When she was a young (and skinny) model, Kate Moss looked taller than she is, due to her thinness and the proportions of her limbs and body (a small head and thin, longish neck also really helps pull off the illusion of greater height). But when she was next to the models of average height for models or the tall ones, you would be surprised by the real height difference. Meanwhile, actress Claire Danes is taller than many actresses, but her proportions are not good for modeling. She has wide shoulders that slope downwards, a flat chest but a long lean waist, with a low butt and wide hips, and shortish looking legs that appear too heavy for her upper body (the thighs especially). She's very pear shaped, and it's not easy to dress that kind of shape - and with a long waist.
This is very true. Especially when the height difference is like 2'', proportions will matter more. But ultimately at the end of the day, taller person is still taller and more popular unless proportions difference is significant.
Only 40% of men in history reproduce. The other 60% are either too short, died from disease or war or just simply not chosen by females for X reason. The whole idea that everyone finds a mate is NOT true you need to fight for women.

I'm 170 cm (5'7") and my husband is just 3 cm taller than me (he's 5'8"). When I wear heels I'm much taller. In fact all I have to do is wear a shoe with a slight bit of heel to look taller. Does it matter to me? Considering we've been together for 21 years... not in the slightest. Yet when we were dating, it took my husband months to convince himself that I was interested in him (I had to take matters into my own hands!). That, he later told me, was down to the fact he was convinced I would be into a much taller guy than him. Thankfully we cleared that misunderstanding up!

yup, i’m 5’7 and have had two girlfriends my height or an inch taller and hooked up with plenty girls the same height or taller that didn’t mind the height. it’s always the 5’1 and below girls i’ve noticed that are more picky about height
@@jasoncortez1238 maybe there are reasons for this, humans need healthy strong offspring of somewhat normal stature, shorter women should go for taller men, and more average or taller women shouldn't as much on average, we do not need midgets or overgrown people with back pain, the seals tells us that versatile men of average height range are best. 6'3 guys are not super soliders, and a guy who is 5'4 is not as efficient as he could be either.
Last week I learned that a 6ft6 intern we have, somebody with a literal gigantism diagnosis and increasing back problems, was dating a 5ft girl. Not only that, he says all the girls that ask him out out of the blue tend to be as short😂
Yeah I think most people don't know how much an inch is bc the majority of couples I see have a 2 to 5 inch height difference. My sister's husband is 5'10 and she's 5'5, my gf is 5'4 and I'm 5'7, my friend is like 5'9 and his gf is 6'0, the one of the biggest height gaps from people ik is like my dad and he's 6'0 and my mom is like 5'5

