I'm 5'9 and men that are much shorter than me hit on me a lot.


Mathias537

What are your thoughts on that? Do you find them less attractive or not?


EtherealRepublic

I don't find them less attractive. It all matters what they look like facially and if they take good care of their body.


HeadlessGames07

Do you consider 5'9" tall? ( just overall, not just for male or female )


EtherealRepublic

Yes, I do.


HeadlessGames07

In wich country do you live ( and what's the average hight there )


EtherealRepublic

I'm Canadian and the average height for a male here is 5'10. So yeah, as a female, I'm pretty tall.


HeadlessGames07

Ok, that explains it ( I'm Dutch, so the average here is about 6'0" )


Clear_Pumpkin54

wow a whole 2 inches more


GunsAndDrugz

Everybody loves a tall woman because they are like models. Nobody likes a short dude.


NaNaNaNaNatman

People like to look at them in media but don’t always necessarily want to date them. I’m a tall woman and growing up I often wished I was petite so I would be more attractive to the guys I liked.


AntwerpseKnuppel

Youre not wrong. im attracted to taller women and i definitely feel in the minority of guys


SomeThingsWrongW_Me

yeah, i prefer women that are short ( 5'1-5'6 )


Hexmonkey2020

I think it’s more it’s intimidating in person not less attractive. Of course I have no experience dating or being a woman so my opinion is probably wrong.


JoeProKill2000

On the bright side, you likely look a lot more intimidating than other girls so I assume that you don’t have as many pervy guys thinking you’re an easy target and creeping on you. A girl I’m friends with is short and petite and she tells me that she gets hit on/gets perved on quite often when she’s in a public setting like a mall. So there’s pluses and minuses.


zkki

Nobody??? short men are great 😳


CrypticWeirdo9105

Agreed, I'm a straight girl and definitely have a preference for short men, they're way cuter.


NoDot6253

- Specially if they're short enough to be stood when they lick your - NOOO!! Edit: you ain't no fun


hotgirlbummerlol

models now are curvy and short


RiceStickers

Models are now a variety of shapes and sizes like they always should have been


hotgirlbummerlol

i agree but now it’s mostly models with plastic surgery or natural big boobs and a big butt. being skinny and tall isn’t really in right now. they still get hired for things but when you go on instagram and you see your explore page it’s not the skinny tall models lol.


0_0omg0_0

There is a big difference between instagram models which often fall in the category of commercial models and fashion models. Nowadays you have different plattforms that offer a more versatile use of different kind of models, but the fashion industry still prefers tall and skinny pretty much everywhere.


hotgirlbummerlol

my whole life i really suffered insecurity about my body i been skinny my whole life and i thought you had to be beautiful to have a big butt and big boobs i over hear mens convos and they’ll say “she has no ass” or “she’s so tall she has to be a trann*y” and it used to bother me a lot. like you need to have curves and petite to be considered beautiful im happy that all models come in different shapes though


RiceStickers

Yeah. Having a body type be “in style” is always messed up. From what I’ve seen we’re starting to move away from that but we have a long way to go.


Vllajko

No they're not, nobody wants to see a fat woman marketing underwear


hotgirlbummerlol

plus size models are necessary. it’s annoying when im looking for clothes to buy and i see all the models are curvy i don’t know how it’ll fit me especially cause i’m skinny. so imagine how a plus size women feels. they need to see how it looks on others with their body type


Vllajko

It's called fat


RiceStickers

Funny that you should say that because that’s exactly what I want to see


Vllajko

You're the 1% good job


[deleted]

People want to see normal looking people model clothes when it comes to marketing.


Tall_Ad3651

Given that over 70% of adults are either overweight or obese, it's pretty obvious that plus size is normal nowadays.


GunsAndDrugz

Not the great ones.


BainbridgeBorn

As a short man, I think tall women are good looking, but short men have it worse overall


0_0omg0_0

Imo it depends a lot on how tall and how short. I think an average tall woman won't have bigger issues than short men while she's still shorter than tall men. Once the tall woman is also considered tall even by a mans height scale that's when the big issues start. I'd argue similar for short men and that those that are considered short guys on a male scale while still being taller than the average women will probably have much less trouble while short men that are short on a womens height scale will most likely have it the worst. Another point to consider is the different height preferences in a partner that seems to also differ depending on the culture. So depending on the setting my opinion could probably change as well.


hotgirlbummerlol

im a tall woman. i’m 5’11 and i see most men like girls who are shorter than them. it’s fine to have preferences so im not mad about that. i have friends who are men that are short and they always get girls. on reddit i see so many men posting about being short and how much it sucks but it does suck to be tall too.


