On a purely physical level, do you think that short guys are unattractive? (Page 2)

Question

My boyfriend was getting changed yesterday and I told him he looked sexy. He looked back at me weird and said "really?" Like, he was genuinely surprised that I thought he looked sexy. I asked him why he didn't think he was and he replied with "I don't know... I just... I don't know". He doesn't like talking about his feelings haha. After more prodding he told me that although he is comfortable being short, girls think it's a "horrible trait" and that he "had to accept that girls will never find [him] physically attractive." He's not an unattractive guy, he has beautiful green eyes, a nice face and a good body (and great hair XD). I think it's so ridiculous that he actually feels that way just because he is short. One does not come to a conclusion like that without actually experiencing it. I get that a lot of girls prefer taller guys but do you actually think that shorter guys are just physically unattractive? I'm talking purely physical attractiveness. My dad is short so maybe that's why, but I've never seen shorter men as any less attractive or less masculine. We're both about the same height (5'4/5'5), I prefer it that way. What are your thoughts?

Taller men command a sort of dominating presence over shorter men.

No, not at all. My husband is 5'7 and that is still too tall for my tastes.

No my crush is shorter than me, he's at my chest. Everyone has different preferences.

I like taller guys but there is nothing wrong with short guys.

I think if the guy is shorter than other guys that can be okay but if he's shorter than you then that can make him seem less attractive to you and other people too.

crazyincalifornia · Answer

I don't think so. I mean if he's like just 5 feet tall we might look weird together Im like 5 7

TheSpartan · Answer

Yeah, women don't like short men. Pretty much every study on the subject has determined that height is the number one trait women find physically attractive and look for in men.

Depends how short. If he's shorter than me, I will most likely not find that attractive.

I'm around 5'5" and I try not to let it bother me. As a F2M, I know I'm not gonna grow taller if any.

I am 5'6 and I could careless if a girl judge me by my height. I am still going to be me and nothing going to change, so girls take my height or don't even bother.

katie315 · Answer

in my personal opinion i like taller guys but that doesn't mean shorter guys are unattractive

Zulfiyya · Answer

I usually say that I want a taller guy but I liked a guy that was in a grade lower then me and he was 5'1 (I'm 5'9) so there's a big height difference. As long as the guy doesn't care that I'm taller then I won't care that he's shorter.

well.. a guy can be attractive whether he's short or tall but I'd prefer having a guy taller than me.

VioletCouple · Answer

I've had a girl tell me she wouldn't date me because I'm too short. I'm 5'8". Most women find height enormously sexy. And shorter guys know it.

grahamcracka · Answer

I've never thought of height as anything important. I thought it was preferred if the guy was taller then the girl but not a deal breaker

Nope, short guys can be veeerrryy sexy and tall guys too.

Yes they are

Anonymous · Answer

Um yeah... being short is being doomed. Being under 5'5 as a guy is equal to having no ass or tits on a girl. You're going to be overlooked majorly.

Anonymous · Answer

As long as we're at a similar height, I'm cool. Doesn't mean that short people are unattractive! It just means they're short.