@@Eu125bonilla who cares what you look like when you’re with someone you care about. It does matter how tall your kid is though because the reality is tall men are treated better.
I remember seeing a study on how height matters in the workplace and how CEOs are often above average height. Our preference to choose taller people is probably a primal thing built into us which we can and often do override these days.
The CEO heights used in the stat papers are self-reported. You can find below 6ft males in leadership positions all the time, even in the States, which seems to fixate on height more than other places. Anecdotally, the wealthiest CEO I personally know is 5'7".
A woman prefers 8 inches of difference yet the average height discrepancy between males and females is 5 inches. Also regardless of how short a woman is, the majority of them prefer a man over 5'10
that's the point tho. women are functionally hypergamous and they don't want average. most women want the top 5-10% of dudes. there's a reason why a lot of them share the same groups of men and are "okay" with being a cheated on because there aren't enough tall & attractive men to go around.
And a man prefers a woman 3 inches shorter, what’s your point? Everyone wants the best they can get. Luckily we’re all able to form attachments to people even if they’re not perfect
I'm a 6' tall woman who likes shorter men, not exclusively, but it's kind of interesting cause it's different from me. There is this theory that when a woman is really tall, what you described will switch, because she doesn't wanna have to press out huge babies. I don't know about that.
In my experience tall women usually either don't care or like shorter men, but shorter women always seem to fangirl all over tall guys. As a tall guy (6'4) I personally don't care, but I'd say that too much of a height difference is just damn inconvenient
I think it’s just Bcz u see more shorter men and in terms of dating that’s what ur gonna get as an option mostly. So psychologically u like them more. But tastes can definitely have outliers so it’s most likely just preference
@fertblu5514 Bro people, women especially, like to hack down anyone who they think they can. Its usually when theyre insecure or miserable in their own lives. 5'8 was the height of the men who built the empire state building and fought on normandy beach. No women had a problem with their height then.
True attractiveness in a man comes down to multiple things: Natural looks (facial features); physique; grooming (shows that you make an effort); finding clothes that fit well and go well together and are clean and crease-free (again, it shows you make an effort); how you carry yourself, i.e., your posture and body language; intelligence; a great sense of humour; drive, as in being driven to achieve things, even if we're talking non-financial things e.g., learning a language, writing a book, learning an instrument - it basically shows you are not just going to chill out and slob around, and so it probably is to do with being a potentially good provider. Oh and a bonus point for being honest, good with vulnerable groups, and having strong ethical principles that you won't break for anyone.
I'm 5'7. The tallest guy i've dated was 6'3 and I hated craning my neck to kiss him and always having to look up at him with my neck in that awk position when we were next to each other. Now I've been with a 5'9 guy for over 5 years and I've never felt more comfortable. I really do like being with someone I can "see eye to eye" with.
@@egray139 well where im from ladies don't have it much good either .. 5'2 and below it gets tough.. it's cus they don't want their children to suffer.. You're 5'7 which translates to 6'2-6'3 male equivalent and since mother-> son + ur height genes stronger than his ur children will be of that height
I am 5'8 and live in an European country and feel sometimes sick to the stomach of being judged "not a real man", because essentially that's laughable. Made myself fit and even if coming from a relatively poor family, I'm way above average in financials, because of hard work and proper risk taking. I absolutely crushed it the last years in all disciplines a man can do, especially if (and one shoulnd't!) compare the outcomes of my desicions to my taller male friends (all of them are taller than me or way taller). Of course I know first hand how some other people treat short men. A 6'3 friend of me for example in the club: standing there, doing nothing. Women come to him like flies, every 10 or so minutes another (usually short ;-)) woman. Life on easy-mode. Does this breed hard, capable men? I say, certainly it doesn't. So this is an example of a man, who gets handed everything for free, while the struggle for the short man is real and I am instead of complaining, proud of it, because this is what real men do and this is why I am successful, while others are mediocre! You can tell me, how I'm "compansating", but I know the truth for myself: I'm doing the best I can for me and my family. I'm getting the results and as I don't get the free meals, I will take myself what is my right to have and I certainly won't care if you like it or not and how you "feel about judging me" of "what I should have or should do or not".
The best thing is not to think about it too much. Although some countries are obsessed by it, like South Korea. Parents will put their kids on growth hormone if they are projected to reach 5'7. Being below average is associated with impoverishment and is just not acceptable. Don't know the deal is in Europe, but I remember my time in Korea constantly being reminded of being short, while in America almost nobody mentioned it, as I'm only marginally below average.
As a 5'6 woman, I'd prefer a dude whose height was somewhere between 5'3 and 5'9. Could be 5'3, 5'7, 5'6, etc. I just wouldn't prefer a _CRAZY_ height difference. But honestly, I couldn't care less if he was kind to me.

Height is just a multiplier IMO. I’m 5’7 and been with many taller women than myself ranging from my height to 6’ tall. The thing is I have an above average face
@@my2l yup. Unless you’re 5’5 and don’t put effort in your appearance then your pool of options becomes really limited. I also keep my face really chiseled, I take care of my skin and everything in my control to look good everyday. I’m also 41 yet very marketable on dating apps

