Plot of The Bachelorette

The series revolves around a single bachelorette (deemed eligible), who is usually a reject from the previous Bachelor season, and a pool of romantic interests (typically 25; 30 in season 5), which could include a potential husband for the bachelorette. The show starts with the bachelorette standing in front of the mansion and greeting each male contestant individually when they walk out of the limo. After each rose ceremony, the pool of contenders gets smaller, which eventually leaves the bachelorette to decide between two contestants in the final rose ceremony.

For the final selection, one of two male suitors proposes to the bachelorette. All thirteen seasons of The Bachelorette have ended with a proposal which the bachelorette either accepted or declined.

If this information is correct and since the average American female height is 65 inches (5'5") then the preferred bachelor height would be 74.2 inches (6'2.2"). This information supports the previous study that I linked from the Netherlands which stated that the preferred height difference between men and women is 8.24 inches and the ideal male height is 6'4.28".
