OK I personally think that guys who are attracted to girls that are taller than them are how do I say this... not gay but they have a soft side. You can say they are 20% gay & 80% heterosexuals. No girl will ever dream of one day meeting a guy who is shorter than her, & the girl will always end up dumping him at the end. The only reason she was attracted to him & gave the relationship a chance was because girls are nice to gay guys & they are usually nice guys & talk a lot & open up about their feelings & this attracts the female to them but at the end she realizes there is something missing, she doesn't see him as a man, as someone she can count on to protect her because she sees him shorter than her & feels like she is the one protecting him, like she is the one playing the role of a man. And guys who are attracted to girls taller than them is because they have this insecurity in their life, they want to be cared for, they have this empty space inside & feel they want attention & caring just like girls do that's why I'm saying they have this feminine side. Relationships where a guy is shorter than the girl always fail at the end just like Nicole Kidman & Tom Cruise, a man is a hunter, a man is a warrior, a man is someone the girl needs to count on to feel safe, when she cries she throws herself in his arm & cry, when she does that she will feel better but if he is shorter she wouldn't get that same feeling. There is nothing wrong with being short but if you are then just find a short girl either same height as u or shorter. anyways that's my opinion, what does everyone else think?

I think you're reading into it a little too much and making an awful lot of generalizations, but anyway... I am a fairly tall girl. About 5'8". I think that is the statistical average height for men in my country. So sometimes I will be approached by shorter men, just since there are so many shorter men out there. Personally, I think it's overall size that matters more than height. For example, I'd rather date a broad-shouldered, muscular guy who's a little shorter than date a guy is tall but really scrawny. But ideally I would like to have the best of both! haha. But I'm sure it's the same for guys. I bet most guys would rather date a girl who is taller but has a great body and a pretty face than date a girl who is shorter but very plain and average. Especially if the height difference isn't really that much. So basically I think it's sort of on an individual basis. Generally speaking I would rather date men who are taller than me, but it's not the only factor I care about, and it's not a deal-breaker if they are shorter.

I think it is cool when guys date a girl taller than them. Respect to both the girl and the guy. Maybe they can make it work? Respect.. But as a girl who is kind of tall, though I would never be comfortable with a guy smaller than me. I now I am superficial, but that is the way it is. I want good personality and tall guy! :D
