Online dating/men height

Anonymous
I expect women to use a 10 year old photo or be heavier than shown in the photo and few have failed to do that. But I expect it so it’s no big deal. And if they are smart, fun and can carry on a good conversation I’m fine with it. Why women expect men to be any different escapes me.

5'11" woman happily married for 40 years to a 5'8" man. Just don't come back and complain that there aren't any good men out there. You're cutting out a big death of your dating pool.

yes because men are superficial, so now women are, too. Women can be choosier now than before. I think that's why there are so many incels. They don't like that women are choosier now.


lol

Oh back in the good old days before women were superficial...


"back in the good old days" as you call it, women didn't have a lot of options, so they didn't have the luxury of being too superficial. They can now since they have more options.

Men, oth, could be superficial because they held all the power and bank accounts. Now that things are more equal, they are not happy that women are being just as superificial.

Hence, incels.


Right. Because dating is so easy for women in dc.

Yes and no. You are talking from a perspective of a very tall woman who realized it would be smarter to compromise on height.
But when you are 5'3 - 5'6 woman, you don't really have to do that. And you'll still have a decent pool of available men.

The whole 'woemn only want tall men' thing is a farce generally born out a defense mechanism for them being fat or less than an 8.



It's pretty much the opposite. Once woman is an 8, she has more choices are she will navigate towards tall men.
Ask tall men

No thats not what I am saying at all, clearly people have different preferences. Lots of tall women date short dudes and marry them and live happily ever after. I am not attracted to guys that are shorter than me, has nothing to do with me thinking its wrong, im just not attracted to them, just like guys might not be attracted to me for whatever reasons, and im totally fine with that, we are all free to choose. I clearly state my height on my profile and specifically mention, please don’t contact me if you’re shorter than me, it won’t be fun and men still have the audacity to exaggerate their height by 5inch+


That's it, right there. Even when men have nothing else, they always seem to have the gd audacity.

Women who are >8 gravitate toward successful/wealthy men, not tall men. There is some overlap. But being tall and average income is not going to do you any favors landing an 8+ woman

Well, guaranteed you’re really hot or have a good income, otherwise your height would be a real disadvantage.

Weight fluctuates, so that woman can lose the weight , height doesn’t. You can wish to be 6’ but no amount of diet and exercise can get you there if you’re 5’6

How did she compromise?

Picture this: The stunningly handsome male lead of that new rom-com movie leans in to kiss his equally stunning female lead. Except something is off , he’s shorter than she is ... but you’re not really supposed to pick up on that. No serious Hollywood romance worth its salt would stage such a scene, even when the male lead actor in question actually is shorter than his female counterpart.
All manner of angling tricks, as well as solutions high-tech and low-tech (the actor literally standing on a platform) will be used to ensure that all is right in this cinematic world. That means the man will always be just a little bit taller than the woman.

If you lower your bar really low, yes, it would be easy. But, women don't need to do that anymore. Thankfully. Women can now be choosier. If you are looking for a good looking guy, who makes good money, is kind, a good person, educated.. those are not easy to come by.. anywhere. It's like a man who is looking for a beautiful woman, with a hot body, and loves sex, and doesn't mind cooking and cleaning up after him and doing all the chores. There are very few women who fit this bill, as well.

My DH is generally a kind person; makes decent money; pretty smart, but he's got a total dad bod with moobs and is a bit of a nerd. I'm not a gorgeous model who always wants sex and is willing to do all the chores and childcare and work.

We both compromised, but we're happy.

You should read some statistics about that - 90% of CEOs are tall.
Very feminine women prefer someone towering over them.
