height

[dice]

whats so great about being tall? i am 6`3 and i have never seen how it gives me any advantage then an average size guy, yet its i see posts constantly on this board about height being an advantage of some sort.

well

Im 6'5'' almost 6'6'' and girls are always asking me how tall I am..its an easier opener for me to drop some C & F on their a$$ and eliminates me having to initiate convo sometimes. (Like oh my god, your so original...I have never been ask that in my life)

On the other hand I always stick out like a soar thumb in clubs and on dance floors. Which I am a little insecure about, but its getting easier all the time. I once hit my head on a dance floor light and that was F@cking embarrassing.

As far as helping with the ladies, I would say it helps.....but by no means does it seal the deal.

I'm a little over 6"5', and I don't know if my height ever helped me get a chick. The only place where it might help, is that some women have a "height requirement" before they'll even consider you. Shallow I know....but true. other than that, height doesn't mean shyt.

Now come on, you're just doing this to p1ss short people off now aren't you?

Just one last word.



DUCK!

I'm 6'2 (hopefully on the verge of 6'3) *crosses fingers....(hoping)*

like jpjrjr said, some girls have a height requirement, if you meet it, height isnt important. if you don't they generally dont go for you.

also, most girls like dressing up and wearing high heels, but not if it makes them taller then their guy. i've had several girls tell me that they were so happy that i was tall just cause they could wear their high heels that they normally couldnt wear cause their ex was short etc etc.

either way, dont think about it. it's only a handicap if you keep it on your mind.

As someone who is only 5'8, I can say that height DOES play a part in attracting women.

It's plain and simple..the MAJORITY of women out there prefer a guy who is tall (at least 5'10).

There's nothing you can do about it if you're short, and its definately not a big problem at all, unless you focus on how you're at such a disadvantage...then that will REALLY turn women off!

Sometimes my ex-gf, who was around 5'5, would mention height. I could tell that she prefers taller guys. But I never let it get to me...and guess what? The short guy (me) was the one who busted her cherry!

I do recommend, however, that short guys work out and try to build a solid physique. This will help women feel a similair kind of "security" with you that they do with a taller guy. Some good role models for this would be Sylvester Stallone and Jean Claude Van Damme.

Here's something you should do. Go find a model site. Check out the heights of the men.

Yeah

good and bad

I'm 6'4".
Tall guys HAVE to carry themselves right. When I was younger I never stood up straight. I was so used to looking down at people it affected my posture. I had the tall, lanky, doofus-y look down to a science.
Now I look o-u-t-w-a-r-d (why the censorship?) as opposed to looking down. I keep my shoulders back. I slow down my walk. I enjoy myself.

Sure being tall gets you attention, but it's up to you to make sure it's the right attention.

I think it basically just increases the number of women who will take an interest in you, that's it really. I'm 5'5 or so (and skinny as hell to boot) and I can't believe I get attention from girls who are taller, I always thought it was a problem for me, but it really isn't.

 

[mroriginal]

im 5'4 been told im very goodlooking and dont have any problems with getting hot taller girls.You just have to find other things about your self to make up for it like game or a goodlooking face but it pisses me off when some girls want tallness as a requirement cause it means i wont ever have a shot with them.But being short means you wont have every girl you want but if your either rich,goodlooking,or have great game you will get Hot tall p****y

I'm 6'3" and yes I think being over 6' is an advantage, albeit a slight one. I have been opened by women before with them mentioning my height. They'll say something like "wow you're so tall", then I'll follow up with "wow you're so short" or something like that.

One person I've known who had the most pull with women I've ever seen was only around 5'8". This dude literally had women follow him around.

The posture thing is big. I have issues with my posture and I have back problems so I have to force myself to walk with correct posture.

So Many Ways:

Can you ellaborate on the character of your short friend who had women following him around?

 

[frivolousz21]

you guys dont listen do you!

for the tall guys this doenst pertain to you.

but for the shorter guys...the hieght can mean nothing unless you make more than it is!!

height matters in athletics and thats about it.

ITS HIGHLY over-rated......

[PVSSY-EATER]

there was a saying that went like this,

"Being tall in basketball, means nothing...if you cant play basketball"

This is not about being tall, its about knowing what the hell you are doing...

women say I want a tall, dark, handsome man, because they dont know HOW it is that men make themselves attractive....women dont, haha, know what the hell a man is supposed to look like.......hahaah

 

[WORKEROUTER]

I'm not sure I know where you were going there p*ssy eater.

It's quite a fact that a good number of women like a tall man. It goes back to evolutionary instinct, particularly when you are in a society of people derived primarily from a Western background.

BUT it's not a biggie. There are many ways that one can be attractive.

 

[BigFoot]

I agree with you DIce. I'm over 6 ' too, but
I don't really notice much of an advantage.
Maybe it's something you don't notice because you can't contrast it with being "shorter".

 

[MrRogersRedux]

Height can be used as a good conversation-starter to break the ice.

Me, I'm 6"8, going on 6"9, and I'm still in a high school where the closest competitor is a good half-foot away.

A real attention-magnet, sometimes good, sometimes bad. Humor uually fills in for some good attention, though

 

[Page3lover2]

I think height is fairly important yes, it may help with confidence and usually women want a man who is taller than she is. Futher, it has been theorised that taller people tend to do better in business.
