Search Results: man''s body turn ons

Tall women constantly defend their preference for a taller man as necessary because they need a tall man to make them feel short. Simultaneously while proclaiming that they love their height. They laud height as a supremely masculine feature while turning a blind eye to the natural extension of their logic - that their bodies, as tall women, are also "masculine" in nature. Now I don't personally believe that masculininty or feminity is determined by the length of your limbs, but here's why this logic bothers me.

To maintain this dissonance without calling themselves "manly", tall women instead place the blame on short men. It is short men's fault that they feel like giants when they stand next to us. It is short men's height that is the problem. If we are strictly speaking by societal norms, then the short man's height is only half the problem. If the man is too short to be a man, then we could also say the woman is too tall to be a woman. If tall women can refuse to date us because we don't make them feel feminine, why aren't we allowed to place the blame on tall women for making us feel "un-masculine?"

The short answer is that it's not a viable option for the average man in today's dating market. However, this line of thinking is what leads to tall women believing that short men are incompatible and undesirable. Why are women who deviate outside of gender norms acceptable but the men who do so are shamed? Why are tall women's insecurities with their own bodies turned on its head and projected onto short men?
