I find guys a couple inches or more than me attractive.

i will be honest and say i do prefer taller but it doesn't really matter. im not going to not date someone because he's shorter than me.
that would rule out too many babes! lol

Well, since I'm almost 5'10", I do find someone around 5'10"- 6'+ very attractive.
Of course, that's not the most important thing. A shorter guy who has many other special qualities is great too
Unfortunately SOME 'shorter' guys don't care for taller women.

Good question! I've never really thought about all that!
I suppose I generally fancy someone a tad taller than me. I am 5'3" so it usually isn't a problem finding someone taller than me!

As tall or a wee bit taller is good for me, but I'm not going to discriminate against height. That would be shallow.

I'm short (5'5") and The Man is 6'3" at least, but I do find the pocket-sized men very attractive, too!

I'm only 5'1 so finding a guy any height is no prob for me. My friend is average size and her boyfriend chris is the same height. She says she likes it that way cos they see eye to eye.

I like the way you put that, martha
BTW, I'm 5'5" too, I think that's average for a woman

The guy HAS to be taller than me, but i'm average height for a girl, so its never been a problem.
5'9 or over is definitely preferable,though.

I have a wide range of height tastes, but I do have to say that my target range is about two inches shorter than me (my height is 5'7") to about a half-foot taller. I don't like bending down to kiss a guy, and I think it looks funny when a girl comes up to her man's chest. I dunno why, but it seems like a waste of a tall man for all those tall ladies.

as I am quite tall I generally like Men who are taller than me, but I have been out with a guy who was considerably shorter than me and it never bothered me- in all honesty and I know that this sounds so corny, but for me looks and physical apperance are secondary, it really is what is the personality and the sense of humour that are the biggest turn ons for me

no, that doesnt sound corny at all...I agree 100%! I'd rather have a short, sweet guy, with a great personality and sense of humor, than some tall jerk with no personality and looks only

I'm six feet tall and it seems like most guys are shorter than me. I couldn't really see myself being with someone way shorter than me, though I know that's shallow. I just like it if a guy can look me in the eye. He can be shorter than me, but not so that it's majorly noticeable--maybe two or three inches. I really like guys who are about six-two or six-three. As I have mentioned elsewhere in this forum, I am currently somewhat obsessed with the lead singer of Midnight Oil, who is very tall--estimates of his height seem to range from six-four to seven feet (no one seems sure of the truth!)
But hey, it's not like guys of any height seem to be after me. You're all afraid of tall girls, or else something else is wrong with me.

You are sooooo right! But for some interesting reason, not only do short guys prefer short women, but I constantly see these exceptionally tall guys with shorter-than-average women.

I prefer tall. My reasons are a little different though. I am kinda self conscious about my body in general and it would make me have issues with myself. I know that sounds odd.

I prefer guys who are taller than me, but I'm 5'5" so it's not much of a problem. Have you ever noticed how tall (6'+) guys are often with girls considerably shorter than them? I think they should stick with the tall women!

I'm 5 feet, 3 inches, so I like taller men, but not too tall like 6 feet.

I like guys who are taller than me, but that's not that rare since I'm 5'2". In fact, I don't think I've ever met a guy who's shorter than me. I don't really care how much taller they are than me, though. Bono and Kelly Jones (from Stereophonics) are both not much taller than me at all (especially Bono without his tall shoes), and I like both of them.

Generally guys who are taller than me. When you?re a 5?10 woman, that cuts out half the field tho.
I made the mistake of dating a guy who was quite a bit shorter than me and he turned out to be an asshole. Of course, his height may have had nothing to do with it...but I don?t feel like taking any chances. Lol. Taller men from now on!

I am 5'8, which is tall for a girl, but typically most guys are about 5'10 and up. I have historically always liked tall guys, and those were usually the type of guys that caught my eye....
lately however, I am thinking that it would be nice to be with someone my height. Firstly, the eye to eye thing... also, I think that it would be nice to fall asleep with every single part of your body aligned, but for me the most important thing, is how much fun it would be to hug someone the exact same height as me....

I'm 5'7 so most guys are about as tall as I am. It wouldn't be a big problem for me to date someone shorter than me but I do have to say that I probably would be uncomfortable if he was much shorter.
My best guy friend hates going out with me when I wear tall shoes. He's about 5'10 so in some heels I'm as tall as him or taller. He's the one that has the problem with it and were not even dating. I think he's crazy.

I like to nestle just under someones chin- so that's usually about 5'10" or so. However, I do like 'em tall.

i'm exactly like that. i feel really selfconcious, whether i like it or not. i hate being 6', and i when i was with someone shorter than me, i was always slouching. i'm not at all into superficial things, but i can't help my own self esteem. being a tall girl changes so many things, and sometimes for the worst.
guys, just because we're tall doesn't make us scary. we're people too! i guess the thing about tall being attractive is a misconception...
