As a woman, if you must pick one shorter than you or taller but skinny, who would you choose?

Washing machine just broke? He fixed it. Something wrong with the car? We rarely need a mechanic. He’s definitely not everyone’s type but certainly mine. I am generally not attracted to skinny guys, but if I had to choose between tall and skinny vs shorter than me (I’m 5’6), I would choose tall and skinny.

Men who can fix anything are incredibly rare. Similarly women who can cook any meal are incredibly rare

Funny you say that- this was my post about the DH who can fix anything- I can also cook anything - one of my talents is I’m a fantastic cook (and baker). Maybe that’s why we work well together! 😜

I didn’t read the whole thread but my DH is 5’10 and maybe 180, solid muscle, super strong and athletic, and that’s perfect for me. I guess he is “short” since under 6 feet, but I’m 5’6 and 115 so he feels big and masculine to me! I have never dated a man shorter or skinnier than me, but I’m pretty small-boned so I don’t think there are many. I am attracted to a man who is taller and stronger than me, but that encompasses a pretty wide range.

A solid build is more attractive to me than a skinny frame, regardless of height. My sister is the opposite- she goes for wiry (though also regardless of height).

I'm short though- 5'3"- so I haven't really met that many men who are 5'2" or shorter for this to have been a real possibility.
