Tall men and short women
How Taller Men View Short Women
Taller men may find short women cute and adorable, but perceptions vary widely. Some see short women as charming and endearing, while others may prefer taller partners. Personal preferences are influenced by individual experiences and cultural factors. Ultimately, attraction is subjective and differs from person to person.

I love shorter women. 5'2" area
How tall are you? Why do you like short women? What is it that attracts you?
My brother is 6’7 tall and I am 5’10 tall.
He has always dated medium to tall women. He told me he did not like short women.
However, I have known some guys who truly did not care at all about woman’s height. Some even preferred shorter.
Some guys told me they didn’t like tall women as they find them intimidating or whatever.

6'7 is very tall. That's like a giant to me 😂 I can see someone being that tall wanting someone a little taller than 5'4. Even at 5'10 (which is tall for a woman too) I'm sure you are considered short to him.
I always wanted to be taller... like 5'8.

My brother is 6’7” and loves short petite women. Like 5’ nothing lol.I’m 5’9”. I feel like Lady Dimitrescu around you shorter women lol. 🥲
You and @borednbeautiful have tall brothers and are tall yourself!
Lmao @ Lady Dimitrescu. Yeah it's always weird being near tall women. I used to want to be taller. Still kind of do, but I know that's never going to happen.
Does your brother say why he likes short women? 5'0 is short even for me...I even look down at them lol.
I prefer them to be taller than me. It's a huge plus if they got muscles behind the height.

Lmao I knew it might be nasty i kind of regretted asking after I submitted. Lol so like what's your brothers name? I'm a short Puerto Rican with olive skin lmao

I'm currently 5'11" and I date women 5'5" down to 5'2" usually. The tallest I've ever been with was 5'9" and shortest 5'0".I think 5'3" is ideal for me but if someone is inherently an asshole, I don't care how tall they are.
For the record: I'm taller than everyone in my immediate family. My brother is 5'9" and he's okay with 6'0" ladies and shorter.
I said 6'0 or taller. 🙄 jkjk

I made the mistake of showing the cancer a pic of a body builder and asked if he liked that. He was like "hell yeah, bonus if she can throw me over her shoulder"
🤷♀️ I'm 5'4 and can barely push him 😂

I don't know what's the deal with big men like to get woman handled by big women. There seems to be a correlation behind that. Like I don't want to say I like or don't like to get beat up by a woman or so much as want to but the fantasy of it all is real.

I’m 6’4”. Shortest I’ve dated was 5’2” and tallest 5’11” (ish). I do love a tiny, petite woman. Don’t know why.
I never feel petite, even after losing weight. Although I do have to shop in the petite section sometimes and I look like I'm about to fall into the washing machine when getting the clothes from the bottom of the washer. Picture for reference if it post. 😂

Men love short women 🖕🏾
Why are you flicking me off?
Posted by xyzabc
I always figured it would be weird dating a tall man because I’m only 5’4”. But my ex was 6’4”. It took some getting used to at first, but then it felt a little weird dating men shorter. Idk….otherwise height really doesn’t matter to me. Years ago I did date a guy briefly who was 5’0”. It really just depends on their personality. If they have a good personality and is an overall nice person then I couldn’t give two shits how tall or short they are. I know you were asking for input from men 6ft and taller. Just figure I’d give mine anyway. lol
I can't date guys shorter than me. I feel like I'm smothering them.

Really? AT 5'5? How weird.
At 5'11'', I am far more confident than a handsome 6'4'' model male. There's no need to question me

Worst is when you're being taken advantage of at work for reaching stuf no one else can get without a ladder! 😭😭😭
As far as women go, she can't be under 5'2'' and over 130 pounds.

Guys over 6 feet tall... or for you Europeans 72 inches or higher. How do you view/look at short women say 5'5 (65') and under?Do you find short women cute? Scary? Like a child? Unattractive? Adorable?
I once had a boyfriend tell me I was so cute and little he just wanted to carry me around in his pocket. He was 6 ft. I'm 5'4.
The Virgo was 6'4 and said he preferred tall women. We all know he's a dick(for saying that to me) , but I get why he would like taller women.
What is your view?
Why is he a dick for telling you the truth? Would you have preferred him lie, play you & waste your time?

I'm not going to go into the 8+ years of history with this man. I probably worded that wrong but most people on here know about him so was referring to everyone just knowing what a dick he is in general.

