I like short men
post #1

I've dated men from as small as 5'3 all the way to 6'5. Height is a turn on, but SO IS short and stocky. I will get turned on more by a man who has an attractive or average face with a built body and short than I would be a tall and scrawny man. My current boyfriend is 5'4 and I met him on a dating site. I have ex boyfriends who are 5'3-5'6. 

I do notice that taller men ask me out more and I have to actually pursue shorter guys when I find them attractive. So no worries. Keep looking and get a thick skin.

When you say that you like short guys, do you mean shorter than you? Otherwise your post is invalid.

Plenty of women like guys from the same height and above.

 

I believe it when you say that taller men ask you out more frequently. And i simply think its about confidence and not being insecure.

As we all know, shorter guys tend to be more insecure when it comes to women due to the cruel rejections and the surrounding enviornment bulling us on every social platform.

You guys need to chill out a bit. That type of attitude will turn women who actually "like", "tolerate", "loves", "fetishes", etc away from shorter guys.

exactly, it is like a guy saying "I like heavy women",  maybe a guy is able to stand being in a relationship with a heavy women but he is always going to be looking at that fit girl and wishes he was with her, like a girl is maybe able to "tolerate" being in a relationship with a short guy, but she is always going to be embaressed with him and really want to get out of the relationship

To be fair, there are actually guys who prefer bigger women.

I also "know" a girl who prefer short skinny guys.

I have posted on this topic before, months ago. I guess it would be good to reiterate.  My wife of 32 years genuinely likes that I am short.  She finds large men very intimidating and cannot stand being around them at all, even if they are kind and gentle.  Her Dad was not tall either.  I'm 5'4"-- her Dad was more like 5'6 or 7.  It helps that I have a V-shaped build: small waist and big chest.  She finds me very sexy and attractive.  Guys-- it is unusual, but not unheard-of.  We were made for each other.  God brought us together.  She likes my funny, witty, insightful personality, and that I'm a college VP and a professor and a church leader.  And I make her laugh - a lot.  She knows the height issue bothers me a lot, though I have refused to bring it up in years.  So, she is kind and sensitive and has never said anything disparaging about my height.  She never would.  She truly sought me out because she did not want to spend her life in fear of some huge lout.  Look for such women.  They are rare, but they do exist.

The hostility is understood but I agree with @ThatFlyShortGuy. If a woman is telling you she likes short men and claims to date them frequently, then what's the problem? Take it at face value and extend your gratitude. We already know that a lot of women don't even like to date men that are their height. If a 5'3 woman does not date men 5'2 and below, but does date men who are 5'3 (who are considered very short by societal standards), it's still a win for us.

I think farming credits for saying that you like short men is unnecessary.

In my head she gets no upvote for saying that she likes guys that are her height or above, even if they are in the category of short.

If she said that she did not care about height at all. And that men who's actually shorter than her holds equal value .. thats a different story.

 

It might not be majority. But a large portion can settle with someone whos equal in height.

Everyone has a preference, even you. I love short men and most women that I know would never look twice at a man under 5'10.  So I don't date men under 5'3 so what? I like to be at least eye level when kissing and that's why I have that preference and am okay with 5'3 men. I know women taller than me that won't even look at a man their own height let alone someone who is "short".

Do you see how quickly she was able to walk her back from her stated preference?

This is the battle with dating some of those who claim to be okay with shorter guys,

Leather Jacket Guide For Shorter Men

Leather Jacket Guide For Shorter Men

Oh man, do I remember my first leather jacket—the sleekness, the subtle gloss, the way it made me feel instantly cool. Now in middle age, I can trace that feeling back to growing up on re-runs of Happy Days, watching the Fonz, seeing Run-DMC rock their leather track jackets, and watching Michael Jackson command the screen in his punk-inspired Bad era. Later came the bomber, lettered, and logo-heavy jackets of the early ’90s worn by artists like Nas. By the time the glossy leather trend of the late ’90s and early 2000s rolled around, it all came full circle (remember the Shaft remake?). So when I finally bought my first leather peacoat in the early 2000s, I felt like a celebrity stepping out onto the streets of NYC—you couldn’t tell me a thing (especially when I flipped that collar up!). Even as that coat started to show a little wear, strangers still had plenty of compliments to give.

Every man needs a leather jacket in his wardrobe. If you’re style-conscious—especially if you’re a shorter man—you might even consider owning a few. Few pieces signal effortless cool and attention to detail quite like leather. In this guide, we’ll touch on a bit of history, break down the key types of leather jackets, and show you how to pair them with outfits that elevate your overall look. Just in time for the unpredictable early-spring weather, consider this your go-to leather jacket guide for shorter men


History

 

When it was time to buy my first leather jacket, a guy at work pointed me to “Schott” —and for good reason. Co-founder Irving Schott is credited with creating one of the first modern zippered leather motorcycle jackets in 1928. The brand still carries his name today.

Leather jackets, though, go back earlier. During World War I, pilots wore heavy leather coats—often horsehide or steerhide—because their cockpits were open and freezing. These evolved into standardized flight jackets like the A-2 in the 1930s, later nicknamed “bomber jackets,” especially during World War II.

By the 1950s, leather jackets had become a cultural symbol. Actors like Marlon Brando in The Wild One and James Deanin Rebel Without a Cause helped turn them into shorthand for rebellion and cool.

In the 1970s, long, glossy leather coats became staples of Blaxploitation films, while musicians—from The Beatles to The Jackson 5—embraced leather as part of their look.

From military necessity to style icon, the leather jacket has never really left the spotlight.

Award winning female climate scientist thinks shorter men are dumb

She\'s framing it this way to make it look like she\'s making some kind of educated point, but the reality is, she most likely really does think this.
