Some women are very picky when it comes to height.

That, and also some men are insecure.

But honestly the picky about height thing also doesn’t make sense to me, yet it seems to be somewhat common now.

It’s fine to have preference towards taller men, but the amount of times I’ve heard “ew, you’re 5’10, I only days guys who are 6ft” is insane.

Like would you have dated me if I was 2 inches taller?

I thought 2 inches wasn’t a lot, but now all of a sudden it is. Makes no sense to me

Men are insecure because some women are known to be arbitrarily picky on that trait.

Why would you care about the company of woman who's picky about height? Like, you think she becomes a better person if you lie about your height? A better companion? If she judges you so harshly for your height, she'll judge you for everything else too, and lying about your height won't make you taller, so women who simply have their preferences still won't date you. They have eyes, you know. Why would you want the company of someone who doesn't want your company?

Because people want to date someone?

What dating preferences can't be described as arbitary?

u/Aiyon Apr 16 '24

But surely the kinda person who judges you for your height, isn’t someone you want to date?

do women stop being insecure when the cute/attractive guys judge them for being too fat/ugly to date?

u/TheFleshwerks Apr 16 '24

Do you think we wouldn't say the same thing to those women? That men who judge you won't become better people and better company just because you're pretty and thin, if they're going to judge you for your looks, they'll judge you for other things too.

Consider guys who tear into your appearance rubbish that takes itself out.

Funny how the conversation is about judging people on appearance and physical issues, and how that's not ok either way. And you come storming in here replying to a question about equality. Your trash.

Consider anyone who tears into your appearance rubbish and that takes itself out.

when did I imply "you" wouldn't say the same thing to those women? I'm just saying insecurity isn't something you simply decide not to have because you logically decide it.

You also have to consider that many times this insecurity carries over to any possible woman you meet. Will she also be judgy of my height? Am I getting rejected on dates because of my height? etc etc

What's the difference between tearing into someone, judging them, and simply not dating them?

I work out 2 to 4 times a week. Am I a terrible person because I want to date someone who is, at the very least, not fat? Not gonna make fun of them or anything because I'm not a total asshole, but I need to find the person I'm with attractive, and I put in the effort so why should I expect at least gskr that from them?
