What height do you find ideal? (Both realistic and unrealistic) and is height an important factor?

[Anonymous]

I'm a short, 5'1 girl. My dream height for a guy is 6-6'3.
My realistic, ideal height would be 5'7 and above. Not too tall though because I'm a midget.
Height wouldn't be a factor for me when I choose guys, but they probably have to be taller than me (not too hard to be a guy and be 5'1<) and tallness would be a plus. But never a minus.

How tall are you, what's your dream height (both real and unreal), and is height important to you? Both girls and guys!

[Cdeboo111]

I am 4'11" and my dream height would be 5'9" but realistically it would be around 5'4" or taller. Height isn't a huge factor I look at when it comes to guys but they have to be taller which is really easy to find. I love to be picked up and feel protected so I love tall guys, but as long as the guy is nice and somewhat good looking I don't think height would matter.

[Asker]

I so agree with you!!! Not many girls care too much about a guy's height, really.

[xCutesyLolitax]

You are so lucky!! ;_; I'm 5'6, but I wished I was 4'11! o:

[Cdeboo111]

Why? not many guys like my height at least in my experiences, they have actually turned me down because of it before. 5'6" is average which is perfect, I have dreamed of being with a tall guy and a lot don't want to be with a girl sooo short saying they will look like my father

[xCutesyLolitax]

You may be right, but I can't ever imagine why a boy would turn you down for being cute and small! o: You will find a boy that loves your height... I promise!(:

[Cdeboo111]

thanks 😁

[Eric644]

Umm, almost all of them do, we don't care about height though, you ladies need to catch up to us on that one

[Victoria14]

im 5'4 and have always liked guys that were like 6'0 and above.. but not like anything past 6'7 haha thatd be a little too tall. but i just at least want the guy im with to be taller than me. i think its one of those subconscious protective, dominant appealing traits that i like for guys to have.. i dont know haha

[Asker]

I definitely agree with what you said! :) thank you for taking time to answer :D

[Victoria14]

oh im glad haha and sure thing! :)

[EyeSeaYew]

I am 5'5. I considered height to be more of a bonus than anything else, similar to what you said. I really like 6'3 to 6'5. That's a nice bonus to me. But I really don't care about height much. I've liked guys shorter than me. I don't really care too much about that.

[Asker]

Agreed :)

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'2.
Dream height: 6'0-6'3
Realistic height: 5'8-6'3

I dated a guy that was 6'5 before... it was awkward as hell. I don't think i'll ever date someone that tall again! When he hugged me I would stand on my toes and he STILL have to bend down XD

[RandomStudent]

Why no 5'6ers? :(

[Opinion Owner]

I'm not against guys that are 5'6 but they're kinda on the short side.
I've dated 5'4 before and I've dated 6'5 before, but ideally I'd date 5'8-6'3.

[Asker]

Hahaha whoa I pictured it and that's really cute XD and I agree with your heights you listed :D thanks for your opinion!

[Eric644]

how about a guy that is 5'7?

[decemberxblue]

My "ideal" is 5'8+, but height isn't much of a determining factor for me, if she's cute she's cute.

s3-ec.buzzfed.com/.../...ced-6539-1405586453-1.gif

But when a girl is tall and attractive, she's *really* attractive...

[decemberxblue]

Forgot to mention, I'm 6'4.

[Red_Dragon]

I understand what you mean.

[Asker]

I also understand what you mean.. I'd rather be taller than most guys and be 5'9 but I'm tryint to love my height too :)

[decemberxblue]

Asker - Nothing wrong with that. Quick question, why do shorter girls not like being overlooked due to height, but at the same time overlook shorter men?

[Asker]

Opposites attract. And this is just my opinion... Evolution and genetics come kicking in, I think. I'm speaking in terms of nature in general, and I'm NOT saying being short is inferior in both men and women. But generally, big and tall tend to be dominant in nature. Without knowing, short girls may seek for tall guys to produce more "dominant" offspring because they're short themselves. I also like tall guys because I'm short, and also, being tall for a man or woman is broadly seen as attractive regardless of whose point of view.

