I would think anything over 6'4 would be the height that it becomes unattractive :laugh:

He asked why we date men who need to make up for shortness.

 

Fine, then we won't date short guys at all!

 

Problem solved :p

One more plug for positivity in humanity... and then I'm Audi 500 for the day.

 

This being the Olympics time, I was googling gymnasts and came across this guy on the US team (Go USA! :bunny:)

 

Jonathan Horton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

He's 5'1" and white. This is his wife.

 

Player Bio: Haley DeProspero - SoonerSports.com - Official Athletics Site of the Oklahoma Sooners

 

Sure, she's short too, but if she were a 'normal' woman, she wouldn't even touch a guy 5'1".

 

I mean, she's not that short for a woman, cute, great body, talented, and she's a freakin' gymnast (think flexibility guys). She could get any guy she wants pretty much. Could she set her bar at 5'10"? No doubt. I mean, what is wrong with her? Doesn't she realize she could do better?

 

Instead, she realizes that she is attracted to him despite his height and they have common ground ... gymnastics. What a novel concept! :eek:

 

 

 

I've said this before, very short guys need to go for shirt girls. A 5'0 girl usually won't mind dating a 5'3 guy

I could start a thread with 'at what weight does a woman of average height become unattractive"

 

Or rather, "at what age does a woman become unattractive". But we already the know the answers anyway. :rolleyes:

 

Men are just as shallow about age, beauty, youth and whatnot so this thread is just showing off men's ridiculous hypocrisy. :rolleyes:

It's not about weight for women but how you look

 

 

 

I dated a girl who was 5'10 170 and she looked absolutely amazing. MONSTER curves

 

 

 

Perfect girl for me would be like 5'5 140 with a huge butt and thick muscular thighs from deadlifting and squatting 3 times a week :love:

Well, that's because guys have very lax standards when it comes to sex and dating. The same doesn't hold true for girls. Quite the opposite in fact.

 

Aren't you a sweetheart?

 

Since you agree that her own standards won't be so lax, I'm sure the men she's dated have not been desperate (as you've intimated here).

 

Women are more picky then men. That's just the way it is.

 

I don't think so.

 

One thing you'll never see, is men saying that they'll refuse to date a girl who is 20lbs overweight

I've seen it. Not only men who are dating (or wanting to date, or get a FWB), but some who are married and complaining about their wives putting on even 10lbs.

 

It's good that not all of you are that way; I know of several happy couples where both parties have put on some weight, and are still in love. They're now trying to lose the weight, but have admitted that it happened because they're happy, and that they'd rather be happy and a little chubby, than without their partners.

My preferred height is 6-6’2”—give or take and inch.

 

Good choice!

 

I’m tall (5’9”),

:love:

So what? Why would a guy whose done nothing wrong except be born 5'8-5'9 (not exactly dwarf height :rolleyes:) want to date a woman that's only with him because he "made up for it" with a good job, a large social network/connections, or giving her lots of expensive gifts?

 

 

 

I don't disagree with a ton of what you're saying, but don't you think you're being hypocritical in the sense that you would do the same thing and ask the same thing from a woman who is not good looking?

 

 

What has a 5/10 woman done to deem her inferior in the eyes of all men except not be born with superior genetics like the supermodel/pornstar? Why is it okay for us to ignore the average or ugly women yet it's not okay for women to ignore the average, ugly or short men?

 

 

Bottom line is, life isn't fair. If you're not the prime specimen for either men or women, then you have to make it up in either ways - in terms of being a great lover, having a great personality, etc...

What incentive is there to have a committed relationship with a woman who is a whore, when you can have the same thing only with a variety of different whores every weekend?

 

I don't do the "boyfriend" bull****. If I meet a woman and decide she's good for more than sex, than that means I imagine her mothering my children and as my wife forever, where we stick together through thick and thin. Nothing less than that I demand. Why in the world would I want a woman that would divorce me as soon as some hiccup or complication happened that destroyed what "made up" for my "defects" like losing my job or even getting cancer and losing my exagerrated muscles?

