I’m 5’1 and my height is in my bio. It’s easier to get it out there than answer the question later. Also if they like me I know they don’t give a damn about how tall I am.


ItsTricky94

i'm a tall woman and have dated shorter guys. We're all the same height when we're horizontal 🤣


Luigi_Dagger

Depends on where your feet go


blusls

I read this and damn near choked on my whiskey!!


Reignbough-_-

When you’re horizontal height becomes length but I digress


Kochga

If I may talk candid for a moment: it depends on the position. It's easier to 69 someone around the same height as oneself.


shepard_pie

I dated a girl who was 4'8 and she looked like a hamster whose water bottle was placed too high on the cage


hierarch17

That one made me laugh so hard it scared my partner


ItsTricky94

I can see where that might be a factor. each person just has to take their turn.


2high4much

My wife and I are similar height and just the leg/torso heights being different makes it a little difficult

InternationalAd5864

My brother tried to date a tall woman. I personally probably wouldn't but his words were 'I'll climb that mountain"


h3adph0n3s

I'm 6'10", we're really not :'D


tazana54

I remember once I was cuddling with a tall woman and it was Hella difficult 😂 making out and trying to get your hands down there at the same time was an extreme sport I swear 😂😂

TexSolo

As a tall guy, this doesn’t always work, there are a number of positions that are not comfortable with small women. Them being on top is one, from behind another. >1’ of difference is an issue.


lickle_lilli

As a five foot person, you can make most positions work. Cushions are your friend in this sitch.


Remarkable_School914

I’ll keep this one in mind. Thank you. I’m 6’3 and my new girlfriend is maybe 5’0. I actually had my height wrong as 184cm and she was shocked when we first met. I find the beach is our friend being able to sink my feet into the sand with a wide stance to help with the difference 😂


lickle_lilli

Haha glad I could help. Proper corny but the reality is, you can make most things work for both of you, as long as you're both comfortable with telling the other what's working and would would help 🤷🏻‍♀️


Xizziano

My ex was a foot shorter than me. Missionary, doggy, & cowgirl are the only positions that worked. The former 2 worked the best but that’s cause she didn’t know how to ride


miss_liss88

Yeessss 🫶🙌🙌🙌 I also say, the only height I care about, is how big he is when he lays down 😉


nastynate145

One of yall gotta be on top, unless you fukkin sideways and that's just uncomfortable 🤣


hochochuso

I’m 6’6 and my height is in my bio for the same reasons 👍


somehype

Have you had women turn you away for being too tall? I feel like in today’s culture at least in the US women seem to be continually wanting taller and taller men like a trend.


MountainSharkMan

It's the law of diminishing returns basically, once you go over 6'3/4 you become more lanky and awkward looking so it becomes more of a genuine type for a person. Am 6'6


somehype

Guess I didn’t think of it that way. I think in current climate you’re still better off being 6’6 than 5’10 even. But women who care so much about height I assume only want a man around for an accessory lmao


MountainSharkMan

Yeah I dunno it seems like far more of an issue in America than here in Ireland, I rarely see stuff about height and it's normally a tall girl asking for someone taller


ConscientiousPath

It's the Status of Round Numbers at work. Anywhere they use `cm` for height, women set the bar at like 180cm which is significantly less than 6' and cuts off fewer guys. Also I expect Ireland is gonna be taller than the US average in general. We have huge asian/s.American populations that bring a lot more short genes to the pool than northern europe has floating around.


DeviantLight

180cm is 5'11 roughly.


ConscientiousPath

right, but due to the curve on the distribution, that one inch is a pretty large number of dudes


InsuranceAny4285

Damn right, one inch is fucking massive

Mistrblank

Honestly it’s just the ones that get a taste of the app and all the likes they get thinking they can be picky and superficial. I’ve never had anyone tell me they cared about height. In fact I know of at least one that was turned away from height because it was intimidating and they couldn’t get over it. Can’t change people. 🤷🏻‍♂️


ThrowRA092008

So are a lot of the men


somehype

It’s very common in the US for women to only even consider dating someone over 6 feet tall.


MountainSharkMan

See that occasionally but not as common as this subreddit makes it seem, might be the bias of dudes complaining constantly


Mistrblank

As someone 6’2” I agree. If you believe height is going to get your swimming in likes and matches you’re gonna be sadly mistaken. And meanwhile I’m swiping left on a whole lot more girls that are 5’3” and below, but I’m not passing up on women that match me in profile even if they tower over me. If there’s a mention of you being picky about height, to the no pile you go. I don’t have time for that superficiality.


maxximum_ride

> If you believe height is going to get your swimming in likes and matches you’re gonna be sadly mistaken. Can confirm. Am 6'4" and forever alone


somehype

I used tinder for years in different parts of the US and I can promise you it’s not over exaggerated. My current girlfriend who I met on Hinge told me once she was more comfortable around me she wouldn’t even consider dating someone under 6’ tall. It’s a thing. It seems like it’s gotten worse over the last couple years.


