    I have a thing for tall women. I'm 5'9" but find myself eyeballing women over the 6 foot mark. Rare as they are, I find 'em stunning :)

    What about you lot? Would you go out with someone taller than you?

    It's "yea or nay" :mad:

    And yes, taller than me is great :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,092 ✭✭✭CiaranMT


    Not if they're taller than me. Very offputting for some reason!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 219 ✭✭Don Juan DeMagoo


    yea


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 874 ✭✭✭Ali Babba


    Most of them get an awful stoop after a few years OP, that's if you keep them that long......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,397 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    I don't really mind as long as they're good looking.

    I've never met a man smaller than me. I've met ones the same height or a small bit taller.
    But given the choice I'd go for tall. Makes me feel like a little pixie!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 32,865 ✭✭✭✭MagicMarker


    I'm 6'4, so a definite yay from me.

    I'd prefer in and around the same size as me tbh but never say never.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 240 ✭✭-Leelo-


    I'm a 5 ft nothing woman, so I say nay, but only cos I'm jealous of ther lovely long legs while I have to peg around on these stumps :(

    Yes, it is.
    Yea in this context is pronounced "yay" but it's still written "yea".


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 8,490 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fluorescence


    I'm 5'2 so it's unlikely there are very many men out there at all who aren't taller than me :pac:

    Pretty much all of the tall women I know are pretty slim and beautiful too. Makes me mucho jealous :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 316 ✭✭johnnyfruitcake


    Im 6'6 so I'd be hard pressed to find one :(

    I was watching Oprah earlier and there was a 16 year old girl on it who's 6ft 10:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    I like them tall girls
    I like them short girls
    I like them brown hair girls
    I like them blonde hair girls
    I like them big girls
    I like them skinny girls
    I like them carrying a little bitty weight girls.

    I like girls.

    Fine, title edited :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    Being vertically challenged myself, i'm quite interested to see the outcome of this thread :pac:

    Height doesn't bother me too much in a man. Couldn't go out with someone too much taller than me though-any taller than 6ft or so and i feel like a dwarf beside him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    It's my ambition to do a chick the same height as or taller than me.
    It's a difficult task because I'm 6' 2" and ugly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 415 ✭✭Holybejaysus


    Gotta say.....absolutely love tall women, when the proportions are right. Not crazy about stick chicks, nor strongly built women, but God, when you get a tanned, fit, tall, well dressed woman....divine, just divine.


    I'm 6'2, by the way....

    Maybe there's a sympathetic tall chick out there somewhere....maybe Sweden or some such place, lots of tall chicks up that way, even I felt small when I was there, which makes a change.....:pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 874 ✭✭✭Ali Babba


    ......i'm 6'6 by the way, just thought i'd let you know now that this thread is all about what height the posters are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    They're all the same lying down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭angelfire9


    I'm 6ft and female and i have to say the number of guys over the years who were intimidated by my height is just silly
    My hubby is 6ft 2" so in most of my heels i'm still taller than him :D

    Mary Harney is taller lying down.

    Think the issue is if the tall girl would wanna go near the shorter guy since women generally want to go with taller men.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 343 ✭✭Gigiwagga


    Tall, small, why should it matter. 'A felled tree is an easy climb.'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    I'm a tallish girl. (just over 5'9") And tbh sometimes if a guy is shorter than me it does turn me off them.

    I wouldn't like to be any taller. Always wanted to be short.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    I have a preference for shorter girls (5'5 and under) but I'll take whatever I can get. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 journo gal


    I'm so surprised by all of the love for us tall girls! Seems a wee bit inaccurate though, considering all the male posters seem to be at least 6 foot tall :D

    I'm 5 10" and guys are more than happy with my height.... until I put on the auld high heels. When I'm tottering around on 6 inch super heels, looking down at them, I find the boys begin to feel inadequate or intimidated. Something to do with male pride, I suppose :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Don't really have a preference, though if a girl was over 6ft it would probably start getting a little bit awkward because I'm quite short. :pac:

    why do girls like yourself need to wear 6 inch heels though, i never understand that, my friends girlfriend is about 5'9 and wears these superheels everywhere and she is an inch or two taller than me (6ft in shoes) in em and can barely walk :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭Sisko


    Yeah I thought the idea of big heels was for those girls that are short, if your tall why go for massive heels?
    :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 451 ✭✭Rocket19


    I'm between 5'8 and 5'9 so it's hard to find other girls much taller than me. You do get the odd one though. One of my friends is about 6ft and she is stunning!

    When I put on heels I'm 6ft or more. While I don't think it puts guys off, it doesn't really matter to me anyway. I love tall guys. 6'3 is perfection in my mind!

    I do find that when I'm out I'm like "why are all the guys so small?" when really they're like 5'11 :D.
    Still, least it means that I can concentrate on the nice tall ones. Yum!

    They make your legs look awesome. Also, I don't really feel like I'm going out unless I'm wearing heels.
    Not all girls are crap at wearing heels! :rolleyes:

    It's only the taller ones who are quoting their heights. All the midgets are keeping quiet.

    (Sophie Dahl, 6ft and wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating dessert.)

    In the interests of market research, would the good lady be prepared to post a picture of herself on this thread? ;) Wearing the latest Jimmy Choo range...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,660 ✭✭✭veryangryman


    Yay

    They generally have their wits about them

    My OH does and the added bonus of being hot too :D:D:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 journo gal


    Ah lads, sometimes heels are a necessity for us tall girls. A beautiful guna or trampy skirt wouldn't be the same without the obligatory sky scraper heels :D:D

    Lol...I love how I've only made like 10 posts and this is the second time I've been asked for pics :rolleyes:
    In this case, it's not actually of me, but whatever. lol

    Ohhh, and the answer is no, sorry dear :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,297 ✭✭✭Jaxxy


    I have a very tall friend, she too is stunning and the men folk go crazy for her. I, on the other hand, am a midget, or "fun-sized" or "Kylie-sized" as one of my exes used to say. I do love tall men though. :D


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 8,490 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fluorescence

    How does being tall make this statement true? :confused:

    So he didn't have the balls to call you a midget to your face then?
