Can being with a short guy (5'7 and below) make women feel equally safe and protected compared to tall guys?

Even the tallest or strongest guys aren't actual protection against anything.

If you get mugged, they are likely to be carrying a knife or gun, and being taller/bulkier just makes your guy a bigger target and slower, so he's less likely to disarm the crook in time.

If a wild animal attacks you, anything high threat wise will be much stronger than any human male, even huge "gym rat" human males.

A tall guy can't stop a speeding car either.

What is it that you think another person can protect you from using brute force or height? You talk about it like its a superpower. 😂

In order to even PARTIALLY get the kind of protection you are talking about, you would need to date a silverback gorilla.

Humans are weak.

What about scenarios where there are drunk creeps hitting on someone's girl at a club etc. Or some stalker on the streets.

[TheSpaceGnome]

The street stalker type is almost always armed with a gun or knife, and even huge gym rat drunk people are so clumsey while drunk, that a child could knock them on their ass. So even then, it's useless, your safety is an illusion. If you are that paranoid, carry mace or a tazer or knife or gun or arm yourself in some other fashion, nothing else is going to be effective in any actually dangerous situation.

Also the steroids that make people into hulkish looking behemoths. shrink their genitals into micropenis sizes.

I should also note that I don't just mean steroid pills, the steroids the body naturally makes when you body build does that too, its why out of the great ape species, humans have the biggest dicks despite being the weakest among them, and gorillas have the smallest dicks, despite being able to rip a person in half with their bare hands..

[TheSpaceGnome]

its also why most body builders and pro wresters have tiny wangs. Even if it was bigger before they got ripped, it shrinks from body building.

The short guy can have a weapon, but he still look unmasculine in comparison to a tall guy.

If I shoot your 6ft5 boyfriend in the chest, he'll be just as hurt as the 5ft6 guy I shoot. Height doesn't matter. Speaking street fights, I have seen many shorter guys hold their own vs tall guys or completely destroy the taller guy.

The only difference is that because he's shorter the other guy might get confident and follow through with the fight only to regret it later, while with a taller guy they might be hesitant to attack, but in the end, you'd be protected by both.

Feel? No guy can determine what you decide to feel. But Can a short guy protect you as much as a tall guy the answer is yes. It's been my experience that short guys generally punch harder. I'm 6'5" and the only guy who's ever knocked me out in a fight wasn't even 6 feet tall. 😆

Bravery is a personal trait and does not correspond to height.

[TheSpaceGnome]

This too, also smaller guys are faster and a smaller target, and stand a better chance to disarm someone because of that (though not by much, relying on an unarmed guy of any size for protection, is laughable).

Yeah of course