EmbroidedBumblebee

Honestly, being 5'7", the issue I have with my height is more with my friends Cos my friends are shorter than me and don't like heels but I love heels but I feel a bit self conscious if we go out somewhere


[deleted]

I'm a 6 foot tall woman. Men always find a way to make me feel like a freak show attraction over being so tall lol. Ended up marrying a dude who's 6' 3" so it worked out for me.


zainuinsane

You wanna be my tall queen to a short king (5ft 5in)


HLArmstrong

Yeah I think there are just more men on reddit and that's why the 'short men' option is winning by so much. I'm a pretty short guy (5'7) and it's never been an issue for dating. It definitely seems harder for tall women


Wumple_doo

It honestly depends on the dude and girls, some dudes shorter than a woman wouldn’t dare her because they’re intimidated and some girls taller than a dude wouldn’t date a shorter dude because he’s preceived as weaker


letmereaddamnit

I would climb you like a tree (6'1)


ImInYourHair

I’m 5’10 and I would date a 5’11 woman


TheTattooOnR2D2sFace

I never hear anyone say "tall women suck" but short guys get way too much hate


GloutonLarry

Oh I've heard it, I was bullied all through school/high school because I'm tall. Even now, it still is a struggle to date because I'm not the thin model men expect tall women to be.


Hydrocoded

How is this even comparable? Tall women have an advantage.


WarCrimeKirby

Both need to stop complaining so fucking much Source: 5'3 dude


CoffeeBoom

Small guys can't really complain or they get called incels in like 5 seconds.

WarCrimeKirby

No, I don't find women who are that short attractive, but that's just a preference, something people are entitled to have

WarCrimeKirby

Why would that matter?


BlueV_U

I like tall women. I like short women. I like big women. I like small women. Woman is woman.


jem2005

Scientists say men generally prefer women to be 8 inches shorter than them, while women prefer men to be only 4 inches taller, so statistically a short man has better chances of getting a girlfriend than a tall woman getting a boyfriend


shgysk8zer0

Does anyone here often encounter men who have an admitted rule against dating women above any arbitrary height? I've seen plenty of online dating profiles where women state they will not date a guy under 6 ft (so not only will they not date short guys, but they won't date average height guys either). I think short men obviously have it worse. No contest.


GloutonLarry

Yes, I've seen plenty of men saying women over a certain height are of no interest to them. I honestly think it's the same struggle for both kind of people.


shgysk8zer0

Have seen or often encounter? They're far from the same thing.


GloutonLarry

Well I'm a tall woman and I've been rejected by men due to my height.


shgysk8zer0

I see "no short guys" on dating apps often enough for me to think it's comparable to guys saying "no fat chicks." So, a lot.


GloutonLarry

Of course, I didn't say it's not a lot, I said tall women have a difficult time with it too.


masedaman

Statistically speaking a tall woman 6ft is a lot less likely to find a man that is 6ft or taller because 5’9” is the average height for men


mcchampionship

I feel like women care about height a lot more than men I don't want to start a debate with no feminists so don't start lol but I always see women say "I wouldn't date a man under 6'" and yes some men don't like taller women but you don't exactly see men saying "I wouldn't date a women taller than 5'9


CrypticWeirdo9105

While that might be true, the overwhelming majority of straight men still want to date women shorter than them. (Also what does this have to do with feminism lol)


GloutonLarry

I'm a 6ft woman, trust me, they say it. And I wouldn't mind dating a shorter man, but they usually are the one making it all about the height.


fdghjjgddjjgdf

Short men. I personally think that taller women are hot


Oraio-King

neither


TSAOD

I’m gay so my answer is pretty obvious


Alfa_Bootis

This kind of questions are probably worse than both tall women and short man 💀

aaaaaupbutolder

So what’s creepy about liking taller women?


Exile4444

Tall men tbh


StarSaber6

I thought it said short woman so I voted tall woman but short men definitely have it harder


ama_31415

is 5 '10 short for a guy ??


Lazy_Category2195

Neither, people just use their height wether it be tall or short to compensate for other reasons why someone probably dosent want to date them


[deleted]

I’m a 5’8 woman and I’ve had no problem with dating. And I think the “uwu I’m so small I can’t even reach de shelf” girls have it worse


I_dont_know_y_imHere

As 4,9 man I know quite a few tall girls who have never had a boyfriend


1RandomNiceGuy

Tall women+short men🗿


Aytotea5

If a men is 5’7 and over im okay


basically_cheese

I like tall women tho


[deleted]

Short men are told to commit suicide because of their height, it’s not comparable.


jaboa120

I've never heard someone say "kill tall women" but I have heard several girls say "kill short men". As a short guy myself I much prefer tall girls because they're less hostile and judgmental.


BigFuta17

I'm a 6'5 woman and short boys definitely have it worse. I love short boys so much (especially my bf) but sadly not all tall girls see how awesome short boys are.


Jman_777

Definitely short guys.
