In reply to the discussion: Study: Women all seem to want taller men [View all]jamzrockz
(1,333 posts)55. What he said
Gonna violate rule #1 by bringing up an anecdotal story. I am 6"7 and I have been chatting up this girl that is 6"6 and the only thing in bold on her profile is "Yes, I am 6"6 and its not a typo". She was clearly looking to attract someone taller than she is and was just more receptive to than the normal height girls.
The good thing is that this is not a problem for the vast majority of women out there. Its not something they ever consider since most of the men they meet will be taller than them. But for the really tall girls, height is definitely on their mind and they want someone taller or as tall as they are.