 

The fact that some beta males who happened to stumble into a good job or a lot of money actually have relationships with women that wouldn't have wanted them before is not logical to me, just a testament to how widespread the mentality of woman worship like Somedude81 or even Pyro (at the other end of the same spectrum) has is.

 

So yes, don't date men of average height for their "compensation". Keep dating the 6'2 guys that have nothing else going for them, because eventually it'll catch up to you when you're 38 and realize neither the 6'2 guys you chased want you anymore, and the 5'8 guys you women who think you're better than you actually are wrote off with the utmost yet unironic arrogance , are not available or want you anymore.

The guy likely would want the woman because she's above average in some aspects or it's an common standard that that have some unwanted trait to make up for it. No different than how often women in their 30s having to make up for their age to date guys their own age.

 

I highly doubt that mentality of woman worship is widespread considering the amount of anti-American Women, Foreigh Women Are Better, and anti-marriage movements. Seems more like the mentality of sex worship is widespread.

 

It's logical to me that some guys would have relationships with women that wouldn't have wanted them before as to me attraction isn't initially unconditional. No different to me than how some gals have relationships with men that wouldn't have been with her when she was overweight or obese.

 

As for not dating men of average height depending on the country heights like 5'8'' and below aren't average such as in the US the average height is 5'10'' going by the last statistic I've seen.

Very true.

What kind of men would want to drive 1978 car with fading paints, sagging seats, loose gears, used up motor, out of lubricants and many previous owners?

 

yes guys are shallow.

 

 

 

 

Men are just as shallow about age, beauty, youth and whatnot so this thread is just showing off men's ridiculous hypocrisy. :rolleyes:

The Eskimo males average 5'4/5'5. Last time I checked, they were pretty alpha and their women don't have a problem with it. Perhaps it's a cultural thing.

Who cares,what some women want and what they can actually attain are usually two different things

 

The amount of tall men in general isnt a big pool then add in tall men who are actually really good looking and its evne smaller so these women who want tall dark and handsome better be more thne just cute or ok or theyll have to "settle"

 

Just because your friends and daddy said your pretty all your life doesnt mean the general male population agrees

I see plenty of short men out there with wives and girlfriends so once again LS does not reflect reality. This place is like the Twilight zone sometimes.

yep, if you're 5'6, go for the 5'3 girl. Common sense really

lol at men being butt-hurt on the height thing. Get over it. A woman who has an unattractive face/body shape etc is born that way too and she is going to have less options because of it. It's all the same thing.

Yes but the 5/10 women can get sex from a men above her league

 

I have good looking friends who pump and dump average women and these women think they can f their way into a relatonship with a good looking guy

 

The sad part is these women actually trick themselves into thinking it was a relationship when my friends barely remember their names

 

Then these women call all men pigs who use women for sex when thye ignore men closer to their level

That 5/10 woman usually has no lack of 5/10 men wanting her.

 

A guy whose a little shorter than average doesn't have short girls wanting them, usually it's the complete opposite. Very few if any short girls are going to like a guy whose not atleast 8-9 inches taller, and tall women don't generally like guys under 5'10 as a rule.

 

5/10 women have options, if they want to date (which they usually do) that 8/10 guy then yes they have to 'compensate'. Meanwhile I could personally care little to nothing about height, most guys of average or short heights feel very similar to me. Even the tall guys don't really care, though you'll eventually find a "she needs to be shorter" guy in this demographic due to their dependance on being taller than other people to get noticed, instead of actually doing things and earning it. I don't need some magazine cover broad, I prefer natural looking, simple women if anything.

