I hate my height so much. I’m 5’9 female and it’s a lot harder to date when you're a tall woman as being tall is seen as being less “feminine”. Tired of being met with the shocked faces of dates or even colleagues. Can’t wear heels. Wish I could get 5 inches out of my spine of something.

I’m 6’3 and love tall women

6’3 and second this motion

As someone who’s 6’5, I only date women who are above 5’8. Trying to have future olympians over here

Love it!

I’m so jealous of you. It sucks having everyone look down on you, literally.

I like short guys. The tall ones should be saved for tall women. I am 5’3 and once dated a guy that was 6’4 - it was very wrong.

likefunny

Bless you.

5'8" woman here. 1st phone conversation with a guy I matched with online and he said how tall are you again? I told him my height and that it's on my profile, he said ok 5'8" is the max height for a woman before she's too masculine. Needless to say we never spoke again

Wow. Now I have never met a man real enough to admit it, but as a 5’8 woman that has gotten all of these dusty men harassing me for my shoe choices, I have seen it in my life time and time again.

Lady what?! As a 5'8 woman I'm always grateful for my height. And I wear 3-4 inch heels. Sex appeal doesn't have a height limit or minimum.

6’1” here (technically 6 and a half, I round up). I also can’t relate. Die mad about whatever heels I am wearing. Not interested in LDE spooning or little man mentality comments.

OP (if you want kids) think about the tall daughter you will give a complex to with this attitude. My 5’8” mom is a queen and she raised me to be proud. My 6’7” father wiped my tears when high school bullies made my life hell and told me one day I’d laugh at people like them. He was right.

5’8 female - that’s what really frustrates me when I see 6’ or taller guys with tiny women - I don’t mind a 5’10-5’11 guy but it would be nice to feel like I am being hugged by a taller bear

Same, girl. When I was dating, I called this "poaching"! It always reminded me of that scene in SATC when Carrie's older boss from Vogue asks her, "Why are you swimming in my pool?" when Carrie was dating the Russian. (BTW I'm 6' female and married a guy who is about 1/4" taller, which has worked out just fine.)

I love being an Amazon woman and towering over men 😍 I’m happy to be the tallest in the room in heels.

likeuplifting

Same. I'm "only" 5'7", but in heels I'm 5'11", and with my hair, 6'. I also have a solid frame, and ultimately, it's a great natural defense mechanism - my more petite friends have to deal with WAY more predatory behavior from men. In all of the overtures I've deflected, I've never had a man physically try to lead or carry me off and I've never been in a situation where I was worried that a man would or could (easily) overpower me, but this is a common story from my smaller girlfriends.

6’ lady here. I wear heels 75-100mm all of the time. Own it. It’s a gift. Don’t let jealous goblins steal your joy!

likeupliftinghelpful

I had a man complain about my heels. Let them know the shoes had been around longer than them and were going to be around longer than them. Broke up soon after because no on has time doe that level of insecurity.

likeuplifting

I'm a woman and 6 foot even. I had tons of guys that were my height or shorter interested. My husband is 6'5", so I'm lucky that I can still wear heels and look proportional. One of his favorite quotes, "I'd climb her like a tree 🤩"

likeupliftingfunny

5’8” and don’t care about your height. Would love to see you rock heels, feel confident and sexy while next to me. I’ve dated taller than you. I don’t know how to help you and I know you’re not asking for it. But just know that you’re great the way you are. It’s easier said than done but don’t give a shit about what others think! You’re you! Don’t be upset about something you cannot control. Just keep kicking ass and forget about everyone else! 😉

When I dated, I only dated women taller than 5’9” because I didn't want short kids.

I’m a 6’2” male and honestly curious, is 5’9” freakishly tall for women? I don’t think so. I have some friends that are 5’8” or 5’9” and we make fun of them for being short so I think you’re OK 👍

likefunny

5’9” is not far from top 1% for women

Please wear your heels and feel comfortable in your skin. I am 5’8, and I used to want someone over 6 ft. My SO is 5’9 lol and the sweetest and most perfect man for me, I would have overlooked him if I kept that mentality that I needed a tall man. Tall does not equal amazing. I wear heels all the time and he loves it - and I have no care about our heights at this point in our marriage. Don’t get so caught up in those things that you miss out on something good.
