We acted in a commercial together. I'm a piano teacher but I do act in independent films and musical theatre as well.

Well now you have to share the commercial. WE need to see this.

It‘s only 6 feet because it is a clean round number. 180 cm is the 6 feet of the metric system. So when you are 5‘10 or 5‘11 come to europe.

…people are idiots

I am 180.But 176 is standard European height i hear

“Actress friend” must be code for pornstar. What’s her name, I’ll look up her work, for research purposes of course.

Come on, it's clearly Sydney Sweeney...right???

Sweeney doesn't have an enormous bust and Edmund was putting major emphasis on the bust. Could be some pornstar who works in commercials and camgirls on the weekend.

What?

AlteredForms I don't want to talk about Sweeny's endowments but I thought she was blessed.

The Lunch Legend Opinions on Sweeny. Is she endowed enough for you?

Almost 60% of women on Bumble were willing to consider a man who was 6 feet tall.

That number dropped to almost 30% for men 1 inch below the 6 foot threshold, and below 15% for men 5’8” and shorter.

On the opposite end, men who were 6’5” met the height requirement of nearly 90% of women.


I’m taller than 6’5” but can only attain 90% of women. What are that other 10% looking for?

I'm 6'5", who wants to touch me? 90% of the girls here, I imagine...

 

[Paltheos]

Quality of the sample, etc. but this is kind of disappointing for a friend of mine. He's 5'... 5"? 4"? Short dude I've got a full head on. He's one of the smartest, funniest, reliable, attractive people I know and he has next to no self-confidence. He thinks women won't look in his direction because of his height. When he was single, more than one relative outsider to our group had remarked she was surprised he's single. Maybe it is the sample selected (wishful thinking).

 

[Rentahamster]

I feel being tall also comes with the expectation you must have a big dick. It must feel like shit to be tall and have a small dick though, in that case your height even makes your small dick even more noticeable, yikes

It's the man equivalent of fat girl small tits.

As a hamster, I'm only 25cm, so my cock looks friggin huge.

 

[Rentahamster]

I dated her for a bit but she was quite mentally unstable lol. She told me about some dark urge to kill people and I noped out. What a waste though. Pretty and really big tits.

Maybe it was just in Minecraft. Ask her husbando!

 

[ÆMNE22A!C]

Height in general is also inherent to legs > torso proportions.

Skip to 6:30 for visual examples. Fwiw.

 

[Edmund]

Nah she had real issues. Got abused by her ex and she went into depression. I can't date a girl with baggage so I noped out. I kinda regret now cuz she's snapped out of it and she's really pretty. Lol.

im 6'3" while yes the ladies like but plane rides and roller coaster seats or a challenge.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

On the plus side to be bang on average height it's easier to give the ladies a good old standing motorboat.

That image has always made me laugh lol. How she puts her arms up in surprise, she clearly liked it

I am sad that this trend was less prevalent in the 90's when I was a 6'7 20-something and dating apps didn't exist yet.

Used to be 5’9” - but I am shrinking. I think I am little over 5’8” now. I will be 50 in a couple of months, and will probably be 5’7” by the time I reach 70-80s. Well, it is what it is. At least I still look mid 30s to early 40s, thanks to my youthful asian gene….

 

[Fenix34]

As someone recently divorced (bit over a year), who is legit 5'9, I check just about every other box I have been taught women are looking for in my age range (30 - 45). Online has been awful.

When I was younger (and far less accomplished), I had zero issue meeting women out and about, from friends, etc. But now, at 43, with few of my friends being out much, online is my vector...and it's just depressing, off-putting, and completely counter-productive IMO. I guess 5'9 fucks me and there is nothing I can do about it.

What is really depressing is, if I set a filter for college/grad degree, fit (skip curvy, it's a trap), and having a job somewhere decent...my matches drop to an abysmal low number of women. Don't even get me started at the absolute disgust I am pummeled with as I flip through (and actually read) peoples profiles.

These threads just make me smile (being a 6ft guy and already married to an awesome woman) just makes me feel like I won the lottery. Carry on.

Ever wonder why these apps have a height filter/field, but not a weight one?

