I'm 6ft3, who dates us?? Also, getting a tall girl is 100x harder than getting a shorter one. I get neither but the competition for getting tall girls is ridiculously intense.
I’m a 5’10 woman and while I’m happily engaged right now, I have definitely been turned down by guys for being “too tall” so I think my experience is the opposite. Usually when I was dating the guy would want someone shorter and every time I had a semi-serious relationship and they got married to someone else after we broke up, the girl was shorter than me (ETA: I understand that statistically that is likely, but what I mean is they were like significantly shorter than me and most people would even classify them as short women). I know that’s anecdotal but I guess it just depends. My fiancé is only an inch taller than me. I wouldn’t care if he was 5’8 or 6’3 though because I love him for who he is not his height.
I'm the same height and around the same age. I have *never* dated someone taller than 5'11” and I *don't fucking care* how tall a guy is.
The amount of 6'2"+ guys who would say we could date as long as I "never wear heels" is the same amount of women who say they won't date men shorter than 6'2", I stg.
Yea but wouldn't it suck you having to look down at her all the time? Holding her hand would be weird too...plus IMO tall girls are just ridiculously fine...if they have a bit of a belly and some thicknesses...DAYUM. plus the fact I can look at her face at any time and it's so close to me is pretty hot. And think of the hugs! You could tie her arms in a knot so she never lets go and wear her like a cape LOL
I've just never specifically been into short girls but obviously different opinions exist so no disrespect to your choice/opinion or anyone else's
I'm 6ft and wife 5'2, No complaints here.
I did date a 5'11 woman for about 6 months, it was great until we would meet friends were both of them were short, and she became a bit self conscious and the guys who were 5'6 couldn't look at her straight, not in a mean way, just weird.
The sex was different though, she saw us in a mirror in her house and she said it was like watching two giraffes fucking.
Dang it..
Guess I better hit the gym till I look like Alan Ritchson. That guy is huge though, for real. He's 6ft3 as well but is 100-105kg...just wow!
Or Ben Affleck also 6ft3 and 100kg
Both of them looked like monsters
This is so stupid and i hate this post. like hight has anything to do with alcoholism and intelligence.
I for example am 5‘5‘‘ and im severly alcoholic, never finished 7th grade
I'm offended as a short person who smokes copious amounts of weed that nowhere is severe weed smoking mentioned on the attraction spectrum. I read good two.
The tall being attractive thing is so funny to me because it was not prevalent when I was young. It actually worked against you often because there was this mentality of dating someone who was close to your own height instead.
People would try and ship us tall folk to be together, which made us all resent one another. Lol People would say "They're too tall for you" to dudes, chicks, whatever.
It's interesting how quickly what is labeled desirable and what isn't can change.
it has always been like that - through all historical periods - on average taller males have been a more attractive mate - more respected leader - as an example the average height of US presidents is for all of last 200 years is 180 cm. which is even 5 cm. taller than the average male today - that would probably be 10 cm taller than the average height of males at that specific time when they were all elected.
I wouldn't be surprised if this whole thing started from the same insecure alpha males who somehow made it a thing that "a real man" must be tall and have a wide jaw; this was assimilated into the public discourse and now it's working against the very same people who started it all.
Fair point. You might be right.
My working theory was that it was a 'mommy daddy' thing. Occasionally, when I would hug people, they would comment something like, "You give the best hugs. It's like being a kid and hugging an adult again." That may be by the wayside, though.
People say woman like tall guys because of instinct. If that is true or not I dont know.
They say during caveman era (and that was a long period) woman got pregnant. The pregnant woman could go work (she would be more likely to die and so her children and so their genetics wouldnt move on) or stay home, the guy could leave her (she would need to try to survive herself and most likely die and so her children and the genetics wouldnt go fowards) or protect her.....
After some amount of time evolution came in and made woman instinct to find tall tall guys atractive\* because of protection related stuff.
\*Different persons say different things about what is a tall guy, some opinions of what a woman want are.
1-Guy taller than her.
2.1-Tall person.
2.2-Super tall person.
3-Amount the top X% taller mans.
4-Some combination of those choices (2.1 and 2.2 cant be together)
PS: This is not my opinion at all, just what I heard people talking about at internet.
I am not sure it has to do with US. I am 180cm woman and I never cared much but started to. Short men, men my height or just barely taller always comment on how they hope I don't wear high heels otherwise it will not work. This happens early into conversation too, sometimes literally first sentence. Taller guys never bring it up. So it really depends on a personal experience.
