and have to admit, I do still chase taller guys, prefer over 6" or close to that, but depending on build, and the overall appeal, I have quite often hooked up with shorter guys (and very happy I did, they were amazing), but here's the catch, not stocky, because that's not what I'm attracted to, so if shorter and lean and tight, yeah it wouldn't put me off in the least. So answering the question for me personally, everyone's different obviously, I find it's not just the height but the overall, if you're attracted, you're not going to give a toss about the height. But I do have a failing for tall, strong guys, I do like to look up at a guy and have him put his arms around me and pull me up, preferably with his hands on my ass at the time lol

I'm all of 5.4" and everyone is really tall as far as I'm concerned. I do have hang ups about my height and 5 inch heels helps me feel better. I'm lucky that some sexy tall people don't mind me being a short arse ;) and still play with me. If you are shorter than me (yes it might be possible lol) then I'm sorry I wont be interested. I don't mind looking up to a lover or being the same height, I don't ever want to be taller than a playmate or lover. So for me, its a yes, its a deal breaker :(Mary xx

I'm rarely physically attracted to someone under 6ft. Regularly I'll get messages like "But you have to give me a chance, because..." Or "you're too picky". I don't, and I'm not. I'm here to find lovers I'm both mentally and physically attracted to, not my soul mate, and I don't see the need to have to change my personal preferences because someone else thinks I'm not giving shorter guys a chance. Would you change yours?

We all have our preferences. Many of these can often be.... bypassed.... if you know how attraction works.Your friend needs to change his mindset to increase his self worth, to a level above his height. I have a height range which I "prefer".... about 5'4" to about 6foot.... but I have known women from 6'5' of long, lithe arms and legs....down to just 5 foot... and she was one of the most amazing women I've ever had the privilege of knowing. YES the rules are diffusely applied to men.But not everyone plays by the rules.

I think that we are all pre programmed to look for a partner who look healthy, attractive and strong, I think that height fall into this as well ..... to give our gametes the best potential to succeed in life ..... interestingly, we are attracted to these attributes (looks) when we are not going to 'breed ' children with them ? ..... would it be fair to say ..... ' that most women would not choose a male partner shorter than them'? ..... would you accept a female partner shorter than you (female) ? .... I have not seen much evidence that men discriminate against women who are much taller than them .... ? as this happens all the time with 125mm shoes ??? ..... so to extrapolate this ... if your partner wore 150mm stillettos ( I always find this a great look with an Armani suit) to be 6' ... that would be ok ??? ... same height as you when he sits? ..... So, I guess my chances of getting a date with a goalie from the West Coast Fever .. is diminishing at this point .... lol ..... as for my vertically challenged friends ..... suggestions ? ps I have always considered myself short at 5'9" .... and have sons at 190cm & 185cm ....

Quoting 'tulips4u'When we're horizontal Everyone's the same height 😊 That would my third most common come-back. *Rolleyes* No, we're not the same height. That would only be true if the guy is as slim as I am, which is not what I'm looking for. I like to feel physically overwhelmed (not overpowered), and that means for me that beside the guy being taller, I need him to be a fair bit broader/wider too. So his circumference and therefore horizontal height would be larger than mine.

I am petite 5 ft 4 inches. pocket rocket. what I lack in size i make up in personality. Well that is what my momma said. Wrt men, whell I prefer them my height and above. if they dont mind me wearing heels. I ahve been with men of that height and it did not bother me at all as long as they are strong built (love strong shoulders and arms), sexy, funny, kind and very smart. The latter will melt me like choc in a hot pan... yum. A bonus if they cna lift me around and take charge... at times... when i let them. Lol The same criteria applies to the men I connect with, of varying heights, ages and race.

unfortunately, but it doesn't mean there isn't someone for him out there. But it will perhaps require more searching. He just needs to stay positive and not let it become a limiting belief. If he lives in Sydney, it might be of comfort to your friend that women are becoming far more superficial, so if he has a fast car, a house in a good part of the city and a high income, then many women are happy to trade off physical attributes for the gold lol

Her longer body as well s her longer arms and legs meant there was a degree of difference that actually made one position difficult....... and I guess that could also be said for larger/heavier/rounder than average people. However... my experiences are that those smaller women, and to me they pretty much are all smaller... have been very easily..... worked with, as you referred to.

...I'm over 6 foot tall. And given I have my own list of dealbreaker physical attributes for women, I would hate to be hypocritical... It is unfortunate for the shorter guys, and I do feel for you. But its the same as just not having a face you're attracted to. Or a cock that falls short of the target requirement (AMIRIGHT LADIES?!!?). You're never going to be everyones cup of tea. But remember everyone is attractive to someone else, somewhere, in some way. Just gotta find the ones that are attracted to you, for you. And that, is half the fun...

