    And how many women do you know with shorter partners? Go out in public and look at all the couples you see, how many have shorter men?

    Everyone says they don’t care, but the bias is 100% there even if they don’t admit it.

      Women are generally shorter than men, so I would expect couples with women shorter than men to be more common even if the pairing was random. There can also be a bias on the men’s side - it is not easy to be a very tall woman.
