[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m only 5’10 and in college played soccer and with all the running could not gain weight. It would be another eight years before I wandered into a weight room. (Wish I’d started earlier).

My college GF had previously dated a burly football player and she often commented on how short I seemed. We should have just broken up—we were clearly both insecure kids, and it was only years later before I realized her issue at the time was that being with me made her feel like a middle linebacker.

This was in the 90s, when culture pushed women to be skinny rather than strong, so it could be generational for your friend. Now they all want that big centaur ass.[/quote]

Ha. I’m a female soccer player of your generation.  And I was always very muscular- big muscular soccer thighs and it was a fine when the waif/skin abs bones look was the thing.

Every guy I was attracted to and dated was 5’10”.  Though men in my own family are 6’1-6’2”.

Fwiw, soccer players have the best bods of all male athletes.

DP.

I agree that soccer players are gorgeous.

However, my chances of finding a soccer player with whom I am compatible  are even less than those of finding a tall man.

Tall men can afford to gain weight and still look decent.
My tall DH has a belly and is about 20 pounds overweight, but when he is walking out of the room, his long legs make me weak.It would take a shorter man more work and discipline to have legs like that.

Tall people just carry weight better.

But yeah, a shorter man who is athletic and works hard to maintain ( not stocky- I don't like that look), looks very nice.
