Girls is 5"9 too short for a guy?

[23hopefull]

I have heard girls say they want a guy who's at least 6 feet tall or more cause taller guys are sexy and make them feel safe. Am I too short to get a cute girlfriend? : /

[Anonymous]

I am just a little under 5'10" myself in india (no lies, i have checked many times on the stadiometer comes to 177 cm), so i was pretty insecure about it myself because well, the expression is tall, dark and handsome. Well i am dark so great lol, anyway just fatten up your wallet, buy a great house, leave these stupid complexes, people have greater problems, ask somebody your age from yemen or iraq, they'll tell you. Also to massage your ego a little, the best looking men are around this height some even shorter, eg- in bollywood we have hrithik roshan ( 5'10"), then there are all those hollywood heartthrobs like tom cruise, al pacino, zac efron (less than 5"8") etc. Frankly even amongst 6 footers i feel nearly their height not short, you probably should exercise and build a little muscle, keep it lean dont be buff else u will look even shorter. Also ps, fact that women should be 4-5" shorter than their men is bullshit, a nearly same height looks better

[WizardofDarkMagic]

5’9.5 is the average height for US males. 5’4-5’4.5 is the average height for US females. 96% of the US female population is under 5’9. You’re fine dude.

[ShannonDuh]

Girls do love those taller guys. But honestly? If they just want a tall guy to make them feel "protected" then they are probably a little shallow. They want the whole "stereotypical" romance. Fairytale romance. The works. I have a taller boyfriend who is 5'10. While that is a plus, I honestly don't care. How do you think "small people" get girlfriends? Cause girls like them for who they are.

I know this will sound stupid, but the only thing that matters is what you are on the INSIDE. Not what you LOOK like. Looks shouldn't matter in a relationship.

[SnackG]

Looks do matter. There has to be physical attraction otherwise it's just a super awesome friendship that you call a relationship.

[barbados]

5''9 is perfectly fine. I'm 5"7, tall for a girl... I probably wouldn't date a guy shorter than me but the same height is totally okay, a bit taller even more. And to be honest to feel safe or protected has nothing to do with how tall a guy is.

I've dated this guy, kind of buff, 6"4, a cop... and I didn't feel safe at all... the guy I'm seeing now is 5"9, average build and it's a whole different story.

To feel safe and good with someone is a matter of appearance, behavior and attitude in my opinion

[Realist191]

Or maybe you shouldn't need to rely on your man to feel safe. Maybe its YOU who needs to learn Jiu Jitsu to feel more secure. Be a
physically independant woman! It doesn't matter how much muscle a man has, a rear naked choke or a well placed arm bar by Ronda Rousey
and she can win against them. Stop relying on others to do the work for you and find yourself, your confident self. Ronda Rousey
doesn't need to ask for permission to kick ass if she is surrounded by a threat, she just kicks ass and she's married to a man and is
not some lesbian stereotype just because she has a lot of muscles and does UFC and defends herself, and she also takes care of baby
chooks so she isn't some woman who turns into an aggresive male who abuses steroids and throws men out of windows just for looking at
her. Its also about women. Not about cute girls… whose t-shirt's are see through and nipples showing, asking permission to kick ass.
These girls just kick ass, they're warriors. And yet at thesame time they can be nice and modest and kind and caring. This is the kind
of woman I like. One who can fend for herself and wouldn't get angry or abuse someone who opens the door for her not because she's
helpless but because he was RAISED to be polite like HER and a woman that thanks you fordoing it. I think its about equality and it
should go both ways. A man should also be allowed to do what he likes as long as it isn't harmful to a viewer like PORNOGRAHY which is
proven by the ncbi and thesame goes for women. Women should stop being offensive sex objects rather than just sexy. There has to be
tighter laws or limits. You can't tell another person not to look at you if you are naked because its not entirely possible. However,
a man or a woman should be allowed to wear sexy make up but not allowed to wear a G-string or a Jockstrap in public that bares the
nipples or privates.

