A woman who is preparing to meet h a man she matched with on Tinder has provoked a lively debate about whether height really matters when dating, ater admitting she's nervous about him potentially being shorter than her.
Posting anonymously on Mumsnet, the UK-based woman explained she's 5ft 8in and has always dated taller men, and asked if she's 'incredibly shallow' to worry that a man she's planning a socially-distanced date with might be shorter.

“They ask openly for the third party to have a large penis....or be black”
What the heck, havent they heard of that nation in Africa where European women go to have that fulfilled lol.
I’m 6’3” and ironically, I prefer either taller women (over 5’10”) or shorter women (under 5’2”). 6’1” or 4’11” is not a problem for me. It’s a preference not a requirement and I ended up with someone who is 5’7”.
My brother’s wife is an inch taller than he is. He was a really buff construction worker when they met, with a very manly personality. He is 5’7”. She thought he was hot, and loved his sense of humor.
Thank goodness I am in a nation where I can date Central or Eastern European women, now only if this lockdown can end and i can travel again.
There ain’t no romance without finance....
My wife is 5’2”. I’m 6 foot. For some reason, when she stands on the stairs and kisses me eye-to-eye, I find that a turn-on...
I guess I'm shallow...times two.
I worked Jamaica a lot in the 80s
Fat White women mostly from Canada or Germany ....this was before American White women got all jungle fever....they would come to Montego Bay or Ocho
To get skinny black guys to rail em
They would pay the guy or buy him stuff....it was too funny and a bit sad
A skinny unwashed dread walking around arm in arm with a fat sunburned white woman....him carrying bags of stuff she’d bought him
I stayed next some and you’d hear em caterwauling and moaning all night...these guys would use china brush....camphor in a rock....to deaden their Johnson do they could go on and on
Oral sex on a woman was forbidden same as battyman stuff.....Jamaican men unless upper class no way they would go down on a woman (an untapped market there btw)....even Jamaican white like Kamala Harris daddy folks would have eschewed it
On occasion some comely thin hapless girl who had come down by herself would approach me to hang out as cover so the local men would leave them alone
The men figured any single White woman wanted it
Negril was for skinny hippie chicks....some who were dreadlock girls and some not so much
But fat Canadian women looking to get worn out..
Had come to the right place no question of that..
No matter how fat or unattractive....you can always buy enough dragon stout for that....and this was pre viagra
I used to wonder what their peers back home would think....
It’s like men goin to Manila or Bangkok for young girls...maybe not quite as bad
There is a fine looking blonde woman in our housing tract who I would guess is 6’ tall. Well proportioned with big boobs. I have stood next to her and I am at 6’ 1” and she is damn near as tall as I am. She has been devorced and has two teenage children. Her current boyfriend is maybe 6’ 2”.
I do not think she has any problem getting boyfriends. I have seen her former husband and he is about the same height as me. I doubt if she would be looking for a shorter boyfriend.
True, that is one of the things that will make a lot of women overlook every other shortcoming that would normally be a “deal breaker” for them.
I’m 5’8” and I dated someone that was about 5’7”. I was OK with it. Its a bit awkward with high heels. My husband is only 5’10”.
😆 I knew you would do that.
“I am 5’ 8” and invisible also.”
I’m 5’8”. Most people who see me WISH I was invisible.
And motorcycle oil. This I know from years of experience.
I understand partly because I tended not to date tall guys because I am 5 foot (and a fraction) and I always felt we looked weird. But then I married a six foot guy who used to only date tall girls.
As you grow up you learn not to care what other people think. Then you are ready to get married.
Maybe she will grow up but for right now he may have had a lucky escape.
“How much does she weigh?”

Now that I have THAT out of the way....
Excellent question, you posed!
If a taller woman doesn’t want to date a shorter man it implies she is not totally comfortable in her OWN body.
And if she’s not going to date someone simply because he’s shorter, then it’s likely if another shortcoming arises (no, not sexually: medically!), she’s also likely to cut and run instead of staying in the relationship.
In my high school days (younger, prettier, great figure, etc...) I dated a guy who was shorter than I was and had no qualms.
He was great. A very nice young man. Too bad his mother hated my guts because my dad was Enlisted and his date was an Officer. Sigh.
That woman did everything except put a hit out on me.
But don’t dare say you won’t date fat chicks...
I dated taller girls, love the long legs. There was this brunette, she had legs for days but did not score high enough on the Mendoza line to last.
Who cares?
I’m 5’10”. Bigger than she. She’s just a normal tall.