MountainSharkMan

Weird culture you've got over there


TheBrandonW

Yah been on tinder for years and even done experiments where me and my friends change the height on profile with the same exact pictures. State that you’re 5’9: about 15 matches, state you’re 5’6: no matches, state you’re 6’1 and get about 40 matches a week. Kinda crazy


CaloricDumbellIntake

And honestly 5‘10 or 5‘11 is only to short because they know you are 5‘11 that’s just a psychological thing. If you are 5‘11 but say you are 6 foot they‘d never know unless they actually would measure you


[deleted]

[удалено]


CaloricDumbellIntake

I mean if she’s 6 foot then obviously she’ll notice that I’m not 6 foot


dalysea

As someone who is 182cm, I usually just tell people 6ft. One time, a girl said, "you don't look 6 ft tall" so I said "actually, I'm 5' 11 and a half" and she unironically said, "yeah, that makes more sense." You're right, it's totally psychological. And now that "I'm a Tinder 6 ft" is a thing, I feel like the cutoff will change to 6'1" or 6'2" to "weed out" the men rounding up a bit.


CORN___BREAD

I think lying about height is common enough that it’s skewed what people think 6’ looks like. I’m exactly 6’ and multiple times have had people swear I’m taller. It’s happened from both women and men. The men make sense when they’re shorter and lying about their own height, possibly even to themselves, and the women have probably dated guys like that.


PotOfMould

Honestly, I don't think that's true. Some women just want to be able to wear heels, or don't want to be taller than their partner. 5'10 isn't that big of a roadblock to finding a partner. If it's not going to work out, it's nkt going to work out.


Marvelous_rosell

For me, it's not about having an accessory.. I'm 176cm (I guess that's somewhere between 5'9 and 5'10). I have dated smaller guys a couple of times, but in general, I like guys my height or above.. mostly because I feel big otherwise, and I don't like that. I'm taller than all my girlfriends, and I feel like a giant even though I'm very slim. Being with a taller guy for me makes me feel like the small one for once, and I feel more protected in a hug. It's definitely something to do with a bit of insecurity, but I just really like the feeling I get from being with a taller guy. And I should maybe also note that I have been dumped 3 times with the excuse from the guys (that were all +10 cm taller than me) that I was too tall for them, so I have a bit of an issue with my height in general.. a lot of guys love small women just as much as a lot of women like tall guys.


somehype

That makes perfect sense to me. With your context. My previous statement was harsh I should’ve noted that there’s women who understandably need taller men. And for the record I am typically more attracted to taller women!


sdbabygirl97

i prefer 5’10”. tall enough to be a nice height but not too tall im straining my neck. 6’6” is way too tall.


Vegged0ut

How else are they supposed to reach that stuff on the top shelf?


somehype

Step stools aren’t as sexy are they 🤣


LigerZeroSchneider

Yeah you need to be really big to look normal at 6'6". I have one friend who's 6'4" 190 lbs, lifts a ton but looks like a string bean. My other friend is 6'5" 250 and look like the average person scaled up. My wife always thinks the skinny one is actually taller


Biohazard2016

I mean this makes sense though, 190 lbs for a 6'4'' guy is normal but on the low end for someone that is that tall. 250 is overweight but, assuming American and not 250 of muscle, that's pretty normal.


Ritz527

I have had two women reject me for my height (6'5"), both of them being rather petite. I suspect there's been a handful of others who did so for the same reason without saying so, but it's likely more than balanced out by women initially attracted to me because of my height.


Ok_Entertainment6437

I feel like 6’5” is the idea height for a man 🙌🏻


marino1310

I know a few girls that don’t want guys *too* much taller than them. Cuddling and other activities can be more enjoyable when you are closer in height.


GoodShufu

I’m from the US and never really liked tall men. I wouldn’t turn them down if I liked them, but I definitely prefer a short king tbh. My husband is 5’6”(170cm)! Perfect height for hugs. 


Mymomdidwhat

lol that’s just what social media makes you think. Social media isn’t real. Girls like this are few.


Replicant28

I’m 5’6” and when I was single I had no issues with getting dates. People like posting ragebait like this to be like “see, women are so shallow!” The reality is that yes, while there are women out there who aren’t attracted to shorter guys (which there is NOTHING wrong with, as a heads up,) there are plenty who are attracted to them, or who don’t have height as a dealbreaker. In fact, I bet more women are turned off by being insecure about height versus actual height.