I was about to say that the average preference being 8 inches taller is crazy until I realized my bf is exactly 8in taller. Sorry guys, I'm part of the problem...
A men's face (from head to chin) is 8-9 inches tall. No need to measure. When an average women says they are looking for a guy a head taller, it means 6ft.
@CHAD-LITTLE Some men too. I'm a medium man (5'9"; 175cm), and I find much taller women attractive. I've never seen a woman whom I thought was "too tall" to be attractive. Tallest lady I've seen was this one at my gym who was maybe ~6'6", and she was hot as fire! 🔥 🥵
@@MichaelengeloMC he is just about 5ft 9 maybe a little less 🙂. And I wear boots with a heel often which make me appear as 5ft 8 rather than my true height of 5ft 6. I prefer when guys are closer to my height 😊
That explains it! I used to think this whole height difference thing was overrated because I've always felt attracted towards short guys. I'm a really short girl myself (4'11") and at some point I decided I would prefer someone below 5'6" which ofc, makes it very difficult to find anyone in my range since all the guys I know are much taller. I only know a couple of boys below 5'6" and I do find them attractive.
It’s insane how much people talk about women wanting tall men but not how men also prefer tall men. While not causation, height is correlated with income. Men give raises to other men who are tall
I would have thought tall men would see other tall men as competition and would prefer small men in their work company so they can try to dominate them? I don't know though.
What the hell , if I am an employer, why I would look if my employees are attractive , sexy , or tall ? The only case where being hot will help you in work is when the manager , employer, or CEO are attracted to you . Guys, are you serious, or is this sarcasm ? There is no way you think being hot will help you in your career, right ? The only case if you were charismatic and you tried to charm your way up to the top or to get out of serious situations . This is very advantageous for hot people , and no one will deny that . BUT to think about this shit to this extent guy you need help FR , if you were short, ugly imp , you will get a jop and live but without the littil bit of advantage of the hot people , you will live normally, you might be single , which is bad BUT it has NOTHING to do with your jop or career .
This is true I often also see friend groups of tall men who look down on shorter men. Men are not innocent either and men need to understand that you can’t just blame women
I think the correlation might actually have more to do with IQ than tall people being promoted for being tall. There is a correlation between height and IQ. The IQ is probably the major factor.
Im 175lbs (79kg) and training box i think i can defend myself from anyone. Thats the only thing that matters to me related to height, if you learn how, you can defend yourself and your family if some stupid bully giant wants to overstep.
This video makes no sense, because the guy is just attractive no matter how tall he is. 5'11 and 6'3 are both completely fine heights imo (I'm actually 5'10, but would prefer 5'11 man over visibly taller one). You forgot to mention if a guy's attractive height does not matter that much...

I’m 6’8” but cannot say that on the internet because people either think I’m lying or are extremely jealous and hateful. Can confirm that height is not the sole determinant of sexual attractiveness. I was surprised that the shorter women preferred shorter men because in my experience it seems to be the opposite
many factors are involved. A certain type of face fits better to a certain height and build but the whole of appearance and proportions are the most important.
Face or height for women is the equivalent of face or body for men. I saw a study that men prefer good bodies over pretty faces, generally. Surprising to me because I love a pretty face and can be forgiving of a less than perfect body.
Even as a 5’7 woman I once met a man who was 205cm idk what that is in ft😂 and he was low key creeping me out when we stood next to eachother. He was the sweetest man but.. it was a mental block for me😅
My guy is only a few inches taller than me but he is skinny and has arched cheekbones. It's better to me too be with a shorter guy who's skinny than a muscular one who is taller.
In my experience the shorter the women the taller she wants her men to be. Just what I observed. Exceptions on the „extrem“ ends of the hight bell curve.
Stg I’ve noticed this too! I’m 5’7 (so on the slightly taller side for a woman) and a guys height just doesn’t really matter that much to me. I mean I’d like him to be my height at least but the last guy I dated was 5’8 . I’m much more attracted to face, body shape/muscle tone and charisma . But my short af friends all want a tall guy over 6’ . I wonder if there really is a deep genetic component to it. Like I already have the “tall genes” so I don’t have to search for a tall man to mate w. But if you have majority “short genes” you’re more likely to seek out a taller mate in order to produce taller/stronger offspring 🤷🏻♀️
That's fair. I never got the fascination of a "taller man" specifically, but rather I always preferred romantically in men at least 3 inches taller or shorter than me. Something about eye to eye feels like a friend zone. I wonder if that's socially or genetically ingrained somehow.
@@gj9157I see you under every comment of someone saying woman can prefer shorter guys or guys that are just a little taller, not believing is true. But just because women on dating apps might be weird about it, doesn’t mean everyone is. For example, I don’t want a guy that’s too much taller than me (I’m 5’1) because my neck hurts so fucking much from looking up all the time and it also makes me weirdly feel like an ant.
You're Asian, any white boy will do just fine. This is why you feel like you can sacrifice on height, especially when your race's genetics lack this aspect. It is absolutely dreadful the genocide by love that women are committing in the Western world. Natural selection on steroids even, at least in the wild it is more fair.
@@Alteronx5'10 is very average in America, the white average male is 5'10 the rest are 5'9 while globally it's 5'8, also in Europe it's 6ft so that means that 5:10 is considered short because it's nothing obviously while 6:2 is tall
Recent data, and several different Studies have shown that 5'8 is pretty much the cut-off point. Less than 10% percent of women surveyed were willing to date a man shorter than that.
I am a short person 5'1, and I have never been fascinated by very tall men 5'6-5'7 is fine for me, they still look taller than me but nothing exaggerated, however short guys want tall girls and Very tall guys tend to look for me more and they always mention that they like our height difference
Thats hilarious because every girl I know 5.7 or above says that their height puts men -specifically smaller men off. That is simply incorrect saying small men want taller girls.