[decemberxblue]

No answer was a wrong answer, I was just curious to your thoughts. Thanks for sharing.

[Hikikomori]

I'm 6'5. My dream height for a girl is 5'3-6'11.

I don't like bending that much, but I wouldn't mind because why the fuck would I not endure something so petty for someone special.

[Asker]

Awwww :D that is so sweet! Thanks for your opinion!

[musicbrain5]

I'm 6'1" and a guy around my height is ideal. My SO is 6'4" and that's just fine.

There are honestly not many guys who would want to go out with a girl my height, at least according to my tall friends and pretty much all the guys on this website, haha.

[Asker]

I'd kill to be your height. I'd rather be super tall than super short.. and I know girls your height. They look so pretty.. but I think your height is good because you can definitely find guys taller than you :)

[musicbrain5]

Yeah I have heard that it's annoying to be real short too. But I think girls of all heights can be beautiful.

[Anonymous]

Being totally shallow and not wanting to offend any guy: my ideal would be about 6'2" and I'm 5'2". I just think it's extremely sexy. But it's not that important. I'm extremely attracted to a guy who is about 4 inches or so shorter than that.

I would date any guy taller than me if I liked him and was attracted to him aside from height. But my realistic ideal would be 5'9" or 5'10".

[Asker]

I agree with everything you said. But height really isn't that important to me either :) it is overrated!!!

[Opinion Owner]

very true. I dont understand why some guy down voted me -___-

[DodgersGM]

The only thing that I really care about in terms of height is that she's shorter than I am (so 5'11" or shorter).

If I was pressed into saying an ideal height, I'd probably say between 5'4'' and 5'6''. I prefer a decent amount of height difference but not so much that it makes kissing awkward. Plus, during sex I'd like to have my face near her face, and not have her buried somewhere in my chest. LOL

[sparkdog]

Why does she have to be shorter than you?

[Red_Dragon]

I'm around 5'3 annnnnnnd... I don't care.

media0.giphy.com/media/149R89yoMrIFgI/giphy.gif

[SandPlanet]

But you do care. You have often expressed that.

[Red_Dragon]

@SandPlanet Care to have a "dream height" for my "dream girl". I don't have a "dream girl".

[Red_Dragon]

@SandPlanet *Care to have a "dream height" for my "dream girl"?

[SandPlanet]

Ah I thought you meant you don't care about your own height.

[Red_Dragon]

@SandPlanet You mean that I wish to be taller or something? I like my height the way it is.

[Asker]

Haha I love your gif. I would date a 5'3. Don't worry :) and thanks!

[SandPlanet]

It's just that I often see you complaining about women not liking guys your age, that's all. So in a way, you definitely do care.

[Red_Dragon]

At Asker: Awww thanks 😊. I honestly don't know my height, but I'd say 5'3 5'4. I'm around the average height for a American female because most are around my height that I've seen.

[Red_Dragon]

@SandPlanet Well yeah from that aspect I do, but I don't wish to be taller. In those opinions of mine that you see I also state that my height has never been that big of a problem for me. Even tall girls are attracted to me for w/e reason. It's just that I can empathize with other short guys seeing as how I'm sure some girls don't even pay me any mind because I'm short. At least that's what I presume. Many times they are short themselves too. If they don't pay me any mind I don't pay them any mind, but overall it seems I'm rather attractive among the female gender.

[milightman]

I'm 6'2 so I like girls to be 5'5 to even my height in heels. It just feels a lot more intimate when they're in my face standing up. But honestly height isn't too much a factor for me, but that would be nice too.

[Asker]

Makes sense and I totally get where you're coming from. I hate looking up a foot at my crush XD so awkward! Thanks for answering!

[G-Daz]

I'm 6ft and my ideal height would be 4"11 to 5" 5

Somewhere in that range but it's not very important, just so long as she's shorter. I like thick thighs though I think a lot of short girls tend to have that and look meaty

[Asker]

Okay! I'm really good at being shorter than everyone :) thanks for your opinion! I don't have thick thighs though XD

[G-Daz]

You're welcome lol

[Cdeboo111]

I am 4'11" and like tall guys, it nice to see them like girls my height

[sparkdog]

Why not 5’6-6’0?

