    My husband is only 5'5", but he's an exception. Generally I prefer taller guys, at least 5'10". I'm only 5'2", but there is something about a taller guy that is just really appealing. I like wearing taller shoes as well, so they would have to at least be my height with heels. Again, exceptions can always be made for the right person :smile:

    I'm 5'7", and I probably wouldn't date anyone shorter than 5'9." That said, I generally like taller men. 6'+

    i'm 5ft 4. For a guy, shortest I'd say would be about 5ft7/8. Though my boyfriend is 6ft1

    My first husband was 5'2" and had little man syndrome. My current husband is 5'4" and has it too. I'm 5'9". If I was dating again, I'd go large. I love the feeling of being dwarfed by a tall man. Incredibly sexy!

    I would absolutely not care. I'm 5'5" though so I guess most men would be at least my size, and if shorter, not by much. Not including girls because I don't go that way, lol.

    Height doesn't matter as long as he is secure about it. I would never have dated a guy who is shorter than me and told me that I couldn't wear heels.

    I am 5'6 1/2" so I would say 5'7" and up.

    I feel like "the man" when I'm around short men, regardless of how macho they are. Having to slump over & bend my head down to hear someone talk in a club feels very awkward.

    With that being said, I think there could also be a such thing as "too tall." I'm not sure how I'd feel about 6'5" or higher. I don't want to feel like I'm in a different time zone or that you may not see me & trip over me lol

    Oooh this too
