Why do so many men on here like short/average women?

Question

I've seen polls and almost the majority of them favor women under 5'7. From what I've seen of Instagram models and models in general, the most attractive women are at least 5'7 in my opinion. I've never seen such hot women in my life and a lot of the hottest women are at least 5'7 so i'm not really sure how you can't find that attractive if the woman in that range is.

I'm not sure what makes you think everyone wants a model. A lot of people are realistic and know they probably aren't getting a model as a romantic partner.

I think it boils down to the height of the average male and the desire to be a good bit taller than their partners. If the average height is something like 5'9", then many of them are going to want partners that are 5'4" or 5'5" or whatever.

I've never said anything about having a model as a romantic partner. I clearly stated that a lot of models I do see are attractive and that they are usually tallish 5'7+ for a woman, but most men would not go out with these women no matter how attractive they are and instead convey an opinion that is the exact opposite.

Most attractive to who? Beauty is a subjective experience.

Models are tall so I don't think its always subjective. Most guys on here wouldn't be attracted to a woman thats 5'7 and taller just for the fact she is 5'7 and taller even if she was very attractive. I

I said its not always subjective, I never said it is never subjective. Would you find a perfectly proportioned tall women with the best breasts and butt size unattractive with a perfect face that is literally a model? I can't see how you wouldn't.

You can't see it. That doesn't mean it isn't real.

You mentioned the "best" breast and butt size. What size is that? I very much prefer petite women who have a slender body and 32A-34B boobs. Some guys think a girl less than 36D looks like a child.

The fashion world is not the real world. Fashion models are tall because they show clothes better than short women. But in real life, tall is masculine and short is feminine.

Still, I've seen plenty of attractive tall women. I don't really see how tall is masculine and short is feminine. Height has nothing to do with being masculine or feminine. Its the way you act and the way you appear to people that makes you masculine or feminine. There are plenty of mature tall women that act mature and are nice to people. There are plenty of shorter women that don't act mature at all. Of course there's always women of both types that are the opposite. But I have never really heard of short men being feminine or tall women being masculine, I don't think height has anything to do with that. A man is a man, a woman is a woman both are masculine and feminine regardless of what they look like.

I'm not sure what your angle is here, but your views on this issue are certainly different from most normal people. Maybe you're a tall woman posing as a man, trying to somehow influence people or make a social statement. Or perhaps you're a short man who dislikes the fact that height is such a big deal to people, I don't know.

But regardless, I'll try to help you understand the realities of height and human attraction. Maybe it's not entirely accurate to say that tall is masculine and short is feminine. I'll put it another way for you... most straight women find taller men more attractive than shorter men, and most straight men find shorter women more attractive than taller women. You can attribute that to whatever you want, but the fact is it is just a component of human nature. It has always been that way, and it always will.

There are exceptions to every rule, as you demonstrate here, but what I've said here is true for the vast majority of normal people.

Do you speak for all women and men? Attraction is one thing, preference is another. Just because women prefer taller men that doesn't automatically mean they find shorter men automatically unattractive. Just because men prefer shorter women, that doesn't mean they automatically find taller women unattractive. Attraction is more than height. I've never actually heard a guy say a girl thats taller than him is unattractive when she's very attractive, same with shorter men with women. You're spewing BS. Attraction is not the same as preference, not always at least.

No they are not true. Height does not equal attraction all the time and it shouldn't be. There are plenty of women that find shorter men attractive and don't focus on their height as being the most important trait, same with men and vice versa. You're literally talking bullshit. Just because a man is taller than a woman that doesn't make him any more attractive than a guy that is shorter, there are women that don't give a fuck about height at all. Just because a woman is taller than a man that doesn't make her any less attractive than a woman that is shorter, there a plethora of men that don't care about height. Maybe don't talk out of your ass and use your head

You keep putting words in my mouth and then calling them bullshit, so I'm not going to waste any more time on that conversation with you.

I will just say this. I just took a look at your profile and you clearly have serious issues about height, so I'm not surprised you are being so weird about it here with me. You have posted 31 questions over the last 7 months and 30 of them was about height, literally. That's not healthy, dude.

I wish you the best.

I'll repeat it again, being a guy taller than a woman doesn't automatically make you more attractive. Even a guy shorter than a woman with a good personality, better looks, and better body will be more attractive than a guy thats the complete opposite. Same with men and women.
