"Generally speaking, men in the Northern Plains states and a swath of Appalachia report the tallest heights, while men in the Northeast and Southwest tend to be shorter." https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/10/06/americas-tallest-shortest-states/ |

I’m 5’4” and my height preference is 5’7”-5’9”. I wouldn’t let height be a dealbreaker if a guy was great, but I really dislike dating men over 5’10”. I find it extremely unpleasant. I’ve dated men as short as 5’4” and I much preferred it to dating men over 6’0”.
I know some short women like to be with much taller men, but they look stupid together. |
3 feet 2, or 10 feet 19

| 5'2" woman here. ExDH was 5'7". New BF is 5'9". He is the best man in bed I've ever been with, and also had a woman stop chatting with him on an app due to height. I find that ridiculous! But it's OLD so consider it a blessing to not deal with them longer than necessary, and move on. |
If men can be shallow then so can be women and result of this double doze of shallowness is difficulty in finding and keeping good relationships. |
I'm 14 inches taller than my wife, and we absolutely look stupid together. But unless I happen to see us in a mirror or photo, I totally forget about it. |
| As a relatively short woman (5'3") married to a tall man (6'3"), I can say that it does make certain sex positions much more difficult. We can't really do doggy comfortably for example- angle of entry is just too high. |
| Those women are shallow. Be glad not to date them. |
Boy ain't that the truth!

I’m 5’4” and married a guy who was 5’9”. I always liked and dated tall guys. My ex boyfriends were all taller than 6’ and would probably have weeded DH out on a dating app.
My BIL is 5’10” and complains that there aren’t great women on the apps. I’m sure he has been weeded out at well. BIL earns a seven figure income and a great catch. He is average looking but super smart. I bet lots of women swipe left on him. |

How many single 6'3" men are there in the DMV that make over $1m per year and are between the ages of 35-50? <100? |
There are probably more dmv men over 6’3 making 1mm or more between 18-34 than 35-50 |
| I prefer shorter men--it's easier for us to do it standing up, e.g. in the shower, when he is shorter. |
Not super well educated on the topic, but, I thought black women themselves were much less likely to want to date outside their race (in the US) and not any aversion from men to black women. |
| I’m 5’4 and prefer men 5’9-6’0. Anything more is uncomfortable and does fit, when hugging or doing other things. My XH was 5’8 and the perfect height for me. Some women are silly. |
