I think most women over 6' have come to terms with their guy possibly being shorter than than (I'm only 5'10" and have)
My family grows 'em tall. My baby brother is 6'5" and has pretty explicitly said he doesn't want to date somebody under 5'7" or so because he feels like too much of a giant.
I don't want my guy to by shorter than 5'8" so *I* don't feel like a giant,
No opinion on the opposite is 'weird'. Different shapes and sizes exist, so it only makes sense that people would then have preferences for different shapes and sizes.

Well I'm 5'11 and have gone out with guys between 5'6 and 6'1...kinda weird I guess for a tall girl but I prefer them either shorter or around my height. Even the 6'1 guy I was taller than in heels. So no I don't think there is anything wrong with the fact you're attracted to tall girls. As for me, I like the feel of his hand around my waist with my hands on his shoulders.
No thing wrong with your being attractive to tall women. That is your preference, it is what makes you the person that you are. We are all have individual likes and dislikes.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I like girls that are tallish, but not too tall. Around 5'9. I don't really get why short girls here insist everyone wants them, I don't notice that in real life. If anything, I notice the opposite. Many guys end up with short girls, but that's because they are common. Tall girls are not easy to find, they are like green eyed people - rare and unique.
Anyway, you like what you like, go after the tall girls and enjoy! Good luck!
Where I live (a small European country) everyone thinks tall girls are the best. Short is generally considered ugly. I've never even dated shorter than 5'7.
I know short girls will now say that research has shown men prefer short girls, but that's untrue. Research has shown that shorter girls are more likely to get married, but that's because they have more options, given that girls usually go for men taller than them. So it's about girls' preferences, not guys'.

I think it's cool that you like tall girls. You are actually one of the few men that like tall girls. Most guys like really short girls they refer to as "fun-size".
I really dislike seeing tall guys with really short girls which is probably out of resentment because I am tall 5"8.8 and all the tall guys I know are taken by some girls who are barely above 5 feet.
Be you and love who you want to love. If your friends make you feel insecure and you would rather please your friends than yourself then date shorter girls. At the end of the day it's all about you.
Do you think they would give up a quality they like in a girl because of you? Think about it.to be a model you need to be over 5'8'', even more for runway, I am 5'8'' but I've always wanted to be taller like a model, to me it is so elegant. I love the tall and lanky look, so for me that is physical perfection... not for everyone, sure, but its what I like (for guys too) and you can't help what you're attracted to right?;)
I'm short and I think it's great that you like tall girls. It's totally unfair for tall guys to go after girls who are like a foot shorter than them. I always feel guilty when I go out with a tall guy. I feel like I'm taking him away from a tall girl who needs him. So I'll keep the short guys and you go for the tall girls, deal?
No
I know guys will hate me saying this because everyone on here prefers tall girls, but research HAS shown guys prefer short girls. That said, guys complain that women shouldn't have height preferences so the same goes for guys.
Guys shouldn't just go for short girls. Tall ones need love too.One of my friends is 6' and beautiful. She dated guys shorter and taller than her. You like what you like, so enjoy it!
You like what you like and there's never anything wrong with being attracted to who you are
Dude, how can this be a question? You don't need somebody's validation to date the girls you like. Just go date them. BTW, tall girls are really cute. They're all legs.
Well someone has to. God made tall men for the tall women...but the short women usually snatch up the tall men. Enjoy your tall ladies.
No! Not weird at all! I’m 5’9 which is considered tall for my age and I wish I had more guys like you in my school/life
Nope. Tall girls are the best.
