Would you date a girl thats 5'9+?

[swervealishious-bae]

For everyone that's reading this my question would you date a girl that was 5'9 and up and your either shorter or taller.

yes

no

[Anonymous]

Tall girls are only ones I date. I'd feel weird being with a short girl because I'm tall myself.
It's not at all true that tall girls are less feminine - there's nothing unfeminine about having long legs and looking majestic in classy dresses. Tall girls have this beautiful charisma. They look like queens and they turn heads like no other girls can.
Height can, in a way, be compared with hair length. Girls with short hair are considered less feminine and most guys have a strong preference for longer hair. To many, it's even a deal-breaker. However, long (*for a guy*) hair in men does not make him less masculine (his masculinity would depend on other features) - some girls may think so, but a lot of girls prefer a guy whose hair isn't completely short. In the same way, tall guys are considered masculine and most girls have a strong preference for a guy to be tall. To many, it's even a deal-breaker. However, being a tall (*for a girl*) female does not make her less feminine - lots of guys prefer tall girls. After all, they can give you tall kids so it's instinctive to want them.

[swervealishious-bae]

do you prefer tall girls.

[Opinion Owner]

Yes I do. They're the best! Thanks for the MH.

[swervealishious-bae]

whats mh?

[damionrain100]

No, most of these men typically don't have standards. I seen SO MANY of these questions and men all saying the same things. I have also seen many variations of these questions like would you date a fat girl and the majority of men say yes. The vast majority of men don't tend to have standards on this site. I would not date a woman that tall because I can't see you as feminine. Just as equally as you can't see a short man as masculine. I am 5'11 by the way. In heels you would be well over me and I am already pretty tall. The average male height in the U. S. is 5'9.

[swervealishious-bae]

so you wouldn't date a tall girl

[kaylaS91]

what about a woman being 5'9 or taller would deem her to be not feminine? Like how would her height detract from any feminine qualities?

[damionrain100]

HELL to the NO

[damionrain100]

" I would not date a woman that tall because I can't see you as feminine."

[damionrain100]

Society tells men that in order to be masculine one of the traits you must posses is height. Hollywood reinforces this standards along with dating norms. In order for him to be considered tall, by extension ,"masculine" you must then be short, by extension, "feminine" @kaylaS91

[swervealishious-bae]

so your saying you can't see me as a female just because I'm taller tham you!!!

[damionrain100]

Yes, that is exactly what I am saying. Even if you are close to my height, I can't see you as feminine. I am 5'11 and in heels you would be taller. So I can't see you as feminine. It is NO DIFFERENT than you NOT being able to see a shorter man as masculine.

[damionrain100]

It amazes me how men don't seem to have standards.

[swervealishious-bae]

Firts off I like shorter guys okay second, Im 16 I don't wear heels third, your just so wrong how can you not see a woman as a female if there taller. As long as I have a bigger butt than you, bigger breast than you, and longer hair than you I am feminine okay I like Boys period

[swervealishious-bae]

who tld u that

[damionrain100]

Tell that to Hollywood's portrayal of everything. Tell that to musicians like Meghan Trainor who portray men as male models in her music videos, and by extension, women as short. Tell that to 50 shades of Grey, Anastasia, short, skinny, and passive, and then, Christian Grey, tall, muscular, and rich. Most women reinforce these stereotypes. Do you not see your female friends wanting taller men?

[kaylaS91]

@damionrain100
lol... to each their own. I just find it amusing that despite me having D-cup boobs, long&toned legs among other things that society would also classify as 'feminine', my height of 5'10" would just deem those to be insufficient qualifiers.
I think that generalization would depend on how each individual defines masculine/feminine. My boyfriend is not taller than me, but I don't view him as any less masculine than a guy who's taller. In my eyes, neither the height someone's born with or the amount of time they spend at a gym does not make them any more or less 'manly'.

[damionrain100]

Tell that to Hollywood's portrayal of men @kaylaS91, see example listed above

[damionrain100]

and by extension women, according to sociological conflict theory. @kaylaS91

[swervealishious-bae]

you must on fed up bast*** okay thats messed up to me andd all the other tall girls out there! We were born this way it's like you're asking us to cut off our legs so you can be taller!!

[damionrain100]

No, Hollywood and most other women are asking you to do that by wanting taller men.

[swervealishious-bae]

where do you get these answers from? google? lol

[swervealishious-bae]

your really a bast*** for what u said

[damionrain100]

Sit tight, I am about to give you the statistics

Also go on eharmony and type in "he has to be six feet tall". So my point stands firm

[swervealishious-bae]

an you stop

[damionrain100]

I just did. Accept, you height as fact. These men in the comment section are definitely not in the majority. Countless statistics say otherwise and the hardest part of it all is that, I can keep going. Your height is one of your imperfections according to society, LIVE WITH IT.

