The attractiveness dichotomy: men like tall women, yet the opposite is not true

Edit Post

I am a Googler addict... I often Google celebrities and their spouses and notice that many male athletes, musicians, and celbs who are of average height or tall go for tall women (5' 8" and up).

 
If height implies protection, attractiveness, and manliness to a woman, why shouldn't short and petite imply femininity to a man? It is bizarre to me that many men don't care about height and even prefer tall girls in many cases, when you would think that sexual dichotomy would be desirable on both ends...

I prefer the petite type btw. Just wondering if anyone has a theory about this or gave it any though.

Wow, wasn't expecting so many comments. Nice points raised, seems like I'm not crazy that tall women are less attractive, and someone made a point about the pictures being taken at events often have the women in 4" heels.

Still, I feel that many famous men date tall women, but this is probably for vanity that there is something about a tall woman, maybe even more than a tall man that sticks out, even though the general population of men prefer short or at least shorter and petite women with small waist, narrow shoulders, gentile voice...

Anyway, I think what women say and do are often different and most won't follow the requirement chart posted in real life interactions.

I have also googled for short men fetish or sites for women looking for short men, but these don't exist. For some odd reason, there might be an exception for dwarf men.

what you consider tall is about 5-7/5-11 ? because after 6ft it's not really the case

Exactly, 6ft is very rare and that's entering freakishly tall

I don't buy it. The comparison has "some" validity but it is pretty universal that almost all men don't find fat women attractive, but the other is definitely not true. And anyone who thinks a 5' 6" good looking guy (Jose Altuve?) is in the same class as a fat woman is seeing through distorted lenses

This forum has become R/short with both the incels and the "height means nothing" at both extremes flooding the place and bringing nothing of value (actual LL diary or some info regarding LL) to the place.. Shame... Though thanks to that flooding I was able to get out

Your quote reminds me of a redpill video I watched saying a man needs:

-Facial symmetry
-6'+ height
-Norwood 1 hairline
-Defined jawline
-Wide shoulders
-Deep voice
-Large penis girth
-12% body fat
Etc...

I think that the video was really just trolling neurotics and insecure guys who spend 16 hrs a day on the computer
