Search Results: are these feelings real

First of all, I'm 5'8 but I'm not insecure at all. So give it to me straight, I promise I can handle it.

So I have this theory that girls mainly like taller guys because they generally feel more protected around tall dudes. But this feeling doesn't always hold much weight in the real world.

I agree that with the average 6'3 dude vs the average 5'8 dude, the 6'3 dude has a weight and reach advantage if they were to fight. But I'm not talking about averages.

Let's say you had to pick the most attractive guy out of two guys to date.

Guy A: He is 5'8, but is bigger and stronger than most guys. He does strength training and MMA and has been doing so for a long time. He can beat 99% of guys since most guys have no training whatsoever. And just to clarify, he is not steroid-like bodybuilder type big. He is natural and athletic.

Guy B: He is 6'3, lives a mostly sedentary lifestyle. He might do a sport that's more cardio-based like cycling or whatever. He's pretty skinny, but not to the point you think he is sick. Just average skinny. He's not a pussy, he is willing to fight when push comes to shove. He just has no real experience so against Guy A he wouldn't stand a chance.

You are objectively safer with Guy A.

Let's assume for the sake of this question, that both guys have same facial features and everything. Just a different body-composition and height. They also have the same personality, just different skills.

Also please ignore other factors. For example: "Guy A probably lives in the gym and I wouldn't like that"

I can also understand if you are a girl who is taller than 5'8 it might be a turn-off. If that's the case please assume Guy A is your height or an inch taller and add the same amount of height to Guy B.

Looking forward to hearing your opinions!
