I like tall men. Some men don't like me because I'm not skinny. Some guys do like me because of my generous figure. Preferences are personal, so you really can't change what people like and don't like.
HOWEVER... most women realize that when they find a good man, he will not possess every trait that she wants. It comes down to what a woman will sacrifice and the other qualities that a man possesses. If I meet a guy who is your height (aka my height) I may be able to overlook his height if he has a killer smile and an awesome personality.
Sorry that was very rambling... I guess the point is, don't let it get to you. The right person won't care.
I hear you, but, one thing, I cant change my height, but you can change your weight!

Re: why do women put an emphasis on height
I am 5'9 and my last significant other was 5'7 Yes there are taller women that date shorter men. But I feel it is a security issue. As women we like to feel secure and protected. I just feel a man taller then a woman helps to create that secure feeling. Keep looking, the right one is out there.

Why is you supposed Moral ppl can sit around passing judgement on other ppls choices I always thought live and let live was the way to go but hey maybe when you grow up you will see that it is wrong to dis others for there personal choices that YOU may not agree until then enjoy the limited lives you will so obviously lead

Re: why do women put an emphasis on height
Tact is quite a useful feather in the cap, knowing when to retract a statement and apologise is also a sign of humility... Tact will keep you out of trouble, humility will dig you out of it.
Both are a turn ON, to either sex... having neither will not be usefull in the quest for a relationship.
example : "especially when your 5.6"
*NOTE* I am what's known as a forum whore, im a veteran in the art of counter flame and rational argument.

Re: why do women put an emphasis on height
Thanks to everyone who stood up for me! Wow!! But it's ok, what he thinks of me doesn't matter.
See, my point is, yes, I could be anorexic and lose a bunch of weight and be "skinny." But I wouldn't be happy. There are people in this world who love me as I am, so I am patiently waiting because the right man won't care if I am a size 10 or a size 20. He will love me for my essence, not its container. The same thing applies to your height.
It's funny how the phrase "generous figure" turned into "overweight." For the record, you don't know how big or small I am. You assumed that "generous" meant fat. I was giving an honest answer, and well, you made an ass of yourself.
Good job!
P.S. If you didn't read the awesome post by Loz, read it. Absorb it. Use it.