[swervealishious-bae]

I HATE U

[damionrain100]

Don't hate me. It is the vast majority of women and society that put this standard on men and by extension women

[swervealishious-bae]

2 bad I really do hate u your a jerk

[MarcusBorino]

I’m 5’7-5’8 I really like girls the same height as me! 5’6-5’9 is perfect for me!

[ElisaSprinkles]

Why should anyone care what society says... Why are you letting yourself be judged by society... Are you that blind... Hollywood tells girls to starve themselves, do you agree with that too... Do you really think that because the majority do it it's right. And to the whole I won't date girls taller than me cause I wanna be masculine... Are you a hermaphrodite that you need to find some kind of way to make your masculine side shine. Like bruh... Are you dumb... Cause this has my mind blown... By agreeing with Hollywood you are agreeing to pedophilia, sexual harassment, rape, suicide and murder. If you asked the majority of people to choose to either kill someone for $50000 or work their ass off at a proper business 80% would say they'd kill someone... You are agreeing with the majority of people... When the majority of people are messed up beyond explanation.

[RationalLioness]

I wouldn't date a woman period. But if I were, I would prefer she was the same height as me or close to it.

[YourFutureEx]

No. I think only 10% guys would date taller girls and only 5% would date without hesitation. damionrain100 is absolutely right but two things are incorrect that, it's not that users here don't have standards, the reality is, most people give sugarcoated opinions. Furthermore, it is untrue that if you are tall then you're not femine, but it would make us less masculine. It would considerably make us so submissive and extremely insecure.

I, myself being 5'10" would date girls having height upto 5'8" so if she's on heels then she would be at same height as me.
If I'm really in love with her then I won't mind her being 5'10". But 5'11"+, I don't think I have enough courage.
Not just me but 'almost' every guy.

[swervealishious-bae]

Hey! What do you mean you date someome taller than u thats messed up and "almost every guy" no you can't say that because about ^0% of the population for guys there all over 5'10 so it's kinda messed up about what u just said

[YourFutureEx]

What are you saying? -_-

[Tractorbeam]

You might not get so many takers while you're young, because young boys have less confidence , are easily intimidated and don't want to be seen doing anything unusual.
Confident men won't be put off by your height. I like tall girls about your height.
My girl is about 1/2" taller than me, but it's close enough to even.

[Watermelonoma]

better question. Would a girl 5'9 date a guy that is 5'5? The problem usually isn't would a guy date you for your height, but whether or not the girl will date the guy for THEIR height. Girls are way more picky about the height issue than men

[swervealishious-bae]

hey I would

[Watermelonoma]

you're a pioneer in your field then xD

[BarbaraP]

I have a friend who's 5'9 and she's dated a guy who was 5'6 for a long time. But it's true it's not very common

[Watermelonoma]

@BarbaraP

yeah thats kinda why i tend to pursue gals who are shorter xD. Its not that im not attracted to tall girls, but i just assume that the answer will be no so i dont bother normally! Nice to hear from ya this morning by the way =)

[BarbaraP]

Hey hey :D
Yeah, I understand that. I'm 5'7'' and no shorter guy has ever approached me. One time I found out that this guy wouldn't tell me he liked me because he was shorter. But I think everyone should feel confident enough to do it, there's no such a thing as "your league" >:|

[Watermelonoma]

@BarbaraP

hey i whole-heartedly agree with you! I think the main reason i dont bother though is that i feel like id be just wasting my time, when i could be spending my efforts on the shorter gals around, but at the end of the day i actually wouldn't mind dating a girl way taller than me, like 6'0. I mean the height thing is just a non issue to me really.

[BarbaraP]

Woahhh 6' is pretty tall! May I ask... how tall are you?

[Watermelonoma]

@BarbaraP

I'm 5'5, so shorter than you are, hah. Yeah i would probably go as high as 6'0. I don't really see any good reason as to why i should feel insecure about dating a girl who is taller. The problem though is usually with girls not wanting to date guys shorter than they are so i dont often bother

[Watermelonoma]

girls want the feeling of being protected and feminine, which they say they dont get from a guy who is shorter than they are

[BarbaraP]

That's great that you don't feel insecure about it. There are men who are your height or even my height and feel very insecure without a real reason. I mean, people will always have preferences, just move on if you don't happen to be exactly what they like >:)

[Watermelonoma]

@BarbaraP

can't argue with that =) I bow down to your logic

[BarbaraP]

Eheh I'm too smart >:)

[ManThatKnewTooMuch]

I already have. Sadly you girls overlook short guys... figuratively and literally.

