Fun Facts About Height!

Being Tall And Leaders

Another thing that makes tall people attractive is that throughout the history, most of the leaders that we have had were tall people as they usually had an upper hand when it came to strength and so were often chose as the leaders.

This is something that even now is quite often seen as taller people are more likely to be listened to, as there is an element of physical dominance, even if they aren’t strong. Another interesting fact to note here is that 60% of American presidents were taller than 5’10, the current national average for men.

One other factor that is often considered is that people with more height often have better social skills, which might have come from being comfortble in themselves.

It has been concluded by many studies that women consider the factor of height more seriously than men, who don’t seem to mind much height.

A recent study found that 13.5 percent of men prefer to date only women shorter than them. But when it comes to women, about half (48.9 percent) preferred to date only men taller than them. Another study that was recently published found that on average 5 feet 9 inches tall.

And the shortest woman a man would like to date is around 5 feet 1 inch tall. Researchers also found in the same study that around 23% of men and 4% of women would accept a relationship where the woman was taller.

A Related Study On The Topic

Another interesting study in which researchers asked a group of people to imagine a woman who was either “short” (4 feet 10 inches), “average” (5 feet 4 inches), or “tall” (5 feet 10 inches). The participants of this experiment had to choose the characteristics of these proposed women. 

Participants ultimately concluded in the average weighted and tall heighted women as more attractive then the short heighted women. And there was utterly no difference between the characteristics of average weighted and tall women. The same was done for men with “short” being (5 feet 4 inches), “average” (5 feet 10 inches) and “tall” (6 feet 4 inches), and the tall heighted and average weighted were the ones preferred but there wasn’t a difference between these two classes’ characteristics

People’s Words On The Subject Matter (Height)

“I just never went for taller girls. Always got nervous. So I wouldn’t know [if tall girls would date me]. I was always upfront to women on dating apps before I went out. Some would stop responding. It is what it is.” – Mark, 5’3”

“I’ve honestly never really thought about it much, which I guess is part of the privilege of my height being normatively attractive. I do find taller women sexy — I’m much more likely to date someone who’s 5’10” than someone who’s 5’2” — but if there was any kind of a genuine connection, I definitely wouldn’t let a few inches of height change my mind.” – Ian, 6’1”

“I dated one guy who was 5’5″. He would not shut up about it. We went on five or six dates. He didn’t kiss me until the last of our dates… then ghosted me. I also dated another guy who was like maybe 5’6″. He didn’t talk about it that much, but clearly needed reassurance. He was good in bed, but I felt like it was partly because he was obsessed with compensating.” – Sarah, 5’6″

“I’ve had guys literally tell me, ‘Oh, I thought you were taller. Sorry, it won’t work,’ the second we meet. My height is on my dating profile.” – Alex, 5’6”

“Making decisions about who you’re dating based on how you physically look next to each other is so dark, so wrong, so misguided. If you want to wear heels, and it will make you taller than your partner and that bothers you, that is a basic ‘you’ problem you need to deal with before you impose it on anybody else.” – Molly, 5’11”

“I love short men. As a short woman, they are so near me.” – Viola, 5’2”

“I think it’s more a failure to own your height, or a perceived insecurity about it that’s more of a turn off than the height itself. If a dude writes 5’4” on their profile, sure, whatever, I’m sure some women are superficial and might swipe away. But the dudes who say ‘5’4,” if that matters to you. Bitches, man,’ are going to strike out, 100 percent.” – Jen, 5’4”

“I’ve only dated taller guys because every time I approach a short dude, it seems like he has more of a problem with it than me. Once, I asked a guy to prom and he said no because he thought it would ‘look weird in photos.’ Like, broaden your mind, dude.” – Faith, 5’6”
