I'm around 5'10", and I like women to be around my height. It's good for your confidence, and you set up the next generation for more attractive genes if everything works out between you and the lady.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yI don't get how 5'7-5'8 is medium. According to statistics the average height for women worldwide is 5'5. But I guess that's Gag, so everyone here will post his own $hit 😂 are you sure you aren't that Cheetah guy that's obsessed with height?

1.1K opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. I've never not dated someone because of their height.
My wife is maybe 5' 4", I'm 6'
I have dated a few that were taller, and every where inbetween.
it comes down to their personality vs looks, height etc.15 Reply

Asker+1 yAwesome, thanks.
It bias, 5'9 is the average height for men, so 5'8 is not medium for women, 5'3 is feminine.

Asker+1 yIt was to emphasize shortness and debunk the claim that childlike is somehow more ''feminine''. A woman who is on the taller side is more ladylike than a short women that is childlike. More ladylike=more feminine. Men prefer a woman over a young girl.
Asker+1 yIf that was the case all men would pick the shorter girl, tallness in a woman is a ladylike trait, being short is a childlike trait. Men don't want masculine women and most men prefer a woman over a little girl.
Asker+1 yTaller genes=better healthier stronger genetics that produce better offspring. Also men tend to want a girl that is the same height or shorter than they are which plays a factor. Wanting a tiny woman over an average sized or one on the taller side defies natural selection.
Asker+1 yTallness is not a masculine trait, being taller than your partner is, there lies your confusion, the majority of men picked the middle option for a reason, because they tend to be around that height or slightly taller so they are taller or the same height that they are and they prefer a woman with better healthier genes and a woman that is more ladylike and feminine over a girl who is childlike in height or less feminine.
Asker+1 yThere is literally nothing wrong with being the same height. Also having a woman who is slightly taller than you are as a girlfriend doesn't look that bad either.
Do you concede that medium sized women are more feminine than short women because tallness is actually more ladylike than childlike?
Tallness is both a masculine and feminine trait. Being taller than your partner is a masculine trait as men tend to be taller and women prefer taller men.
Asker+1 yHell yeah it is both a masculine and feminine trait, a woman is taller than a girl, a man is taller than a boy. Natural growth. **Being taller than your partner is a masculine trait** **And women prefer that a man be taller than them** That is the masculine and feminine thing about height.
The medium sized woman is more desired over the short women by men, thus the **taller** one is more feminine/ladylike.
Another example, thin lips can be both a masculine and feminine trait because it looks good on both genders.
Asker+1 yMen tend to be taller than women, women want a man who is taller then them. Being taller than your partner is a masculine trait. Taller women are more ladylike/feminine (have better healthier genes are more desirable than a woman who is childlike/less feminine) and are usually more desired by most men so long as they are shorter than they are as shown by the poll. Case closed.
Asker+1 yYou still haven't admitted that average sized women are more feminine then short women by the way.
Asker+1 yMost men prefer average size women. Men don't prefer more ''masculine women'' over more ''feminine women'' that does not make sense logically.
Asker+1 yEvery man would of picked the short option if that was the case, you lost the argument my friend.
Asker+1 yA fully developed 18 year old woman is young. A fully developed woman is more feminine than a young girl, a fully developed woman will be taller than she was as a younger girl. A fully developed woman doesn't equal old.
Asker+1 yLadylike/fully developed/mature=more feminine
Childlike=less feminine (*not more masculine* just less feminine/ladylike)
Lady/fully developed woman will have bigger breasts (more feminine), bigger hips and butt (more feminine) than as she was as a young girl, and she will be taller than she was when she was a younger girl, so tallness in a woman will be associate with being ladylike/feminine while being shorter is childlike so less feminine. Most Men want a *young* fully developed woman not a child hence why average sized women or those on the taller side are more womanly/feminine.
Asker+1 ySo the medium sized woman as listed in the options is more desirable to most men than the short girl, the taller medium sized woman cannot be more ''masculine'' because most men prefer her over the short one naturally, as she is more womanly/ladylike/more feminine and has better healthier genes that will produce healthier offspring.
Asker+1 yA tall women has better genetics that will produce stronger healthier offspring, men will be inclined to pick the woman that has better genes (and the factor of wanting to be taller than the woman the man will be with), which is why 2/3 of the men as of now (if you include those who picked the tallest option) would choose medium size over short. So if most men pick a taller option than the short one it is factually incorrect to say that short woman is more feminine as most men would pick the medium sized option over her, why would men prefer a more ''masculine'' woman? The answer is they don't because the shorter woman is not the most feminine one.
Asker+1 yHow you can deny that I'm right at this point is beyond me.
+1 y5' 9 to 6 feet tall (slightly tall to tall).
Tall sounds best in my head, so I'll go with that.

Asker+1 yI prefer medium to slightly tall. But height doesn't really matter to me much unless the girl is very short or extremely tall like 6 foot 5 and up.
Asker+1 yAs if two people downvoted your comment over which height you prefer, what a bunch of weird losers.

Yh, I agree with your second point, pathetic. The only deal breaker I have in height, is someone way shorter, as I'm only 159cm.
+1 yYou're missing the one height of 5'4, under 5'0 and over 6'0. 5'7+ is actually leaning more toward tall for a woman. Like most guys I like women that are shorter than myself but I'm also definitely attracted to women my height and taller too

Asker+1 yI wanted to emphasize ''short'' by removing 5'4 and not placing it in medium.

+1 yI have no preference in height, so I pick whichever is nearer to me.

Nearest, not nearer, since there are three.
Asker+1 yWhich is?
The middle one but it matters so little to me.

+1 yI definitely prefer short over medium and I would never date a tall woman. 5' 7" would probably be the max height for me. I like it when women wear heels and if she's 5' 8" in 5" heels then she'll be taller than me which is awkward.

+1 y5'9" is not slightly tall for a woman. That is bona-fide tall.

I don't. Even by American standards 5'9 is considered tall for a woman. 5'9" is slightly tall for a man.
Asker+1 y5'9 is not tall for a white man, it's the average. 5'5 is the average for a white woman in the U. S
Asker+1 yMy options was not ''average'' for the middle one, I put medium and put slightly tall and tall to help distinguish.
+1 yUp to 5 inches shorter than me and at least 5 ft tall sounds like my preference

Asker+1 ySo out of the 3 which one is it?

I picked medium to be in the middle of it
All of the options are shorter than me

+1 yI only date women that are 5"5 - 5"9
Any woman under 5"5 is a child
Any woman above 5"9 is a man.

Asker+1 yWhat a dumb comment. But I agree short women seem childlike and less womanly.
Overall, height is irrelevant. But If I had to choose, I'd say 5'4 to 5'6 because I'm 5'9 and like to be a little taller
