Why do girls feel that guys over 6 feet are more attractive?

I don't really see why It matters I find girls of various heights attractive.

I find guys of various heights attractive.

But I think for a lot of girls, it comes back to a) wanting to feel protected (and they subconsciously see someone who is bigger as better able to protect); and b) being with a taller guy makes a lot of girls feel more feminine (the view that women are supposed to be smaller and men are supposed to be larger). It's hard for some girls to feel feminine when they are larger than their boyfriend. The taller a guy is than a girl, the more masculine she may see him as, and the more feminine she may feel.

I guess that is a fair answer but seeing as you say you like guys of various heights do a lot of girls also feel this way. I feel my height puts me at a disadvantage.

[selfishstars]

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I'm sure I'm not the only girl who feels that way.

Girls like tall guys. For a lot of girls, it is a deal breaker. They won't date short people even though they have great qualities. When they date tall guys, there is a sense of comfort and protection they possess unlike shorter dudes(even if they have a black belt or something.) They also like wearing heels and it would suck if they can't wear heels because the dude is short. I haven't dated a short guy. Well I'm 5'6, so I don't know how it's like.

I guess but what do they want to feel protected from

[janelle615]

I dunno, they just feel protected because the guy is bigger as in hugs and holding them. It's a more manlier thing. Would you find it awkward when you're hugging a girl that's taller than you?

not really

You got it all wrong with me --- I go for guys under six feet but over six inches.

[doctorwhofan23]

Really

[dryad]

I do hope you know what I mean by that

[doctorwhofan23]

Yeah but that is a big deal.

[dryad]

So where is the 3rd six? The mark of the Beast, then? 666? So much in sixes these days, I notice.

I don't think that is more attractive. My boyfriend is the same height as I am- 5'5" :)

I think some girls just like to feel "small and cute." :P Being with a really tall guy gives them that feeling.

[doctorwhofan23]

I guess that is fair but shorter guys need love too.

[Opinion Owner]

Haha agreed. I like guys of all heights.

My first boyfriend was shorter than me, but I thought he was hot ;) Honestly, his height bothered him more than it bothered me :(