 

 

 

Sorry dude, I don't agree with you. 5/10 women struggle just as much as 5/10 men to find dates and relationships. That's complete nonsense if you try to claim otherwise. Go to female forums and you can find plenty of women like Verhnz who have problems dating. Furthermore there are plenty of relatively short 5/10 guys who have options but those are the ones who usually have very positive and pleasant attitude. You have to keep in mind that attraction for women doesn't work the same way as it does for men - personality is a bigger part of the female attraction than the male attraction by a good margin

 

Truth be told, I'd rather be a 5/10 man than a 5/10 woman any day of the week. At least as a man you can significantly improve your status and value by having a great personality, having a good job, etc... A lot of women's value in our society is good looks and if you're not born with a pretty face and big boobs, then your potential is limited

 

 

Anyways, your point about expensive cars or money is mostly nonsense too. Most people date people in the same income bracket as theirs. Gold diggers who demand that a man make six figures or drive an expensive car are a small isolated part of the female gender

 

 

You gotta look at things objectively

This. Not all women are going to get the tall dark handsome man anyway although they all lust after them. Same with men who want the most beautiful girls...It's just...not gonna happen!!

That 5/10 woman usually has no lack of I must've forgotten to block this robot on this account.

 

Anyway, most of the anti-woman stuff is on the internet. On the internet people express their true feelings and are reacting against the various problems and idiocies of modern society, but in real life most people are cowards who fall in line with the status quo to save their social lives, reputation, jobs, publishing deals, etc. Men nowadays are deathly afraid of women, the inverse of how most of civilization functioned until now.

 

Nowadays all of society is supposed to go along with how a woman sees herself , even if her self-image is not based on reality. The typical female character trait of the modern world: lack of self-perception. And many men, to share the blame, are guilty of feeding and maintaining this by actually entertaining certain ridiculous notions modern women hold, all they want is to benefit from both post-modern degeneracy and traditional chivalry, without having any obligations to live consistently with the cons of both.

 

Most of the anti-woman stuff being online is your experience mine vastly differs. It's existence supports the doubt in woman worship being widespread to if there is woman worship it seems more like false worship.

 

I highly doubt men are deathly afraid of women rather than rejection by women they want. Lack of self-perception and wanting to benefit from modern and traditional roles isn't a thing exclusive to women it's a people thing. There's many guys out there that aren't as great, good, or nice as they think they are. There's many guys out there that want an equal contributor while being the one who wears the pants since he was born male.

Some can and some can't no different than some guys can and some guys can't though the guy probably has a better chance at getting more than sex. Though with the availability of prostitution to me getting sex from someone out of one's league seems like a wash.

There is just as much anti-marriage and anti-relationship stuff from women these days. Also just because a man is anti-marriage does not mean he is anti-woman. George Clooney doesn't strike me as being a man who hates women. A friend of mine never wants to get married ever but he lives with his GF and certainly does not hate women.

 

I am pro-marriage because I did it myself but I realize it is a shaky institution in this age and I would never judge a person for not wanting to do it. I know this is off topic but just wanted to clear that up.

Nowhere did I state, suggest, or imply otherwise. I stated with the amount of movements against women and relationships with women I highly doubt that woman worship is widespread.

 

Curious to why did you feel it needed clearing up when nowhere did anyone state, suggest, or imply that there isn't anti-marriage/anti-relationship from women or that a man being anti-marriage means he is anti-woman

I'd rather be the man too, but not for romantic reasons. An ugly woman can get a decent looking mate just by not being fat, atleast in America.

 

I know you love hollywood gossip, so I will show you an example you could comprehend. Look at Tori Spelling and her husband, who is pretty much what every woman is looking for in a man physically. Tori Spelling has a hideous face, yet she was able to get with a guy far above her in looks.

 

 

 

That isn't true. How common is it for famous guys to leave their women for the nanny , etc? Most famous men are married or dating nobodies, while women in hollywood instead opt for fellow movie stars, or bigger names than them.

 

What did I just read? Nothing about that man's face is attractive. Thin lips, extremely small eyes. He is just..tall :laugh:

I'm really short myself so unless a guy is below 5 feet I probably wouldn't care.

But don't you see, his tallness is an aphrodisiac, like catnip for women, his tallness maxes everything out and makes him a 10.

 

Oh, what do you know, I'm tall, I guess that makes me a 10 :lmao:
