After his successful save of the dolphins, the guy's earned it!

Bao Xishun, a 7-foot-9 herdsman from Inner Mongolia, married 5-foot-6 saleswoman Xia Shujian several days ago, the Beijing New reported.

Bao’s 28-year-old bride is half his age and hailed from his hometown of Chifeng even though marriage advertisements were sent around the world, it said.

1. So what marine life do you have to save to "earn" a 12 yo?

[Left Is Write]

4. ?

[Lars39]

5. Well, according to the OP he "earned" a 14 yo for saving a dolphin.

I was just wondering what kind of marine life it would take to earn a 12yo.

[Left Is Write]

6. No, his wife is 28.

[Lars39]

7. you're right.

15. His wife's height = his age

5'6" :hi:

2. At 6' 4", I'm usually close to being the tallest man in the room

It's always refreshing to find someone I have to look up to, after looking across a sea of heads a foot below my eye level. I'd LOVE to stand next to this man just to see what it feels like to be really short for a change!

3. As usual, the tall guys go for the short girls

And in my estimation, anyone under 5'10" is a short girl.

[BreweryYardRat]

8. Not necessarily. I'm 6'2" and I'll go with anyone who'll bloody well have me.

Problem is, no one will. :(

[hfojvt]

10. well, if you actually saved a dolphin

instead of dressing up like their grandmother so you could eat them ... the big bad seaWOLF

[LeftyMom]

9. Well, if under 5'10" is short, that's most every woman on the planet

and I don't even want to know what that makes me. ;)

13. That Is Extreme

5'10 is tall for a women. The average height for a women is 5'4. How tall are you? I can image a guy like Yao Ming(7'6) saying 5'10 is short for a women, but if you are an average guy 5'10 is pretty tall. women who are 5'3 meet men of 6'9 at about their chest. So, I think a women of 5'11 would meet a 6'+ man at about his chin.

16. Oh. My. God

This is the LOUNGE

Why not head over to GD, where having no sense of humor is an asset, rather than a liability

18. I Have A Sense of Humor

I do have a sense of humor, but you gave no indication in your post that you were joking. Further, what is wrong with what I posted? I just listed some heights to counter you post that any woman under 5'10 is short. Maybe next time you should point out that you are joking. If you do not maybe you should be prepared to have someone contradict what you say.

11. Well, if he's "proportional" she's in for a hell of a honeymoon...

17. You said what I was thinking, I confess.

:rofl:

[Bicoastal]

14. 5 ft 6 in the house....

And lonely as hell. How do you compete with the giants of the world when most of the women you meet are practically at eye-level or taller?

[Parche]

19. Short Wife

So that means she really doesnt have to get on her knees....she can stand?