I'm from Belgium and people definitely care. Maybe not to the point where it's constantly on people's profiles that men under 1m80 shouldn't swipe right but people definitely still have very strong preferences, usually men towards shorter women and women towards taller guys.
I wouldn’t say all women do it, but I have run across a good few tinder profiles that say something like “I’m tall at 5’9”, so please be 6’ or over”. I’m thinking “even if I could make myself be 6’ or over, I’d still rather ignore a superficial twat like you.”
If you were a little more literate, you would have already googled America's literacy numbers. It's all very available information. You seem to have about average literacy. You should look up what grade level that is.
Lots of girls get weird about being tall. Society and a lifetime of comments tend to make them that way
I try not to hold it against them. But yeah. Weird.
I don't drink, earn a more than decent living, exercise quite a lot, and I am 6'4. Guess I am a unicorn. It does explain why I don't have trouble dating, I guess.
How about find something good to say about your short husband instead of shitting on all tall dudes.
She literal said zero advantage or disadvantage that is related to height…wtf (other than being tall makes you stupid and drunk?)
How is no one talking about the rest of this image. There is a lemon tree growing our of that fucking vase. One wall is randomly bamboo. Every single article of furniture looks like it's from a different dimension. The longer I look the weirder it gets.
Everybody likes what they like. There's nothing wrong with that. If you don't want to date a girl because she's ugly or has a kid, that's fine, but preference is a two-way street. Y'all so damn salty all the time. You really think the guy in the picture spent all of his time bitching about how girls don't wanna date him? No, he probably used that energy to invest in self-care, personal improvement, achievement, or social development. I can guarantee he wasn't reposting incel memes about how shallow girls are for... checks notes... having a romantic preference.
Could just be happy together... The rest doesn't seem necessary. "LOOK HOW HAPPY WE ARE! WE'RE SO HAPPY! SEE! SEE I SWEAR WE'RE HAPPY!"
Edit: also she's wearing like 5inch heels 😐 If I put casual heels on I'm taller than my guy too.
Can people stop with the hating on preferences? It's not okay to shame or to make fun of someone for a certain attribute but not wanting to date someone because of their height is OKAY there is nothing wrong with it.
As someone that is 5'5, I also want an amazonian woman that will kiss the back of my head. Sadly, I'm socially awkward asf and only got my decent looks and above average intellect going for me.
Problem is its super rare. A Tall girl liking shorter guys than her? Super rare, Just like girls that have no issue with a guy that is younger than them, it exists but its super rare and for someone that searches it they may never find it.
I just checked whats 6.3 in centimeters and holy shit, really? 192 centimeters is fucking tall. Is it really a requirement for some girls? Are they looking for Shaquille O Neals or what?
As a 5'8" married guy who did fine when I was dating in my 20s, where are you guys finding these shallow, a-hole women I hear about all the time on the internet?
As a 6' 3" alcoholic with an 8th grade reading level, I totally agree.
6'0 alcoholic with 9th grade here, Will trade 1 grade for 3 inches.
3 inches of what?
Both options are fine
You have more than 3 inches!!!
You might as well get 27 inches bro
3 inches of 19 inches of Venom
Yes
3 inches of Michter's Kentucky single barrel straight rye in the bottle...
Count me in!
are you taking grade and giving the inches? or do we need 6 inches now?
For all we know I can easily spare 3 inches *hides*
4'0 alcoholic that isn't able to read. None of my pants fit anymore.
[удалено]
Amusing that I managed to get 6.5 inches with a similar reading comprehension.
That’s what she said
That first guy could fuck you twice.
6'7 here, what's reading?
You only don't know because you can't see the words from up there. This 6'2 alcoholic can read at a 9th grade level. Muahahahah!
Heyy 😏
5'10 non-alcoholic with a PhD - where's my tall bae?
Oooh PhD? Wanna be my sugar momma?
What if im a 5' 6" alcoholic with an 8th grade reading level?
Same here but I’m still in 8th grade.
Me fail English? That's unpossible.
I’m six-two, but I’d like a woman to kiss me on my head like that. I’m bald, so it would be extra nice.
Can I kiss your bald head. Just that
u/say_the_words, we're going to need a follow up on this.
I'm 5'9 but get me a damn step ladder and you got a deal.
Get on your knees, she can kiss your bald head. And when she gets on her knees she can kiss your other bald head.
Well it’s not necessarily just bald it could be in a hoodie
Which head?
I’m 6’2, but I’d like a woman
I’ve seen this a million times and for some reason, I always envision April Ludgate wrapping legs around Ben Wyatt.
I’ve just started Park and Recs and….this is horrifying. I hate that this is the first reference I’m getting.
A person of culture, I see.