[Leoking]

I'm 6'5'' and love short girls, however it really is awkward when she has to stand on tiptoe and you have to bend down to kiss her. That won't stop me, but god if it is difficult.

I still like being this tall, though.

[JHAYES317]

I’m probably around 5’6 1/2” but I will often round to 5’7”. My ideal height would be anywhere between 5’8” and 6’3”. For women as far as dating goes, I don’t care about how tall or short they are as long as they aren’t stronger or heavier than me. Like they could be 6’2” for all I care as long as they weigh less than me. I suppose if I had to pick an ideal height for a girlfriend maybe 5’1”, but again, weight is much more of a factor than height when I’m thinking about relationships.

[JHAYES317]

To clarify: When I said ideal height I meant the height I would have liked to be not the height for dates. For dates, I don’t really care about their height given other criteria is met

[1932ct]

I'm 6'2" tall an my ideal height for woman is 4'7" to 5'

height isn't really a deal breaker most the time if she's under bout 5'7" but if she's shorter it is a bigger turn on

[Asker]

You're my crush's height! And I'm only 5'1 so I'm glad some tall guys are up for dating midgets like me. Thanks :)

[1932ct]

hahaha your far form a midget. lol 5'1 to 5'4" is pretty common in woman and I believe your find many taller guys given the choice will prefer shorter girls

[Cdeboo111]

Yay!!! Tall guys like short girls is perfect! I am 4'11" and would like to date someone around your height.

[1932ct]

well I'm available.. lol

I think you short girls are just hiding , around here is seems hard to find girls under 5'7" about most of the time. You two will not have any problems because of your height finding a guy.

[Ensiferum]

Im 5-11 and I dont care at all about height. In fact, I would like to go to korea and marry a girl there so finding an tall Asian would be mission impossible

[Asker]

I'm Korean! :D And I know many tall Korean girls, actually :) I'm the shortest one wherever I go. I'm probably in the top 3% when it comes to short people and it sucks. Most of my friends are 5'3 to 5'7.

[Ensiferum]

hey, do you live in korea? cause I have a couple questions I want to know the answer, and I would be really happy if a nice korean could help me with that ! :)

[Asker]

I'm a Korean but I live in America. I lived in Korea longer though :) sure! What are your questions?

[Asker]

I'd love to help you and I like it when people ask stuff about my country! I'll answer to the best of my abilities :D

[Ensiferum]

Great, I really want to go teach and live in Korea, but im a bit scared of going there :P So I want to know a couple of things

#1 Is it true that Koreans are racist ( mostly older people) (and mostly towards black)? Do you think a nice Canadian man will be ok? I talked to a lot of Koreans already ( ty Starcraft :P) and they were all very nice ( just like you), im even friend with one on FB
#2 If I go there, im not looking for sex or sleep with a lot of girls, but just to find 1 girl that I love and marry her, but I heard that most Koreans girls dont like to marry foreigner, and prefer Koreans, is it mission impossible for me? And also, I heard the parents dont accept often that their son/daugher marry a foreigner, would you sayits true?
#3 My English is pretty decent, and and I could probably teach it to younger kids without problem at all, but im a FRENCH Canadian ( quebec), do you think school/hagwon would still want to hire me?
And btw, thank you, you are really nice. :)

[Ensiferum]

*im white, btw, just to not confuse you

[Stuff_and_stuff]

I'm 5'7 and the ideal height for me is maybe about 5'9 to 6'2. I don't want a guy too tall because it'll feel awkward. And no guy shorter than me because I'll feel awkward with that too...

[Asker]

I see your point. Thanks for your opinion! :)

[Eric644]

what if he was your height or maybe just half an inch shorter

[sparkdog]

What if he’s your height?

[InquisitiveMale]

I'm 6'1 and my ideal height is 5'7-5'9.

I like legs, so height has some barring when it comes to basic sexual attraction- it's important to a degree.

[Asker]

Ooh. Interesting. Quick question. What if a 5'2 girl had really nice legs that were long for her height and what ir a 5'7 had normal, somewhat ugly legs?

