"Women dont like guys who are below 6 foot"

HelenHavok · 2023-06-03T04:43:12+00:00

The two short guys I know well (5’3 and 5’4) are very happily married to extremely attractive women and have kids. One guy’s wife is about his height, but the other is like 5’8” and a stunner. His complete confidence about it is definitely notable. He knows what he wants and doesn’t give two shits about other people’s perceptions because he knows his wife is awesome and loves him. He doesn’t police her desire to wear heels or continuously bring up his height because he had chosen not to be insecure. That makes him attractive and desirable, not his inches or centimeters.

I dated a guy who was really sensitive about his height even though he was 5”10 - 5”11. Anytime I wore shoes that slightly increased my height he would get kind of irritable because it made us closer in height. He even asked me a few times how tall my dad is. I only realized when I started learning about red pill where his sensitivity was coming from - it was obvious from his other beliefs that he was deep into red pill, and I realized why he thought height was so important.

I'm so sorry. You know, as a woman, it wasn't until I learned about red pill that I even discovered that 6 ft was the "floor" for "high value" attraction. I dated a guy who was 6'3" once and tbh it was a pain kissing him. He was too tall. This leads me to wonder how many women who have never even heard of red pill started adopting that standard simply because it became popular AS A RESULT of red pill. Sort of like a "keeping up with the Joneses" effect.

Which means red pill is causing self fulfilling prophecies and shooting themselves in the foot by popularizing a certain "type." Much in the same way the Kim Kardashian body type has become more popular in recent years.

I totally get it! I was so concerned about my age (30 yes) as a woman. I’ve had people tel me I’d die alone if I didn’t lower my standards and marry a the first guy that gives me attention because that’s all I’m going to get. I really had to go to therapy and distance myself from the internet because I fell into a deep depression thinking I was going to die alone. Im happier now though ❤️❤️I wish the same for you ❤️❤️❤️

There’s times the messaging gets to me and makes me feel super insecure. But then I remember how complicated humans are and how big the world is and how weird those people are.

Additionally as far as height goes it’s like saying guys are only interested in big boobs or big butts does it mean that a girl that doesn’t have either or is unattractive? Or not going to get a complimentary partner? No.

Some women/men care about those things and some don’t. Focus on those that want you for YOU. And 5 ft9 isn’t short it’s the average height for males and most men that are 6 feet and above that I know are single and struggling. Height ain’t helping them 🤣🤣🤣

lilycamilly · 2023-06-03T11:28:18+00:00

I'm a 6'2" woman, and I haven't dated a guy taller than me in a LOOOOOOONG time. My current partner is just under 6 feet, most of my serious partners have been between 5'9" and 5'11". I've dated men as short as 5'6". The height thing ain't that big a deal, my friends.

Naus1987 · 2023-06-03T10:34:33+00:00

I'm 5'7", and I've never had an issue with my height. And I can get relationships easy.

After exploring this topic in the past. I think it really has to do with the type of woman you're looking for. I've never been interested in hook-up culture. I think it's stupid. So my dating success has entirely been within long-term ROMANTIC relationships. And when it comes to romance, your height is just a number. What matters is how your soul sings.

But for hook-up culture, it's all about looks. Hook ups don't care about personality. They just want cheap thrills.

And for hook-up people to value height, that doesn't bother me. Because I'm not interested in those kinds of people either, lol. So we naturally avoid each other.

“Men only like skinny girls.”

persianblues · 2023-06-03T15:36:25+00:00

If this was true short people wouldn’t exist because their parents wouldn’t reproduce. The existence of short people is a proof of their desirability

WWhiMM · 2023-06-03T05:14:42+00:00

The part where you didn't even know what six foot means is very funny to me.
Imagine someone were to pitch the idea to you in centimeters, they say to you, "women only like guys over 182.9 cm." lol, what
is it not 180 cm? or 183? no, no, the dividing line is specifically just below 183
same statement, but it hits a little different with the conversion, looks a lot more silly and arbitrary and imaginary

CptHappyOrange · 2023-06-03T09:53:48+00:00

I'm 5'8 and I started considering it a filter. This repels shallow women and, well, if it's just a girl's preference but she ain't shallow, then we just aren't compatible. I have preferences too, so I can't be a hypocrite. And I am sure you have preferences as well.

azucarleta · 2023-06-03T14:22:30+00:00

Well don OP spotting the pretty simple falsehood. The RP content creator is neggin'g their own audience.

