Does Height Matter? Ideal height for a partner?

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Yes

No

[SueShe]

Height has nothing to do with finding the right person. There are plenty of boys and girls that place much more importance on other qualities.

I would go anytime with a person that has a number of physical disadvantages but has a generous heart, an intellect that allows for deep, meaningful and sensible conversations and a personality that stands out of the crowd rather than with a guy that is obsessed with his physical appearance, the size of his penile appendage or his height.

What counts in life is what is inside this shell.

Inner beauty stays as long as the person lives while the outer shell is fading away with time and is just the shadow of what it was once.

To sum up: No, height does not matter because it says nothing about the real important qualities.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[SueShe]

5'7''

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Preferred height?

[SueShe]

Does not matter at all. 5' and and an excellent character, intellect and personality is so much better than 6'5 with a miserable attitude.

[Seinna]

Obviously it matters, but it's not a deal breaker.

I'm 5'5 so I'd be ok with someone who's just a little bit taller than me. I wouldn't want someone shorter but it might work under right circumstances. As for ideal... my husband is 6'1 so he's ideal for me? I think taller men are better looking but it is just one aspect of a person's physical attractiveness and that in itself is not the most important thing in a partner at the end of the day.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

So what if he’s your height?

[Seinna]

I'd be less physically attracted to him than if he were taller. What if a woman is overweight?

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

You wouldn’t date a guy your height? I would date a girl my height. What do you mean if a woman is overweight? What if a man is overweight? What if a man is underweight?

[Seinna]

I might. I even wrote that I might under the correct circumstances date someone shorter than me. He would be less physically attractive to me, but he might have some other qualities that would overshadow it. Being short for a man is like being overweight for a woman. Men generally prefer women who are fit while women are more lenient when it comes to body shape. On the other hand, women care more about height while men do not. So, would you (or maybe a typical man) date an overweight woman? Again, he might under right circumstances even if it's not exactly his preference.

[JHAYES317]

@Seinna how are taller men better looking? Height doesn’t make the face look any better

[JHAYES317]

@Seinna weight is changeable height is not so it’s not remotely comparable

[JHAYES317]

@Seinna so you’d be settling for him and he’d have to compensate? No guy wants to hear you find other men more attractive than them…

[Seinna]

@JHAYES317 Obviously, because good looks is not just face. Yes, weight is changeable but in most cases it's not going to change and neither is any man considering being with an overweight woman hoping she will lose the weight. So yes, in that particular example it is comparable. Yes, people (both men and women) are a combination of good and bad traits, both in looks and personality. The good need to overweight the bad. It's not that when you date someone you think that this person is suddenly more attractive than anyone else in the world... you just don't think about anyone else. But we're talking here about the potential of starting dating someone, not actually being in a relationship. I understand that I am not the most attractive woman in the world, but if someone choses to be with me, they accept me and don't think about other, more attractive women. It's the same for me when it comes to my partner. Other people's attractiveness don't matter at this point.

Height doesn't matter, nor should it. No such thing as an ideal height for a partner. You could meet the most beautiful tall person in the world, they could open their mouth and instantly you want to walk away.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[nolabels]

No, it's the person who matters, not the stature of the package in which they are contained.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[nolabels]

6' 2"

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Preferred height in a partner?

[nolabels]

See my original post.

[Abbycado]

I don't even know how many times I have seen this posted just today. No, it largely doesn't matter but obviously you are insecure if you have to make an account and ask.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Abbycado]

5'7"

[_Highway]

Abby are you crabby today, you've had some doozy replies LOL

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Preferred height in a partner?

[Abbycado]

@_Highway did you read my profile about being crabby? XD

@SuperSaiyanSlayer I just said it doesn't matter and then you ask that? Ffs...

[_Highway]

Of course I did, can't get to know someone if you don't even bother to look at their profile for basic info. ;)

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

No it doesn't really matter, I find that at my height guys are more intimidated by a taller woman and feel emasculated if they are shorter but I'd date someone shorter than me if they were good for me.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

5'10

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Do you like being that tall?

