Where are all the Amazon women?

Search for Totally Tall Women - thats a group. I dont belong there (5'0), but saw it on the forum. :happy:

Hey
I'm 5ft 9, not as tall as you but quite tall. I'm a big boned girl with size 8 feet and a large bust..........*sigh*
Feel free to add me if you want.

;o)

Im 5 foot 11 and totally know where youre coming from, feel free to add me

At 5'10", I feel your concerns. My goal weight is 150-160ish. Add if you'd like!

Just 5 feet 9 but understand how you feel! Please feel free to add me :-)

hey not that Im taking it too personally,and being a member of a few threads for shorties,I think its great that you want to find people more similar to you. That being said the term "vertically challenged" is actually a little bit discriminating. By using the word challenged you are implying that our height gives us a setback or disadvantage in life. I for one and definitely not held back by my height in the least.....okay I have to use a step ladder to reach my top shelves....nbd

It's a common saying. It's a play on the overly-PC nature of our society. I doubt the OP meant any offense.

I am 5'11 and have a goal weight of 150, so I can relate to what you mean by seeing so many women with starting weights of 140, etc. I also have seen a disturbing amount of men online say they won't consider dating a woman "above 140", etc., or whatever weight they deem "heavy." Society almost never seems to take into account a woman's height in reference to weight. I am at the healthy BMI for my height, but society still deems me "fat"? I call bull****. /end rant

Men don't date tall women because they're intimidated! They're scared. Luckily my 5'8" husband of almost 10 years loved me the day He met me (at 220) and loves me still...even with my 5" heels!

I think that can be very true! and some people are just shallow and think men should be taller than their women, i for one am taller than my boyfriend and it doesnt bother me so i dont let people get to me, same as my sister she is 6'3 and is married to a 5'8 man and it has never bothered them

Sorry to contribute to the thread derailment, but I just had to weigh in on this... My most recent bf was the same height as me (on a good day) and it hugely affected my attraction to him. I just have the hots for tall guys. It's not shallow. It feels...chemical. I genuinely tried the short guy thing and can honestly say that it just does NOT work for me. That's NOT why we broke up...not even close. But I would NEVER date a shorter guy again. In fact, 5'10 or 5'11" would be my absolute cut-off point moving forward.

I don't think it's shallow at all. It's like saying "I don't date morbidly obese people." It's not shallow. You're just completely incapable of being attracted to that kind of body.

:drinker:

I'm 5'10" or 5'11", depending on the day (scoliosis) and have a size 11, size 12 shoe. I wear a size 13 ring and have been told by several doctors that I should not go lower than 170-180 pounds. I learned to make jewelry because I need a 9.5" bracelet, and I really don't have a lot of fat around my wrist. My bones really are that of a football player. My arms are long, long, long....always hard to find clothes with arms that fit.

I'm 54 years old, so maybe that's partially why the docs tell me to aim for the high weight. I've always wanted to be 149 because I was in the 150s in high school and all of my friends has much smaller frames and were in the 130s and 140s, even though they were my height.

I'm 261 this morning (like everyone, I move around a lot in the numbers) and I have a very looooong way to go.

That’s not strictly true, you can’t lump us all together as your husband proves. It’s quite often women that want a partner taller than themselves, at least those shorter than yourself in my experience. How many times have you heard a girlfriend say ‘I like x but he just isn’t tall enough for me’ ?

There are probably lots of men who want a shorter partner for threatened ego reasons too but, personally speaking, I love tall women – by definition they have longer legs. I’m not fixated though, any height is good.

Are you mentioning your feet because you think they're large? Because I'm only 5'2" and my feet are 9W. :laugh: Hope that makes you feel better about your very proportionate feet.

But Shazz is in the UK, which makes her size 8s larger than your size 9s!

I'm 5'10", and I've always LOVED being tall! My goal weight is around 161lbs (based on previously being a UK 10-12 at that weight) but TBH it's not set in stone. If I'm 170 but around a UK size 12, I'll be pleased. Happy to join the amazon club!

Random aside, but I cannot BELIEVE you are 48!! Stunning!!

LOL! Thank you! :flowerforyou: I can't really take the credit - I just have good genes I suppose! (You look pretty awesome, yourself!)