[swervealishious-bae]

no we don't I like short guys

[danielle21]

[swervealishious-bae]

[ManThatKnewTooMuch]

[MarcusBorino]

I’m 5’7-5’8 I love girls the same height as me! 5’6-5’9 is perfect!

[Anonymous]

Of course, provided I liked her and she wanted to date me. Her height wouldn't be a problem anyway. I dated girl who was 5'9 last year actually... I think I might have been to short in her eyes though, at 5'7.

[swervealishious-bae]

I don't think that

[Opinion Owner]

You wouldn't consider me too short? (I know some girls your height would.)

[swervealishious-bae]

hell no that's a great height

[Opinion Owner]

I think girls like you are rare, most seem to want a who's at least their height.

[UnknownXYZ]

I don't have a height preference so the answer is yes. This height thing never gets old. *sigh*

[swervealishious-bae]

what do u mean "height thing never gets old"

[UnknownXYZ]

I mean that this is prevalent issue that always seems to come up every now and again. Are you insecure about your height or something?

[swervealishious-bae]

no I'm mot insecure I'm just thinking that whys there a problem with taller girls dating shorter guys

[UnknownXYZ]

People do have height preferences. Another thing is that time and time again women tend to be shown they are pickier about height than men are. But some people argue that it's just an attraction thing. You claim that you find short guys cute so you are ok with it but what if you didn't find shorter guys attractive, you would just be in same boat as most girls who don't find shorter men attractive. Men assume that they will be rejected for being too short so they just don't bother with girls taller than them.

[UnknownXYZ]

As for you being 5'9, think of it as a relative thing. Guys who are 6 inches taller than you wouldn't care being you are 'short' to them. Oh and that's another, people want partners that they will make them feel masculine or feminine when standing next to them. As I said, a 6'3 wouldn't have his masculinity 'as risk' because he will tower other you etc. This is what annoys me about having no height preference because even though I don't give a shit about height, I know other girls do and I will be judging based on how tall I am which would suck if it doesn't go in my favour.

[Mesonfielde]

Nah, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't the other way around, me being 5'7".

[swervealishious-bae]

yes we wiuld short guys are cute.

[MarcusBorino]

I’m 5’7-5’8 I really like girls the same height as me! 5’6-5’9 is perfect!

[SomeoneImportant]

I woudn't, because I'm not that tall.

I'm pretty positive they wouldn't date me either.

[swervealishious-bae]

hey I like shorter guys. And why do you say that how tall r u.

[SomeoneImportant]

Girls want a guy taller than them, which is why you rarely see couples where the guy is shorter. Even guys prefer their girl to be shorter than them.

[swervealishious-bae]

so you think taller girls reject shorter guys.

[MarcusBorino]

Depends on the girl. Would you date a guy shorter than you?

[Anonymous]

The answers should be here:

www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q1430609-do-boys-date-tall-girls

[Chris011]

Yeah, I would. Tall women tend to be very attractive.

[MarcusBorino]

How tall are you? Would you let her wear heels?

[MarcusBorino]

I am 5’7-5’8 and I prefer to date girls the same height as me! I would absolutely date a girl that’s 5’9-5’10 no problem!

[DarthGameRuler]

I would definitely date a girl 5’9-5’11. I’m only 5’8!

[LauraMarx]

yes I definitely would :) I am shorter

[Ryosanada]

Yeah, height is not an issue.

[swervealishious-bae]

thank u another boy that doesn't judge by height.

[Ryosanada]

If people are compatible, nothing should really be judged.

[swervealishious-bae]

ik but some boys think so

[Ryosanada]

They're young. Maybe they'll grow up.

[MarcusBorino]

I’m 5’7-5’8 I like girls the same height as me! 5’6-5’9 is perfect!

[abw121290]

Height is not really a criteria for me.

[SnowHearth]

0.5 inches taller than me! Sure, why not?

[MarcusBorino]

[Omar5881]

Yeah but not taller than 6'0

[MarcusBorino]

Did she wear heels?

[iFarted]

@MarcusBorino sometimes, the second time was just to spite me lol

[MarcusBorino]

Was it a problem?

[iFarted]

@MarcusBorino naa, it was a little awkward at the beginning cause i wasn't used to the stares but later i didn't mind it. I also had someone to grab things off the top shelf so even better. 😂😂

[MarcusBorino]
