What is that in blue whales?

And 10.84^)^ 8.84^)^ in bananas

There have been studies showing that bosses tend to be larger (both height and weight) than average, with the trend increasing as you go up the ladder.

US Presidents are typically tall too.

Yeah, it does suck. I get the same benefits as you, and my wife of the same height gets ignored to the point where I have to go to Dr's appointments with her so they actually listen to her.

I also have to keep a close check on being upset about anything, because I'm intimidating just by existing, let alone upset.

Insert Shaq + gf/hamster meme.

Guys aren't that picky about size. We are picky about picking women that will pick us back. Size is very low on the priority list. I'm 6'2". Only one girlfriend was taller than 5'4". They all chose me.

Women are the ones who put height requirements on their Tinder profiles, not men. I've never come across a single profile where the woman is looking for someone shorter. So your question seems very alien to me.

Case in point: my girlfriend says she would not have started dating me if I was shorter than her. As a guy I am conditioned to avoid such superficial thinking because it leads to toxic behavior. Imagine if I would tell her that I wouldn't date her if her boobs were a different size.

I don't understand people who are only interested in a very specific type. As long as a woman is generally attractive to me,^1^ I can be interested regardless of her height. Sexy little hobbit or death by snu snu, it's all good. Same goes for skin color, hair color, and most healthy body types.

^1^ Obviously, finding them attractive in the first place is kind of the point. But I think we can also understand the difference between "would be attractive if not for [insert turn off here]" and "is not at all attractive."

There is the theory that sexual attraction is towards characteristics that are on the opposite side of the normal curve from yourself, specifically so that your kids are nearer the average of your species and thus more fit for their environment. I'm tall and had a huge underbite (until it was corrected surgically) and I go for tiny women with overbites. Also, smart women with money and style.

I'm 6'3" and my wife is 5'4", she's told me many times that my height is super important to her and that she wouldn't have dated me if I were shorter than at least 6'.

Why do most (in my experience) women insist on tall men?

I'm 6'5" and I've had many short girls hit on me. Tall girls almost never do.

I'm 5'7 and my gf is 5'10, she wants to step on me pls send help

Afaik not many guys go out of their way for really short girls. Tall guys rarely meet a woman as tall as them.

If you're a tall guy nearly all ladies are tiny to you. Whether or not they're a bit shorter than average is kinda immaterial.

I rarely ever see tall women. I'd prefer someone closer to my height (6'6'') but women aren't commonly that tall, and it's not something I care that much about.

Because girls are shorter than me. It's not a thing I "go for" it's just my reality.

"Your argument is invalid, because you look like this from up here."

I guess, he needed to show off that his mental grandeur does not match his physique...

Depending on the people and the argument, it could be funny and dispel said argument.

No, it's just a more flattering angle for most people.