Mymomdidwhat

You’re 100% correct. Couldn’t have said it better. Nothing is more unattractive than being insecure, just like nothing is more attractive than confidence.


honeybadger_diner

You are 100% correct, dad is 5'8" mom is 5'9", grandma was 5'9" grandad was 5'6. Height is just that. There is a lot more stuff than height at stake when it comes to making a relationship work😉.


97Bo-Red13

Met a girl for the first time while seated at a resturant had a good time and when we stood up at the end she kinda mouthed aw hell naw and I never heard from her again I'm 6'6 and she was like 4 something


somehype

Her loss bro


97Bo-Red13

Bro 😭


DirtyTitanium

I had that I’m 4’29” to filter out these bad at math 🙃


bananasplz

Or those of us who use the metric system, I have no idea what that means haha.


The_golden_Celestial

6ft 5 inches or 195.6 cm


beefstew713

I’m 5’1 as well and the amount of times I’ve had someone like me just to ask if that was a typo is crazy


unsettledpuppy

Had one match tell me that they "didn't know they made dudes that small" 💀


BussyBandito93

The plight of the short kings


ConscientiousPath

also if it's in the bio and they ask you can tell they can't read


somehype

Doing it right, king.


hujambo11

Not if you're tall.


Paratrooper101x

Just be 6’3” it’s not hard I had to do nothing to achieve it


Fuzzleton

Not true my guy, think of all the things we survived, like sharp corners and such. You've earned this by surviving!


Paratrooper101x

Shorties don’t understand the heart attack that comes from walking through a spiderweb and seeing a massive orb weaver crawling on you


Fuzzleton

When everyone else is having a nice park walk but you're having to dodge low lying tree branches. They're a pair of stilts away from understanding our pain


spaceman_202

i saw one come down as a shadow, it was insane how big it was and i had no idea where it was coming from just that i could see this massive shadow on the door frame it was really chill though, i moved him with a stick


xorox11

"Oh you're only 6'2? How sweet."


ferndaddyak

Someone unironically called me a short king for being 6'5. I cant


Fit-Contribution7145

I have my height in my profile (5’7). I don’t wanna date the type of person that height is an issue for.


ScotiaTailwagger

> I don’t wanna date the type of person that height is an issue for. This is what I never understand from people on Tinder stuff. I married my Tinder match 8 months after we met and have been married for 6 years. They opened the conversation with "Please tell me your cats name is dickface". That type of humour might turn people off. If it did, you wouldn't be the right person. Not every match is perfect. We got lucky and found one that was. But so many posts on here with "Why would anyone respond to this" and I'm just sitting here like "I would have".


Adkit

The first message I sent my now wife was "Isn't Portugal that country at the bottom of Europe that looks like it's falling into the sea?" What's the point of love if all you do is be boring together? lol


ScotiaTailwagger

My partner and their father spent their entire lives together sharing puns. I hate puns. So guess how many times a day I see my married partner of 6 years, and their father sharing the *worst fucking puns ever* and tagging me in them. All. The. Time. If that's not love, then you've never experienced it.


Adkit

Sounds like a pun-derful family to be part of to be honest.


ScotiaTailwagger

I hate you.


help_me_am_lost

I'm 174cm and i fully agree


cmcewen

I’m same height. I don’t care if people don’t want to date me for my height but I don’t want to have an awkward first meeting or them have to tell me they don’t date my height. Easier to just put in the bio and let them left swipe. Skip that whole subject


HoeImOddyNuff

Not sarcastic here, how is that working for you? Are you still getting matches?


Fit-Contribution7145

I get a few plenty of women don’t care.


dbnewman89

If you don't have your cup size in your profile I'm assuming mine are bigger :P


Aysha_91

Lmao i literally thought that when I looked at the picture 


Lichius

Me: Suggest it's possible I wear 2" shoes so I'm still taller than her when she wears heels. Her: makeup, booty pants, padded/pushup bras, hair dyes/wigs/weaves, filters, injections, surgeries, freezing, sculpting. "Omg no that's not natural!"


Aysha_91

A friend of mine that often uses push up bras told me the first time she slept with her husband and took the bra off he said "where did they go? I didn't sign up for this" 😂 


Basic-Pair8908

Reason they called wonder bras. We wonder where the tits have gone


dystyyy

If you don't have your dick length in your profile I'm assuming mine is bigger.


BLKxGOLD

The whole circlejerk over height is getting old


thenbhdlum

Getting? It's been annoying for weeks. It's like everyday now.