Reality:height multiplies your attractiveness. Too tall > too small. İ didn't make these rules and I'm tall myself. GL my short Kings, you deserve love and respect equally
It comes down to protection and safety for the woman - it’s primal. Shorter women feel more vulnerable in society so they choose a much taller partner to compensate for that.. Taller men are more of a deterrent to other men, and longer limbs mean you can carry more muscle. Whereas taller women are less vulnerable in society therefore they are more willing to compromise. A 5ft woman in society is vulnerable to literally EVERYONE.. short men, average women, average men, tall women and tall men (the only exception being other short women). Whereas a tall woman, let’s say 5’10, isn’t going to feel nearly as vulnerable. She’s much bigger than the short women, she’s bigger than the short men, she’s bigger than average women, she’s roughly the same height as average men (in the west obviously) and she’s the same sort of height as other tall women.. so she’s only really vulnerable to tall men. So statistically speaking, she’s much less likely to need a man to protect her. The psychology behind it all is really interesting.
That’s complete BS. It’s about feeling smaller than it is about protection. This is not the Stone Age, protection means nothing. Women like tall skinny even tho it has no protection. It’s just about smaller vertically, a tall girl feels tall so they have height as a bigger priority and want someone at least taller than them. Short women or average height women want someone that’s tall and like the height difference and have a better chance at achieving that
@ Just because you’re not ready to hear it, doesn’t mean it’s not true 😂 Sure, and wanting to feel smaller as a woman is directly linked to wanting to be protected. Once again you’re projecting your own ignorance - protection means nothing to you.. you don’t speak on behalf of all women 🤡. Most women would prefer a guy that’s tall and skinny over someone short and skinny, that’s obvious. No in my experience taller girls are less concerned about height than shorter girls.
@@crazycatpetera1404 interesting, and according to you, what % does physical attractiveness have in the equation ? (If we see things from a girl perspective)

You cannot be attractive with standards so relatively low compared to other women. It's a HUGE indicator of your attractiveness as a wmn when you ask for things below average or at average
Am 5’9 next to my friend who is 5’4 it feels pretty close. His eyes is the same level as my neck. My other friend who is 5’1 is like below my shoulders when i stood next to her. Even if i compared myself to 5’11 or 6’3 it’s not too insane. I prefer someone the same height or even shorter. The lowest i can go is 4’11 guys. I don’t really like super tall guys. Maybe like above 6 foot. It’s too tall and out of proportion. You look good when your outfit matches and so does your height. Too tall you will have skinny legs. I like guys who have so much lower body build. Its usually the ones below 5’8. They have better calves too. Be okay with your height!!!
I’m 6’2 and my preference for a woman’s height is usually around 5’3-5’6. I don’t really want my girl as tall as me. I’ve dated women as short as 4’10 and as tall as 6’0.
I'm just about touching 6'4" and I dated tons of women that were 5'2" - 5'6", while less than a dozen were ever taller than 5'8". All the shorter women said they loved tall guys, even though they were quite short.
I’m 5’8” and most of the men I’ve dated have been that height or shorter (my husband is 5’2”). At the end of the day a good face and body is still a good face and body. Tall men are often tall and thin which isn’t my taste.
Depends, if you're ugly as a mofo and 6'1 then another shortcoming is so great that ofcourse you will not be popular with women, but still there will be alot more women into that person, than the guy if he was 5'7 instead. Taller guys 5'10 - 6'4ish will be alot better off in options than those exact same guys if the height bracket was something like 5'4 - 5'8