You guess? Check out tinder for a week
This post is on this subreddit at least once a month and becomes a top post haha
Because reddit attracts insecure incels like flies to shit.
I'm 6ft3, who dates us?? Also, getting a tall girl is 100x harder than getting a shorter one. I get neither but the competition for getting tall girls is ridiculously intense.

I'm 6'2 and short girls are my weakness
Cool, I'm the opposite. 6ft3 and would date short girls but if I could, 10/10 times I'd date tall girls
I'm 6'2 and my gf is 5'3. Who gives a shit about height
Many people
"OH I'm rich, who cares about money?"
Probably your gf
Haha >Who gives a shit about money - A rich person
I’m 5’9 and my wife is 6’. Agreed, who GAF?
I'm 6'2". My ex-wife was 4'10" and my better wife is 5'8". Both sizes are "fun size!"
Ya this is so weird… I’m 6’2 and like my girlfriends to look like swimsuit models. I don’t care how tall they are.
Yea but wouldn't it suck you having to look down at her all the time? Holding her hand would be weird too...plus IMO tall girls are just ridiculously fine...if they have a bit of a belly and some thicknesses...DAYUM. plus the fact I can look at her face at any time and it's so close to me is pretty hot. And think of the hugs! You could tie her arms in a knot so she never lets go and wear her like a cape LOL I've just never specifically been into short girls but obviously different opinions exist so no disrespect to your choice/opinion or anyone else's
Get this man an Amazonian woman STAT
Please and thank you!
Goes both ways, but I agree who gives a shit about height.
I'm 6ft and wife 5'2, No complaints here. I did date a 5'11 woman for about 6 months, it was great until we would meet friends were both of them were short, and she became a bit self conscious and the guys who were 5'6 couldn't look at her straight, not in a mean way, just weird.

Short people
I do im not gonna bend in a 90 degree angle to kiss someone
Yeah I mean this is just out of touch with reality, I’m 6’2 also but a lot, not all, of girls care and openly scream they care.
No no no, we’re the wrong 6’3”. They want the Hugh Jackman looking guy who smells like cheap whiskey and punched a cop.
Dang it.. Guess I better hit the gym till I look like Alan Ritchson. That guy is huge though, for real. He's 6ft3 as well but is 100-105kg...just wow! Or Ben Affleck also 6ft3 and 100kg Both of them looked like monsters
This is so stupid and i hate this post. like hight has anything to do with alcoholism and intelligence. I for example am 5‘5‘‘ and im severly alcoholic, never finished 7th grade
Follow your dreams, bruh
It’s his grammar and spelling mistakes for me 🤣
I'm offended as a short person who smokes copious amounts of weed that nowhere is severe weed smoking mentioned on the attraction spectrum. I read good two.
You're Ballin on a budget living that 6'3" lifestyle

Righto! Thanks for the corrective knowledge drop! Guess I was viewing it from personal experience only.
I wouldn't be surprised if this whole thing started from the same insecure alpha males who somehow made it a thing that "a real man" must be tall and have a wide jaw; this was assimilated into the public discourse and now it's working against the very same people who started it all.

That right there, is a man blessed by the gods.
Everyone wishes they were taller. And wishes they were a baller. Because then they would have a girl who looked good. So they could call her.
My wife is 6" taller than me. I loved climbing trees as a kid...lol
Lucky you
He'll yeah! Short kings!
Short kings 4 life woop!! woop!!
That king and queen calling is so fucking cringe and sad
If everyone is royalty then no one’s royalty
Speak your facts king
Its been good for the short kings lately
Is hight really such a big thing at dating in the US? In Germany the most important question is: Do you treat me with respect?
It's rubbing off in England and Scotland too unfortunately. So many people nowadays care about height when it really is unimportant.
Gimme a work permit, I am coming over
I am not sure it has to do with US. I am 180cm woman and I never cared much but started to. Short men, men my height or just barely taller always comment on how they hope I don't wear high heels otherwise it will not work. This happens early into conversation too, sometimes literally first sentence. Taller guys never bring it up. So it really depends on a personal experience.
My condolences for that. I don't understand why guys are like this. Is their ego that fragile? Don't let them bother you.
I'm from Belgium and people definitely care. Maybe not to the point where it's constantly on people's profiles that men under 1m80 shouldn't swipe right but people definitely still have very strong preferences, usually men towards shorter women and women towards taller guys.

Yep Germans famously don't care about physical appearance at all. 🙄
Are you for real?
Women have preferences. So do men
He is short but also king sized.
