Are you OK with your wife or girlfriend taller than you?

Celebrities like Salman Rushdie and Sachin Tendulkar may be OK with their wife taller than him but for common people it may not be. I just read a newspaper about this, according to their survey, man's ego hurt if they have their wife of girlfriend taller than him, so they prefer girls smaller than him. Is your ego will hurt if you have taller girlfriend?

As a boy,I don't mind my girlfriend or my wife taller than me,because I am not bery tall so if I want my offspring more taller than me then I need to pick up a taller girl as my wife. But actually the height doesn't matter too much if I love my wife very much,no matter she is smaller or taller than me.

I guess the issue of height depends on a person's confidence level. I don't think a successful business man, a bankable celebrity, or a science genius will not have much of an issue here. However, for a common man, it would be a different case. This situation is comparable with regard to salary. A man's ego is definitely hurt if his wife earns more than he does.

Talking of salary, man's ego hurts if his wife earns more than he does. But this only happens if woman starts taking pride of place in nearly every sphere of their life. Happy New Year to you.

i am not sure about the ego being hurt, what i know is that i love women who are taller than me. for me, women who are taller look sexy and confident. i am more attracted to women who have long legs and walk with confidence and authority. my wife is a bit taller than me, and i am in no way insecure of my height because of her. i am even prouder that my wife is taller than me.

If men are confident, than height issues can be easily buried. And yes, taller women with good gait look even more stunning and sexy. Happy new year to you.

What's their in the height of husband and wife. What is more important is their love towards each other plus understanding and confidence on each other. My husband is taller then me, but I not that short just some 7 inches short. But do you know I feel proud walking next to tall men (my Husband)

I don't see any reason why men would feel inferior about it. What if for example, she fell in love with a wonderful woman and that woman has expressed her great love for him, should he turn his back away from her? I don't think that is man enough.

Yes it is okay, It is a stereotype when the boy is taller than the girl. If you really like the girl, It shouldn't matter. Happy mylotting!

I don't think i really care whether my wife is shorter or taller than me. I will be happy as long as we both understand each other and get along well. I think that is what matters and not the physical appearance.

It doesn't bother me. I have dated women from 4 foot 11 inches to 5 foot 10 inches and I'm a little over 5 foot 8 inches. I once spent a very nice night when I was in the Army and went out to club and close danced most of the night with girl who was probably at least 6 foo 1 inch; she just put her head down on my shoulder and both us were fine with the height difference. I do tend to like petite women but not because women taller than me bother me or my ego.