"Women don't like men under 6 feet, (but stick with me and maybe there's a bit of hope for you yet.)"

Ironically, by digging at the audience's low self esteem, which they came to this channel to improve, they need more and more of the channel's advice. As long as the viewer doesn't recognize this is going on, it's all money fam.

My friend was 5.8 and got a gf and had few women crushing on him sooooo

under_the_snow · 2023-06-03T17:57:09+00:00

I'm 1m75 and most of my crushes were guys my size or shorter. I think I never had or maybe only once had a crush on a tall guy.

Alot of redpill views on things are just too much and not representative of most people at all, but yeah, they're very convincing and once you're hooked on it it changes your whole perception of reality.

liveultimate · 2023-06-03T20:43:44+00:00

Joe Rogan is 5’8”. Don’t think he would have much trouble with women if he was single

Focus on yourself and find a girl who doesn’t care about height and likes you for who you are

rafaman777 · 2023-06-04T07:45:12+00:00

I'm 5'5 and always had consistent gfs since High School . I'm not saying I was Brad Pitt but I had zero issues, I approached girls who showed interest in me. I did have a personal rule where I would not pursue women who were substantially taller then me. Other than that I lived in a Western Country and had gfs from Asian, Arabic and Latina backgrounds. I never experienced one gf complain about my height.

My best friend is the same height and he had women all over. He had gfs much taller and stunning girls. He is a character very funny and chatty. The girls loved him. He is a 5'5 perisan guy who was balding.

Opposite_Canary_7986 · 2023-06-09T01:45:27+00:00

It’s fcked up. They engrave this thought that you need to be super tall to be attractive. I’m quite tall and don’t find many guys taller than me and yet red pill made me actually believe that these guys that were taller were superior. Girls would call me tall and I would still feel insecure about my height, somehow.

wasted_basshead · 2023-06-13T15:33:19+00:00

Not true. In MMA/UFC I always root for the underdog/shorter one. They’re always cuter too.

SuperbWaffle · 2023-07-05T20:14:42+00:00

Thank you for sharing your perspective ❤️

I'm neurodiverse, so I pretty much defy the common expectations regarding attraction. I don't have a specific height range preference. I'm 5'5", so the downside of a taller man is craning my neck back too far if I'm looking at his face lol

It would be fun to piss off red pillers when they have asinine standards of measurement for what's "attractive" by saying, "Well, if you're not American, you're not using English Standard measurement, so numbers don't matter when using the Metric System 😁"

bigchangemichael · 2023-06-03T02:39:20+00:00

The statistics are based on dating apps. Most women set the height filter to 5’11” or more. In real life women are not as shallow.

vb2509 · 2023-06-03T15:30:32+00:00

Not pilled but this crap is pretty common in tinder bios. Also, my colleague was talking about how a date started dissing on him and started talking about how he is not even 6' tall as if it is some kind of last resort (he is 5'9). So I think this is also present offline.

I would still say some women do find men "too tall". My roomate jokingly suggested his friend to date me since I'm single and looking to date and she found me too tall for her (I'm 5'9, she was 5'0).

ManWazo · 2023-06-03T18:33:50+00:00

I'm 5"3 and knew being short was a bad thing way before discovering the red pill. People, friends, strangers and family kept telling me "it's not that bad" (implying it's a bad thing) and "you have other qualities" (implying it's a bad trait). The red pill just said directly things that society is too afraid to say explicitly. If society was more honest, the redpill wouldn't exist to pray on insecure or inadequate men.

Fun-Click4624 · 2023-06-03T19:45:20+00:00

It's true that women will not even consider dating a man who is shorter than them. They all want a man who is taller. That being said I don't think they all need a man who is 6'0. He just needs to be noticeably taller.

2023-06-04T05:25:34+00:00

Suddenly all of a sudden height became an insecurity. Suddenly Im spiteful towards women and tall men.

To be honest, it sounds like it just exposed the fact that you are insecure in general, and also brought to light the fact that you have a bit of a victim mentality.

If you weren't insecure, it wouldn't have bothered you to hear that.

Sadly those beliefs are hard to let go of

People say all kinds of shit all the time, true and false... I think the real problem lies in how you are processing those things.

The 6ft thing is proven actually.
