LoveMovies: I prefer men who are taller, but if the guy was really special, I'm might consider someone who is a little shorter than me. Not looking for one of the seven dwarfs though.

No, i like my man to be taller, but on a personal note there are many nice shorter guys, but for me he has to be at least 3 inches taller. Think its all down to personal preference

Well, I have answered this question before and yes I would. I dated a man 5'4" and I am 5'8" without heels; so when I had heels on, you can well guess where his head came too when we were slow dancing. Very embarrassing to say the least.blushing

Ocee35: Women don't like short men.

Some women say they do, but it's just a lie

navygirl1: Yeah, but those guys do love it none the less.


I sometimes wonder if short guys feel like they are talling by standing next to a tall women. Kind of like the short guys with the big trucks. grin

You are lucky that you are petite. You have more of a selection.

LoveMovies: I wouldn't think of you as "shallow" just because you are not attracted to overweight women. It isn't nice to call them fat though.


Thats honest!!!
I was on here answering a 'what girl i prefer' question....
Gave my answer and very shortly 2 girls were slamming me for a while, quite tough!!!

Im tall, girls prefer tall. Small makes them insecure, ESPECIALLY if they are tall themselves....

Lil fellas with stunning girls in my experience have always had either lots of money, or gift of the gab!

What are you trying to say? Are you trying to say that I should accept shorter men because I haven't been married so far? Perhaps, but then the men should start accepting chubbier women. I don't feel that I'm like day old bread that must be sold quickly. I am happy with my lot in life even without a man. I just don't feel the need to be a couple. Like I said, if I met the right guy I might want to.

You are lucky. I wonder why so many petit women would like to be taller. I say put on your dancing shoes and enjoy it. At least you are not towering over the guy.

LoveMovies: Perhaps you are more open minded than most. I still don't have a problem with people who have certain preference. I think they need to go with their heart.


Fair enough, but our mind creates the groundrules it allows the heart to be open to.

To a certain point. We are genetically programmed to seek out healthy partners for pro-creation. Studies have shown that beautiful people are more symmetrical and have healthier bodies. Men tend to go for women with small waists and women tend to look for men who are strong and muscular. I'm not sure if that changes when you are out of the child bearing age or not. So, in a way, our mind has been programmed over thousands of years. I'm not saying it is fair, but I try to understand the dynamics. I feel you are one of the rare guys. If you check out most threads, the men don't seem to like chubby women, and women don't like wimpy guys. Some of it may do to the media as well.

Yor final part I will agree with you, however we are quite capable to not allow ourselves to be sadly marginalized with what society tells us we must do and what is acceptable.

Sadness permiates if that is a rare perspective.

If we do not do so, then what possible positives would being with a person of that narrow minded, selfish, mundane thought process bring to me/you in a positve, growing, giving, caring loving relationship, and failure has begun before the
opening salvo.

Is that why ultimately relationships crash and burn on a continual basis??

And these are the choices "we" want??


Cheers
