The global average height for women is 159cm. For a vast majority of men, they are not short enough, and women are not tall enough, for height to be a serious issue in dating (unless they are dealing some Americans with 6 6 6 brainwashing).

Beyond that, if you're good looking or charismatic enough (i.e., have good social skills and game), lots of women will overlook your height even if you are shorter.

Personally, 1/3 of the women I've slept with or dated were taller than me. In fact, I've never had a women tell me I was too short in my entire life, it seems like a complex men give themselves. (I'm 176 cm for reference). I also have several close friends who are shorter than me, who have dated many attractive women and had no issues with height.

In the end, height just doesn't matter that much. Unless you're way below average (like bottom 20%) as a man, or you live in America where lots of women have an unhealthy fetish with extreme height, it's not your main issue.

Actually even in America, the number of women who really care about 6 6 6 is not as high as red pillers would try to scare you into thinking.

Don't let people gaslight you into having a complex about it. You're probably tall enough.

( Also, I wish someone had told me this when I was younger, it would have saved me a lot of years of unnecessary anxiety about it. )

Also for reference, the global average height for men is 171 cm.