[Realist191]

Just as it is not appropriate if we all drive on the opposite side of the road. Just as a man wouldn't go outside
showing people his boner. Again, you should be allowed to do anything you enjoy doing, as long as it doesn't cause harm to a childs
brain which the ncbi has proven that certain private areas of the body have done. Those areas can accelerate the brain in various ways
that are harmful to their mentality and their personality which increases their chance of underage sex. If nudity at the beach is
described offensive by a majority with their kids then a red flag should be used like an age limit, just as if a person was fine with
touching someone on the inner thigh but the other wasn't. G strings should also be restricted to certain events just as hoodies are
not allowed in clubs due to identification. There is a code of conduct. There are also certain laws that need changing like Paparazzi
consent or window wipers being a traffic hazzard. Men or women should open doors for each other and should cook for each other and
woman shouldn't expect the men to look pretty or ask them out or say: What if he isn't good enough for me? Um maybe what if YOU aren't
good enough for him?

[Realist191]

Don't be a Kardashian. Its not always ABOUT YOU! And remember.. Equality. Just as women enjoy heels because they
look sexy, if men enjoy wearing 4 inch shoes because they like the look of the shoe more than the baby sized heel, then they can do so
as women wear 4 inch heels. These things dont make you any more secure if you are already confident inside. You can wear elevator
shoes or heels for the look and it doesn't always mean insecurity. If you need something artificial like armor or shoes to be secure
then you need to increase your own body's natural confidence. Or if you were super confident already like Mike Tyson you wouldn't CARE
what you wore and wear them not to be more secure but because you ENJOY it! I know someone who enjoys wearing motorbike padding in his
jacket because he has a passion for medieval armor since he was a kid. He always said how he enjoys the look of its aesthetic look.
Not because he needs it like some anxiety relieving pill. He's not thinking how he can only win a fight against a bully because
he relies on it as if its some safeguard to catch him from falling.

[Realist191]

Because safety nets cause your brain to think DOUBT and
to doubt your own strength is very dangerous. Human beings perform better without doubt. Its not what you wear, its what your REASONS
are for wearing it. They are superficial and if you are truly confident you either wouldn't wear them or you would wear them and not
care about what people thought because you are so confident. Mike Tyson was told by a guy he looked gay because he wasn't wearing a
"straight jacket" and Mike just yelled at him and didn't care. Thats like the equivalent of wearing a more feminine shoe or sunglasses.
Mike didn't care because he knew he could of destroyed that guy with anything he wore and because he was so confident so again it can
go two ways, it doesn't have to be that if you were confident you wouldn't need to wear them. Women shouldn't be in a selfish need of
protection. Its fine if your boyfriend defends you but you need to be able to protect him too instead of hide behind him like a sissy.
Just dont cause fights over little things because in life there is anhedonia and covid and brain or neurological disorders that make
petty problems like a small car crash look meaningless so try not to fight about insignificant things and make a fuss over small
preferences because there are worse things that you can't begin to imagine. Im not saying he can't protect you but Im also saying learn
martial arts. Don't be sheep to society. Dont expect guys to always be the one to protect you. No! Wo-man up and protect yourself!
Also! Just because you are strong and able to defend yourself doesn't label you some feminist.. Thats how little kids think because
they dont know that the two are also independant or unrelated to each other even if they can be dependant of each other.
Losing to a woman is not an embarrassing thing. We need to get rid of this stereotype because women can be strong too!

[Realist191]

We need to get
rid of the stereotype that women are helpless and get rid of this women are inferior stereotype. So if we had a 120 pound man who was just as strong as a small woman do we treat him
differently within the justice system just because he is a male? Despite him having thesame strength as a woman.. If a woman doesn't
have the physical strength of a male she can still be smarter and try to aim for areas of the body that can cause incapacitation or
are advantageous such as an uppercut to the groin or a kick to the liver or a blood choke or armbar. For example. Certain aggressive
dogs are stronger than certain woman but applying a rear naked choke to prevent the dog from further attacks proves you can outsmart
the difference in strength if you are skilled enough. Due to this possibility this implies women are capable. Again this doesn't mean
a man is not allowed to protect a woman if the woman or the man wants to. It only means he doesn't need to be FORCED to. I would rather
face an less experienced male in a fight than a more experienced woman in a fight or in a sword fight since its all about who cuts
who's limbs first rather than outmuscling your opponent with larger muscles. If I had repeated myself in some sentences that was done
on purpose to emphasise certain points.