Especially when you can actually do something about your weight most of the time but not your height. It's pretty weird.

 

[Herr Edgy]

I read a few months ago that the most desirable man is over 6 feet, under the age of 45, and makes $100k a year. Less than 1% of all men simultaneously meet all three criteria.
I’m wondering what the percentage of men over 6 foot is in relation to this 60% number.

I match 2 of these; but I am 5'11. I'm not bad looking either (should lose some weight and get more in shape, WIP. Software Engineer working from home)
Realistically speaking I'd say I'm a good catch, even if I'm not on 'instagram' levels of a fantasy.

Low success in dating in general, partly due to my lifestyle. I don't go out much, so I don't often meet new women. My photos on dating apps aren't showing my best sides as I frankly don't know how to; I'm not wealthy enough to openly flex on photos with a nice car or similar as I'm saving up to buy an apartment or house, my hobbies aren't something you can easily take pictures of and I find it hard to take good pictures of myself.

I'm working on losing weight currently, have started buying nicer clothes, and above all I'm trying to change my mentality as the lack of success influences me to put too much value onto a woman's attention, which is a natural turnoff.
Currently taking Salsa & Bachata classes with a Romanian girl, which might or might not lead to something, so I'm practicing just chilling in the moment with her. And if not, I'm still being physically active, learning a skill, socializing more. It's a win/win in my book.

As for Bumble, I got banned permanently because they didn't like me putting on a loop of me doing this into my profile (with the V/peace sign).
Despite that getting me a match. Also Romanian, coincidentally.

 

[BlackTron]

I've had (not bragging just saying) heard I have a perfect/awesome/delicious dick from many woman and yes, I still think it's to "small." Maybe because I'm an extreme grower? And certainly insecurity in general I reckon.

We should start using our combined body height + dick height on profiles, I would be over 1000 inches tall

[Elginer]

As someone that is 5'6 I lost that genetic lottery. All my cousins though are 5'10 and up. So, I guess its hookers for me in this current era

 

[Elginer]

One of my hot actress friend with big tits got to know her husband on tinder. Her husband looks like shit but he's some finance guy who rakes in big bucks. Before this guy, she was dating lawyers and other guys in the finance industry all through dating apps.

I dated her for a bit but she was quite mentally unstable lol. She told me about some dark urge to kill people and I noped out. What a waste though. Pretty and really big tits.

At least ya hit and thats what counts.

 

[DosGamer]

Wife and I had this conversation just last night. She was saying that she has never been physically attracted to a man that is shorter than her. She asked me about women, and I told her that I never really thought about it. I dont think a couple inches matter, but I couldnt see myself with a woman that is like 6 foot 5, or one that is barely over 5 feet.

Having said that, it is a personal choice for each person. I do find it odd that some women are sticklers for that yet they hide behind filters that make them look like they were photoshopped.

 

[AJUMP23]

Cute

 

[j0hnnix]

NeoGaf should all stand together in support of AJUMP23's choice to want no short man.

[DeafTourette]

I'm not tall but I've been with women my height or shorter... at least one taller than me.

Just be yourselves or work on being the best version of yourselves. Women want authenticity. Yeah for a lot of women height equals someone who can protect them. But for just as many, you being strong of character and willing to put the pimp hand to the Lord himself if a motherfucker tries her. Make her feel comfortable, loved and seen. That's all any woman wants.

 

[Fenix34]

176-181 are normal height?
As for me it's normal.

 

[Raonak]

I wouldn't really take these dating app polls to heart. Its like making a poll for men asking ideal breast size.

Your ideal of anything has little to do with who you actually end up forming a connection with.

 

[Dis]

Women are looking for guys well above the average. Tall guys who are ripped as fuck and earn six figures, and need to have DICK. No pee pee allowed, only 12 inch cylinder of flesh. In reality, those guys are a tiny minority. Men however are not allowed to have such demands

It's like me saying I'll never get with a woman who's above a size 10. Also no flat chests and needs to have ass. I'm not into ironing boards and long back chicks.

What's that? I'm body shaming and being misogynistic? Ah, but it's okay if women do it.

Having to put 5’4” in the height box of dating apps almost feels like asking for pity swipes,