[InquisitiveMale]

Then I'd bend the 5'2 over and be happy doing it.

[sparkdog]

Why not same height

[sovetskii13]

I don't care about height that much but if I had to choose then I would want to be around 6'0 and for my girl to be around 5'8. Something in that area but it's not a must.

[meatballs21]

I am 6'2, my dream height for a girl is 5'0, my realistic height is 5'5 and below. Is height important to me? Yes, I find petite girls to be a lot cuter.

[Asker]

Aww glad to hear that! :) my crush is your height! Thanks for answering :D

[been_waiting]

5'0" is realistic lol

[meatballs21]

@been_waiting: Yay! That's what I want to hear.

[xCutesyLolitax]

I'm 5'6! o: But sometimes, I wish I was 4'11!!! :c However, I try to always grateful for the height God gave me :) although... i think short girls are really cute and pretty! ;~; ^_^

[xCutesyLolitax]

Oh, oops! o: Umm, i think my dream height for a boy would be 6'3? o: Yes, about 6'3 :)

[Asker]

I wish I were your height! :( not too tall and not a dwarf like me! Haha thanks for your opinion! :D i wish my crush likes short girls :/

[Asker]

My guy friend is 6'3 or 6'4 and I love his height btw!

[xCutesyLolitax]

Oh, but since you're short, I bet you're probably super cute and small and a lot of guys love cute, short girls!!(: My crush is 6'3! o: However, he only sees me as a little sister, more than anything else ;~;

[sparkdog]

What about a guy your height?

[witchprincess]

I'm 5'4". I wish I were 2 inches shorter or 3 inches taller, but it's whatever. Height is very important to me when it comes to choosing a partner. Ideal male height (to me) is 6'4".

[Asker]

I'd love to be your height. It was my realistic dream height when I was 12 years old and a midget.. but that didn't happen, sadly. Anyway height can be very attractive, I agree. Thank you for answering :)

[Eric644]

that's a whole foot, you would look like a child compared to him lol. so what if the guy wasn't tall but you still fond him attractive (he was average height or even short but looked tall because he had a lean lanky body) I'm 5'7 but because of my thin lanky- proportioned body, i have the build of a man that is 6 ft tall

[RandomStudent]

I'm 5'6 my ideal height in a girl is 4'10-5'5. Most girls prefer taller attractive guys though, so my realistic expectation is 0' because no girls are into me.

[Asker]

Your height itself would not keep me from dating you. AT ALL! My dad is your height and my mom is 5'4. They still got married because my mom saw how great of a person my dad was :) you'll be fine! But I know how you feel because sometimes I feel too short for a lot of guys. Looks like guys consider 5'3 short, and I'm shorter than that.. aww I know how you feel but trust me. Let's not worry about heights too much. Most girls don't care too much.

[RandomStudent]

90% of guys like short girls better/equally though, so you have nothing to worry about. Thanks for the support though, Imma keep trying to get a girl but I'll probably end up a 40 year old virgin haha

[Eric644]

actualy men care less about height than women

[slowbiwankanobi]

Well I'm 6ft tall and I Very much prefer guys 6'4 -6'9

I have dated everyone under the sun though ranging from 5'7 - 6'5 and though if i like the guy height doesn't matter. I prefer someone much taller than me because guys tend to feel emasculated by being the same height or shorter

[Eric644]

i don't mind being shorter, i love tall girls :)

[TallGirlChaser]

What if he likes being shorter?

[TheEquestrian]

Height doesn't really matter, though I would be lying if I said I didn't like guys who were taller than me.

[Asker]

Exactly how I feel :)

[sparkdog]

How tall are you?

[RedThread]

I don't care about height at all. Tall is easier though since I'm quite tall.

[Asker]

Thanks for your opinion! :)

[Cdeboo111]

How tall are you?

[RedThread]

@cdeboo111 around 6'5"

[poppunk]

I don't have a dream height, as long as he's taller than 5 feet and shorter than 6'5 it doesn't matter, I don't give a flying frick. If it holds any relevance i'm 5'2

[icantwait]

I love short girls, 5'3 and under are preferred. Although it won't stop me from dating taller ones.

