Why do woman like super tall men ?

I like tall men. Absolutely. I would not, however, say I'm attracted to "super-tall" men.

I've never dated a guy under 6'2 but anything over 6"5 starts getting a little freakish. 6"4 is hot, but the 6"10 guy isn't getting any extra points for height.

I'm a short woman and I can remember when I dated a short guy everyone said we'd be "breeding midgets." Although true, it stung.

haha.. I'm barely 5', and DH is 6'2" and a bit. Most of the guys are dated were between 5'8" and 5'11". I did not go seeking a tall man, but that's who I ended up with.

I did not think about kids when I was dating since I was never sure I even wanted kids. But, it's true that if I had married and had children with the 5'8" guy, my kids would be short.

As it is, my kids are above average, bordering on tall. 20 yr old DS is close to 6'.

Thankfully, on DCUM short mothers invariably have tall sons.

Haha no they don’t. Every week there is a new post where a short mom is fretting because DS is short. They are desperate for clues and success stories that somehow their short 10% of height distribution boy somehow ends up at 6’3” after his growth spurt. Now they have started giving the short boys growth hormones, crazy.

My parents are 4'11 and 5 ft 2 im 5ft and a woman. Brothers are 5'11 and 6ft. Though their wives are 5ft 3 and 5ft6 their son is 6ft 3 and the other son is tall for his age but still a child. So it really depends. I date and I am attracted to tall men only though.

Are your brothers from the same dad?

Yes! Pretty dumb to ask

Its not dumb, both of your parents are under 5’2”? Where did the tall genes come from?

My best friend from highschool found out a few years ago that his dad is not his biological dad when his mom was gifted “23 & Me” and refused to take it. She broke down and confessed to everything.
Both of his parents are taller than him. He and his dad were pretty shocked. Stuff happens.

Women love tall men and it used to be a lot easier to get away with stuff before cell phones were pervasive.

I dare you to talk you family into a a 23 & Me. If you’re mom’s not interested it will be very telling.

More likely, they’re from an immigrant family or poor American family where parents may not have gotten all nutrients. I know many families where the children tower over their parents. It is fairly common if you start looking.

I never understood the hype around tall men . They either are too big like look scary or too stretched out and look awkward .

Tall men have many health problems , and don’t make it past 60 years old . They also are narcissistic , and have poor personalities due to how society worships them .

I personally never saw having tall children as a prize . I would actually prefer if my children weren’t too tall as tall kids are often treated as adults . Tall kids don’t have a childhood .

Being short comes with many perks , short people are healthier , and have an extended youth .

I think men in the 5’8- 5’11 spot look the best , and are the best of the both worlds .

Because they often make more money.

This is true, taller men earn more on average, but there are much better indicators of earning potential than height alone. So it’s kind of pointless to use that as a filter if money is the main thing you’re after.

A highly driven 5’8 guy in medical school is 99% going to make more than a lazy 6’2 guy with a 2.8 GPA. Only if you find two men with nearly identical stats besides height does this even come close to making a difference.
