    Attraction wise, do women care as much if a guy is kinda short if he's still good looking? I know height is an issue with many women to some degree, so I'm curious.

    Like, if a guy is not REALLY short, just kinda short, lke 5' 8" or 5'9" or something, would it set a girl back much attraction wise if despite his height he had a really fit swimmers body or something and a good looking face in the 9-10 range?

    I prefer a guy to be taller than me, and I'm 5'10, so anything above that is ideal....

    Shorter guys are attractive, it just looks silly when I'm towering over them especially if I'm wearing heels.

    As with anything when it comes to attraction, I think it just really depends on the woman.

    You can't change how tall you are, so why stress?

    I'm barely five foot so 10 year olds are taller than me...

    Are you a midget, midgets can be pretty hot in a freaky baby kind of way...

    you could be 4'3" and get all the women you want, provided you have a lot of money.

    Well I'm 5'11.
    I knew a girl who was 6'1 , and wore massive heels ontop of that.She only went out with giants of like 6'8 or so.

    When she found out I'd done 20 years martial arts , for some daft reason she was over me like a rash( like I was now a "real man":rolleyes: ).
    I thought that was pretty pathetic.

    My view , if u are 5'8 and look good, no need to worry at all...!

    it seems like half the posts by you that I come across are boastful in some way.
    I wonder what that means.

    That's true.

    What's also true is that this thread belongs in another part of the forums. Women's issues- maybe?

    I'm 6'1" and like short women. although it's not any sort of requirement as if I am going to fall for someone I fall for who they are before I fall for what they are, it does weight where attention goes.

    no need to explain, I understood your post.
    maybe I'm confusing you with someone else.

    lol, anyone see that entourage episode where that model kept leaning over E when she talked to him, and called him a spinner lol. I was talking to a girl last night about height, she said she likes to come up to about the guy's shoulders.

    I can't date a guy shorter than 5'4". That's my limit with the shorter guys. I'm 5'8" and I love to wear high heels....but I tend to stick with flats if the guy is 5'4". It's like a primal reaction with me when I see a really tall guy. I can't help it..I'm actually able to feel feminine around a tall man.

    I don't put much stock into looks though. I'm just always curious about people. If I have a crush on someone - it's not because that person is attractive, it's because I find them fascinating.

    I'm barely 5', so everyone is taller than me. As it turns out, I married a tall man, 6'3". I don't mind men who are short at all. The only problem that I had with a couple really short men (like under 5'4") is that they had "short man syndrome".

    Primal is right, but for an entirely different reason than you might think :eek:

    Males secrete a high dose of pheromones from the armpit which acts as an aphrodisiac on women (and no I don't mean BO) so If a male is shorter than you, you don't pick up the scent quite as easily [​IMG]