It’s never short guys that say this. And I mean actually short. Not “woe is me, I’m one inch shorter than the average height of my country” short. There’s shorter and then there’s SHORT.

Its arguably the most important trait for men. Its literally an amplifier if you are tall and the opposite if you are short. Most women would pick a tall skinny fat guy over a short lean/fit guy. There is no short man that wouldnt look better if he was taller.
Well "short" and "tall" are very relative terms. It depends upon where you are. Think of Southeast Asian countries VS East Asian, VS Northern Europe lile thr Netherlands

@37471 No, your name was 37471 on my screen. I just "averaged" your mom and dad's heights, subtracting 8 from your dad and adding 8 to your mom (giggity). It turns out you are bang on in the middle at 5'11. I don't know how this actually works, I've heard the mom's height is more relevant, but there are trends that buck this. When I see "short mom/tall dad" pairings, it seems that they usually tend toward the middle. For reference, my mom is 4'11, while my dad is 6'0. I came out at 5'10 (it was a hard birth). Only 1 inch shorter than you, despite a much smaller mom. It's possible my mom's height may have been slightly stunted, but her sisters are barely taller. I'm guessing it's just within nature to default toward the middle/average. Height is good, so maybe there's a trend to pull toward the taller dad, but only to an extent. Average is average for a reason. It's good to be average, or only slightly above it. Has it ever occurred to you that, maybe, your dad's height is actually a disadvantage at such an extreme, and nature has just done what it does and produced a more viable offspring? Excess height leads to issues (unfortunately). Humans aren't really meant to be that big (at least not yet? Possible also we may shrink). In my opinion, the best height to be, mostly athletically speaking, is 5'8 - 6'1. While you may feel out of place among your dad's side of the family, complaining about being 5'11 is essentially complaining about getting a perfect draw. Like, even getting an able body is amazing. It's about health and ability at the end of the day.

When she was a young (and skinny) model, Kate Moss looked taller than she is, due to her thinness and the proportions of her limbs and body (a small head and thin, longish neck also really helps pull off the illusion of greater height). But when she was next to the models of average height for models or the tall ones, you would be surprised by the real height difference.
Meanwhile, actress Claire Danes is taller than many actresses, but her proportions are not good for modeling. She has wide shoulders that slope downwards, a flat chest but a long lean waist, with a low butt and wide hips, and shortish looking legs that appear too heavy for her upper body (the thighs especially). She's very pear shaped, and it's not easy to dress that kind of shape - and with a long waist.
This is very true. Especially when the height difference is like 2'', proportions will matter more. But ultimately at the end of the day, taller person is still taller and more popular unless proportions difference is significant.
Fact
How short tho and what is good proportions anyways. I'm about 5ft6 7 and seem proportionate snd compact lol but women will still go for a taller guy.
8 inches taller than them is fucking insane

that's the point tho. women are functionally hypergamous and they don't want average. most women want the top 5-10% of dudes. there's a reason why a lot of them share the same groups of men and are "okay" with being a cheated on because there aren't enough tall & attractive men to go around.

I'm a 6' tall woman who likes shorter men, not exclusively, but it's kind of interesting cause it's different from me. There is this theory that when a woman is really tall, what you described will switch, because she doesn't wanna have to press out huge babies. I don't know about that.
In my experience tall women usually either don't care or like shorter men, but shorter women always seem to fangirl all over tall guys. As a tall guy (6'4) I personally don't care, but I'd say that too much of a height difference is just damn inconvenient
How much shorter do you prefer your men ?

