O'farrell Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Tell me where in anatomy or physics does it say that Height has any effect on strength? It does not. Well, it may make the man scrawny. To be totally honest, size doesn't necessarily equate to strength, but it gives the illusion. And just because a man spends time in the gym trying to look like he can fight, does not mean he has a clue how to fight. Why do women see a 5'10 guy and automatically assume he is stronger and can protective better than a 5'7 man? Even if the tall man is skinny and the 5'7 man the 5'10 man always gets chosen.
yongyong Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Why do you ask such stupid question? get rid of that insecurity. no women said 'every tall men can fight better than short men' 1
brahmabull117 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 They don't, they link it with health. A symmetrical/proportionate tall body requires one to be healthy and well fed. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
FredRobbins Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I honestly think those posts about men's height, is just a ploy to get the shortties on this forum upset. They're really subtle with their trolling, and no one calms them out on it.

Even if the tall man is skinny and the 5'7 man the 5'10 man always gets chosen. who gave you that information about how women choose the tall guys over shorter guys and how does the ability to fight come into this equation? I will offer you a fave aussie saying in relation to the fight aspect that you posted....."its not the size of the dog in the fight that determines the champion... it is the size of the fight in the dog" 1
Ninjainpajamas Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I personally think it's based on those hard to reach dishies...I mean who wants to play rock-paper-scissors over who's going to climb on the counter when you can't find the kitchen step-stool? 3

I know short guys are strong . My dad is on the short side and he's strong like bull. I remeber as a kid he would get into scraps, one time I seen him fighting three guys at once. He opens his mouth and ppl shake. Don't under estimate shorties. This guy from highschool used to get picked on for being skinny and got beat up for it. Next year he came back huge, he looked like the hulk. But the dumbass didn't know what to do with the muscles. Still got his ass beat. Size doesn't mean anything.
louise_23 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Well to me height equals physical strength. I am 10st and 5'5", my brother is 12st and 6'2". Hes not built or anything but he's very strong. Versus me anyway. We playfight. I lose on a consistent basis.
Snakechammah Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I'm tiny so I don't prefer tall guys. In fact, guys who are too tall ain't for me. I'd like to tiptoe and kiss him whenever I feel like it - instead of reaching for a step ladder everytime I fancy a little peck. I'm not that short, but most guys are taller than me anyway. So no, it doesn't matter. Girls who prefer tall guys can totally have those too-tall fellas. I'll take the others, no problem
runner Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 oh no not this again LS Mods, can we please have a sticky thread where the height obsessed can have their daily wank, so that the rest of us can just automatically stear clear of it altogether ?? /cheers 1

Between the short guy who is bothered by his height and the short guy who has a 'i don't give a **** about my height' attitude, which one do you think the women will most likely go gaga over ?

LOL, over here we have a saying 'no matter how stupid Hans is, hopefully he's tall enough to reach the bacon [literaly bacon]'.
Disenchantedly Yours Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Both men and women are wired to seek out the best. Height is more a sign of biological strength than physical strength. Its also a sign of status. Men over 6'0" in height make up less than 10% of men. But they make up 70% of CEO's. Height is also a sign of intelligence. Tall people have a higher average IQ than short people. In the end its a status thing. Like SUV's. I have never seen any scientific data that said that tall people are more intelligent. I do agree that height is seen as a status thing and people may perceive someone of a certain height to be more "capable". But that has nothing to do with their real intelligence. Height doesn't mean someone is smarter. OP, I don't link height to strength. I link a man's attitude to strength. I've been attracted to different types of guys. I went out with this one guy I really liked that was 5'3. He didn't recipocate my feelings but I think he was very sexy.