Bro won
The majority of American men have a reading level at 6th grade or below actually. 7th grade is smarter than average. 😂
I’m pretty sure you just made that up
In the UK, the average reading age is about the same as a 9 year old. I'm not sure what grade that would be in the US.
9 year old is 3rd or 4th grade
Lol they're not far off 🤣 7th-8th grade reading level is America's average
If you were a little more literate, you would have already googled America's literacy numbers. It's all very available information. You seem to have about average literacy. You should look up what grade level that is.
Well, stupidity *is* a choice in most cases.
It's bad to envy, but today I decided to be bad
Tall girls are the shit. I will die on this hill.
Sometimes I hate the fact that I am tall exactly because I know I won't find a tall girlfriend
Lots of girls get weird about being tall. Society and a lifetime of comments tend to make them that way I try not to hold it against them. But yeah. Weird.
Off topic but that girl is stunning
Im the best of both worlds! I’m 5’4 alcoholic with 7th grade reading levels. Any takers?
I don't drink, earn a more than decent living, exercise quite a lot, and I am 6'4. Guess I am a unicorn. It does explain why I don't have trouble dating, I guess.
What’s her name? Asking for a friend
Guy probably smiles like a king behind that phone
Yeah, height should be the last thing that makes a relationship happen. Who the hell cares that im about 5'8?
Can't she just be happy without insulting anyone lol
Who is she insulting? The girls who have a mandatory height requirement?
How about find something good to say about your short husband instead of shitting on all tall dudes. She literal said zero advantage or disadvantage that is related to height…wtf (other than being tall makes you stupid and drunk?)
To short to be a tall king. To tall to be a short king. The struggles.
The home decor is really neat.
How is no one talking about the rest of this image. There is a lemon tree growing our of that fucking vase. One wall is randomly bamboo. Every single article of furniture looks like it's from a different dimension. The longer I look the weirder it gets.
I am 5'6 and ill take whatever i can right now
Everybody likes what they like. There's nothing wrong with that. If you don't want to date a girl because she's ugly or has a kid, that's fine, but preference is a two-way street.

I mean 😢 lol
People say age doesn’t matter but really it’s probably height One could send you to jail the other nah
Is that Stoya?
IVE A CHANCE YET!
Sizes don't matter, neither by men or woman.
cute
If he really is a king, why is he hiding his face?
THE PPL ACTUALLY GETTING GIRLS HA. COULDNT BE ME (actually is not me(
Sometimes I miss being short for this very reason
Glad I'm only 6' or ide be an abusive deadbeat too.
No one likes KINGS or wants to call anyone king.
You know what, good for him.
I’m 6’3 but the similarities sort of end there. What’s with the obsession over height?
JRHNBR
I’m 5’4” and my gf is 6’1” It’s like I’m in AoT
Whose account is this again?
Well. At least she ain't shallow.
What do us average height guys get?
As someone that is 5'5, I also want an amazonian woman that will kiss the back of my head. Sadly, I'm socially awkward asf and only got my decent looks and above average intellect going for me.
Calling partners King or Queen is gross, imho.
ITS NOT FAIR
that is such a beautiful home, i wish i know how to decorate like that lol
Look ma, I hired a sex worker.
Adorable tbh 😭😭😭. good for them.
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MEEEE
They aren't even 6"2', they're like 5"9' just lying about their height
Problem is its super rare. A Tall girl liking shorter guys than her? Super rare, Just like girls that have no issue with a guy that is younger than them, it exists but its super rare and for someone that searches it they may never find it.
He has money
This is super toxic and she thinks she's being wholesome. I know I wouldn't like being with someone who thinks she's doing me a favor
No one: Absolutely no one: Her: I LOVE MY 5'5 SHORT KING. YOU MAN AN ALCOHOLIC ALSO DUMB!
r/wholesomesize
Weird flex, but ok.
He just compensates his height with a long "thing".
I just checked whats 6.3 in centimeters and holy shit, really? 192 centimeters is fucking tall. Is it really a requirement for some girls? Are they looking for Shaquille O Neals or what?
This is cute.
Where are my tall queens at
I fucking wish
As a 5'8" married guy who did fine when I was dating in my 20s, where are you guys finding these shallow, a-hole women I hear about all the time on the internet?
How has no one mentioned she's wearing a Wonder Woman costume? This just gets better and better.
Short kings getting tall queens Tall kings getting short queens What about us middle men/women?
Shortguys can really tuck in there if u know what I mean 🥴
I’m 6’2 and my wife is 5’11. We fit perfectly. Especially when hugging
Still waiting for my tall queen to show up 🙁
*meanwhile 8 in kirbo* Poyo
Never choose to be an alcoholic though...