[musicbrain5]

At least you're open to dating a taller girl. So many guys are not.

[icantwait]

@MusicBrain although I prefer shorter, I've dated girls that were a few inches taller. I'll admit I did feel a little strange but I have no qualms with doing it again

[musicbrain5]

How tall are you, just curious.

[Asker]

Good to know some people loves short girls. Thanks btw!! XD

[Asker]

*love

[icantwait]

@MusicBrain I'm 5'11, upper end of average for a guy

@ QA yeah definitely ^_^

[musicbrain5]

Cool. I am just a couple of inches taller than you. Also I wasn't getting your mentions because there's a 5 at the end of my name, lol.

[icantwait]

@musicbrain5 ugh my phone... keeps autocorrecting lol

I saw your reply on my question, I wouldn't mind 6'1 at all.

[Cdeboo111]

You said 5'3" and under, how short are you willing to date?

[icantwait]

@Cdeboo111 hmm I don't know an exact number, pretty short though

[icantwait]

@Cdeboo111 if i had to put a number on it maybe like 4'8? I'm 5'11 so that would be about to my chest

[Cdeboo111]

I am 4'11" so I guess I am in that area ha ha 😁

[icantwait]

@Cdeboo111 yup you're perfect ^_^

[ThisxLovex]

I'm 5'4 and I think 5'10-6'0 would be ideal, but height is not a deal breaker as long as he isn't shorter than me.

[slackercruster]

I don't care, midgets up to mid 6 feet. If she is 7 feet it is getting too tall... but even then...

[teawrecks]

I'm 5'1 and 5'8+ (but under 6'2) is my ideal for a partner.

[Eric644]

i'm 5'7, i really could care less about height. But ideal for me would be 5'3 to 5'10

[Ghosty]

Smaller than me, but not a midget. (no offense). Which is both, un- and realistic.
It's not, but preferably fulfils my first point.

[sparkdog]

Why does she have to be smaller than you?

[RealDedication]

I am 6'0 and I wouldn't date you you fcking shallow heightist munchkin. I could stomp on you like a fly lol

[Eric644]

Lol!!!

[Mgoods]

Between 6-6'4. I may go above that, but I wouldn't go much lower. I'm nearly 5'9, I think.

[Eric644]

so what if the guy was under 6 ft heck what if he was, God forbid, shorter than you but you found him to be attractive, would you look beyond his height or would you feel that conforming to society's standards is more important, what's more important finding the best partner or not being mocked by your girlfriends for not being with a tall guy, i hope you pick the first and not the latter

[Mgoods]

I'd date him. The poster asked for ideal height, I said between 6-6'4, maybe higher, but not lower.
The question was about ideals. Not that it should be made a issue if I chose to date exclusively over 7ft. My preferences are exactly that... mine.

[Mgoods]

@Eric644

.

[Eric644]

oh ok, good to know that :)

[TallGirlChaser]

Why not same height or shorter?

[sparkdog]

What about a guy your height?

[FlyingTurtle]

I'm 5'6, I'm with a guy who's about 6'2, and I think it's perfect :)

[front2back]

I'm 6'2"
I'll date any girl between 5'-6'.
My ideal is around 5'4".

[Asker]

Thank you for answering! You're the same height as my crush so glad to know you would consider 5'1 :)

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'1 my dream height for a guy is 6'0(realistically) my unrealistic height for a guy is 7'0. I love tall tall guys

[Asker]

Hey we're the same height! :) and I don't think I've ever personally met anyone who was 7. 6'0 is a realistic and nice height :) thanks for your opinion!

[Opinion Owner]

No problem

[StickStickity13]

The girl I'm talking to is probably less than 5 feet and I'm about 6"2 to me it doesn't matter

[Asker]

Yeah I think height tends to be overrated. I don't care how tall a guy is either.
Do you like or dislike her height? Think about it if you've never done so because that's like my crush and I right now. he's like 6'3 and I'm 5'1 :)

[StickStickity13]

I love her height it makes me feel very masculine.

