All the men mentioned above are multi-millionares. Do the math...$$$ = who cares about height!

I'm 5'7" and short. I don't mind that makes almost all women a nearly perfect fit for me... since in bed height never matters.

I'm 6'-5" and my wife thinks I'm the coolest! I can lift virtually any household object and reach nearly every shelf.

Size DOES matter....

When I explain to women that my mouth is at nipple level when we are both standing, it usually seals the deal for me.

I agree. Of course some women are so used to dating shorties that when it comes to us above average fellas they take a step back.

But when it comes to perfect husbands, shorter men stand head and shoulders above the rest, a study has found.

As a member of the short guy crowd (all 5'4" of me), my wife will thoroughly attest, and will verify, that the above statement is completely false...

They all sound like a bunch of metric-sexuals to me.
There's not a decent sized six-foot male among 'em.

It doesn't? I've dated women from 4'9" to 6'4"...there some interesting mechanical variables in that range

Perfect for what, dare I ask?
Feel free not to elaborate.
