Guys, are you happy with your height?

Question

Women just keep obsessing and obsessing over height. I’m 6ft so it’s never been a real problem for me. But I’m seriously I am really getting sick of it. Ladies men do NOT think the same you do when it comes to height.

I notice that women even describe height excessively even in non dating scenarios. Just today heard my Grandmother consistently mentioning height when she telling stories about men she interacted with (professionally and platonically) in the past.

She almost always describes short men negatively as well. Saying most have napoleon complexes. While that can be true it’s often greatly exaggerated for the shorter men I’ve known over the years.

Women need to quit bringing up height like men somehow magically have a choice in that matter. Like it’s somehow “their fault” if a man is short or something. Especially given how “modern” women consistently shame men for judging female physical characteristics that women actually can change (weight) if they really wanted to.

I don't care. I'm in the middle at around 5'10"... not short, but not tall. I'm pointing this out because I think it doesn't matter and you can't appeal to all women. I've been called too short and I've been called too short by women... how about that? Rejected for both reasons. lolz

I think what pisses off the short Kangz is when they realize women generally want taller men and they the shorter than them women are going for guys like me or above which leaves them with nothing. Stupid virtue signaling bitches will get online and state they'd make an acception and then when pressed their boyfriend is tall as fuck... nobodies buying the virtue signal.

I just think women are fickle as fuck, and there is no point in giving a shit about what hand the God's dealt you in height. If it isn't something you can change then fuck it.

I’m 6 foot, when I dated, I usually ask women out in person, I have preferences of my dates being physically fit, therefore, 6 foot is usually not enough for those types of women to meet online, so I put 6 foot one and I would wear sole inserts when we met, they never noticed the difference. The reason why I did better in person is because I actually look good and I’m 200 pounds of solid Muscle so it really doesn’t matter in real life.

I was only that shallow in response to how shallow women are today, making interactions mostly online will preclude a lot of men, and a lot of men that shouldn’t be Just because one box isn’t checked. That’s life today, There is good news. I’ve heard from younger guys that dating sites are going out the window, Mostly for whores and old men like me, or divorced guys or rich old bored guys and mongers

andreasderjuengere · Answer

No I am not.

I constantly bump my head into things to an extent that I wear a cap all the time when outside, so that I have a buffer.

Riding a motorbike also is difficult. A high centre of gravity spoils my curves performance; I've never won a bike race.

I can't look people straight into their face, as most around me are shorter; this worries me of back spine issues later on.

As I am short sighted, I also struggle with discovering obstructions near my feet.

My height is 5′ 7 and 41/128″

ChiTown33 · Answer

I'm not unhappy with it. Happy? Let's just say it's a 6 foot and under world. I'm 6'5" and let me tell you big and tall stores are made more for big people and less for tall people. Last time I went and bought a suit they only had 2 suits that could even be matched with my height. There's a host of other things such as I cannot drive a compact car because my knees hit the dash. And some my head hits the roof. Stadium seating is a nightmare. And most mirrors are hung chest high so I have to crouch down to look at them.

There's really no advantage to being this tall unless you have skills to play in the NBA which I don't.🤣 so I don't hate being this tall. But there isn't really any benefit to it.

OneViewpoint · Answer

Yeah, I can't complain. I'm 6'2" but I could be happy at 6'0". The truth is clothes, furniture, cars, airline seats, trains, etc. are all made for the median human. Being too far from the median, too short or too tall means life is gonna be a little harder. I think the sweet spot for a guy is about 5'9" to about 6'0". Being average is not all bad.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

Except that most things, today, are made for midgets so, none of us tall people fit in anything and have to pay shitloads more money to get the same thing everybody else gets and fits them well. Why do I have to pay more money just to get clothes that fit me?

Miristheiss · Answer

I am now. I am six foot two, so I have never had to deal with the insecurity of being short. When I was younger I wanted to play in the NBC or at least Division 1 college ball and I hoped to be six foot seven or eight. 6'2" isn't "tall" for basketball purposes. But, as an adult, this height is just fine.

Orion84 · Answer

I am, yes.  I'm tall enough (6''4") to be happy with my height, but I do struggle with finding clothes that fit, and sitting comfortably in cars/planes, so I would not want to be any taller.

Purpleronnie · Answer

What would I do about it if I wasn’t … ?

Walk on stilts …?
Wear platform shoes …?
Only date women with dwarfism …?

Why would anyone waste any time being unhappy about the things they ‘can't’ have an affect on?

AviatorTom · Answer

Yes, I'm just a bit over 6ft (183 cm), which is a perfect height for me. Even if Ione isn't happy with their height, there's not much one can do about it, so one might as well be happy with it.

slatyb · Answer

So far none of my partners have complained. I might like to be a bit taller but I can't change it so I don't worry about it. It's never prevented me from attracting women.

Lliam · Answer

I'm 6'2" and think it's the perfect height. At least  I'm  happy with it. I have no desire to be taller and wouldn't want to much shorter like under 6'. Women like my size.

Joshydavid25 · Answer

I'm cool with it, sometimes I do think about being taller, but I'm taller than most women and even men, I can't complain.. Plus I'm at a height where it's not super for muscles to fill you out..

spartan55 · Answer

Yes. My height has never been mentioned to me in my life. There are very few women taller than me and it's never been an issue.

beefcakebradybatson · Answer

I wish I were about six feet, but since ladies have always found this 5'81'2" black Canadian/American lad handsome, my shortness has never seemed to detract from my lovin' lad desirability.

Awesomesauce2005 · Answer

Im happy cause i can fit in every car i want to. Im 5'9 and i drive a 1978 mgb

LiamJHayden · Answer

Yes. And being concerned about something over which one has no real control is a waste of energy.

WonderingManII · Answer

No because most women I knew, is my height or taller.

Val1313 · Answer

I'm 6'1" and still growing. I have to look down at a lot of the people I got to school with, even some teachers. I'm pretty proud of my height but still going to get taller.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes. I'm 6'3", so I have no reason to be insecure about it.

Staximus · Answer

In_Trance · Answer