[Sully1310]

im 6'2" and prefer a girl who is 5'2"-5'7",, i like a girl to wear high heels and if she is too tall she's to close to my height and its just weird

[Asker]

Haha that might be kind of weird XD I wish I were like 2 inches taller :( my crush is your height. Is 5'1 too short?

[Sully1310]

I wouldn't say 5'1" is too short,, short girls are cute

[Asker]

Okay thank you :D

[Eric644]

If a girl wears heels and is taller than me, so what !!! A girl can be taller than me and still wear heels I couldn't care less

[RationalMale]

I have to wonder about 5' tall girls who want 6' tall guys. Dreaming big, I guess.

I'm 5'10 when barefoot, and ideally I'd want my woman 5'5, 5'7.

[nakedalligator]

I'm 5'10" and I love short women, ideally somewhere around 5'.

[sparkdog]

Why not same height?

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog Because I like to be taller

[sparkdog]

Why?

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog Same reason I like to fuck females and not males. It's what I find attractive, I like the fairer sex, smaller, feminine. Same reason most females prefer taller men, they want to feel protected and small, in contrast most men want to feel like they have someone that they can protect, something to that effect.

[sparkdog]

I don't know dude I like girls that are my height

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog and I like girls shorter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[sparkdog]

So is it a deal breaker if she’s taller?

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog I would say so, I did date a girl the same height as me for a long time and I did always wish she was shorter. I don't think it's really fair to stay with someone who your not really attracted to, however that might be, maybe somethings sometimes can be overlooked or you can even grow to like, but something like height in particular I think has a stronger effect. I personally don't see myself dating someone taller than me.

[sparkdog]

What’s wrong with it?

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog nothings wrong with it it's just not what I want.

[sparkdog]

Ok but why

[nakedalligator]

@sparkdog why not

[jakeofalltrades]

I prefer if she is shorter than me, I am short for a guy and I would feel extra self-conscious about my height if I had a tall girlfriend

[Eric644]

That shouldn't be an issue, if the girl is taller than you SO WHAT!!! Do you really feel that self concious about your height that you would eliminate a girl that could be perfect for you because she's taller. Look it shouldn't make you feel any less of a man to be with a tall girl, and look at the bright side height is usually inherited from the mother, so you will have tall kids :)

[jakeofalltrades]

I know its messed up, but I can't help it

[Eric644]

Stop worrying about it, there are cute girls of all heights, tall girls are just as feminine as short girls.

[Syndia]

I don't care about height. It'll just feel weird if he/she is smaller than me but that's pretty much it.

[sparkdog]

How tall are you?

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'9" and I date girls who are about 5'4" or 5'5"

[sparkdog]

Why not same height?

[TheSpartan]

No, I don't have an ideal height for a woman. That's silly.

[Aleth]

Me being 6'4 its something I've never thought about, 99.999% of girls and boys are shorter than me and that's the way I like it!

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'8 and would prefer 6'1+ only because I feel I'm reasonably tall for a female and a 5 inch difference is cute.

[TallGirlChaser]

Why not same height or shorter?

[RaeBae]

5'6-6'3 is ideal. Ima 5'3 shorty

[SnowHearth]

Above 5'5" is 0K (I'm 5'8.5")

[Asker]

I looveee your height :) and I agree!

[COCOCHANEL]

from experience, ideal would be 5' 7 - 5'10

[Asker]

Thanks for your opinion :) I like guys that height too!

[sparkdog]

How tall are you?

[SkaterDude]

as long as she isn't a hobbit , i am cool with it

[Anonymous]

5'11" Ideal height of a girl 5'6" - 5'9"

[Asker]

I wish I were that tall! X (

[Opinion Owner]

Find a guy 5'5" - 5'7" heaps of them will like you XD

[Asker]

Hope so! :) thanks!

[sparkdog]

Why not 5’11?

[RaceAgainstMachine]

I’m 5’8, my ideal is 5’6-5’10

[TallGirlChaser]

I’m 5’8, ideal height for girls is 5’9

[Anonymous]

I’m 5’10
Girl i want: anything under my height

[TallGirlChaser]

Why not same height or taller?
