    Im tall =0 shes short. I like shorter girls. Last Saturday I was next to a woman and all I could think in my head was "shes beast". Lol, she was like 6'6" and I had the same feeling you would if your next to a normal sized horse, then you go next to one of those large Germain horses!

      what's a height problem?
      I know English is not your first language, so I was just wondering what you meant...like, girls are short? cant reach things? or..?

    I am between 5' 8" and 5' 9" which (by the way) makes me as tall if not taller than a lot of current movie heartthrobs.  (I found out I am at least as tall as Spider-man while working in the movie SEABISQUIT.)
    Anyway, your statement is not valid.  Some women may think they prefer a lot of things but LOVE is blind.  I have had my share of women MY height and taller! 
    Hey!  I make it clear we're the same height in the backseat of my car and next to each other in her bed.  Additionally, what "GIRLS" think they like and what a mature female likes are two different things.  Women think they like the bad boys too when they are only young girls.  Then they hook up with them, get abused by them and get dumped by them and all of a sudden their preferences grow and mature.

    Don't let anything stop you short of hearing she doesn't LOVE you!

    I've always been a fan of the more average height man myself..,my heaartthrob was always Richard Dreffus (back in his curly hair days}. No offense to the tall men big_smile but really tall guys were always to "Ken Doll"for me

    Im 5'9" and my husband is 6'5" 370lbs. However, I dated guys that were 5'9"+ and I have talked to guys that were a bit shorter than me. It really only matters what that person has to offer (personality, etc). Love has almost nothing to do with outside appearance. A guy can be the size of my husband and an idiot, broke, and bad at everything (although my husband it not!lol!). Its whats on the inside that really counts. If you don't believe me, ask someone you know who has been divorced a time or two...

        yes it will! Maybe you are taller than say three to four in?? is it appropriate to ask from where are you and your race just so I know your probable height?

    this thread was revived? sounds like they were having a good time.

    I'm 5'8", so I generally like the guy to be as tall or taller.

      you are tall Ms Rebekkah, I am only 5 flat, can you give me some,

        lol I like being tall, but when I was younger.. kids used to tease me!

        my husband was the same height, exactly. I have dated very tall men and some shorter men.. but generally I feel most comfortable with someone at least my height.

          Not a fair question for me since I'm like 5 foot tall. Everyone is taller than me. : )

          yes that is understandable for woman, for men to be taller

          Still you are cool Ms Rebekkah because you are taller than most women. You can kick higher LOL

    I spent 4 years with someone half a foot shorter than I am.  My partner now is probably only 1 or 2 inches taller than I.  I guess I'm one of the rare breed of woman that doesn't discriminate based on height. wink

    Taller men make a woman feel feminine.
