s person game. Lol 😆😂
I'll enjoy 30 and 30s plus me continuing to be single, nerdy, solo, happy generous me 👀😛
Height does not matter unless you were 4 feet tall.
Your height doesn't matter, i'll invite whom i'll like more...
From the 1st sight, it means that i have to rely on physical looks only, well that's hard for me because i usually want to know the girl 1st before i invite her...
Anyways, if it has to be only according to looks, well i'll pick your friend, you're sexy and everything but she attracts me more!
But like i said before, i prefer to know the girl 1st, if i was attracted to your mindset more than be sure that i'll pick you no matter how much more beautiful and sexier than you she is!
You see, i'm not searching for a one night stand, i'm searching for someone who lasts forever = real marriage material!
First of all thanks and second i don't really care about physical looks that much, i prefer the internal beauty of a person, which means that she can be very beautiful but i'd still pick you over her because you might be more beautiful than her from inside and that's what counts because it lasts forever unlike physical traits...
Thanks miss @Viola_456 😊👍🏻
It depends on what the guy prefers. Some guys like tall girls, while other guys like shorter girls.
How is 5'5 short? According to statistics, the average female height worldwide is about 5'4-5'5
Compared to me it is 😅 but you're right she's not really short 😅
From Personal experience I do get hit on by Female shorter than I, not sure what they are attracted to apart from the usual.
To be it does not matter how tall you are. To me its all about personality. If you are rude then i dont care how beautiful or tall you are.
I don’t think it matters for girls. I don’t care for a girls height at all. But I know girls do prefer taller guys!
It doesn't matter if i have to choose one of you i would go with both of you
From what I’ve seen, short
It’s about the height. There’s social stigmas that society has agreed on.
Have I seen very attractive tall girls in my lifetime? Yeah. But all I did was look.
I’m not sure if you know what a stigma is.
Men don’t feel comfortable dating a girl taller than them (typically)
Personally I wouldn’t mind however due to how society views that particular image I rather avoid the bs.
But it’s also cause women typically want men to be taller than them. Including when they have heels on.
So a tall girl is typically a definite no just given that alone. And I know I’m not alone on that.
As do a lot of tall girls lol which is why it’s so ass backwards
I’m saying that even though girls typically prefer men taller than them.
Short girls typically always want this, were are tall girls are more likely to not care and in fact even date guys shorter than them.
I’ve yet to see a short girl date a shorter guy.
That’s true and not many are below that height.
My ex was that height actually
Not tall. 5’6
Possibly yeah. Honestly the reason why I just stare is because off the bat I assume every girl prefers guys taller than them.
I don’t give a shit about what others think about me. It’s just I rather not waste my time knowing how most women think.
Are you?
Sounds ambitious
Should I just dm you?
Why do you think short girls would have it easier or harder?
Well u ofcourse look hotter… but i guess i’d be ok to date any of u
Definitely you. I love climbing mountains :P
Your friend looks like someone I went to school with.
I guess probably for short, as a lot of guys might be intimidated by tall girls unless they're like 6' something.
It's not a matter of height. It's a matter of which one you like, that's it.
I have always been attracted to short women.
Women have it on easy mode. Any woman even if she's tall can get some men looking her way
I'd say for petite girls with a dramatic hip-to-waist ratio and big natural boobs.
Given the two girls in the picture, I'd go for the one on the right because I'm more drawn to that body shape. They heights don't matter.
I would like to date your friend. She is beautiful 😍. Is she wifey material?
It's easier for short girls
I don't think height matters too much
its easier for beautiful girls
Height doesn't matter to me much :D
Wbu?
It's not foreign to me when a girl has a said that she prefers smaller guys. For a fact, my last girlfriend was the same height as you (5'11) and I'm 5'9. It's all a matter of preference :D
I have been lucky enough to try out different kinds of relationships. Been with a girl younger than me and 2 being older than me as well. The last was happened to be taller, one of them was short and the last one being about the same height as me :D
Tall girls are lovely 😊
No, it'd rather look hot and sexy! :D
so far its easier for short girls
I’m not that tall and I’m always asked
Easier for short girls
