+1 yYes and yes I believe they always matter. Not looks as much as functionality. Sex is vital to all relationships. But foods and everything we typically consume has been infused with many many variety of different ways to ruin all of your naturals. Hormones and ability to emote and love are all cognitive happening in the brain. But it needs the juices to flow. Health is extremely important for being able to love the fullest. Height can be determined by many things including lack of sleep, which in turn can make others not feel short men are equipped mentally of physically to love as much as they need. See big strong teddy bear guy types and every fricken person in the room wants them. See fit clean and down to earth motherly, caring women and every man in the room wants her. For good reasoning, we naturally desire the best, most capable and caring mentally and physically. We are meant to have balance with our chubness. Healthy is a bit chubby. Also being muscled up shows dedication amongst other positives of increased brains. To be smart, gymed up, as well as patient and kind is and should be the goals of all for a peak performance in life. However we aren't all perfect so it's good to find others can help with our problems. Tbh I think too many people give in to just sexing up straddling the playing field rather than focusing on what really benefits them. To see a world, government and society who actually gave a shit about each other. Money and suits. I pray to see a day where we all ark over to the moon or wherever amd see all the billionaires in their private space ships be shut down mid flight because some fairly good mastermind knows they hold no value and only continue the bullshit money system that kill the planet to begin with.
Oh yeah, this was just about height and weight my bad!

+1 yOF COURSE a woman's weight matters. I've never been attracted to fat broads.

I feel that height isn't that big of a deal for me. I am 5'3 and have no signs of growing anymore; so almost every guy is taller than me. My opinion may be biased because of my height, but as long as the guy is just a bit taller than me like 2 inches taller than me is fine. Although girls say they want someone over 6ft, I feel like that a bit too tall. So if you are interested in a girl who is short and are worried she may want to you to be taller I am sure it is fine, most short girls don't want a super tall man. It looks weird in pictures.

+1 yI dated a guy that was about three inches shorter than me, it didn’t bother me but it bothered him. One time we were going to meet at a house party and when he walked in, I walked over to give him a hug and he started yelling at me. “Don’t you ever hug me like that in front of people! You make feel like a child”! We didn’t last long after, because he would always make comments similar to that. Now, I prefer men taller. They don’t have to be giant but taller.

I know. I can understand it but he didn’t need to yell at me. I honestly think that had a lot to do with me preferring taller guys. I’m 5’9”ish, so in school there were plenty of guys I liked that were shorter than me and I didn’t mind and they didn’t mind, but later in life it seemed it became a problem. Luckily there are plenty my height and taller. My boyfriend is 6’3”.

@Beckybooboo I mean maybe he subconsciously knew that you preferred men taller than you…and considering you are dating a guy a half foot taller than you that seems to be the case…no guy wants to feel like you settled for them
- +1 y
@JHAYES317 I didn’t prefer any height at that time. I liked him and didn’t even think of him being short as a problem, it was him that had the problem. I said, I think it was him having such a problem with it, that made me prefer a guy a little taller than me. Mainly, because I didn’t wanna go through that again. He was a great guy and I can totally understand if he felt awkward at times but he didn’t need to be mean about it.
- +1 y
@Beckybooboo well that’s my point. That was one guy who had that issue…it’s not like a pattern where you dated several men shorter than you who all did that…so it kinda just seems like an excuse to justify wanting taller guys…

16.6K opinions shared on Dating topic. Weight does matter if she's unhealthy- mostly being obese, but also anorexic. Besides the health problems associated with obesity, an obese women isn't going to want to exercise with me or do a lot of outdoor activities, and those are important to me.

+1 yA woman's weight only matters if she is grossly overweight, which is a sign that she doesn't take care of herself.
20 Reply 1.8K opinions shared on Dating topic. It isn’t really a fair comparison. A fat slob can go on a diet and lose weight. A short man can’t do anything about his height.
They both matter though. Taller people are generally more attractive than short people. So it is understandable that women want a tall partner. A tall guy is very useful in life. He can reach high places, naturally gets more respect and will be a better physical protector. A short man just can’t really match that at all. Just the way it is.
But there is no excuse for a fat woman. So the comparison isn’t fair.
20 ReplyA woman's weight does and does not matter. My issue is more on the health side of things not the appearance. In lieu of health complications, weight is a manageable thing. People have control of it. Weight is also correlated to health. So my underlining concern would be are they a healthy individual? Do they care about their health? Which correlates to how much an individual values themselves and their self worth. An individual now understanding their value or worth is a world of trouble. I think this same concept applies to men and their fitness or lack thereof as well.
Regarding a mans height, he has zero control of how tall or short he will grow in life. So a person's weight and a person's height is really not a great comparison for conversation.01 Reply- +1 y
Would you want a 300+ pound broad? I SURE THE H**L WOULDN'T!!!
A woman's weight probably does more to determine her attractiveness than any other single factor. Too much weight can make a woman who would have been beautiful ugly. Meanwhile, a very skinny woman with a fairly unattractive face is still... kinda hot.
There are obviously limits to just how light/skinny you can go before it starts to be a problem, but it's definitely true that the lower limit is significantly below where probably 95%+ of women are.
10 Reply981 opinions shared on Dating topic. I think both genders should take care of themselves and be healthy I don't see how that's controversial. I'm 6'3'' so I've never had this height issue bbut in the end everyone can make their own decisions. I just think if you're too close minded it's not a great way to find someone you truly connect with mentally.

+1 yAny woman who expects a man to be 6'0 tall suffers from what I like to call "dumb bitch syndrome". Unless she's around that height herself, she has no business getting picky over dumb shit like that. If you're a female around 5'5, you can settle for someone an inch or 2 taller. And yes, weight does matter to me. I don't want no fat bitches.
10 ReplyAs long as she is not taller than me I don't care. I'm traditional so I would not enjoy being shorter than a girl. I be happy with my height to any height shorter. Lucky for me I'm 6' so not many girls are taller.

🤣🤣🤣 oh that's my favorite. Got my wife a stool so she can use that if she really made then she can be on my height. So great watching her march into the kitchen come back with a little stool and stand on it.
I’m 6’2 but when women say shit like they only date guys who are 6 feet plus I lose interest, there is more to a man than his height, it’s like when guys say stuff like they’d only want to date blondes etc.

@JHAYES317 height is permanent so it makes sense to reject over it 🤷♀️ I personally wouldn't tho.
And nah I just could never be with a guy that thought like that. He should love me at any weight - +1 y
@Apple1996 no it doesn’t because it’s out of someone’s control. It’s a lot more superficial to reject someone for something they can’t control than something they can. I’d rather be rejected for being too poor than for being too short for example. And no because fat women are unhealthy…a guy shouldn’t love you if you are killing yourself…
- +1 y
@JHAYES317 fat doesn't always mean unhealthy. And I swear men lack so much logic sometimes. Obviously weight is gonna change overtime either up or down. If your gonna be with someone long term you have to accept seeing them at all weights.
Height is something that can be noticed right away and doesn't need to be accepted as something that changes so it's reasonable to not be with a person over that - +1 y
@JHAYES317 and a man should love you even then. Why wouldn't he?

@JHAYES317 you probably should never be with someone then lol cause addictions can come out of no where. I stayed with my husband even tho he's a alcoholic. It doesn't stop my love for him. I've learned asking him to stop makes things worse and it's best just to be a support system
