Does height matter?

For women: Does a man's height matter to you? Would you date someone smaller than you are? For men: Do you think it is rude for a woman to turn you down just because you stand smaller in height? Speaking for myself, I do not have anything against not so tall guys, and I do not have anything against women who dates guys that are smaller than they are. But then, I have a preference for myself, and I don't see myself with someone smaller than me. Do you think that it is rude to turn a guy down because I am taller than him?

I don't think a man's height matters to me. I am interested in his personality. I have had boyfriends of about my height and a bit taller than me. If I really liked a man and he was shorter than me I would still go out with him. Sometimes good things come in small packages. A person doesn't choose their height but some can control their weight. Hair colour can be dyed and even eye colour can change with the use of special contact lenses. A 5ft 2ins man may feel very upset that he is this size, whilst his best friend of 5ft 11ins is content with this height. Both men might be really lovely and it would be sad if the shorter man is not dated just because the women range from 5ft 6ins to 5ft 9ins and think they would rather be seen with a taller man.

When I was younger I was seeing a guy shorter than me, the height made me feel uncomfortable but it didn't make me less attracted to him... I like the feeling of a men my hight or taller, it's more of a protector thing....

To be honest with you as im a women in generaly i do care about men are shorter then women.I don't mean to offend anybody as i'm just being honest .But if i was attracted by his great personality i may change my mind and accept him regardless his height.In short,good personality is very important.
