The pot calling the kettle black

[Strider]

Generally, I like taller girls; though for some reason, most of my girlfriends have been short.

Question: Why do guys like shorter women?

Answer: The Male Ego

Ego plays a big role in some guy's personality. They need to be the one that is taller, makes more money, stronger, and the dominant in the relationship. Unfortunately, it's a oxy-moron ( I don't know if that is right word) because they are "intimidated" by any woman that over shadows them. Basically they are intimated by any woman that is stronger, faster, taller etc. than they are. Which doesn't make sense. How can you call yourself a man if a woman scares you..no offense.

Oh and I forgot...smarter.

Guy, you make a good point about how some guys are intimidated by women who exceed their abilities. But by suggesting that a guy who's scared of a woman makes him less of a man, aren't you playing into that same male ego thinking? I've met some women who are truly scary. I've also been truly afraid of certain ticklers while I'm strapped down helpless on the table. Curiously in neither case did I notice any lapse of testosterone. No offense, but I think that by saying, "how can you call yourself a man, if a woman scares you?" this is just a slightly different manifestation of the same male ego.

Looks like you're just as guilty as the rest of us males, mate. 😉

Let's face it folks- men and women - we're all completely insane.

I ts all about the personality,...nothing more nothing less.

Personality is, for me, the final, ultimate deciding factor. You can be a physically beautiful woman, for sure...but if your personality sucks, you're gonna find that the only attention you'll get's coming from guys who, frankly, uh...need to get the edge off, somehow. If you like that, go in good health. Most women, are, by and large, NOT like that.

For me, a great personality makes things SO much better. In fact, it matters not what you look like, if you have a great personality, well, come here. Sit by me. After all, I could only look at someone so much. Great laughter and conversations last forever.

Well, I'M smarter than you, and you still like me.....




Right?

I've never really taken a girl's height into consideration when it comes to dating. All of the girls that I've gone out with have been shorter than I am, but that's just because there aren't a whole lot of 6'6"+ women running around out there... 😛

Its all about the personality,...nothing more nothing less.

This is absolutely true. Eventually. But when we first see someone we usually don't know anything about them beyond their appearance, and that's what prompts us to pursue them. When you see a girl at a club across the dance floor it's not her personality she's shakin'

I suppose I should add as a disclaimer that I'm not especially proud of my viewpoint on weight =)

What is there to not be proud of? There's nothing wrong with having preferences! And as weary as I am of the skinny=hot dealie, I suppose somebody's got to lie around in those $80 bits of polyester I see in Victoria's Secret . Seriously, I find it annoying when people take offense at other people being attracted to folks who don't look just like them. Variety is the spice of life, as much as I love Clark Kent I wouldn't kick Legolas outta my Shire... 😎 . I will say it's obnoxious when folks act as though what they find attractive is the end-all be-all of beauty, but that's crazy. And we ignore the crazy people

The bottom line is that most men and women are visually attracted to great bodies, by whatever definition they personally have for that. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. But most of us have lives that can't focus on hours and hours and still more hours in the gym (or heroin and cigarettes, which is how many models stay so tiny whether guys want to admit that or not), and most of us ladies are over 14 and have (gasp!) already been through puberty. And sometimes the boob and booty fairy comes with a few lbs we may not have wanted. So, sadly, we don't look like the shiny peoples on the tv-box and the movin' pictures 🙄 . We look like people, people who aren't paid to look like Barbie or Ken; and we can either find someone who's real and cute and feels yummy in our beds and makes us feel good about ourselves, OR we can lament over the fact that many of the yummy girls in reality like to digest their meals and own a set of hips, and most yummy men don't want to work hard enough to look like a refugee from Steroid Monthly when he could be with his woman. I'd rather have him home in my bed than at the gym yelling at himself in a mirror anyways

A perspective from an old guy - ya want what ya want. If yer smart, ya want someone for more than a trim figure and pretty mug.

If yer one of us, ya want yer 'ler or 'lee.

If yer smart, ya want someone t'give a damn about what ya want, and thus ya gotta give a damn 'bout what THEY want. Things work in circles.

Those folks who judge others by size miss out on good people, whether friend or partner.

Then again, they leave open to the smart ones all the great people that aren't skinny mugs.

You are right but I was mostly talking about those men that NEED to have a woman less then they are. The ones that say "I am the man, so I make more money.", "I am the man so she does what I say."

To me, is afraid of a woman's ablility to excell and therefore is unsure of his manliness. A real man in my opinion is not guy who needs to tower over a woman but is one that can let her "shine" on her own and still feel like a man.

I always say if I am trapped in a fire I really don't care if a fireman or a firewoman saves me as long as the are strong enough to carry me to the ladder.
