Everything seems to boil down to "nature". I mean I get why women are more drawn to men much larger, heck some women like fat guys for the same reason : Security. I don't get how viewing a man's strength on his height though. I am short but I am strong enough to lift a 200 pound woman with ease.

Women are conditioned to believe they HAVE to be with someone taller. So women who are with men their height, or shorter, have something wrong with them. It is nothing but monkey see monkey do.

It is all of the above. Preference, natural balance, conditioned beliefs... But at the end of the day, real true love is blind to the flesh so sure there has to be some attraction but it isn't top priority when you really love someone.

I agree. If you love someone, preferences go out the door!

This is the ase with skinny/fat relationships. Skinny women don't feel good with fat guys and skinny guys dont feel good with fat women. I say f it and f the people starting this crap. Love who you want. Tall, short, skinny, fat, who cares! If you are happy, you have nothing to prove!

 Yeah I see a lot of this stuff going on. What does it matter? People should be happy and thankful to find someone they connect with. Who cares what others think.

Why are they? Well, most women are shorter than men. The average height is 5'4 and for men it is 5'9. There for, math answers the question. lol

No offense to the OP but this is a joke right? I mean look around you, there has always been a height difference with men and women. Men are on average 5 inches taller than women.

5'9 woman tells 6'1 man she is taller than him. Even the host is baffled.

This is really how many think. I've seen some tell guys they were "taller than them" even though they were clearly several inches shorter with heels on.

Seems like no one had a problem with this except for the female executives. Their issue with this lead them to fire Melora Hardin, the tall woman.
