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

Quote from: CaptainAmerica on March 20, 2018, 07:52:01 PMOkay, so you are getting limb lengthening surgery to be a nice friendly, "confident" guy and date a fat 30+ year old mom? Lmao good move. This is the real world. People have preferences. There is no tall woman hate. If a tall woman asked me on a date I'd give her a chance, but she wouldn't be my first choice. If a short man asked for a date, you'd see this:




that's really the kind of women you want ? that's typically a Saxon behaviour
you could find the same tweets about short / tall women
going to that kind of twitter profils ("exposing heightism") is like sadomasochism, you have to be stupid to do that while IRL people are clearly different

Not everyone in this world is a shxthead, no matter the gender.

Wake up and smell the coffee man. There are thousands of tweets like this, and this is how society in general views short men. These minority opinions aren't minority opinions, everyone has them underlying but only a few women are vocal and cray enough to voice them. There is no other reason why shorter men are paid less, why they commit suicide twice as much, oh wait I know you probably don't accept those statistics because those short guys weren't  "confident and charismatic." I've said it before and I've said it again, people view short men as Danny Devitos/jokes basically and that's why we're here getting LL, I don't care about being tall, I'd just like to be seen NORMALLY.

It's not 1400, there is no "Saxon" behavior, this is how modern privileged women with no restrictions or limits on their life behave in the first world.  It just so happens unfortunately that they also usually happen to be the most attractive.

Also, no, people in real life are not different. It's just like racism, sxxism, every other -ism. They all still exist in great quantities, but people are afraid to talk about them now because they don't want to lose their jobs. What people feel, say, and tell each other behind closed doors is different than what they portray to the world.

Mostly because these are biological problems. You can change what someone says, but you will never, EVER, EVER change what they biologically feel. Women will never find short men attractive, men will never be interested in trannies, people of different races will never see each other the same or experience as much empathy as they naturally do for same race individuals, it's just reality. You can not fight biology with "being nice" kum ba ya propaganda. Biology will override the pleasantries eventually, and someone will get hurt.

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

Cap: there's the fact that younger people say more stupid things to get attention, so there's that. We tend to be harsher toward people we don't understand as well, and usually it's from insecurity; maybe she's using short men as an excuse for not attracting the right kind of men.

I do believe that most people are sensible, and that people like the girl in the tweet are just a loud minority (still echoing today...). For instance women may turn down a short guy because she prefers a taller guy, but most won't resent short guys. I'm sure that men who prefer prettier and skinnier women don't necessarily hate unattractive or overweight women. It's just "no thanks, not my type" and move on.

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

IMO, women are irritated by the existence and presence of short men in the same way men are irritated by fat women. It’s not only indifference but resentment and annoyance.