All seem to be getting taller as time marches on. When my kids were still at high school, I already noticed quite a few of the students (both male and female) growing to high proportions, and it seems that hasn't stopped. See plenty of the current generation students at various locations all getting within spitting distance of myself (@187 cm), and some even a bit more. Height has never been the deal breaker for me - former wife was only 148cm (4'10"), and current friend is only 156cm (5'1 1/2"). Mind you, finding someone equal or taller than myself usually has been somewhat in vain, too. It is the culmination of all of someone's qualities that should come into the equation. Tall

size doesnt matter. Ive dated guys my height (5 ft 3) and much taller (6ft 5). Its the overall experience. Im just as comfortable lounging on the sofa drinking wine and watching some crazy comedy show with a short guy or tall guy. In the bedroom, it doesnt matter. If I was "sizeist" I would have missed out on meeting some great guys. Is it mainly the women, as Ive never had a tall guy tell me Im too small to meet before?

I've spent a fair portion of my life coming to grips with this issue. There are a few different aspects to it, including ideals vs. reality, but physicality vs. personality is really the most relevant here. As far as physicality and personality go, there's a lot of interaction between the two. I've had people tell me, like Ulysses42, that they never saw me as being short. I've got a buddy who was the head bouncer for a club. For a short period, I entertained the idea of getting a job working for him. I asked him one day, though, if he thought I was too short for it. He told me, "The way you carry yourself - you could do it if you wanted to. I'd vouch for you." He explained that, at least for bouncing, your attitude is as a big a part of your physical presence as your size is. I think this is true for a lot of things in life. As many of the women here have said, though, personality doesn't necessarily make up for a lack of height. They're just not attracted to a shorter guy. Meander put it this way, "I like to feel physically overwhelmed..." I think a lot of women want this. Many want a man that will make them feel feminine and sexy and secure. And some just don't feel that way with a shorter or smaller guy. While I was delivered a hard reality check with that at one point in the past, I'm pragmatic about it now. It is what it is. If a woman says she only goes for tall guys, fine. I'm not going to message her. Same as if she said she doesn't like facial hair or men over 30. And by the same token these days, I won't typically message a woman that's more than a couple inches taller than me. I want my partner to feel feminine around me. I want her to feel sexy around me. I don't want to have to convince her of that. Chemistry like that should be easy - not forced or persuaded. For some women it's a dealbreaker. For others, it's not. What matters is that I want to be with a woman who wants to be with me. If a woman doesn't want me because I'm not tall enough, that's fine. I'm confident I can find someone that will want to be with me for who I am.

I am who I am and judging from the females I attract its not a issue. I dont care if she is taller or shorter ' if the chemistry's good who gives a fuck.. Im average height ' about 5 ' 9. I find the majority of females are under that anyway and I've never felt the need to ask what their preference is... that's weird and insecure

I'm not very tall for a man but most of my partners have been close to 6ft. And that's odd seeings as I prefer shorter women but you don't pick the ones you fall in love with. My partners don't wear heels as much because of our hight difference but that's about it. I've had some girls when I was younger say if you were taller I'd date you so I have noticed its a thing. Still getting a bit older it's less of an issue as people become less superficial. I still think most of attraction is in a good smile and good conversation the rest tends to fade into obscurity once you get them down pat.

I've had men turn me down because they were looking for petite and toned women, and I'm definitely neither. As you say, it is what it is and I'd only want someone who is as attracted to me as I am to them. Like you, I'm confident I can find someone like that.

I take no offence if a man isn't attracted to me because I am petite, Asian or smart geek. That is their preference and it should be respected just as my preference should be respected. We are what we are. I know I am a very attractive person physically and intellectually. I am also a very articulate, confident funny compassionate and good person. My rhp and real life friends will attest to that. I hope.. Or my bribe money has just gone to waste.

is a subject close to my heart right now, as I've recently started seeing someone who is 3cm shorter than me. He also has the body of a god and to be honest, both things would have warranted a "thanks, but no thanks" response from me if I'd just received a message from him but we actually met in real life at a meet and greet.... It's caused me to question a lot of my assumptions and ideas about what constitutes masculinity and femininity. The societal convention that women must always be smaller and take up less space than a man is just that. I pay very little heed in most of the rest of my life to what people say "should be" so why do I still persist with this notion that I must be with someone bigger than me? I'm not a small woman, I'm 177cm (5' 9 1/2") and amazonian in stature, plus I have a large arse and big tits.... I don't look small no matter who I'm standing next to and honestly, why the hell should I even be trying to? I don't know the answer for your friend Uly, all I know is that by throwing this particular "preference" out the window, I've accepted a wonderful person into my life and I'm glad.

BUT only because I am about 6foot or just below in heels and you won't ever catch this little lady out for dinner or on a date with a man, without heels. I've never felt comfortable with a man shorter than me ... And I am sure that you all may have wonderful personalities but so do tall men :-) I like heels and as I stand at 5"8... I need a man to be taller than me when I step up into my louboutins ...mmk?? Hehe I am sure most women will agree that we all like to feel smaller than the man we are with... It's always better to be the cozy little spoon ;-) - Posted from rhpmobile

Xeena, if your statistics are right then it actually sucks to be too tall. I'm 6'6" and I meet a lot of very attractive and nice ladies... but when we get out on the dance floor, well let's just say I get in trouble too often for looking at my feet... but I was only trying to make eye contact :p If say 4% of women rise above the 180cm mark (I'm 198cm), then add to that reasonable intelligence, a sporty and healthy life style, and able to dance... ok... hmmm. I see shorter people in and out of relationships, well because I'm guessing more is around. I meet a potential about once every six months... and I'm certainly not sitting at home :p For all you shorter guys, it's not all its cracked up to be... just try taking a London tube in peak hour for an example :p

Hasn't been a concern for me being a 160cm short-arse. Although Ive just realised, that means the guy in the OP is actually shorter than me. I do wonder how I'd feel if I was a tall woman.

Do you not have physical preferences yourself at all and would you have sex with anyone (you get on with), no matter how they look? I do have physical preferences yes. In an ideal world I'd be sleeping with a bevy of women who look like a cross between Eva Mendez and a young Tyra Banks, but does that mean I'd limit myself to such people? No it doesn't. I guess I just don't place as high a stock on physical attributes as some. I enjoy sex with people of all shapes, sizes, colours and creeds. I won't sleep with just anyone, but I try not to let something as frivilous as someones height be a dealbreaker. I'm not judging those who do, as I said, each to their own. To me sex is fun, not some rare state of being where all the planets align for one second and two souls travel the cosmos together in eternal ecstasy (though it is nice when that happens)..

For those who may be familiar with the smaller commuter type aircraft, they are also a pain to travel in as they are regularly only about 5'6" high max, if you're lucky. Tall

OP really you think women are shallow if they like talker men? I am nearly 6ft and believe me I would much prefer my partners to be at least as tall as I am, however my husband of 16yrs was 5ft 8. I'm not shallow but I know what I don't want anymore and if that makes me shallow because I don't want to tower over my partner than so be it. Oh and I love my high heels as well, most shorter guys have told me they feel intimidated so don't put it all on the women, guys have hang ups too! - Posted from rhpmobile

I grew up with a mother that reinforced personality was the most important thing and it was better to be a decent human being than to be pretty/ handsome. I know, being a mother myself, that we do say these things to try and help our children feel good about themselves. As I grew older I realised there was wisdom in her saying "beauty is as beauty does". I was going to say height is not a deal breaker however I then questioned whether I would date someone of short stature, so I will say a couple of inches shorter than me is not a deal breaker. It is as Tylannister says, what's important is being with someone who wants to be with me. I hope your friend finds a woman who appreciates him Uly. Freya, welcome back.

Height... despite being spot on 6' I have never looked down on a woman... I always look up to a lady until she proves me wrong. I have had wonderful relationships with women taller than me ... and tower over me in their Louboutins ... I still love a lady in heels be they 6' 8" or 4' 8"!

Hmmm...maybe not totally a deal breaker but height for me is a consideration. I'm reasonably tall and far from petite, and standing chatting to a guy who is my height or shorter and slighter than me just makes me feel enormous. My height and solid is slightly less of a concern. My husband is quite tall and I just love being wrapped up in his embrace. But I do believe, like someone else mentioned, that everybody is attractive to somebody...so OP I'm sure your mate will find someone. - Posted from rhpmobile

My ex hub was a few inches taller than me and i never wore high heels as HE didnt like it. Now i wear heels a lot. If i am seeing/ dating/hooking up/ just coffee-ing a shorter man i wear heels. i feel sexy in them. I dont care how tall the guy is... i have dated a guy 6'5" tall who was dead boring and a guy who was 5'5" and was an amazing lover .... height is not an issue. it is the size of their personality that matters and how they measure up in the manner department. Just my view

just looking at some of the responses.... Women have a preference.... Men don't give a fuck Lol 😝 The ole primal need to protect the species strikes again..... Shorter men are typically less likely to fight off a dinosaur in times of the zombie apocalypse...they need a good dose of crack or something to make em 7' tall and bulletproof... Whereas typically taller men are seen as the saviours....the healthy choice for the continuation of species... Like or not....agree with it or not....it's just the way it is.... - Posted from rhpmobile

According to some research quoted in the Daily Mail 17/2/2013..men prefer women who are just 3 inches shorter,whereas women prefer men who are 8 inches taller..Dr.Viren Swami a social psychologist was quoted as saying....There are two main theories..the biological theory is that taller men may have higher status or reproductive success..the second is a social theory..it reflects a cultural idea where tall men are viewed as being more masculine and tall women violate a cultural norm ....xxFreya

There is no evolutionary advantage to women being small and weak and needing protecting. In fact, women being unable to look after themselves (and consequently their children) would be a serious disadvantage to the survival of the species. Please note that I'm not suggesting that all small women need looking after, I'm saying that the theory that women are attracted to taller men because those men can protect them is questionable.

