khujo56 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 OK So last night i went to my friends b-day and me being single for about 1 month now, i was looking at all the people at the party. What i noticed was that all the ladies who had boyfriends where all tall. Me of course only being 5'7, i'm by no means tall. Now the question i ask is dowomen like tall guys. I saw ladies who were like 5'2 - 5'3 and there boyfriends were like 6'2. Is that just in general these days that women find taller men attractive? Link to comment
the yang to the worlds yin Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 No, everyone has different preferences, what you saw was either your insecurities clouding your true vision, or just coincidence. Plus i'm 5 foot and generally try to find someone about 5'7. Who wants to stand on there tip toes to kiss aguy Link to comment
xblondyx Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Going for guys that are way tall is a bad thing for me, personally. I went out with a guy who is 6"7! I'm only 5"4/5ish. It looked incredibly stupid i tell you lol (but i guess i loved him so i didn't can), also it was hard as he had to bend down and stuff so he got a bad back and i got a bad neck lol! I go for guys who are about 5"7-6"2 now. I would never go out with a guy that tall again. It was way to hard for us. Link to comment
lovemycoffee41 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Being a tall gal myself (I'm 5'9") I tend to find taller men more attractive. I have dated shorter guys and it just doesn't do so much for me. That's just a personal choice, I'm not downing shorter guys, but it's just like people who say they only date red heads, etc. Link to comment
Tigris Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 If a girl likes you enough she won't care if she has to stand on steps or a wall to kiss you. Link to comment
AntiLove_SuperStar Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 My boyfriend is 5ft 7ins..on a tall day! Im 5ft 6.5ins...it's almost TOO perfect in my opinion...swweeeetttttt jaaayyysssuuusss hes hot. Sorry *fans self* Link to comment
renaissancewoman101 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Wlfpack81, you're funny about the money and muscle mass. I do agree with you that I have noticed that a lot of women go after men who are extremely tall. With me, since I am so short, I would rather date a guy who is not TOO tall because it would make me feel too self-conscious. Both my serious ex's (my current ex and my best friend) weren't that tall. Also, I would find it hard to kiss a really tall guy. Link to comment
Caldus Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Women do seem to go for the taller guys in general. I don't think it's a coincidence either. I see the same sort of thing every time I go out to places. It's mainly one of those 'social pressures' where the guy should be taller than the girl because it signifies protection. But yes, some muscle could make up for the height sometimes. But what really makes up for it is confidence in general. If you have that, it doesn't matter how tall you are. You'll be attracting lots of women. Link to comment
the yang to the worlds yin Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Mmmm, well I do have to admit, the protection aspect of having a built man around you is very nice. But since when do social pressures dictate what people actually do? Ever notice how many people break the social standards to follow what they want? Link to comment
Caldus Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 You tell me. Most people let social pressures dictate their lives. Link to comment
kellbell Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Hey there, Well, I am close to 5'8" so yes, I am extremely attracted to tall guys. I don't know what it is but tall men always get my attention. My BF is 6'2" Link to comment
RandomAdvisor Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 There's a difference between saying women are attracted to tall men and saying women will only date a man because he's tall. This comes up every so often. I've seen numerous studies every few years which have proven women are generally more attracted to taller men. Link to comment
Dako Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I can guarantee being tall isn't enough to attract women. Trust me. Link to comment
RandomAdvisor Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I liked your first reply better Dako. Why'd you change it? Link to comment
Dako Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Off topic and maybe not too helpful. Link to comment
RandomAdvisor Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I thought it was a nice way of illustrating a point. It wasn't at all off topic. I for one happen to love your sarcastic sense of humor. Link to comment
skyblue1 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 i do like taller men i'm 5,2, but if i met a guy who wasn't that tall and i really liked him i will give a chance. Link to comment
Taurusgirl Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I don't date men based on their height. I am 5'6" and have dated men from 5'8" to 6'2". I do have to say that I am generally not attracted to men who are shorter than me. Link to comment
jurupa Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Why I am I getting the feeling that being 6'6" is to tall? But then on the other hand I see girls take double takes on me so for me its a coin toss on each girl I come arcoss. Link to comment
Sylph Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Are Women Attracted to Tall Guys? I should certainly hope so, I'm 6'3". The ironic thing is the tallest person I've dated was 5'3", the shortest 5'0". I'd actually like to be with someone who isn't dwarfed by me for once, somewhere around 5'5"+ but everywhere I look all I see is short people. My life sucks so hard ;_; Link to comment
Dako Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Like many things, it's not the size that satisfies. Or at least that's my line for some obscure reason... Link to comment
AwdreeHpburn Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 yes....all women like tall men. wait, what I meant to say is that NO women like tall men. No wait, I mean some do and some don't. Link to comment
Dako Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 LOL! I think that covers it! I like tall women... and the short tall ones. Link to comment
Caldus Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I prefer the medium tall ones myself. Link to comment
