Guys: Will you marry a girl taller than you? email this discussion to a friend?

It is a non written rule that all men want to marry women who are a little shorter than them. People make fun of those who make this unwritten rule. I think this idea came out of the dominating nature of men. I believe love is the most important factor and not height. What is your opinion about this?

it is not necessary that i wouldn't marry any girl taller than me, if she is that special one, her height wouldn't be a concern to me.
:)

That is a good approach. Yes, love is more important than physical appearance and especially hieght. Thanks for the response.

That looks a little bit awkward. But height doesn't matter to people who are in love.


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

Yes, we think it looks a kind of awkward because we have been used to husbands a little taller than wives and wives a little shorter than husband. You think the same was as mine, yes, love is the major factor to be concerned when it comes to marriage. Thanks for the response.

We're definitely speaking in generalizations here, but I always thought it was more that women preferred to marry guys taller than them than that men wanted to marry women who were shorter than them. Maybe it's different in India, but in the US I would say short guys are normally pretty proud if they can marry a taller girl. I suppose some men wouldn't want to look small standing next to their wives, especially if a man average height is considering marrying an unusually tall girl, but many wouldn't care at all.

I read in a survey that the one quality women hate most in men is SHORTNESS!! Women always tell you that looks do not matter but watching I see that women do not always tell the truth about this.They go for looks. As for myself, I go for the chemistry. Height is not an issue but I have found, unlike those who want dumb women,my women must have brains.


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

You made me laugh saying your women must have brains! Yes, brain is important than any physical appearance. What about money and education? They are also important. But, I have seen this height matter dominates money, brain, and education many times. In India, many guys will reject a women taller than him even if she is edcated or rich. Being taller than his wife is a prestige matter of a man.

I agree, that behind every successful man there is a women. But is it fair for men to look up(wards) at her for inspiration all the time? haha. I would rather marry someone my own height so that we see eye to eye whether in fight or love


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

That is an intersting view - marrying somebody of the same hieght. My husband and I are of the same hieght or he might be half a centimeter taller than me. So, I think as you said we can see eye to eye in fight or love. Lol. lolThanks for the responding to the discussion.


myLot reputation of 86/100. preethaanju (511)   ranked 5,676 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

with same height ru fighting more or loving?


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

Lol. lol Are you curious to know that? Yes, we are loving a lot more than with same hieght. He is very understanding and open. He never has issues with me. I am the person who come up with problems, but he is clever enought to manage it and we come out of all those issues.

As you said it is an unwritten rule that dominates boys looking foe short girls.I will complain girls more on this.They don't like to turn towards guys shorter than them.They say something like secured feeling and blah blah...But it is an accepted fact,in our country India,to be keen on the heights in arranged marriages more.Tall girls suffer much to get taller guys in the marriage market.Cheers!


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

Yes, you are right. I have a cousin sister who is very tall. Her family suffered a lot to find a boy of the exact hieght as her. They compramised on various factors such as education, wealth, and job to get this guy. I don't understand why people focusing more on how tall the guy is more than how much money he makes or how well educated he is. It is interesting, but happening all the time. Thanks for respondign to this discussion.

In my views, if you get a nice understanding partner. Then forget the height. And enjoy the life. Think for a moment. IF you get nice height partner but not with a nice heart/nature. How will be your life? Dammmmmmmmmmm HElllllllllll.


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

Yes, you are right. I am sure nobody will prefer hell for the matter of hieght. Yes, love and undestanding is very important. But, I wonder why people give the importance to hieght as they consider love and understanding. Thanks for the response.


myLot reputation of 38/100. anandjk (243)   ranked 37,467 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

One thing I would like to add, height matters for only short term relationship keeper and for those who are very horny fellows.

If you truely love a girl, i think i will not care about the taller of the girl. The fate is more important than anything.


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

I am sorry, what do you mean by 'fate'? We can't understand how the fate will be by just seeing that girl. Fate has nothing to do with hieght. A taller girl might have good fate. Do you mean we should give importance to other things than hieght such as love, education, character, etc?

9. myLot reputation of 94/100. flyisky (143)   ranked 10,693 out of 38,036 in life   6 months ago

Well,for me, I do agree the non-written rule and never marry a girl taller than you. Maybe what I think and do is always conservative and traditional. A taller girl standing in front of me can make me feel uncomfortable and awkward. I cannot accept the fact that she must bent in order to kiss me. O(n_n)O


myLot reputation of 97/100. daliaj (2748)   ranked 417 out of 38,036 in life  6 months ago

Oh, you are the only person who said the interesting fact - you must bent the girl to kiss her. Lol. lol. Yes, we have followed the unwritten rule over decades and it is not easy to delete it from our mids. Moreover it is a tradtion. Thanks for the response.
