    I prefer a tall man (5'10" and up), BUT if my husband is meant to be short then I will have to learn to love his shortness!

    I'm pretty short myself, so it's usually not an issue, but sure. :smile:

    I would love to say that I would date men shorter than me but I do prefer men who are at least 5'10". I'm 5'3". Its a preference like some men like blondes or a particular body shape or race. I don't think it is wrong to have a preference. I can also own that I probably would not consider dating a man who is under 5"8". Once again just my preference. A lot women don't care though and being a short man is not a bad thing

    I'm 4'11" so I don't give much thought to it...most guys I've met/known are always taller than me!

    eww hell no!

    I'm guessing there are more men who wouldn't date rude women than women who wouldn't date shorter men. There's a way of being honest without being mean. You should add that to your to-do list.

    Probably not. I'm only 5'3" though so it isn't too hard to find a taller guy. My husband is 6'2" and that is perfect for me!

    At first it was big NO. I'm 5'8 and I thought no way. I had a few boyfriends that were short and it bothered me a little. Then I married my hubby who is 5'5 and the only thing he ask me not to do is wear heels!! I dont believe height should matter anymore. height doesnt make the person.

    I like men of all heights but often in the past I would worry abotu the "short man" syndrome. It may have been my luck but every short man I dated:

    1. had a big truck
    2. had a piss poor attitude

    I know no man can be stereotyped but I sure do tip toe into a situation where a man is short or shorter than me.

    I married a shorter guy :) I'm 5'8" and he's 5'6" (although claims 5'7"). I don't mind it and he loves it. Loves it more even when I wear high heels :)

    No. I'm 5'7 and I like to wear heels. Plus, a really tall man is extremely attractive to me.

    I admit that I would always LOOK for the tall guys. I would say someone was cute or whatever but, never really acted on it much. MIND YOU, I am 6'2"!! It HS it was difficult ebcause my friends would get mad at me if I didnt date the shorter guys. I think my ex was 5'10" and that was the shortest I was with. All the guys I dated were always taller then that. The only guy I dated that was taller then me was my ex before my husband and he was 6'6". My husband is 6'1" and he LOVES my height! It is a personal preference, just like with anything else so, if you Prefer women shorter then you, then that is what you PREFER! But, I wouldnt let height stop you because of what you think THEY would say. If you like a taller woman, go for it...you have the same shot as you do someone shorter. :)

    No.

    I should expand!! I'm 5 ft 9, my fella is 6 ft. I love to feel "small" in a man's arms, I couldn't get that feminine feeling with a shorter man. Sorry if that offends, but that's my preference.

    My geek-tastic self always thought Seth Green was a little cutie and I know he's not the tallest person in the world. ^_^

    Reality though, I'm 5'1" and I've never dated anyone shorter than me... But my personal preference has always been guys 6'+. It's just the type I've been naturally attracted to on a first sight animal basis. :ohwell: I never rule out anyone, if after I get to know and spend more time with them, I do develop a genuine attraction though.

    (Happy me, my current guy happens to be exactly 6'.)
