Well, I'm a 6'1" Asian guy and everybody thinks I'm huge for my race (I'm also 200 lbs. and work out every day) but I'm like most everybody else here. I'd like a girl somewhere between 5'7" and 5'11". That would be ideal, but I'm not going to reject a girl because she falls outside of my preference.
Agreed, "don't give a shit" option. Though if pressured, I would say... as tall, or a little taller/shorter. You know, what's the word... "average" height? I mean is anyone really gonna pick that they like giants or dwarfs? (Actually I', macrophiliac so that shoots that concept down...)
Decimal system uses periods, not commas.
You meant 1.6 meters right? The way you type it it comes out to 160. And I very much doubt your girlfriend is 160 meters tall...Thaliur said:

Again, it's one of those specialties that some countries use, and others don't. It takes a bit of getting used to, but you understood the meaning.Andy of Comix Inc said:
Then I'm looking for someone about your height, or shorter. I don't like women I have to physically look up to.Rainboq said:
I'm gonna go ahead and second this---"blatant nerd" is not an attractive tendency in the women I've known. Intellect? Awesome. Love of silliness? FUCK AND YES. Obscure interest that you geek out about and can talk for hours to the point where you get me interested in it even though I knew nothing of it coming in? You bet your sweet ass.RAKtheUndead said:
But the cosplaying, PAX-going, "GEEK AND PROUD" types? Barf. No thanks.
My girl will marvel at my strength, adore my battle scarsPaksenarrion said:
I couldn't care less what she'll wear or what she looks like
It all depends on what she cooks like: Beef, pork, chicken ...
Mmmh ...
I'm dissapointed no one continued the song. Loss of nerd points for everyone.
On topic: This. I know a lot of short women who berate themselves and have less opportunities because of it and unless you're prepared to do some strange Frankenstein styled surgeory, it's not something you can fix. So they'll either be dissapointed with themselves forever or try to accept themselves. (Hint: It's almost never the second option).PurplePlatypus said:
As a note, all the women in my family are around 5 feet or less.
Amazing poll graph, I was deciding between the two most popular choices, then selected the most popular (all without looking). I'm 6ft tall, and wouldn't want a woman taller than me, but I wouldn't want one too much shorter either. Remember, this is building here, I'm sure circumstancially people wouldn't instantly dismiss based on height alone 'sorry, you're two inches to short' would be insane. You'd be hard pressed to find a man stupid/shallow enough to select a woman purely on physical beauty, but I think the opposite is equally as stupid (ie. ignoring it).
I also understand if some of the women of the escapist don't take kindly to this thread/ series, for the 50%(?) of people who prefer men to women, why not start a counterpart series?
Also. those of you who've made comments that they 'only' care about personality ect, I'd struggle to believe you're being truthful when you say you aren't assessing potential woman based on physical attributes, at all, if you're not, well that is your business, and height should be a fairly common one. It does seem to go against evolution and natural selection not to though, and we don't have to go back to many years to see height trends in preferencial selection either.
EDIT: Forgot to mention gaming chicks. I think its unfair to claim that they are all intolerable whoever said that, if you've experienced less luck with them fine, but don't say that they do the gender a dis-service, that has to be discrimination on some level... Well, to all the women on here I'd imagine, anyway I didn't like the comment. Related, I would like to date a gaming chick, all of the ones so far haven't had any interest, and I think it'd be cool to share video games.

at my height or a little lower. i don't feel like i need to be manly every second of the day but i feel more like a girly child when looking up at a woman. not saying that they can't be good looking or anything but i just can't get comfortable with someone who i have to look up to.
I prefer female skinheads.... but that looks really good too^^EcksTeaSea said:Who cares hows tall? As long as they look like this
or this
Perfection for me right there.
Actually, commas are accepted (hell, everyone uses 'em) in Norway when it comes to decimals... Even my calculator uses a comma, not a periodAndy of Comix Inc said:
Anyhow, on topic! I don't think height matters that much, as long as she isn't too much taller than me (half a head, or a head taller than me = no). Guess it's because I'd feel intimidated or something, and women are scary enough as it is xD (I'm 178 cm tall, so it's quite rare if a girl is much taller than me, at least in Norway).
This is an issue with men in general though, not specifically here.RaphaelsRedemption said:
Which, uh, doesn't really make it any better, does it...
OT: I don't give a flying fuck to be honest, as long as she's not under 5ft. That would probably be too small, but that's only because I'm pretty tall. Hell, there's over a foot in height difference between me and my girlfriend and I don't care. I wouldn't mind if she was as tall as I was either. Actually, come to think of it, I've never seen a girl as tall as me...
EDIT:
Whoopsy daisy, this looks like quite the double post. You'll have to excuse me, my Captcha was playing up.
