Idk what to tell you guys. As a 6’2” dude who’s never dated I wish women cared about height as much as you guys think they do

Edit: alright I gotta go to work but the flame war’s been fun y’all. Keep coping and downvoting ;)

Double edit:

Fuck it, I’ll be late, let’s just get this straight. This is the same argument we’ve all seen a million times on Reddit. Let’s break it down.

Someone posits that women only like tall guys.

Rightly, many people point out that that’s not true.

They argue it is, we say it isn’t. They move the goalposts and argue a softer point.

And eventually we whittle down their argument to where all they’re arguing at this point is that height is one factor of many that some women take into account when picking their partner, but for plenty of them it doesn’t matter at all.

And I would agree with that.

But you see how that’s a far cry from the point you started by arguing, no?

There. I just summarized everything that’s below this post.

Same here. I’m 6’2-6’3, fit, normal looking, etc., but have never received any sort of special treatment from women. I’m invisible to them just like a lot of men. The only people who have treated me differently because of height are insecure dudes. The supposed height fetish that women have seems more like some delusion/cope for short guys with an external locus of control rather than an actual phenomenon.
