Do you prefer short or tall girls?

"Do you prefer short or tall girls?"

Short.

Both work well, also in

@Akiko_Yosano I like dominating that particular starfish. I could lend a hand, or tongue ;D

ive never dated a guy taller than me, but im not that short to begin with. I feel like most girls like taller guys, so id imagine most guys like shorter girls

From my experience, it seems that while there are a number of men who prefer shorter girls (perhaps due to a latent fear of being emasculated), it seems far more common for men to display a love for if not outright fetishize taller women, than it is for women to like guys shorter than them or be outright apathetic to height, at least within my age cohort.

There are explanations for this, culture influencing what we find attractive, height averages across sexes (Women 5'10 or above already at the 95th percentile whereas 5'10 for men is the 55th percentile)

OT: I go with the flow baby. I wish I dated a woman taller than me (I am 5'10, so I am fairly average height) but finding a tall woman is already extremely difficult. Alas, I will likely never be with someone who is tall and fits my basic preferences in a woman.

@PeripheralVision

5'10 is pretty tall, i'd say thats above average from my perspective. Finding a woman taller than that does sound pretty difficult tho

5'10 is taller than average, but only above only 60% of the male population, so men at that height are relatively normal. 5'11 and 6 feet is surprisingly the cutoff for men as they are in top 25% and top 15% of men by height, at least within the states. To be honest, I do not have trouble finding dates because of my looks, but the preference for especially tall men do exist, and seemingly to a greater extent than it does for men (Though it could be explained that we men are openly very horny creatures.)

Theory about why preferences exist to an extent.



Though yeah, the amount of women even above 5'10 are minimal to less than 1 out of every 20 women to 1 out of every 50 women, at least given census bureau data from 2007.
