    I didn't like this thread either. I just don't want men thinking this is how most women think (about height).

    6'8 isn't. But height is consistently the primary factor used by women for sorting potential mates.

    Kinda like if you had a thread about thin women with enormous boobs. The "enormous" part is generally impractical fantasy, like 6'8 height. But most men will appreciate the concept of narrow waist women with big boobs.

    I'd suggest a different analogy. The comparison is more like saying that all women should start out fit and every time they are cruel or cranky, they gain 10 pounds, so that they become more overweight and therefore less appealing.

    That's essentially what she's saying... The shorter you are, the less appealing you would be. And maybe that is true to her. But it does men a huge disservice overall.

    Just my emotionally charged feeling. :)

    Yeah, where to even begin? The OP is claiming that short men are somehow awful men. :noway:

    I'm not going to even respond to the other guy. :yawn:

    It's funny how some people think that every man or every woman thinks and wants exactly what they think/want. Stupidity.

    This whole line of thinking is....Gah, no words for this!!! :grumble:


    It explains why I am so awful.

    I just need to get lifts, and I will become a better person!

    Well, I like men to be taller than me. My preference. Does that make me shallow? If it does, fine. At 5 foot 2 I don't have a problem there. Even short guys can find smaller girls.

    The tallest guy I dated was 6'7". I broke up with him because I got tired of people asking him "How's the weather up there?"

    My hubby is 6'7". He always gets asked if he played basketball. He never played basketball growing up in Germany but he did try playing in a church league here in the US. He walked away with 2 broken fingers, a cracked rib and a strong disdain for basketball.

    Actually one thing I love about his height is when he goes to our daughter's second grade school functions. The little boys flock to him and tell him things like "I want to be a giant just like you". It's kind of cute.

    I feel like the only people I attract, and am attracted to, are ridiculously tall.

    Lets see- first 6'3..... then the other was 6'4..... the last guy I dated was 6'6

    Wonder what the next one will be?

    So.
    Tall = Good
    Short = Pathetic

    Wow.

    Let's apply the same reasoning to color, sex, or any other physical characteristics you can think of.

    We've already had people trying to identify a master race based on physical characteristics and heritage. Been done. Didn't work out well.

    I'm suddenly very happy to be 5'10. Shallow, nasty human beings who insist on height won't be attracted to me and I can better ignore them.

    Well, I guess I like tall men. But in perspective, I'm nearly 6ft myself, and I have no complexes about that, but I have dated shorter guys, and I feel quite awkward kissing standing up. But anything in the 6ft range +/- range is totally fine, am not a height nazi, and I don't need X number of inches above me to feel "safe" or womanly or whatever. Sooo many qualities in a man are of higher priority.

    Also, sometimes I get the vibe from rather tall men that I must be automatically interested in them because I must be so relieved to see a taller man or something? Oh yay?
    And they'll say it's nice to see a tall girl, but they'll make practical arguments, like "woo! Won't hurt my back hugging you!" or "you don't have to stand on a stool to kiss me" *eyeroll*

    Whereas I much more often get from guys of similar height or shorter that they can't stop obsessing about my ridiculously long legs, and think of me (and treat me like) a freakin' goddess or something, and, I-don't-know, they'll see my height as part of why they consider me gorgeous.
    So I prefer that to just being a practically sized piece of female person. Haha.

    (Seriously tall guys, stop using my vertical convenience for small talk, hah).

    The love of my life is 5"8" on a good day; I'm 5'4" (almost). He's hot. I used to know a couple who were 6' - the lady, and 5'5' the gent. They adored each other. So what's the height go to do with it?

    My friend is 6'2 & she always struggles to find a man as tall or taller than her. Thank goodness I'm a shorty & my partner is 6'2.

    I have to say, a nice tall man always catches my attention.

    I am 6ft. I guess a couple inches taller would be cool but Id never want to be 6"8. That is no life to have!

    So, I have a freakish obessesion with ridiculously tall men. You need to know that part in order for what I'm about to propose to make any sense.

    I think all men should reach a peak height of, say, 6'8" and every time they purposely do something awful to someone they are dating, they automatically shrink an inch.

    And I don't mean like, "I'm a crazy, needy b!tch who gets upset all the time for ridiculous non-reasons" type stuff. Just like, cheating or hitting or whatever.

    I just think good men deserve to be big and powerful and the crappy ones deserve to look as small and pathetic as they really are.

    Discuss.

    P.S.: If you are into women, tell us what you think would be a good reward/punishment along these lines except for chicks!

    6ft "8 wooooooooooooooow

    OP that whole post was fricken epic. but the bit I quoted above is the most epic of all. thise b!tches are fricken everywhere, pretending to be normal girls until "SNAP" they got you in the honey trap and the neurosis comes out.

    I think nasty, mean, cheating girls should become progressively uglier and gain weight for their crimes.

    I like sweet good hearted girls, even if you are pretty, but you are a vapid bi4rch you wont get no play.

    peoples exterior should mirror their interior.

    Oh for Pete's sake. Wondering who Pete is. Everyone has their own preference, I prefer men taller than me, some women like them shorter. Who cares?

    I like this - 8846218853_05b6e2a810_n.jpg

    I doesn't make either of us wrong. Just preference.

    I wish I saw more people taller than I am. I'm 6'5 and I rarely do. I'm hoping the younger generation of up and comers will sort this out for me.

    diets are becoming more deficient due to fast food stealing the children! so probably they wont be taller. bro science!
