Short Men: Why Women Aren't Attracted Enough to Date Them

[SW15]

Wow someone could be in the category and still mog me by over half a foot.

I am much taller than you are and I'm considered less than ideal height. There are women who even discard for height reasons.

It's OVER for LessThanIdealHeightCels.

I am just 5’9 and I do ok. I dated a woman who was 6’2 earlier this year. I suppose I compensate a lot for my height by the mystery i create. I think a lot of women are interested in me because I leave them wondering what I am about and wanting to learn more. I hear things like “You don’t look like a cop, there is no way I would have guessed that. What else are you going to surprise me with?” or “I just never know what’s gonna come out of your mouth and i am always anxious to hear the next thing”. Can’t do anything about my height so i work around it.

I am 6ft 1sh and my ex was 5ft 11 and her ex was 6ft 6. He was so irrelevant that the only time I heard about him was when I randomly asked her about him lol.

Good thing I'm 6'2, driving a sporty Lexus helps.

It seems the new dream height went up to 6'5.

Reality tv tropes. Less than 5% of men are 6'2. Average height for men is 5'10. I'm at the average NFL height.

Tom Cruise, Kevin Hart, Bruno Mars, Zuckerberg, could all be considered to be north of 6 feet because of their fame and fortune. Bernard Arnault and Elon Musk are already north of 6 feet, fame and fortune just add value. Same with Myron Gaines, Kevin Samuels, AMS, etc.

Thoughts?

My thoughts:

I think there are almost no women who’ve ever said, “I want a short man”.

There are short men who have women, usually very short women.

It's not just short men.

I’m borderline manlet (5’10”) and this hasn’t stopped me from getting what I want.

6'2 with a Lexus AND having Game? Goddamn dawg you must be slaying them pvssies nights and days.

Women are easily led by nature and if another woman wants 6ft + then she wants 6ft + even if she previously wasn't that bothered about it before

Oddly enough, it's the same with beards. Not long ago they were seen as scruffy, now suddenly every women prefers a bearded man over clean shaven.

Also pro sports especially the nhl for example if you're not over 6 foot they add two to three inches to you. Thats why when you meet many pro sports players they're a lot smaller in person. Crosby, Martin St. Louis, Brad Marchand are all examples. Marchand is listed 5 foot 9 but is more like 5 foot 5 in person from people who've met him.

As one of my favorite writers wrote, “trying to keep up with the ever-changing desires of women, men become unhinged lunatics.” I agree with this. This emphasis on “what women want” is ridiculous!

The worm has already turned, that's 2016 vintage. My experience is the clean-cut, hard-jawed almost PMC look is on the rise. Certainly works for me even in this shytehole. Women want MEN, and masculinity and frankly it is sorely lacking in 20-40 crowd.

You're all looking for a magic solution or excuse to cover up your own lack of a particular skill or inability to focus on the long term goal !!!

As I've said countless times before the "System works" the Man is the only thing that might fail due to his inability to focus.

I don’t think men are looking for the magic solution or have the inability to focus. Men all know success requires time and effort and hard work.

The problem lies is when men get there, the hot 19 year old virgins aren’t waiting for them. The older divorced women in their mid to late 30s or older are waiting for them. And that’s no good.

This is where men are lost and lack ambition and motivation. The girl gave it up to the proverbial Chad at 16 and now he has to wait for several months when she is older and less attractive to get the same thing. On top of that she will likely want commitment with the option to get paid out if she wants of that commitment Not worth it.

Personally I think if women had to be virgins before marriage with no option to destroy the man in case of divorce, men would be a lot more motivated.

so the 0.1%ers then

If the look works in your AO it's not hard to achieve it. Frankly IMO more women go for the clean cut, in shape, low bf, looks like he'd try to tear your throat out if provoked look.

Lift heavy stuff, eat right and train in a combative sport or discipline - truly its all 99% of the guys here need as it covers physique and increases your confidence the two things most guys need.

You don't want to be the freak that only lifts. Has big arms and chest, but no cardio or leg muscles and looks like on roids. Goofy looking. I think NHL players have the best body build. Slim, but lean muscle. They have the hottest wives too.

I don't get what's up with taller people. I turn 40 next month and when I was in high school boys and girls both were not nearly as tall as today and we were not as fat as well. A lot of the guys under 6 foot in high school and were not considered outcast for height. We didn't have a lot of 6-4 guys and that.

Even just 20-25 years ago the boys in high school were not nearly as tall today. A lot of us under 6 foot. I'm barely 5-9 and a lot of the guys were similar size.

Girls also were not as tall as well like today.

I'm Asian, 5 feet 5, considered (very) short compared to the latest generation (genZ). That's why I'm forcing myself to eat healthy, hit the gym, learn some extra classes in the evening after work, just got a (modest) promotion, spending wisely, and having no debt - same thing one should do even being more than 6 feet high or even 10 feet high (if you're a mutant).

What explains why these current people under 30 are so much taller than my age bracket?

My roommate is 5"4 and just got his 50th notch and he's like a 5 out of 10 in the face. Not even that jacked. I will admit that its a way bigger struggle for him but he does get it. He also does have a pretty big D and knows how to use it so he has dig bick energy

A couple of generations of good food, healthcare, and a after lifestyle has caused many immigrant ethnicities to reach their genetic potentials which they hadn’t been able to previously.
