kappadgirl095 Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Okay so im sure this question has been asked before, and maybe it is kind of dumb, but if your guy do you prefer short or tall girls.....or does it matter. If a girl has a good body is it okay if she is short? I'm 5'2 and I always feel self-concious about it like guys want girls who are taller w/ long legs. Okay just wondering what anyone thought.
Tony T Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 There are guys who prefer petite (short) ladies and some who prefer women approximately their own height. If a guy is 5'6" tall, he will probably be crazy about a lady 5'2". To a great many it doesn't really matter but many men do not care for women who are significantly taller than they are. On the other hand, when I read the personal ads in the newspaper and on dating sites on the web, I notice that a great many women are looking for tall guys...6 feet or more. Everybody's different and everybody has their own likes and dislikes. It all works out in the end. 5'2" is a very good height for a lady and there are many guys who will fall instantly in love with you...so don't worry.
jerbear Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I have to agree with Tony T. 5' 2" is kinda cute and a good height. I would be going on a blind date with a girl that height. So there is at least one guy out there. Long legs are great but there are other parts of a woman's body which is attractive. I do know most women I've encountered prefer taller men, 6 feet or higher; some even compromised by going as low as 5'10".
vertigo Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I agree with Tony T's advice....5'2 is not a fault whatsoever... I am 5'6 and I know that is short for "guy" standards but I do like to be to at least the same height or taller then someone I am with and that is hard to come by... as far as your feelings that someone has to have long legs to be attractive I think you have that impression because of the way the media portrays the perfect body. Bottom line... be happy with who you are and there will be someone out there that will love you for who you are... don't ever think you have to be something you are not . Be yourself and you will find someone that is looking for exactly what you have to offer.
burning 4 revenge Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 5'2 can be dead sexy as hell. i'm 5'8 and so i'm on the shorter side for guys myself. some of it is just a matter of preference. my post in the water cooler referenced my going to a strip club today, and when i go i generally spend too much money on "shorter" latin girls with black hair and thick backsides. i'd prefer that physically to tall blonde and big boobs anyday
Love_the_Loni Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 It doesn't really matter. It can be preference, but we're attracted to both. As long as you carry yourself well--confidence, take care of yourself. Insecurity is the least attractive trait.
trebon Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Im a 5'8" guy and I have no trouble with height at all. either way is fine because different people have different traits and it is just a part of who you are, confidence, even if put on a little, breeds confidence, which breeds selfesteem and then even if you aren't what a guy imagined his ideal woman to be, you could show him what he's missing out on! Having said that, some people are just shallow and it is not worth worrying about them. My ex was two inches taller which didnt bother me for the above reason, but drove her crazy and then one day shes off with a taller guy!!! But that was after five years so im sure there was more to it than that! Look after yourself and be yourself, that way you will find someone who likes you for you, not an image you portray. Good luck

I don't have a preference. As long as she is attractive and has a great personality, then shes a keeper.
Michael426 Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 Height is irrelevant. I have dated girls ranging from 4'2" to 6'3". (I am 5'11".)
Curmudgeon Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 I've seen some short women who were so lovely and so sexy it would being tears to my eyes. On the other hand, there's a lot to be said for long, well-shaped legs on a tall woman (the rest being proportional, of course). My wife's 5' 8", a former professional dancer (that's where the long, well-shaped legs come in) and that seems just right! If she'd been 5" 2" I still would have taken an interest and married her.
burning 4 revenge Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 so you see, every guy is different. i've never looked at long legs in my life. i even like it when a girl has a bit of cellulite on her cheeks...not a lot, but soft and full and round. everyone is different
scrybe74 Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 I don't think it matters so much. I've never heard of a guy complain that a girl was too short for him. Tall and short have there advantages and disadvantages. I never get why girls get so insecure about being short. The only concern that I or any other guy I knew had about height is if the girl is either taller than you or your equal height. I'm 6 ft and the shortest girl I ever dated was maybe 5 ft or 5ft 1 in. She was awesome in bed....I can easily pick her up and did all sorts of crazy positions.....what a blast. The talles girl I've ever been with was 5' 10. Different body type but just as much fun. Long legs for days. I wouldn't say that anyone's height made much difference though.

Okay just wondering what anyone thought. hi, personally, i adore short girls with short hair and all. i like it if they're all playful and sporty and stuff. my girl's like that. she's so much fun. dont worry about your height... dont have to be concious about it. by the way... tall girls with long legs... they might sometimes look attractive but then i think short girls are like so cute... hahaha... : )
Charliegone Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Height is really of no importance to the majority of guys..what we tend to look at most is the body. She has to be attractive to us (and each one has his own preference.) IMHO, the outside stuff only arouses our attention for a while you know....looks do not always work especially if you want to keep a lover. The right attitude goes a long way.
anto0o Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 in my opinion i love short girls, i say that because i'm only 5'4 myself and my ex is 5'2 and we made sucha cute couple. most of my guy friends say they prefer a girl that is shorter than them, short is def sexy IMO
JamesM Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I am six foot, my wife is 5' 5'. She is a great height. My past gfs have been 5'5" and 5' 7" . I don't recall either having been better than the other. I did hook up with a girl at 5' 2" once, and if I recall that was one of the best times ever. I loved the fact that she was shorter. And yes, personality wise, I connected very well....I don't know what happened to that one? It is not the size of the girl that matters it is what she is made of. And I mean that much more than sexually. For me if the girl is taller than me or close to it, then I have more difficulty.
sacred cow Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 i love short girls, there's something about them that's sooo sexy and cute. the last girl I dated was really short (5 ft) but I loved her for it (im 5'8), don't worry about being short, a lot of guys like me find girls like u irresistible
