Can you be more specific? I think your preference for taller women might be due to your age and height.Quote:

I don't really know how to measure my height. Sorry. :undecided:
Can I ask you people how you measure your own height? Lol
Well it involves the sacrifice of a small animal, preferably a goat...Quote:

Woo for being way taller than Jdea.
Good times. :)
...oh wait, I'm a tall freak of nature.
Bad times. :)
Shorter than me but not ridiculously short that you feel uncomfortable looking down on them.
I'm guessing most men find women taller than them emasculating.
I'm 5'9" ish, but I'm nowhere near finished growing. Fun thing is I was about 5'4" in September. This year.
Seriously?? :o Wooooow!!Quote:

When I officially measure myself I'll post my height here, is that alright?
The trait of women preffering taller men is an evolutionary trait and can be expalined by natural selection. Our ancestors, women would have looked for bigger, taller men as this may have implied that they would recieve better protection (perhaps taller men are stronger) and would have been more able to survive and thus pass on her genes.
As far as men are concerned, there was a recent study done that said that men are attracted to fatter women (Tovee et al 2006). This may explain why men may be attracted to smaller women more then taller ones as it is more likely that smaller women will be fatter then taller ones. As mathematically it would take more for taller women to be fatter then smaller ones, I think. :? Confusing stuff huh???
But, speaking as a man, I sure its a pride thing to a degree. I mean you can't be in a relationship with a lady thats taller than you! (Tom Cruise did it along with alot of other weird things recently) I mean the man has to be the man in the relationship from his point of view. A taller girl is surely only a fetish thing for a guy.
Men are attracted to fat woman?
I'm 5'11''. But I don't feel like it at all because I was shorter for the majority of middle school and some of high school. Inside I'm still feel like the small, easy going Butters I used to be. Sometimes I'll look at people who are 5'9'' and they will seem taller than me.
I think I have some deep seeded mental disorder.
I know what you mean actually, I was officially classed as Avarage height in my class when were doing measurements in class. Me and my friend Chris were exactly the same height.Quote:

Damn straight. Women with meat tend to have better curves anyway. Plus, there's something very un-sexy about ribs.Quote:

Oh! Now I know what he means, yeah, I don't like the skinny-as-hell ones, lol. Size -6,000,000Quote:

heh, my growth spurt started around age 13, where I grew like 3 inches in 6 months. :holycrap:
It's hardly only a 'fetish thing.'Quote:

Taller or Shorter?
[quote=Mes Tarrant;635590]LOL!! My son also prefers slightly "thick" girls over "stick" girls. :DQuote:

I'm 5'11" by the way.
I'm 5'10" so I obviously prefer guys who are taller than me. My hubby is 6'3" and he's still taller than me even when I wear heels, which is cool.
Though I have dated guys shorter than me before and I think I felt more self-conscious about it than they did :?
You are lucky! :content: I have a fairly short friend who is dating a fairly tall guy, and she says that her tall friends are all jealous because apparently there's a shortage of tall guys.. and she has one even though she could go for someone way shorter!Quote:
