Do you have a height preference for potential partners??

The closer to my height the better, definitly not too short. I don't mind tall women inless there too skinny.

As mathematically it would take more for taller women to be fatter then smaller ones, I think. Confusing stuff huh???

That it true, in a way, I've heard about that too from watching a show about the science of attraction, but you see it really is about where they put the weight if it's in places like the stomach and thighs and waist then it's considered over weight and most likely they would be considered unattractive but if the weight is balanced such as in the hips, breasts, and butt, that women will probably be considered more attractive, but not too much weight in those places.

hence why men like those parts, for evolutionary purposes.

I still have a thing for tall, skinny, gawky girls

Few inches taller than me so that all I have to do is tilt my head up to kiss. Being too tall will be a strain on my neck and toes. (I do not wear high heels unless I really have to at some formal gathering).

Guys that are shorter than me dun turn me on at all. *thinks about having to lean over* Ew. Also, I can't really feel that safe when a small dude wraps his arms around me. Feels kinda wrong... like a kid hugging me.

I would feel kind of the same way if the girl is too short.

It's weird when I see some coupls in my highschool, the girls are sometimes like 2 grades behind and like half the hight of some of the guys, I don't know why would they ever think about going out with someone that small, there like a 12 year old in comparisen.

It's because they failed with everyone else in their grade and all they have a chance with are people younger than them. Senior guys to freshman girls..... ew. That means they failed with everyone in their grade, everyone in the junior grade, and everyone in the sophmore class.

:lol: Oh the joys of post high school where age doesn't matter to quite such an extent!

I prefer them between 5'8-6'2 feet tall. But I don't mind smaller guys as long as they're not to small.

I think I have some deep seeded mental disorder.

I know what you mean. I'm 5'9 and I don't feel tall at all, but people keep telling me that I do.

Taller or Shorter?

I'm not really concerned with it either way, as there are advantages and disadvantages to going either way. With someone that is taller then me, well that means the person would be at least 6'3" and I feel more then a little intimidated around people too much taller then me, since I'm so used to being a bit taller then most...but the intimidating factor wouldn't be bad, persay, in such a case since a girl that could physically overpower me is shexy. :P

I like shorter though, if I could I'd be shorter. I'm naturally a submissive kind of guy, so the 'head-space' involved with a shorter lass would be arguably more potent then that of a taller one.

In the end, though, all it boils down to really is the height of a partner isn't going to keep me in a relationship for years to come so its not really a factor I consider outside of threads like this.

"but the intimidating factor wouldn't be bad, persay, in such a case since a girl that could physically overpower me is shexy".

sounds like a fetish thing to me.

Being physically over powered by my S/O? Yeah, I enjoy it but I wouldn't say it's a fetish. Fetishes are a little more intense and prevalent in a person's mind then this is in mine.

Yet another bitter lesson in the great disappointment that is life.

Well you are - Say something useful.

I love tall guys. But short guys too. :D So I guess not.

But I do prefer taller than me. But it isn't a big deal if he's not.

I like short girls so I can toss em around and basically control them in the sack. Lol.
I've never done a girl taller than me, because any girl my height looks funny. (sorry tall girls) (not)

i like tall guys. i'm 5 foot 7 and i dont think i could go out with someone shorter than that. i've gone out with guys only a little bit taller than me though

Man, I can't wait ;)

Being a senior and just turned 16 like three days ago, I'm quite lucky to stand at about 6'2". The age thing is still awkward, though - I've never gotten past that enough to worry about height.

Theoretically, same height as me or shorter is ideal. I've never met a girl in my school who's taller than me anyways, though.