If girls 5.0 to 5.6 also want guys that are 6 ft where does that leave us guys that are 5.6 or 5.7. I can lift a girl from her ass or otherwise... just because I am 5.7 it doesn't mean I am weaker than a 6 ft tall guy??? What about personality, class, sexual ability, surly hight alone can't be the deciding factor... How boring..come on girls don't limit your choices...but remember it's always your right to chose... Just a thought. Richard.. - Posted from rhpmobile

OP It's all in ones attitude on how you deal with the fact that you are short, tall, fat, skiny, ugly or whatever it is that makes you "imperfect" If you have no confidence, then of course its going to be hard to attract someone of the opposite sex! Your mate has to focus on his positive credentials and forget the negative ones! Look at me for example!! I'm a short arse and no Oil painting myself! And although it can be hard meeting ppl on a Internet site, I have no problem meeting them out in person at a club etc.. Cause im a funny cunt and I have an awesome sense of humor!. Ive dated some amazing women who have fallen for me simply for that reason!. We all have something going for us! :) - Posted from rhpmobile

Released in Nature journal published 1 July 2015: "Directional dominance on stature and cognition in diverse human populations." Would seem that the taller a person is, the more likely they are to have greater genetic diversity. So that would fit very well with the biological theory why women would prefer taller men. They're after their evolutionary fitness.

Quoting Ulysses42 : "We talk of equality for sex and race and colour and are proactive/ affirmative action etc for those causes ..... and yet just a persons stature potentially excludes them in the loves stakes ??".... Ulysses that statement above just doesn't make sense,..... nor can it be applied to 'personal sexual preferences'! You are attempting to blur/superimpose utterly incongruous concepts here. That is: 1)"Proactivity/Affirmative Action", & 2) personal height preference criteria, which many individuals (consciously or subconsciously), apply when choosing Lovers. "Proactivity/Affirmative Action" (in the correct contexts),... relate to Social Justice & are called ETHICS, which are governed by professional and legal guidelines within a particular time and place". Personal preferences regarding height, which may influence an individual's choice of potential lovers, has no connection whatsoever to "Proactivity /Affirmative Action". UNLESS...these personal preferences are extrapolated & applied in such contexts as (for example): Employee selection; Client selection; Service-recipient criteria etc etc. This then falls squarely into the realms of DISCRIMINATION & PREJUDICE for which our (Western) Society has developed, & enshrined in law certain Ethical Standards that are supposed to eliminate Social & Moral Injustices. Simply put: 'Whether someone misses out on sex because of their height (or stature, appearance or personality etc), is nothing more than UNFAIR or BAD LUCK, but it can hardly be discussed in the context of "Affirmative action/proactivity"!! FCS, let's get some perspective here please!. - Posted from rhpmobile

Shortness doesn't bother me at all, but at a petite 5'4'' I'm shorter than most men so it's irrelevant. Shorter than me would be dependent on the individual personality, and it's not a huge deal.

One thing you don't have control over in life and like everything you need to work with what you are given. suppose very easy to say as I am 6'5. Does have its disadvantages.. easier to hit your head than shorter guys, but so so many advantages...... ;)

I actually don't really like tall men. My preference is somewhere between a little taller than my height (5'3") and about 5'10". I dated taller when I was young, but now I find that my FWBs are within that height range - and I like it that way.

Height doesn't bother me. I'm interested in people for the kinds of connections we may have, not whether I need to look up to him or not. But if I'm judging on a purely physical basis, I just have one comment - Peter Dinklage. 😍

Quoting 'BidommeGC' I actually don't really like tall men. My preference is somewhere between a little taller than my height (5'3") and about 5'10". I'm 5'3'' as well. It's not an automatic deal-breaker for me but really tall guys (say over 6 feet) make me feel tiny, which I don't particularly like.

I agree. Yes, over 6 foot is not a deal breaker but I don't like feeling so short next to them. I also like (mild) domination and it feels quite weird if the guy is so much bigger than me. Domination is purely psychological of course, and shorter guys are still very strong and masculine... But I like us to be on more of a physical level, otherwise it just feels silly. Yes, Peter Dinklage is very hot. I remember being very attracted to a very hot guy who was a little person ... But he also had a very hot regular sized wife.

I just had a nice meeting and chat with a really lovely guy from RHP - who was really tall.... And I'd just posted how I didn't like tall guys. Oops...
