Why so angry?

Everybody has an opinion, everybody has standards, and bloggers need to write articles that get clicks.

Clicks that you are unwittingly helping them get by posting stuff here.

One might see this as a way to write a blog post that might get some equal anger-driven clicks:

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Fat Chick

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Single Mom

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Girl With More Than $5K in Debt

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Girl With Visible Tattoos

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Girl With More Than 3 Previous Sexual Partners

10 Reason I Won't Date A Girl That Doesn't Love Jesus

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Muslim

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Dumb Chick

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Democrat

10 Reasons I Won't Date A Girl Receiving Government Assistance

If anybody has a blog, these articles, if well written, will generate tons of clicks and tons of ad revenue.

Better yet, make a 5 min video of each, articulating each point.

I want to know where she’s meeting all these insecure dudes. Montréal must be full of them. I’m only 5’10 and could give a **** about her height or mine. I think it’s funny she brings up the heels comment because most women don’t like guys that have s thing for girls in heels. They claim “oh you have a shoe fetish!”.

Don't let the fact escape you that that some of the points made in this list come from a woman who....

wait for it.....

...previously dated shorter guys.

Half of this list doesn't even pertain to a man's actual height, but to either his insecurities about it or to other underdeveloped aspects of himself that fail to offset some of the more psychological aspects of this list of 10 reasons.

The Napoleon complex, the jealousy, the confrontative nature, the forbidding of wearing heels. These are not physical faults, they are behavioral. They are very significant turn-offs. These things can ruin you even if you did have the height.

A few inches is simply not enough for a woman to think you cannot lift her, protect her or make her feel less feminine if you're well built/muscular, practice MMA or box and other such things, exude confidence, etc.

When you remove everything from this list that a man has the power to mold and change to his will, you are really only left with 2, maybe 3 things that he cannot change, but even those few remaining items are typically only an issue when it comes to more significant mismatches in height.

Being 5'7", 5'6"or 5'5" may be considered short for a guy, but these are pretty average heights for women. There will not be a significant enough mismatch there for the bending over for a kiss problem, or the visual mismatch so readily apparent to other people. And there are A LOT of women out there that are shorter than that, where those two particular issues wouldn't really be issues at all.

Yes, there are women out there who are 5'0" or 5'2" who refuse to date guys less than 6'0" tall, but there really aren't enough of those out there to stop a man from being successful. A lot of shorter guys are just so sensitive to the issue that they actually take immediate notice to such women. When you're looking for something, particularly if it is routed in a weakness of some sort, you're more often going to find it. It's going to seem more plentiful than it really is. It's no different than someone who quits smoking because he's tired of feeling ostracized by society. So he gives it up...and all of the sudden, it seems like everyone in the world smokes. Every movie has a scene with someone having a cigg. It's everywhere.

So unless you're 5'2"or 5'0" like that angry bagel shop guy that went viral recently, odds are that many of the issues surrounding a shorter stature can be surmounted. Realistically, it's never going to stop. You're always going to have moments when you're reminded of your shorter stature. You're always going to wish you were taller. But it's often surmountable to a degree that will allow a man to shrug off those occasional reminders when height is an issue, rather than dwell on them and scour the internet for articles that piss him off even more.

It's funny when you go on match and see a 5 0 woman and their preference is 6 1 and higher rofl and they're only an hb6 and you wonder why you are them on there 12 hours a day.

Women lie about height too a lot. I barely even crack 5 9 rounded off but that hb9 I went out with was more like 5 7 even though she was listed 5 9. I was taller than her .

Whatever.
Im 6 feet (live in NJ) and I'm taller than 80% of the men in this state
If height was so important, how come I don't have women throwing themselves at me?

Also.

If I had a dime for everytime i saw a guy under 5'10" with an attractive woman, I would be rich.

A confident physically fit attractive 5'6 guy should have no problems.

It's the guys 5'4" and under (regardless of how good looking they are) who are pretty much screwed.

Are you physically fit? Face? I dunno why. I've read guys who are 6 3 and make good money and good shape still complaining about lack of dates on old. I dunno what goes on. Maybe it's just timing and luck in your case you're not at the right location and right time. Just like the st. Louis blues bad luck for 51 years.

Im fit yes, full head of hair and decent face. I'm 42, but look 35. I give myself a 7.5

Yea, I dunno why. Then I see dirty, ugly, fat guys with HB7s and 8s and I wonder WTF am I doing wrong. If you look too young maybe women in their 40s want someone who looks more mature and that age? Look 35 try the early 30s range. I have the same problem with women in their 30s. I typically get better luck under 30. lately I've gotten replies from women older than me all of a sudden. before it was the 20s crowd.

Because height--unless in extremes--matters mostly on paper.

A short guy can't be himself without being called insecure or having a Napoleon complex.

I saw a woman blatantly disrespect a short guy and then said he was insecure about his height when he got angry about said disrespect.

If more men stood up to snobby women we wouldn't have as many women acting this way. I work with a guy in his late 50s, married and in great shape and when he was younger and single he said he'd walk out on dates even if the woman was really hot if she was disrespectful or an arse. He tells me don't put up with women like that when I told him about my last dating disaster. She was really hot though so I put up with it so if there was any chance I'd have of getting some. I guess I should take that advice next time.

The whole feminist movement has really empowered women to treat men like sh**.

I bet you spam approach women's inbox like there's no tomorrow.

If so, you need to calm down and not be desperately trying.

If ur intent is to wife up the 1st women who shows the slightest interest in you, they'll run for the hills.

It's like me, after fvcking 1 girl I just met and then she thinks she "owns" me, wants exclusivity, etc. It creeps me out each time.

You mean like keep sending them messages if they don't reply if it's marked "read?"

Height is kind of like money. Not having it may not be a deal breaker but having it definitely doesn't hurt. I'm 6'3" and was recently told by a smoking hot legitimately 6' blonde that I was too short for her as she only dates 6'5" and up. I hope she realizes thats less than 1% of the population before turns into a spinster.

She needs you to be taller than the 5” stripper heels she never wears but claims to own.

You guys do realise that most women are around 5'4" to 5'6" right?

There's quite a few around 5'2"...

I'm basing this from my time working in Europe and travelling there over the years.

So if u r a 5'7" or even a 5'8" guy, it's not a problem.

You guys inferiority complex kills off the attraction before it can even start.

 

[Robert28]

I’ve had more women reject me because I didn’t have any tattoos than I have because I’m only 5’10.

 

[Alvafe]

btw you guys did read the whole thing? she says the short guy can't lift her and she is over 6´(you and your imperial system no one else use) what I see is that huge woman who is over weight, end the name big bertha yell on your head.

woman like this you laught it off, andget with her friend in front of her

Large-statured women are perceived as less feminine and submissive, like short-statured men are perceived as less dominant. A woman over 5'10 (my height) is a physical turn-off for me. It just is. All else being equal, I will go for the smaller girl, much like a woman will go for the taller guy.

So despite the fact that most of her beef with "short" guys is them projecting their insecurities about their height (short man obstacles don't arise unless below the medium height range 5'9 - 5'11), she is also in part projecting some resentment at her lack of feminine appeal by towering over 80%+ of the eligible male dating pool. Giant women have it rough in the dating market too. I wouldn't get too butthurt about this article.

Yep, I live in North Jersey with a lot of Italian, Irish and Latino genetic representation, which probably makes the average height around here a bit shorter than in regions with a more Anglo/Nordic gene pool

I very frequently see short men with really hot girls -- however, almost without exception, these men are jacked. It would seem in the physical dominance realm, the lack of height can be compensated with heavy musculature.
