I’m kinda tall for a woman, and swear to God the only women I’ve ever felt attracted to at all were taller than me. With guys I don’t really care, around my height is good, have dated guys shorter than me, but guys my height do outweigh me and are much stronger than I am. I consider myself very heterosexual but do sometimes wonder if it is as simple as liking “bigger/stronger than me” and don’t live in a world with a lot of women taller than me? Probably just straight, not hung up and generally only respond at all to men, all women can see when another woman is attractive but I really don’t know.
You don’t have to put a label on yourself. Like what you like. Everything is a spectrum, anyway. It is totally fair to enjoy looking at a woman in a way that feels a little more than heterosexual, and it doesn’t have to mean you have to label those feelings as neither romantic or sexual attraction. I am just saying this to advocate for loving yourself the way you are, I’m not sure if you need to hear it specifically :D
Yeah I’m not worried about it, more just find it interesting.
Saying 6’4" is equal to 2m is… generous.
I’m dumb.
Only 7 cm off!
I’m from America. How many bananas is that?
A large banana the size of a small banana. Or roughly 1/27th of an eagle.
Freedom or bald?
Freedom, the kind that specifically cries like a red tailed hawk and not at all like an eagle.
Deep pull
After hearing an eagle in real life I get it.
I think I’d be a bit pissed if I was an eagle. “What the fuck, you’ve dubbed over all of my lines in post-production? My voice not cool enough for you?”
How many refrigerators is that?
Aww, that takes me back to how my wife and I were when we were long distance over a decade ago (and also international). And while she is tall for Japan, she is noooot tall. Actually we’re about the same heights as the comic, too. Cute.
My not-yet-wife and I are in that situation rn. I’m on the taller side for a German and she’s average Asian height, so our size difference is bigger than in the comic. ><
Or just don’t reach for the neck when you’re that much shorter.
I don’t think you understand. The height difference is desirable.
Source: I’m 5’11" and want someone to make me feel small.
I never understood this about women. I’m 5’11, and I’ve had women say I’m too short for them. Meanwhile they’re 5’3, and I’m like “Well your height doesn’t matter to me either way.”
Dated a woman 4’7, dated another woman 6’8. Can’t ever remember a time where someones size mattered for any reason. But most women seemingly don’t want to date guys under 6’4.
Imagine if guys did that. Just saying to a woman “Sorry, I only date DD cups.” He’d get slapped!
I sometimes wonder if it’s nature trying to breed us to average height. Like, I’m tall, my ex was around my height and our kids (girls) are around our height, only one taller than me though.
My mom was kinda short and my dad very tall, so their kids were tall but none of us as tall as my dad.
So, like, if you are already medium to tallish, no need to find a tall partner, but if you are short and want medium to tallish kids, you will need a tall partner to do that. And if you are quite tall, maybe you don’t want your kids to be even taller, right? At some point that can be problematic. So then you are attracted to shorter partners.
Have you ever seen the reaction when someone says they don’t date short chicks?
They Do Not like it one bit.
That’s because they are the prize. /s
You exist for their needs. This is why they have “standards” that fill multiple pages, but you are misogynist if you have even one standard they don’t meet.
They certainly think they’re a prize.
Online dating websites are full of people with half assed profiles who think drinking wine is a hobby, but want a six foot tall underwear model for a partner.
I think at least part of it is wanting a partner that makes them feel safe and secure, and perceiving height as an indicator of such. Tbh, however, if I liked you and you had an 8" difference on me then I’d probably be really happy (that’d put you at 6’7" tho).
That said, if they care about your height enough that they don’t want to date you, then I’d tell you the same thing I’d tell a girl who’s being shamed for not having DD cups: they’re hardcore objectifying you and you shouldn’t waste your time on them; you deserve better.
The usual phrase is that somebody “dodged a bullet,” which makes short guys like Neo in The Matrix as far as bullet-dodging goes.
As a gay dude it makes a little difference. It can dictate whether or not I can pick up the other dude and plop him on my D while standing or if I need to break out the extra big paws and diapers during a session.
What a beautiful and eloquent comment.
You can call them pigs for it, but I wouldn’t advise slapping them.
Just saying to a woman “Sorry, I only date DD cups.”
It’s not “about women”. Fisical attraction is a thing and it can be as legitimate as one wish to give it space in their life.
If you draw some kind of line at women with DD cups, good for you.
Of course you can derive all kind of judgements from that but it’s not inherently “unethical”.
it’s not about you, it’s about their offspring
they are already one step ahead of you
…yeah, I’m not having kids.
Yeah my partner and I have a bigger height difference than this and we never have any issues with hugging. Kissing can be a stretch though.
badum tsss
What’s the deal with heights?
It’s just a feature I think a of of people find attractive, big or small. For most people I think it’s not necessarily a deal breaker but a small +/- towards attraction. I can’t tell you exactly why I like certain features like the nape of the neck, just that I do. I’m not going to dismiss someone as a partner for it either but it’s a small +/-. Height is just the mainstream version of that cause a bunch of people relate. Some people like to be made to feel big or small by their partner, height differences can do that.
There will always be the shallow people who dismiss someone entirely based on something like that though, probably best to avoid those people.
You know what they say about big spines ;)
Leave the house, what the fuck.