[icanhelp]

Ah don't worry cupcake :) I'm 5"9 and my boyfriend of 3 years is 5"4 and I reckon he's the mist amazing, hot, wonderful guy ever. When it comes down to it, I couldn't care less if he was 5"4 or 6"5 :) you'll find some cute girl that will think you're the cats pj's :)

[23hopefull]

: D

[lananoel]

ha.. honey your fine.. I'm 5'4 and my boyfriend is 5'8 and he only outweighs me by 15 lbs.. Trust me your fine.

[23hopefull]

haha thanks :)

[Realist191]

The deadliest fighters in the world are 5'7.5 5'10 and 5'11

Bruce Lee 171 cm
Mike Tyson 178 cm
Fedor Emelianenko 180 cm

The more recent fighters

Francis Ngannou 193 cm
Jon Jones 192.5cm

Taller fighters are also dangerous but I know for a fact a prime Fedor would beat Jon Jones despite Fedor at 230 pounds being 12.5 cm shorter than Jon Jones at 205 pounds. Francis Ngannou however is the hardest puncher and is currently possibly the deadliest fighter. However since Fedor is shorter his proves you need weight. Not height.

[ilovetosmile]

you are totally fine:) Girls normally don't really date guys shorter than them, but I'm 5"3 and I'm dating a guy that is 5"7. You are not even short what are you talking about:P

[Motorcycle_Girl]

I think it depends on the size of the girl. As a general rule girls want a man to be taller than them. I'm 5'2 though. A man who is 5'5 is plenty.

[69696951]

Most girls do not want a guy that is shorter than her but you will still be able to get a cute girlfriend. I am 5'3" and a 5'9" guy would be a perfect height for me but a girl who is 6' might feel differently. Also, if a girl is willing to not date you solely based off your height is that the type of girl you want?

[dudeman]

nahh your not to short most men are not even 6ft tall so they will get with you but you definitely won't be the first person there you will most definitely get a hand me down

[Anonymous]

Girls usually just want someone that is taller than them. So just find a girl that is shorter than you, which is most girls, and I'm sure you'll be able to get a cute girlfriend.

[udolipixie]

5'10'' is average yes you're short.

Don't blame your height on getting a girl plenty of shorter guys have girls.

If you're ugly doesn't matter you can get a cute girl since most compromise/settle on looks.

[rocksongwriter]

What universe do you live in? Just curious.

[udolipixie]

I live on planet Earth where in America 5'10'' is the average for a girl.

I'm pretty sure it's not soley his height affecting him. Maybe it's looks, personality, or the women he's going after want more than he has because they are more attractive.

Even if he's ugly he can still get a cute girl because girls are less visual and will compromise on looks if you fit at least 70% of what they want. I see ugly guys with cute girls more than the reverser

[Justreplying]

Are you serious? The average woman in America is 5"4 tall. Please get your facts straight and don't post fake information.

[udolipixie]

I'm not kidding. My facts are straight as I didn't post about the average American woman height. Improve your reading comprehension before you throw a tantrum.

[GoWebGo]

The average male height in the US is 5'9 1/2 like I am now at 15... You americans are so short... Pretty ;) Lol jk About you being short.

[EngineeringStudent]

5'9 isn't too short. I know guys that are 4 inches shorter with cute girlfriends. I'm only 5'10 myself.

[doctorwhofan23]

I hope not because I am only 5"9. But I hear girls want to feel protected or something junk like that.

[MarcusBorino]

I’m 5’7-5’8 I prefer to date girls the same height as me, and I would have no problem with a girl that was a couple inches taller!

[cookie1993]

I am 5'7" and have not ever been told I am too short.

[Anonymous]

Nope, not at all. My current crush is only 5'6".

[Broken_InSide]

yeah I like the man to be tall, at least 5.8

[Tofraz]

How much is that in CM?

[dudeman]

time 69 by 2.54

[SnackG]

175.26.

[Tofraz]

Im also 175 and most girls are still shorter then me so I don't have a problem with that myself so I don't think you are to short.