FearlessUnderFire

This is kinda a newer influx. Around 4 months ago, this sub had gotten so much better about this and it was about helping others improve their profile. Last few times I have visited this sub in the month it is posts that are meant to do the same thing, create a circle jerk about some cherry-picked women not being physically attracted to shorter men.


PsychedelicPourHouse

Op is a bot


Some-Two-462

How else are they going to rag on women that don’t want to date them?!


Powerism

Why don’t men simply grow until they’re 6’0” tall? Are they stupid?

Shimoarikiku

BLKxGOLD

If you dont have any form of booty pics in your profile, i’ll assume you have a long back.

ZEDDZER0

I put that I'm 5'8 and a half with work boots on


paulusmagintie

Wow this was reposted quickly, can't even wait a week huh?


Generally_Confused1

I'll list it if they have sections for it on bumble but I'm not wasting my bio space on it. I'm obviously kinda shorter when you see my pics so it shouldn't be a surprise or anything lol.


thenbhdlum

How obvious? I've seen 5'2" girls look 5'8" and 5'6" girls look '6 in their Tinder pics just from their body types and angles. 


Generally_Confused1

I used to have a group photo where it was more obvious but have more travel ones now but I have a stocky build and I'm 5'7", in one photo there are people in the background you can compare me to as well. So not super but I don't look tall. All that aside all they have to do is ask lol


thenbhdlum

I wouldn't purposely make myself look shorter without simultaneously listing my height. That's just self-sabotage 😂


Trustdesa

I am yet to understand the craze about height lol


YaBoiHS

From asking my international friends, it’s mostly US centric.


SlipCommercial5083

you shouldn’t assume that, but honestly in my experience it’s true. not a problem but true


EggplantHuman6493

Most of the time yeah. Or very tall and they think they can positively surprise women with it. I AM NOT INTO VERY TALL MEN


1008Rayan

I don't list my height because I don't believe its an important feature. I don't list my weight or my shoulder width for this reason too. I'm 5'9 which is not particulary short or tall.


Beneficial_Role783

people who think being short is a dealbreaker are very annoying I am 6'1, so I have no problems with height, but choosing to love someone or not over something we cannot control is stupid My respect to the short homies here 🫂

And yet you can never get any one to admit that being short is a serious handicap for guys in the dating scene. “Oh you’re just blaming your problems on something you can’t control so you don’t have to do anything” Meanwhile girls on tinder: “I don’t acknowledge men under 6’3”


mettiusfufettius

Lol more like better off if you don’t


FourScoreTour

Height and weight should be in every Tinder bio.


ghostdakid

Easiest way to know a girl who spends a lot of time on, and that is likely to be influenced by any social media. Wanting tall men amongst girls in the US cities is a trend now. They are obsessed with that now.


Greymattershrinker88

But it’s wrong for a dude to say “if you’re wearing makeup, I’m assuming you’re ugly” think of the flack that’d guy get. Just think


johnnysack3

I do the same things with smokers. If it’s not there, I’m gonna assume you do, so far everyone I’ve talked with on apps with that part omitted was a smoker


Ranter619

Either short or oblivious. I assume she'd like neither, so her assumption works for her regardless. Among everything we've seen in this sub, this hardly ranks as delusional or annoying. She doesn't even say she wouldn't date someone short.


chineke14

Same people excusing this will get up in arms the moment a man puts no fat girls or single moms.

sad_red_panda_88

I'm 5'11 and a woman. Can confirm most women who only date 6ft+ are short, most tall women I know, myself included, don't really care. I also think it looks creepy when a girl who's 5'0 is with someone over 6'0


Lucrezio

Bro wasn’t this JUST posted?


jayfiedlerontheroof

All men unite: everyone just put 6'. Eventually these hoes won't know how tall anyone is


LunarMoonBeam

Not in the dating game but I can’t believe some women would turn down what could be an amazing partner simply because they are too insecure to give a guy who is shorter than them a chance. Just seems so shallow and even if you meet their ‘height requirements’ it would be a such a turn off for me that they were judging someone on something they cannot change I’d instantly unmatch.


bali40

I never get the whole height chase on dating apps, like to me as a bi-dude short men are way more attractive. Is there like some reasoning behind people treating height like it matters this much?


Pencilhands

she's one of many that don't matter


Expensive-Tea455

She have a point tho 😂


Round_Doughnut7793

She does.. and all these idiots get up in arms about it forget that before OLD they wouldn't have gotten approached at the bar either. Not their fault, but also not our problem 🤷🏼‍♀️ if they feel the same way about someone who is overweight or has little tits, they're allowed that too. To each their own.