True attractiveness in a man comes down to multiple things:
Natural looks (facial features); physique; grooming (shows that you make an effort); finding clothes that fit well and go well together and are clean and crease-free (again, it shows you make an effort); how you carry yourself, i.e., your posture and body language; intelligence; a great sense of humour; drive, as in being driven to achieve things, even if we're talking non-financial things e.g., learning a language, writing a book, learning an instrument - it basically shows you are not just going to chill out and slob around, and so it probably is to do with being a potentially good provider. Oh and a bonus point for being honest, good with vulnerable groups, and having strong ethical principles that you won't break for anyone.

I am 5'8 and live in an European country and feel sometimes sick to the stomach of being judged "not a real man", because essentially that's laughable.
Made myself fit and even if coming from a relatively poor family, I'm way above average in financials, because of hard work and proper risk taking. I absolutely crushed it the last years in all disciplines a man can do, especially if (and one shoulnd't!) compare the outcomes of my desicions to my taller male friends (all of them are taller than me or way taller).
Of course I know first hand how some other people treat short men. A 6'3 friend of me for example in the club: standing there, doing nothing. Women come to him like flies, every 10 or so minutes another (usually short ;-)) woman. Life on easy-mode. Does this breed hard, capable men? I say, certainly it doesn't. So this is an example of a man, who gets handed everything for free, while the struggle for the short man is real and I am instead of complaining, proud of it, because this is what real men do and this is why I am successful, while others are mediocre!
You can tell me, how I'm "compansating", but I know the truth for myself: I'm doing the best I can for me and my family. I'm getting the results and as I don't get the free meals, I will take myself what is my right to have and I certainly won't care if you like it or not and how you "feel about judging me" of "what I should have or should do or not".
Do you do nofap? I can blow tall dudes out of the water on nofap. Makes you more alive and potent, changes who you are almost entirely.
The best thing is not to think about it too much. Although some countries are obsessed by it, like South Korea. Parents will put their kids on growth hormone if they are projected to reach 5'7. Being below average is associated with impoverishment and is just not acceptable. Don't know the deal is in Europe, but I remember my time in Korea constantly being reminded of being short, while in America almost nobody mentioned it, as I'm only marginally below average.
As a 5'6 woman, I'd prefer a dude whose height was somewhere between 5'3 and 5'9. Could be 5'3, 5'7, 5'6, etc. I just wouldn't prefer a _CRAZY_ height difference. But honestly, I couldn't care less if he was kind to me.

"Men give raises to other men who are tall" because "men prefer tall men"

