    Being that tall must be kind of annoying. Just needing to duck every time you walk through a doorway seems like a pain. I’m around 6’ and I have a hard time with legroom in airplanes. Idk what people this tall even do if they can’t afford one of the expensive seats.

    I’m tall and I’ve always preferred shorter women. But I think I’d make an exception in this case.

        I get so excited when I see one. I was bullied a lot and it’s nice not to associate height with negativity, other women living their best life is as positive as it gets

          Yeah I’ve got a complicated relationship with my height and size in general. Like on one hand it amplifies a lot of the crap I deal with being trans, and it’s always so awkward being a head taller than every other woman in a room, and I find myself trying to make myself smaller, but on the other hand I’m barely taller than my mom and some of my old friends from growing up are tall enough they had to be tested for gigantism as kids so I’ve got so many positive associations with height, and my wife really likes my height

        I’m 5’3 and my wife is closer to 5’10. My wife is quite charming and attractive whilst I have a huge personality.

        Awful joke that scarcely carries into text aside, it’s possible to date successfully as a short man. You just have to have things to offer, then find someone who values those things. Having really excellent things, like fantastic conversational skills and personality, well-developed or unique personal interests, or a monster condom that you use for your magnum dong, helps immensely.

        I’m six foot and my husband is 5’9, we’ve been together over 20 years. There’s always a shot, believe you’re a short king and women will believe in you. Confidence > everything else. You’ll find your person.

            You’re lucky if that’s the medium in your country. In my country the average for men is 6 ft exactly. Being 5’10" I’m actually quite short. Which is also reason #128 why I’m not on Tinder anymore lmao, I don’t look super short in real life but when every fifth non-bot Tinder profile says “little boys under 180 cm can swipe left”, you kind of lose motivation when you’re a centimeter or two short of the benchmark.

          Hah, I hung out with a group of friends who were friends with a couple girls on the volleyball team in college, and one girl was 6’5!! Dude, she was so attractive, fit, and had a good personality + sense of humor. I can only imagine a lot of guys struggled to muster up the courage to talk to her.

          Nice! I’m 6’ myself, and a girl caught me by surprise one time after we meet up early on in the Tinder days (when it was more innocent). Anyway, she was 6’ AND had 2-3" heels on too! It’s not often a girl is taller than me, but it was so attractive, she was so shy or self conscious about it. I reassured her I knew she said she was tall and had nothing to worry about!

          Dinner was great, she was great, but she didn’t like being taller than me (that night at least). Nothing more came of it, but I could tell she was slightly uncomfortable about the whole thing, and I paid her honest compliments to try to put her at ease.

          Last we talked, she dated a guy 6’4. Oh well, hope she’s doing alright these days.

            Long before Tinder I matched / went on a date with a heavier woman who had obvious issues with her size. Not sure what she was trying to do, but apparently f a t was her trigger word, she instantly dissolved in a pool of irreconcilable tears. I made it clear I had no problem with the size, found her attractive as she was - even before saying the trigger word, but the fragility and deep lack of self esteem was more than I could handle.

              Yeah I feel like you need to be confident in yourself before you start dating. You can’t make your happiness dependent on someone else. It’s not fair on them and it’s dangerous for you.

      Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masterbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

        If you were on the train, you technically weren’t at work (unless you were to conductor or it was a business travel or something). So I fear the tag wouldn’t have prevented your unfortunate experience.

          In my country if you’re commuting to work or from work and you have an accident it’s considered a work accident. I don’t know if this perspective helps to consider the image NSFW, but I guess it’s something…

            No that just means you have a problem now: before opening it, you are on your way to work. So not at work yet. After opening it and having the situation escalate, it could be a work accident, since you were on the way to work. But since the cause was opening NSFW content, your claims would be denied. So actually it’s better if it isn’t marked NSFW; then it’s still an accident on the way to work.