Oh dear ... 🫣
I think I might be the tallest woman on dxp!
And anywhere outside Netherlands and Scandinavia and couple other European countries 😎😂
I'm 5'2" and from what I'm recalling it's always been taller dudes, 6'3"ish, that have been into me. Mr. Sag closer in height, and there have been maybe a couple other back in my twenties that were like 5'9"ish. I like to surprise Mr. Sag by being naked in a pair of heels, that's fun! 😉😁
Wait a minute. I just now noticing you said on your op guys over 6 feet tall. So what am I doing on this thread🤔

I have friends who are married. They are 6’7 and 5’2.
I have dated quite a few guys over 6’ between 6 & 6’3. I’m 5’4. They seem to like it, it’s some sort of protection thing. Or that’s what I always thought anyway. When I was younger pretty much between 5’10 and 6’3. In recent years there’s been a few ones close to my height for some unknown reason. I prefer the taller ones tbh.
When my 4' 9" gf is trying to pick a fight with me I just go down on my knees so I'm at her chest level and I say
-This is what you look like to me......so you see why I can't take you seriousely?
I'm 6' 1"
i’m exactly 6’0’ (1.83m) i don’t really mind how tall someone is but i think i would feel like an awkward giant around super short women like 4’11’ lol 😅 spouse is 6’1’ (1.85m)
he’s a male though
I love short petite women. I love bigger women too, just short and petite are my favorite. I like when they have a perfect chest and ass too. Like not flat, but also not overly large. Like the perfect size. I'm literally describing an Aries woman I know which I consider one of the most attractive women in existence. She has queen energy for sure.
I'll be honest though my real problem with short women, and I'll be honest, is small dog syndrome. If you don't know what that means it's when short people overcompensate for their size, and come off annoying and aggressive even though they actually can't do shit. It's much worse in men though. Which brings me to my second point. Me as a 6'2 male would be afraid of having a child with a woman under like 5'7. Any shorter I'd fear of having a boy with Napoleon syndrome. That might sound crazy, but it's true.

Lmao 🤣 I love it!
I love me a tall man. 😂 Makes me feel protected and also I like to wear taller heels (like 3.75"-4" usually) and still be noticeably shorter. Interested in hearing from the men on here their opinions..

Dang, my sister is 5'10! Y'all are so tall lol. I dunno what happened to my parents' parents because my maternal grandfather was 6', my mom was 5'9, my dad and sister are 5'10, my brother is 6', and all three of my uncles and two of my cousins are over 6'. My one other cousin is 5'7". I'm the shortest. :') I don't mind it though. Makes it easier for me to find taller men to make me feel protected hahaha

I have a little dog so definitely know about little dog syndrome lol
I have heard tall guys say that about being worried their kids will be short before if they have them with short women but genetics are funny ... you kind of never know. Not sure if you've seen the tik toks about the guy whose like 6'0 but his parents are little people. The majority of the men in my family are around 6'0... it's the women who come out shorter, although 2 of my sisters are taller than me. 🤷♀️

I'm 6'3 and have a preference for tall women. And if she's also thick, I'm finished.
this is surface lever stuff tho, if i have chemistry with a woman, height isnt super important

My lady is 176cm or like 5'8-5'9. I'm shorter. It's always the taller ones that like me. Different signs too, 2 Leo's a Libra and an Aries. It's like some kind of sexual thing cause it's like instant confidence on my part. The shorter ones are sketchy imo lol.
click to expand
I'm talking about lady as tall as 6 feet or above or maybe 5 foot 11. 5'8 or 5'9 is right around where I'm at in height. A woman that's taller than me is more likely to tell me to get the fuck out her face. 5 foot 8 or 9 is not considered tall in my world.

click to expandlol exactly. But the worst is they think you should also lift the heavy things. I used to have to carry the printer paper in from the warehouse because they acted like my extra 4 inches of height gave me more strength. You’re closer to the ground, you lift it😅

5'4 -5'7 = perfect height for women imo

Idk. I still find tall women fragile, I don't mind the height too much. I never imagined being submissive to them.

Yeah I kinda believe tall women are fragile. Their egos are more fragile. I believe they'll plot your death if you don't give them what they want. So um....me saying I want a tall woman let alone a tall muscular one might get me in trouble if I were to get one.
Yeah I saw this real cute Asian woman yesterday and my goodness she's a cutie a genuine angel sent from heaven. I don't know why it seem like I know her from somewhere and don't know her from Adam and Eve. She look like a famous model from an Asian Playboy cover book. Only problem with that is she's very short, I'm talking short like 4'9. While she's a cutie and have a nice petite body I can't see myself being with those types. I like tall strong women that can give me piggy back rides and can carry me 1 or 2 miles on her shoulder with me sitting on either side her shoulder and a short 4 foot 9 lady can't do that at least I don't think they can. Oh well I'm sure those short cute type women is somebody type on here.

I'm told I look taller than 5'4 too. I used to think I was 5'6 but I've been measured multiple times and it's always 5'4. People don't ever believe me when I tell them. I have short legs but a long torso which gives the illusion I'm taller I guess. But when I sit down my legs dangle like a little kid 😂
We like our men tall that's fasho
