(Shorter than 5'6" guys) Would you date a taller than average women (5'9" +)

Quote 2 factors which decide if we like a person or not, eye and feelings

there are thousands, not 2, 2 examples would be the smell of a woman and the sound of a woman.

QuoteHave you ever been in a situation were 1-2 women started talking good about a guy and the other women started liking the guy too? If you hang out with female friends you see a lot of these

men have the same psychological flaw.

Maybe, but I still doubt that the height preference has purely to with evolution.

There's no evolutionary reason for women to prefer tall men. If that happened, men would be a LOT taller due to sexual selection and the race for getting taller would never end. Women preferring taller men over hundreds of thousands of years would have lead to a human race of giants, which is not what we observe.

The reason tall men are more attractive is because of the "looking up" factor. You "look up" to people who are taller than you. I read a pretty interesting book about this exact subject. It has to do more with how dumb human cognition is than how there is a real evolutionary advantage for being tall.

men prefer shorter women, therefore the height of the children in the next generation keeps playing tug of war. it is balanced.

your theory sounds like you just say the first idea that pops into your head.

I have very well-constructed arguments behind my theory.

You and your condescending, patronizing attitude are trying my patience.

but if we had to generalize it would be looks and feelings

I wasn't talking to you rothbard.

my comment was to joax.

I ignored you and your evolution nonsense. 

 you cant get mad at someone who wasn't even speaking to you.

truthfully you just don't like that we have different opinions.


joax brought up a scenario and I told him the answer to why height does not just skyrocket. it plays tug of war between tall and short, slowly progressing.

ps. your arguments are not well constructed.

you require years of learning.

Quotebut if we had to generalize it would be looks and feelings

hmmm I don't really understand what you mean by generalize. but you are correct, it is true that majority of women on the planet if asked 2 describe 2 traits about a man that they want they would say hot and a nice personality.

I think these 2 traits are the traits most commonly thought of by the conscious mind. but I prefer to look at the subconscious mind.

an example would be that the body does not see that someone is hot or attractive, it sees better child bearing abilities, better hormone profile, better genes for better stronger offspring. and it registers this to the conscious mind by saying get horney and recognize he is attractive.

so even these subjective interpretations for good looks and good personality are encoded by genes which are read by the subconscious and then a conscious interpretation is given to the person.

a lot of things that occur between the sexes happen on an invisible and unrecognized level. and a lot of the time we think that only the subsequent recognized level is all that is happening. we have to look at the start of the pathway and not the final result for a decision someone makes for the opposite sex.

Quote from: ReadRothbard on December 23, 2014, 09:55:01 PMThen we must ask ourselves why the perception exists, and also why the perception exists in some areas but not others. For example, if you claim that women like tall men because they are bigger males, thus giving women a sense of protection, then why do women like thin, weak-looking men? For example, women do like Ryan Gosling or Brad Pitt (especially his portrayal in fight club), both of whom are 6'0 tall men, but neither man has a strong, muscular, and powerful body. IF women like bigger men whom give them a sense of protection, then why aren't Ronnie Coleman, Mariusz Pudzianowski, and Brian Shaw sex gods? Why don't women drool over the men in the WSM? Instead of preferring bigger mates, they prefer small, yet tall, toned mates. Therefore, we can determine that this preference for taller men out of feeling "more protected" must neither be rational nor an evolutionary-born preference. After all, evolution would likely outline a female preference for the Brian Shaws and Pudzianowskis of the world, not the Ryan Goslings or Johnny Deps. But, since that isn't what is seen, we must conclude that it is not evolution that is strictly guiding female preferences anymore.

Women want two things: To feel protected, and to protect. This means that they want a man who would protect them out oj the society from other men but at the same time they want a little cute boy to play with inside, *hmm*, the house. They want two things, a tall and cute man.

They actually want milion things, not two
