Gentlemen would you date a woman taller than you? Ladies would you date a man shorter than you? Here's the confessions of a short man in love http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/24013652/?GT1=43001

I like men who are taller than me! That's not hard, since I'm 5'4", but right now, for example, I'm seeing someone who's a foot taller than me. It works out, somehow. An ex was 6'5" and he often commented how nice it was to be with someone "so small" (haha).

What I find interesting is that tall men often don't like tall women. There's something about feeling emasculated, perhaps?

Answering honestly, I don't think that I would, but I have never had a short man aske me to go out on date either.

 ha! hell, i have dated a woman taller than me. When i was in the marines, i dated a woman that was about 5'9" or slightly less. Im at a bout 5'7" myself. nope, im not a tall guy.  (damn coffee. lol) It wasnt a big deal... she didnt seem to care- and i didnt care. no big. if she wore heels, id just wear boots. 


Long as she's not towering over me by a foot or somethign- hasnt bothered me yet.

One of the first things that attracts me to a man is his height. I don't think I could date someone shorter than me, hell I'm only 5'1.  That would be a cute site a woman 5'1 with a man that stands no taller than 5'. LOL   No, I don't think I could date a man shorter than me but I guess I don't have to worry about that because I'm already in a relationship with a wonderful man... a tall one at that.

 I go for intelligence so height has no value to me, really. If he can engage me in a lovely debate, conversation, teach me a few things, and actually listen as well, I'm pretty much swept off my feet!

I'm with KatS on this one.  I am also only 5'1" and have never had to even wonder about this.  I did date someone who was only 5'3", I do prefer a little taller.  I think someone taller makes me feel more secure, more protected.

I am pretty tall, and have always been taller than alot of my peers, so I guess I got sorta used to some men being shorter than me. I didn't date short guys in my teens/early twenties, but I also never met a short guy during that time who's personality peaked my interest. My husband is alot shorter than me. I'm almost 5' 9" and he's like a head shorter than me lol. We were friends first and the relationship slowly grew from there. At first it sorta bugged me, but I'm used to it now and I didn't fall in love with his height!!!! He knows everything about me and me of him and we love eachother unconditionally. The only thing that bugs me is people who stare and make a big deal out of it. When we were dating, ppl would say...but he's SO short!

I'm pretty average size for a woman (5' 6") so I've only had taller boyfriends. I have to be honest and say, no I wouldn't like it. I am one of those women who prefer to have a big strapping man hold me or take me in his arms. I can't see it the other way around...sorry no way!

Yeah, I need a big teddy bear type of guy.  I am 5'3" and had a 2 year relationship with a guy who was 5'1" and smaller than me to the point where he wore smaller clothes than I did.  He worked out every day and was in great physical condition, but the two problems that ended it were that:  1) He was a 30-something bachelor and very set in his ways (I did not see this changing at all), and 2) I could not get over his size, especially in bed.  They say everything evens out when you're horizontal, but I'm here to tell you that sometimes it just doesn't even out no matter how creative you get.  I just could not commit to a lifetime of marriage and monogamy with this guy.  I felt bad, but I did not want to be unhappy or unfaithful to him either.  So I faced my own reality and got out before things went any further.

I'm 5'1...I surely hope my man wouldn't be shorter than me.
