Is height an issue
Jump to: Newest in thread
Is being a short guy a huge turn off to women and coupled.
Genuine question because obviously I'm only short and granted I'm no Adonis or ought infact pretty average of say well apart from my height that is lol.
But is it one of the main reasons you are put off from a profile at all.
Is there many women or couples who like or don't mind a single guy being short. |

My wife is 4 or 5 inches taller than me. Much more if she is wearing heels.
It is a problem in the real world as much as it is in the fab world.
Having said that other positives can overcome that one negative.

It's only important to people it matters to.
Like cock size, cock shape, facial hair, body size, shape colour
I'm 6ft 2 and athletic build I'm not going to appeal to everyone, but I appeal to some. That's all that matters |

I prefer guys to be as tall or taller then me, it’s just a preference thing.
However I’m surprised how many guys on here that are 6ft + on their profile but in reality when I meet them are shorter then me....it’s really not worth lieing about something as fundamental as height! |

I always used to say height was an issue.
I'm just over 6' & never found men shorter than me attractive.
But since joining here, I'll admit I've changed my opinion slightly.
I've met several guys that are shorter than me, but I'd say it was their personality that attracted me, after that their height didn't seem to matter |

Psychologically I really need a man to be a fair bit taller than me. And as I wear heels for swinging, that adds another 3 or 4 inches to the requirement. So in do check. I wish I were a bit shorter because then I’d have more choice of men. On the other hand if I were shorter, the really tall men would be out range.

"In regards to meets from here then absolutely not it doesn't/shouldn't matter at all, it's a sex site. In my dating life then yes it matters."
That’s where you are wrong
Tinder etc then yes
Fabs then if it’s swingers it’s not just a sex site.
Those who are, know the difference. |

My mate at uni was short but he was a prolific fanny rat. The women loved him.
If you got the gift it don't matter how tall or short you are. A sparkle in the eye and a real character adds 6 inches to any man. |

I think that's a fair and reasonable approach. I have played with several taller women over the years. Had it been in a dating context it may have been an issue and that's fine by me.
When it comes to romance I don't feel a need or desire to be taller than the woman I am with.....just as well really lol |

I get lots of messages from shorter guys, not that many from taller guys.
I’ve never dated a guy that has been near my height. 5ft 11 is the tallest guy i’ve dated.
I tend to be more concerned with if they’re a decent bloke rather than if i can look them in the eye when talking.
There is someone out there for everyone. |

I wish people could think a bit before talking, or in that case before writing.
How humiliating is that comment.

Many women are turned off by shorter guys, just like the majority of men are turned off by BBWs. Doesn't mean you have to be rude about it though. |

I don't need to feel protected, fragile or small. I am me, gloriously tall, round, and smiles all the way! And so I don't need you to somehow alter that perception in order to find you attractive.
If you're intimidated by my height... well, how sad. I'm gentle, thoughtful and kind.
You do, however, need a big personality ![](/icons/s/2/cute.gif) |

"People who care so much about height are mostly the type of people that I wouldn't want to meet anyway, even if I wasn't short "
At the end of the day, there are deep rooted reasons for this preference in evolutionary psychology, so it's not something to take offence over. Female preference is also less fixed than male preference, so there are plenty of women who won't be bothered. |

Doesn't matter as long as you don't have a really quiet, shy personality to go with it.
I don't want to feel like I'm overbearing when I meet someone and if I'm towering over someone and they're meek to go with it, then it just wouldn't work. |

Oh I know, don't worry I don't take offence to it. I used to when I was younger but I've accepted that everyone has preferences and so I don't don't worry about them.
What I meant by my first post was that if I saw on a profile that I had to be a certain height or look a certain way or do something etc, then it feels like I'm just ticking boxes and that I have to earn the ability to speak to them which doesn't feel right to me, so if I see a profile with a list of requirements, even if I fit the bill, I won't message them |

But you wouldn't meet any type of woman!? I don't think it's an especially rational preference in today's world, but i understand the natural origins of it. |

No I have preferences like everyone does, I'm just saying that when a profile lists them like "you must be..." I feel it makes the owner of that profile seem a bit high maintenance and only interested in certain characteristics which I think would ruin the fun.
But back to the height issue, I completely understand why it's a thing and why it's so attractive |

Yes. It is important to me. I'm tall and broad and it takes a tall man (5'10 + but ideally over 6) to make me feel sexy. And i just find tall men really sexy. |

Height is important to me because I'm pretty tall for a woman (5ft9) and I'm also large (size 20) and so I prefer a taller, bigger man because it makes me feel more feminine if that makes sense? |

I’m normal height but extra curvy and thus I prefer my men to be taller and well built (not muscled up more the rugby type), mainly so I look a little smaller than I am next to them!(; |

Never fails to amaze me how some people get arsey if they're excluded by preferences whilst having their own.
I'm going to rail against anyone with their upper age limit set at 50...I won't as people are allowed - without challenge to pick their sexual partners as they see fit! |

I too have noticed a difference when the male is around my height. It just doesn't really work.
That and the laws of physics must apply ergo you are the same height standing up or lying down |

I completely understand the issue with height and if say because of it I would hazard a guess and say around 70% of women on here would not entertain me because of it.
But fortunately that is not the case when I go to clubs because they clearly take not notice of that and more about my actual personality and most women I've played with at clubs have been taller than me which is not hard lol.
And seen their profiles on here afterwards and most say must be taller than them lol.

Yes personality is pivotal however they could be the nicest person in the world but if shorter than me "friend zone" |

Lol no not at all in the least argumentative person in world. Not got time in my life for all that.
I just say it how I see it and if someone don't like that or my opinion so be it makes no difference in my life or theirs.
We all have our own preference and nothing wrong in that |

Spot on ma’m...I get the height issue but it’s just part of a package. Depending on what you are looking for in the experience, height is just a factor albeit a very important one for most ladies. Again everyone is entitled to their preference same as, if a guy prefers slimmer vs curvy or faboulous. I for one have preferences but most importantly is that can I have a good banter or conversation before the meet/play otherwise it’s mindless fuckery with no passion ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |
