Why is it very common for short girls to want her man to be a foot taller than her?

Question

I get that girls want their man to be taller than them and girls of average height are ok with dating a guy a few inches taller than them but from what i've seen, short girls want the height difference to be extreme. I'm referring to girls who are like below 5'4 wanting there man to be 6'2+ and won't settle for anything else. Wouldn't that make these women feel like a child in comparison to their man? Also for tall men, would you not be concern at screwing your son over when it comes to height by having children with very short women?

It is one of the hardwired instincts left over from primitive times. Women looked for a mate that was large and strong to protect the children from predators. Men tend to be attracted to certain breasts and ass for primitive reasons as well. The width of the hips show she can carry and birth babies easily, full breasts are a sign she can feed them.

No matter how far we believed we have evolved, most still are slaves to the primitive thinking. this is why sex is so much more important to humans. Nature wanted us to reproduce, so we were given a motive other than reproduction to have sex. We were given physical and emotional pleasure as a reward. And that reward became the primary driving force as we now wish to control reproduction.

The heart wants what the heart wants. Two tall is, dominant over short, therefore using mendel genetic, unless the man also carries a, short gene, the offspring will heterozygous tall. (Tt). Equally the tall phenotype. One would have to be homozygous short to express the short phenotype.
Three you see short men as being screwed over?

I dont know. I'm 4'10 and my guy is 6'3.
Maybe it's biological, I've always been attracted to taller guys. There are benefits being woth a tall guy...
1. He can reach high shelves and easily change light bulbs for her.
2. He can litteraly pick her up and carry her around, as well as to bed if she's asleep or if she's horny.
3. She always feel like you're rolling with your own personal bodyguard.
4. She will never lose him in a crowd and he can find her more easily.
5. She can comfortably sit on his shoulders at a concert.
6. She never has to get on her knees to give him a BJ.

Uh.. women tend to prefer tall men because they can pick them up and kiss them and more other.. kinky stuff xD

MrCryptic · Answer

Being 6'3", I've seen this a lot actually and have mostly dated short girls. Some say that it is a biological subconscious feeling that they don't want their potential offspring to be short as it is often seen as being weaker or not as dominant. They may subconsciously see that if they date a man who is even just an inch or two taller that their offspring will also be short but if they date a man 6'2"+ then their offspring has a much greater chance of being average-tall in height based on the gene's of the father.

PoliceLivesMatter · Answer

Might be the “cuteness” of it or the novelty of how different the height difference is between the two. It could also be how that specific woman feels with her man, protected, feminine, etc. You don’t have to be tall to induce these feelings in her, other qualities and/or actions can do it as well. I don’t like people to identify themselves based on their physical qualities such as “tall guy” or “short girl.” No, you’re a guy or a girl that has a wide range of physical qualities and interests. It doesn’t make sense to label yourself based on your height, as if that’s your worth and nothing else. I feel like a lot of insecure people do this. You can have a million amazing qualities but if you’re insecure about your height, being too tall or too short, you’ll identify yourself with JUST that quality. You’ll be calling yourself strictly a “short man” “short girl” “tall girl”

Height comes from the male side of the genetics, so procreating with a short woman really doesn’t factor into the decision. In my experience large height differences make the bedroom more interesting. Sometimes you need to adjust positions from the typical, also as a man I feel more powerful when with a tiny woman. Don’t get me wrong, I dated a 5’11 girl for 4 years and I could not get over those legs that went for a mile and when she wore heels it was a major turn on. But anyways, in terms of the commonality of it, I think it’s common for partners to enjoy height differences as they seem to compliment each other.

Mistnigqa808 · Answer

I've been saying that for years and the stuff looks kinda creep to me. Like I'd be damned if I was 6'5 or some thing while walking around with a woman shorter than 5'8 in public. Like I need others to think or guess she's my girlfriend and not my potential daughter (depending on our age/how we looked by the face lol).

LesterJester · Answer

Being around 6'5 I don't have issues with shorter people since most people I encounter are shorter than me to begin with.

As for why girls want a guy taller than them?

Maybe so they have a portable periscope that can see things further away and above obstacles, and to better reach high things... Otherwise if you go for someone shorter then you become the periscope.

VIVANT · Answer

Short people like tall friends too. Talk people loke short friends. It balances things out and everyone feels accepted. we tend to look for traits we lack I’d we appreciate and want in ourselves, in others.

movielover · Answer

Most of the time it just kinda happens I’m 4’10 and any guy is going to be taller then me. I’ve dated a guy who was only 5’5 and that felt right to me cause that made him feel confident. I’ve never dated a tall guy but to me that feels awkward cause it’s never natural to kiss each other. For the girls who say they can teach stuff off the top shelf learn to climb shelves or use step stools.

I tried kissing my cat while she was on a dresser.. then I realised what kind of a struggle it would be to date a guy who is toooo tall. I don’t mind height. It’s the personality that matters the most to me 🥰 and now I wrote a weird comment yay

Saville_Row · Answer

High heels. It feels awesome when you get to use 3" or 4" without any concern of towering your boyfriend. I'm 5'2 and generally ok with 5'10 to 6' but I did date a guy who was 6'3. He loved the height difference... and I bet he's not the only one.

ciitruskiwi · Answer

I'm 5'4 and my boyfriend is 6'4. I've always just been more into guys that are that much taller than me. Not sure why but I just feel more comfortable and safer if that makes sense.

Straight women choose their mates with their lizard brains and sexual dimorphism. There is no rationale to conscious decisions on this one.

SweetEvilKitty · Answer

I can't relate to this, I am 5'8 and don't care about height what so ever.

Personally I prefer guys around my height (5'6) or just an inch taller or shorter
My ex was 6'4 but I didn't date him for his height but his personality.. He proved to be the biggest douche on earth though

ForteExe · Answer

I've never heard of a girl who considered a height difference below 10 inches to be a deal breaker... That seems a bit silly to me.

Partywithtom · Answer

Because she wants to be impaled by his dick and spun like she was a dreidle whilst impaled and spray cum out across the room like the old sprinklers that were like typewriters.

Anon-ymous1 · Answer

Because that's simply what most girls want-- a bigger, taller, stronger guy. Just like most guys simply want a smaller, thinner, more petite girl to take care of. Evolutionary biology.

AtomicCheesing · Answer

I am not concerned about kids in regards to height. Grandma was short but my uncles were average or above average. I am more concerned about insomnia, anxiety and alcoholism.

Just by chance, my boyfriend is 12 inches taller than me. I do find, although it was not planned, that I feel safe with him!