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

What’s your preferred height in a guy?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Not really. I wish I were closer to 5'4-5'6.

I don't really have a preference.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Why would you rather be 5’4-5’6? Wouldn’t you want to be 5’7-5’9?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

5'9 really isn't a difference. I've always been jealous of cute shorter girls tbh.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

What is there to be jealous of? What’s wrong with your height?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

It's just annoying to be taller. You get made fun of and clothes fit weirder.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

You get made fun of for being taller? By who? How old are you?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Not now but used to. I'm 45

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

You’re not tall enough to get made fun of. You’re only 5’10.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

*shrug* and yet it happened

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

5’10 is a pretty normal height for a guy. It’s tall for a girl, but it’s normal. It’s not like you’re over 6’0.

[Nikki1989]

Not even remotely. That is one of the things that men have been brainwashed into thinking means something to most women when it rarely does.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Gwendoline]

Just something very attractive to us women about a guy who's 6ft and over.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Gwendoline]

4ft10. Why?

[JHAYES317]

@gwendoline you’re 4’10”, you couldn’t even tell if a guy was 5’10” or 6’0” you just like the number 6 ft for the social status. Any guy 5’4”+ would look like they were babysitting you in comparison…

[Gwendoline]

@JHAYES317 no I like most women like tall masculine men.

[JHAYES317]

@gwendoline masculine yes. But tall = equal masculinity automatically

[Anonymous]

I hoped and trusted I would grow until 19 like my mom. I am now securely insecure about my height. I have a killer booty though.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[JHAYES317]

Here’s the thing…I don’t mind height mattering but it shouldn’t be a dealbreaker if the guy is only a couple inches shorter that’s what I find ridiculous

[NYlatefun]

I don’t really care except for extremes, lol

like a 6”3 or a 4”4 tall girl would be too much

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[NYlatefun]

6”1 or 185 cm

[Anonymous]

doesn't matter =/= shouldn't matter

I swear people keep misinterpreting this question all the time

[Anonymous]

It only matters if you care what superficial people think.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Anonymous]

Yes. My ideal height for a partner is 6ft. I prefer taller women.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Opinion Owner]

5'10

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

You like women taller than you?

[Opinion Owner]

Love it.

[Kingofkings1992]

No. I’ve been attracted to girls who are 5’0, and girls who are 6’4.

[avery58]

I want a guy that's at least average height

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

What’s average height?

[JHAYES317]

@avery58 why? Are you 5’9”?

[avery58]

@JHAYES317 No, why? Does that matter?

[JHAYES317]

@avery58 yes because if you aren’t around average male height yourself then it seems like you just view short men as societally inferior…

[avery58]

@JHAYES317 lol I don't have to explain my preferences to anyone. Guys always defend their preferences even if they like women who are younger than them, shorter than them, or a different race. Women are entitled to preferences as well.

[Smashingdoozy]

Don't care at all. I'm not a shallow bitch

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Smashingdoozy]

5 ft 3

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Do you wear heels?

[Smashingdoozy]

Sometimes, usually a boots or sneakers person though. Some are platform.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

What is a good height for a guy or a girl?

[Smashingdoozy]

Like I said. I don't care

[JHAYES317]

@Smashingdoozy so you’d date a dwarf?

[Smashingdoozy]

@JHAYES317 I would date someone who has dwarfism yes

[Nirmroth]

Not to small and not to tall or taller than me.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[Nirmroth]

5'11

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

Preferred height in a partner?

[Nirmroth]

Preffered would be 5'8-5'1

[Shortkay4568]

Taller than me at least

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]

How tall are you?

[JHAYES317]

@shortkay4568 why? Can’t stand to look down slightly?

[LiamJHayden]

Do not care.

[SuperSaiyanSlayer]
