Men (sorry ladies) would you date a woman much taller than you?

I have really had issues dating men much shorter than I am.
How do you feel about tall women (4 inches or better)?

It makes no difference to anyone except the one dating!

I'm 6'2" .... very few women taller than me.

I'm 5'7". Now problem dating someone taller than me.

Absolutely

I think that’s a woman bias. I’ve seen it before. Most women seem to prefer taller men. I don’t really have a problem with tall women.

I had similar thoughts...

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest, I'm not exactly tall so have had a few partners my height anyway, a few inches taller wouldn't matter. 🙂

I'm not a man but do date women. I'm only 5'1 and my current crush is 5'7. It doesn't bother me. Maybe that's cause I'm fem?? I think it's who you're with not how you look together.

I'm 6'0" tall, so I don't have this problem very much. To be honest, I'm not very comfortable with people who are a lot shorter than me either, so I'd say... plus or minus three or so inches would be OK.

I have dated ONE woman who was taller than I. I am Six foot five inches tall and she Six foot seven. We would step out and get gawked at, especially when she was in high heels. I did enjoy her company.

Sure, but not many women are taller, so it hasn't happened.

Holly Hell! They ring my bell! I am 5 ft. 7.5 inches. I have lusted after Sigorney Weaver and her 6.0 ft. frame for years...and any other big beautyful amazon!

I would date any woman who was beautiful on the inside, regardless of her hight...

You know that "Hey, my eyes are up here!" speech?

Yeah, that. People tend to hold their heads level. Just sayin'.

Personally, I don't have a problem with it. As I am only 5'7" (after stretching), it can happen. Unusual geometry may require a bit of ingenuity, but sometimes awkward is part of the fun. If a thing like a height difference IS a problem, I suspect other intolerances would raise their head soon enough.

Yes I will. I don't care if they are short or tall as long they can wrap their legs around me than I'm cool.

I dream of Amazon women.

@lolamariafe What would be the word? The enchantment? Bewitchment?

Never dated a woman taller than myself is hard to find a woman that would be bigger than a 6 foot 3 inch tall guy. I can imagine that I would like it tall people tend to be intelligent.

This is such a weird, arbitrary thing to me. I mean who really cares, but at the same time it's permeated culture to the point it's hard not to notice. There might be an adjustment period to get used to it, since everyone I've dated has been roughly the same hight or shorter (which is kinda weird since I'm only approx 5'10). But I don't think it would be a problem.

I'm 5' 7" and my wife is 5' 10"

My ex is 6' 1"

Never had a problem with it.

I don't think that it would bother me, but I've never dated a woman who was taller. I'm 5'11" the tallest woman I've dated was 5'9". She made it clear before we met that she didn't date shorter men though.

No problem! I try to stay away from dismissing someone based on body type.

Being 6'7" It's only a fantasy. The taller the better!

I'm sure you have heard the old saying....Everyone is the same height in bed.

...but they're not xD

Oh...don't be so literal. When you are in bed with the love of your life who cares who is taller? @Neraven

I'm easily over 6' and have always had a fantasy of dating a woman taller than me. Sadly it's unrealized. I've gotten used to being with women shorter than me- sometimes dramatically shorter.

1

not a problem....haven't met too many women taller than 6'4" though....well, none, other than in heels....and it doesn't bother me at all....though, this reminds me of a fun story that I only partially remember....haha....it was my 30th birthday? and I was helping out a friend as a roadie/security guy, and no one had even bought me so much as a beer for my birthday....Rozz of Christian Death fame, is dressed in drag, huge high heel platform shoes, standing way taller than me...he hears it is my birthday and we got wasted all night....we had to be the funniest set....me, a biker looking punk, and him giant drag queen....I don't remember most of the night....but it was epic...very sad when he committed suicide...really cool dude.

I am 6'2, I like ladies around 5'10, most I have dated are more like 5'2, but one was 6'6.
A stunning woman by all accounts and she loved the fact that she was taller, many people would stop to talk to us, just to comment on her stature.
