yeah, i know shape,eyes,hair color,personality are the things we talk about but rarely see anything about the pros and cons of women's height. currently dating the first woman shorter than me and as far as height goes the main advantage is she makes me look better endowed. taller women always seemed to have 2 advantages in my eyes 1)when riding me their chests are mouth level and 2)when i was unsteady on my feet and i leaned on them it wasn't as obvious. now i realize this thread might seem extremely shallow but i'm curious if other guys have any thoughts on this subject.

I don't reallyl know why, but I seem to be attracted mainly to petite ladies. It's odd, there's no actual physical reason that I can put my fingure on, I think it's just that I find them cute. I'm a pretty large guy myself, and have a big feeling of being kind of a protector for them...
Which sounds pretty sexist and stupid, i know.
But, that's how I feel for some reason.

Never really thought much about height ... at least when it comes to being attractive or alluring. Probably for myself only, tend to like a woman either close to the guys height, or, somewhat shorter. Then, again, not sure that's even that important.

I am very tall and the only problem I find with short women is stand up sex is really hard on the knees to keep them bent that way...LMAO

For some reason;I have been; mostly interested;in taller women.
Women used to be more concious of their height;then now!My
wife is 5'8 1/2".She told me that when she was in school;not many;women were tall.She said that;she always;used to wish that she could have a few inchs;removed;between her knee&foot.
My oldest daughters;nickname;in High School;was Giraffe.She is at least;as tall as my wife.My youngest daughter is about 2/3";
shorter.They were both models tho.They are proportioned;to
their height!To me;it's the person;not their physical proportion!

Because we are talking about the height: I like taller women because I am tall, too. But some tall women are moving kinda spider-like; that is something that is not esthetic. So if the movement is a bit cat-like and self-conscious, everything is ok.
But, as Irish said, the person is the important part (although I always like looking, too).

don`t care if they are taller/shorter than me altho i dont
tend to go for guys taller than me
i had this talk to janes sister she is taller than average for a woman and has trouble dateing even tho she is a knock out
i think a lot of it has to do with ego and pride
in ther minds the tall one is the domanant partner in the
relationship and before all the guy have a go at me its maybe the reason i tend to not date guys taller than me so iam as bad :o

ps ladys would you date some one smaller than you?

I went out with a guy who was shorter than me. It was a disaster. NOT because of his height, but because he was SO self-conscious about it! All he talked about all night was his height, even after I told him that it was no big deal to me.

As far as physical attraction, I do find a man taller than me to be sexier - at first blush. But most of the guys I have been truly attracted to - I get to know them first, and then I start thinking they are attractive. So I think it really is the person inside.

People judge each other initially based on such superficial factors all the time. It's sad but true. How do you base opinions on the person inside when you just met the person...

AS IF I NEED TO ANSWER THE REASON I WAS WONDERING IS BECAUSE I HAD READ A POST ABOUT SOMEONE WHO MET A LADY HE WAS GOING TO TAKE TO A WEDDING AND THERE WAS SOME KIND OF THING ABOUT HER HEIGHT AND MEN IN GENERAL. IT MADE ME WONDER AS I NOTICE THAT IT SEEMS THE MAJORITY OF COUPLES THE MAN IS TALLER. PERSONALLY I SEE HEIGHT AS SOMEWHERE IN THE SAME CLASS AS HAIR COLOR. OBVIOUSLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS COMPATITABILITY. SPEAKING OF WHICH AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS A S/O WHO ACTS LIKE....WELL YOU'VE SEEN THE ABOVE.....OH WAIT AM I CYBER FIGHTING WITH MY LADY? :p

Since LoveDiva took my answer....(Damn) ... I'll just have to say:

Height schmight, when you come right down to it, is she fun to be with, both in and out of bed?

Well, part of the reason that in most couples the man is taller is just plain old sexual dimorphism- Men generally have larger bones, thicker skulls (how many ladies here didn't already know that ;)) , and when it comes down to brute strength can out-do women. We're just biologically conditioned that way... Out of pure preference, I prefer a guy who is close to my own height (give or take 3-4 inches) just simply because you don't have to stand on tippy-toe to kiss and, as was previously mentioned, sex standing up works better that way :D

I personally had always gone for taller men (since I am 5'10) until I met my s/o, who is about 2 inches shorter than I am. He is such a terrific person that, although I was originally concerned, in the end it just doesn't matter. He seems to love it. He says I look like a super-model. And like the previous posts say, we're the same height when we're lying down ...

I go for taller men...had a b/f a couple years back that was exactly the same height as me (5'5"), and it just seemed kind of strange, especially the one time we tried sex against the wall...

I kind of like that feeling of him being bigger than I am, with that whole protector thing...makes me feel more secure sometimes.

I'm fairly tall, close to 6'.... and I like men taller than me.... why? because I like to feel protected and safe. and because short guys make me look like an amazon

thank you bama. reading what you wrote made clear a large answer to what i was wondering. reminded me of telling a friend many (actually lived long enough to maybe even add an other many) years ago. i like woman who i can stroll central park at night with and not only not have to worry about protecting her but be able to know she has my back.

I am about 5'8" and anyone who's seen my pics will know that I'm not of the tall and skinny variety. I'm fairly well proportioned but thost proportions are not small!!!

For this reason, even though I am often attracted to men who are about my height and built quite small, I feel self conscious about my own size. I'd like to be petite and 'protectable' and I often struggle to feel feminine which means that I like a guy to be bigger than me either in height or build (but not necessarily both).

My ex was tall and built very stockily and the main advantage was that in photographs I looked smaller than I am!!!

I don't care about height. But I'm pretty tall - almost 5'9" - and I like my b/f's height of 6'2". First guy I've dated in a looong time who wasn't my height.

Hight should not be a issue, it is more inportint to find some one that you love, I would have hated to passed over my wife because she is not a tall supper model look alike, or too skinny, fat, red head, gray hair or what ever. ........................(there, now that the wife is not looking, I like a nice small spinner)oh....got to go, .....comming dear

Some tall women can be very sexy, some cant. Dont ask me why. I love to see tall sexy women that are my height (im 6'2") but either way doesnt matter to me. My girlfriend is shorter than me and we dont have any problems.

*sigh*
A large part of my social life, especially when I was at Domincan, (Cath. HS) was about my height.
My lack of height, really.
At 4'11", EVERYONE I have ever dated was taller/bigger than me.
By the way Bama, I LOVE Amazons...

yes, there are two things to be noticed.
When you love some one, height does not matter, i fell in love with a women who is shorter than me - married no problem.
but when you come to sex, height sometimes matter, but again it is the postion you adopt to kiss or make love, but some standing postions, with shorter women is difficult. - i do agree with experience.