@@hayabusa1329 that hatred towards your height stems from something tho ?
As a tall man 6'2, l can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to have people towering over me, I'd feel continually threatened.
Reality:height multiplies your attractiveness. Too tall > too small.
İ didn't make these rules and I'm tall myself. GL my short Kings, you deserve love and respect equally
It comes down to protection and safety for the woman - it’s primal. Shorter women feel more vulnerable in society so they choose a much taller partner to compensate for that.. Taller men are more of a deterrent to other men, and longer limbs mean you can carry more muscle. Whereas taller women are less vulnerable in society therefore they are more willing to compromise. A 5ft woman in society is vulnerable to literally EVERYONE.. short men, average women, average men, tall women and tall men (the only exception being other short women). Whereas a tall woman, let’s say 5’10, isn’t going to feel nearly as vulnerable. She’s much bigger than the short women, she’s bigger than the short men, she’s bigger than average women, she’s roughly the same height as average men (in the west obviously) and she’s the same sort of height as other tall women.. so she’s only really vulnerable to tall men. So statistically speaking, she’s much less likely to need a man to protect her. The psychology behind it all is really interesting.
That’s complete BS. It’s about feeling smaller than it is about protection. This is not the Stone Age, protection means nothing. Women like tall skinny even tho it has no protection. It’s just about smaller vertically, a tall girl feels tall so they have height as a bigger priority and want someone at least taller than them. Short women or average height women want someone that’s tall and like the height difference and have a better chance at achieving that
@ Just because you’re not ready to hear it, doesn’t mean it’s not true 😂 Sure, and wanting to feel smaller as a woman is directly linked to wanting to be protected. Once again you’re projecting your own ignorance - protection means nothing to you.. you don’t speak on behalf of all women 🤡. Most women would prefer a guy that’s tall and skinny over someone short and skinny, that’s obvious. No in my experience taller girls are less concerned about height than shorter girls.
@@crazycatpetera1404 interesting, and according to you, what % does physical attractiveness have in the equation ?
(If we see things from a girl perspective)
@@Razmus7176 I guess it depends what you mean specifically by ‘physical attractiveness’ do you mean just mean facial aesthetics or their overall attractiveness?
That's not true. The devils is in the detail. An AVERAGE woman would prefer an 8 inch taller man. Many tall women are less obsessed with having a much taller man, while many smaller woman might think 8 inch are not enough.
I'm like a bit over 5,6 and I'm a girl 16 years old and I really don't understand why everyone wants tall guys. I rarely get crushes but the guys I've always liked where close to my height or maybe a little shorter.
that is true. there was a super short girl at my school who called a guy over a foot taller than her "too short"
Not true. Many short women around 5’ are the ones who criticize short men the most, claiming to date only 6’ and above.
girl said that only reason she with me is because of my height and not my personality.. guys have it rough :/
@@crazy-iq-genius3840 that is wild. I presume she is an ex now.
you're just spewing anecdotal BS that you see on social media. as a man who is 5'8 you are just wrong. ive had no issues with short women especially
@@Dinofx_jr personal experience.
@@crazy-iq-genius3840 I see so many girls clearly doing that. It frustrates me as an average height guy cuz I think the taller guys are boring, but I think more low of her for doing that.
As a 5'5 woman, I literally just want someone above 5'5 but no taller than 6 feet. So basically 5'6 to 6, that's my range
You cannot be attractive with standards so relatively low compared to other women. It's a HUGE indicator of your attractiveness as a wmn when you ask for things below average or at average
This is reasonable and realistic. Others could learn from your perspective.
Not asking for a 7 foot billionaire isnt "low stanards"

@@fgcpeak9591 I’m an attractive 5’6 woman who gets honked at at least once on my runs and I prefer 5’4 - 5’10 lol.
I've never seen a short woman saying they prefer short guy, they say they would, but never said prefer 😂
I never knew height was such a big deal until social media.
Am 5’9 next to my friend who is 5’4 it feels pretty close. His eyes is the same level as my neck. My other friend who is 5’1 is like below my shoulders when i stood next to her. Even if i compared myself to 5’11 or 6’3 it’s not too insane. I prefer someone the same height or even shorter. The lowest i can go is 4’11 guys. I don’t really like super tall guys. Maybe like above 6 foot. It’s too tall and out of proportion. You look good when your outfit matches and so does your height. Too tall you will have skinny legs. I like guys who have so much lower body build. Its usually the ones below 5’8. They have better calves too. Be okay with your height!!!
Your friend is not 5'1 if she's below your shoulders because thats only 8 inches
@@hayabusa1329 She looks 5'1 but she's prob on the shorter spectrum. I think certain outfits can make people look slimmer. Thus, look taller.
Literally no, most short women prefer a tall asf guy so they children become tall/avergare, and its subconscious, 6 foot to 6'5 is the sweet spot
But a tall man should not prefer short women. Because his sons can get shorter than him

@@ShubmanGill-r5knobody asked
I'm just about touching 6'4" and I dated tons of women that were 5'2" - 5'6", while less than a dozen were ever taller than 5'8". All the shorter women said they loved tall guys, even though they were quite short.
If the guy on the right is 5'11" then the guy on the left is 6'5" not 6'3"
I’m 5’8” and most of the men I’ve dated have been that height or shorter (my husband is 5’2”). At the end of the day a good face and body is still a good face and body. Tall men are often tall and thin which isn’t my taste.

