5'8" guy vs 6' guy? Which do you prefer?

[Anonymous]

Can the 5"8 ever be as attractive as the 6", if not more? Or will the taller always be the most attr.?

Also: Hot 5"8 or average 6"? Be honest! :)

PS, I'm 5"8

Some short guys look good, not all tall guys are attractive. if all things were equal I'd prefer the tall guy, but that doesn't mean that a short guy can't be hotter than a tall guy. there are some ugly tall guys out there, I wouldn't be attracted to a guy just because of his height.

i'd take the hot 5'8 over the avg 6"

[definebeauty]

i have met some sexy short guys and some amazingly hot tall guys. height is not the only factor that determines one's all over attractiveness.

I would take the hot 5'8"

height doesn't really matter to me that much but the way my partner looks kind of does. I know that sounds shallow but it is what it is.

In terms of height only, yes in general but not for me. I definitely prefer 6', taller to a point where they won't look too awkward next to my height is attractive. Too much taller and I wouldn't consider dating them because it'll be quite uncomfortable. I'd date a 5'8.

Average 6'

I just don't understand what's so attractive about a 6" person. Not to sound offensive, but I think al ot of tall people look a bit awkward / clumsy. Is it just the protection thing? What if the shorter man was strong anyway / muscles?

:D

[visual]

Hmm, the only clumsy ones that I've seen are usually small in frame (though still tall). I think the others get most of their coordination/strength from muscle building and other physical activities.

It's not about protection to me, it's just that they look bigger, there's more to admire haha. If they're big in size I'm a lot more cautious about who they are character-wise, I do not want a guy who is irresponsible with his.. gorgeously strong body, I don't need him to use it against me lol.

[visual]

I've never looked to guys for protection (physically) so that's not it.

If there was a 5'8" guy who was strong/muscular, that's all good, I'd date him if he was everything else I wanted haha. It's only if he's too short where I wouldn't be comfortable because even if he's taller but near my height, even if he is muscular, he still looks little... :/ even though I'm petite, he's still little! :S I'm 5'3".

[Asker]

But why is little so bad? I understand if he's smaller than you, but the same size? I mean.. it's handy, innit? :D

Enlighten me please!;)

Well I dated a guy who was both short and small in frame and he just looked like a little boy... :x I was in high school though but still... I don't have a little brother but I could liken it to that.

If he's the same size he might as well be a girl. :x Wha that sounds harsh but I'm not sure how to put it... I'm slim so...

Well really, if his personality/character is great, I don't mind in all honesty but those guys are hard to find so I can't test it out for ya. :P

There have been plenty of

[visual]

men that are short and small in frame and have things in them that I look for but they've been too old / taken so I guess I can see that if they were the right age, I could still date them without a problem.

But in general, if it's all about looks, those are my reasonings. xD If he doesn't have the personality, he's just going to look like a little boy. If he has a good personality he's going to look like a man no matter what!

[visual]

I like to wear heels, 3.5" is good so if he's the same size and I wear them, ah o. xD I mean he can still be attractive but that doesn't mean I'd feel okay dating him. ;)

[Asker]

"Well I dated a guy who was both short and small in frame and he just looked like a little boy... :x" How tall are we talking? Because I don't really see 5"8 as small.. but what do I know? :P

[visual]

Like near my height lol... I never asked his height, just a few cm taller than me.

He wasn't near 5'8".

[Asker]

What about a guy the same height as a women?

:P

[visual]

If he's got the personality, sure. If not, nope!

I think that if I were taller, I wouldn't mind so much (I still like my heels), as in if we were the same height because he'd still be quite sizable height wise.

[Asker]

Ok, thanks for your help then! Appreciated!

Also, just remember not to overdo it with the heels ;)

[visual]

It's alright, I know not to over do it, if I do, I wouldn't be able to walk properly. ;) Thanks for BA!

[NOTaTranny]

No. If the 6" guy gets his face blown off with a high power rifle he will still be more attractive than someone who is slightly shorter.

What do you think...

[Phoenix52]

Girls would be more attracted to the dominant male. So ... whichever one is in better shape would be the more attractive guy.

[peace-love-couture]

Yes, the 5'8 guy can be as attractive as the 6' tall guy

Ugly is ugly and attractive is attractive. No amount of height can make up for a fugly face or awkward body

[bunnyfrancis]

i'm 5'8 so I'm more likely to go for a 6'0 or taller. but if I connect with a guy shorter I would still give him a shot fersure.

[sandygirl]

depends..if whom of them I can fell in love with...both:P

[Jaj93]

Since I'm 5"8 it'd have to be the 6" guy, I need a guy who's taller than me, for me, if he's shorter than me, it's a deal breaker. That's just me though:)
