Search Results: tall men

I’ve known this guy since high school lets call him Eric so basically he is tall very stylish very hygienic abit chubby and facially I would give him a 2-3/10 anyways at school and college thé girls would avoid him and never talk to him unless they needed to they would always giggle when he’s not there they liked some of his outfits but they didn’t say it to him they just got there male friends to ask where he got the clothes because the girls were too grossed out and scared to even talk to him, he could throw hands too and one of the popular girls boyfriends started a fight with him and obviously the girls boyfriend lost the fight then the next day all the girls were giving him dirty looks and then throwing paper balls at him even teachers make rude remarks to him about how he looks

A question specifically for short men.. as in men 5'6 and lesser...

How do you feel about being short? How has it affected your self esteem , your relationship with opposite gender and your dating /mating opportunities?

Also how tall are you.

I noticed over the years that women bring up height excessively more then men do. They not only talk about height in romantic scenarios but with platonic / professional interactions with men as well.

But every time women mentions a man being short, it’s almost always a negative connotation. Even if they like the short guy they will say something like “well he’s not very tall but he’s really cute or funny” or something.

But if a girl doesn’t something else about the short guy (his personality, looks, etc.) they virtually always bring up his height. Especially if they reject the man romantically.

But at the same time guys are less prone to say “well she’s really sweet & cool despite being overweight” out loud. We might be thinking that but we are not allowed by modern culture to say that because it’s “too mean” or something.

I am 6ft so fortunately height isn’t an issue for me. Like anyone I notice other people’s heights in most situations but I don’t immediately factor that into my judgment of people.

I once dated a girl who was 5’ 11’’. Despite my favorite female body type being cute, petite and athletic, her being tall and skinny was virtually a non issue for me. It did make things slightly more complex in bed (shorter girls are more versatile) But I didn’t really care that much. It was like factor number 37 out of 50 for me.

Also I don’t notice height at all in platonic and professional interactions with women or men. I don’t asume a really short guy or a really tall girl might have a negative personality right away. Some short guys do have napoleon syndromes. I’ve met a few short loud mouthed dbags. But overall that stereotype is often exaggerated.

I guess height judgment is evolutionary for females. But women need to understand that men have no control over their height whatsoever.

If you are more attracted to taller men then fine. But if you don’t like a shorter guy than don’t throw out his height as one of his “faults” like he had a choice in the matter.

it doesn't have to be the case 100% of the time and it doesn't have to be based on what is considered tall globally. a 5'8 guy is tall in Guatemala. so I'm not asking your opinion on whether or not guys under 6' are illogical. I'm asking if there is a higher degree of logic in tall men in your experience. I do know women rate tall men are more intelligent than average even though IQ is the same. which is another thing to clarify, someone who is relatively stupid can actually be more logically oriented than someone who is highly emotional and smart. Einstein famously believed playing violin cultivated a healthy balance of emotionality and logic