Not all tall men are thin that sounds prejudice. You can be a short guy and be thin too it depends on your body type.
can you also at least in animations include metric ?
Height is much less important then people think.
Depends, if you're ugly as a mofo and 6'1 then another shortcoming is so great that ofcourse you will not be popular with women, but still there will be alot more women into that person, than the guy if he was 5'7 instead. Taller guys 5'10 - 6'4ish will be alot better off in options than those exact same guys if the height bracket was something like 5'4 - 5'8
@fabianpestarino3941 True, if you are attractive you are attractive. Unless you are extremely short or extremely tall it won't matter that much for the average women. (In Europe)
@@debsijb5710 That is true. An attractive guy that is 5'9 will get more girls than a tall guy with less attractive face that is 6'3. However someone who is both is even better off.
Yeah for example
Cillian Murphy is 5'7
Leo Messi is 5'6
It’s never short guys that say this. And I mean actually short. Not “woe is me, I’m one inch shorter than the average height of my country” short. There’s shorter and then there’s SHORT. As in your height becomes your entire being and everyone you meet feels obligated to note just how short you are.
It appears in general women prefer facial features, perceived age, and body physique more than height.
I would like to see a study of height vs these other characteristics.
Assortative preferences, not associated preferences.

I’m 5’5 and prefer guys who are about 5’8 or 5’9 but I’m not super picky on height and have dated much taller and even shorter though I wouldn’t date shorter than 5’5
So 5'5 is the shortest you'd go?
I’ve learned that it’s tough to dance/hold/be close to a girl who’s a lot shorter than me. My ex was 1 foot shorter than me and I always had to bend down so far that my knees would sometimes hurt.

Even with that height I'm in the 25% for men my age 😭

What people prefer is not what they necessarily settle with.
I have a question , is 5 feet 7 male considered to be tall or average or short ? I am confused though 😂😂
Got it. In simple terms I'm doomed 😊
Its arguably the most important trait for men. Its literally an amplifier if you are tall and the opposite if you are short. Most women would pick a tall skinny fat guy over a short lean/fit guy. There is no short man that wouldnt look better if he was taller.
Well "short" and "tall" are very relative terms. It depends upon where you are. Think of Southeast Asian countries VS East Asian, VS Northern Europe lile thr Netherlands

This study dont apply to tall women. Im 5.11 and was always going for shorter guys. Ended up with husband 6.7 but it was just an accident I didnt persue him, he persued me at the beggining because he felt more comfortabe not having to bend so much :D
EDIT: To all the doubts in the comments.
Im from Poland. Its not uncommon to see such heights. Im not even the tallest from my girl friends. Have 2 friends 6f (girls) and there is 7f guy at my work.
Average for a guy I think is 5.11 but the reange is wide here.
Very small and very tall is not uncommon. We love all
6'7 is extremely rare. Doubt he's actually 6'7..
Lmao you’re the functional equivalent of a short man and deep down you knew it so you settled on short guys growing up and STILL got a tall guy. Smh the height pill is BEYOND brutal. Got with a 6 foot 7 dude on “accident” gfo I bet you showed him bedroom acrobatics those manlet’s NEVER got
@374716 feet?
@37471 5'11
@37471 No, your name was 37471 on my screen. I just "averaged" your mom and dad's heights, subtracting 8 from your dad and adding 8 to your mom (giggity). It turns out you are bang on in the middle at 5'11. I don't know how this actually works, I've heard the mom's height is more relevant, but there are trends that buck this. When I see "short mom/tall dad" pairings, it seems that they usually tend toward the middle. For reference, my mom is 4'11, while my dad is 6'0. I came out at 5'10 (it was a hard birth). Only 1 inch shorter than you, despite a much smaller mom. It's possible my mom's height may have been slightly stunted, but her sisters are barely taller. I'm guessing it's just within nature to default toward the middle/average. Height is good, so maybe there's a trend to pull toward the taller dad, but only to an extent. Average is average for a reason. It's good to be average, or only slightly above it. Has it ever occurred to you that, maybe, your dad's height is actually a disadvantage at such an extreme, and nature has just done what it does and produced a more viable offspring? Excess height leads to issues (unfortunately). Humans aren't really meant to be that big (at least not yet? Possible also we may shrink). In my opinion, the best height to be, mostly athletically speaking, is 5'8 - 6'1. While you may feel out of place among your dad's side of the family, complaining about being 5'11 is essentially complaining about getting a perfect draw. Like, even getting an able body is amazing. It's about health and ability at the end of the day.

remember this doesnt account for face, 6’2 will always be better than 5’10 if attractiveness is equal, however 5’10 + 7/10 face >= 6’2 5/10 face
