Where are all the tall guys in Ireland

    No, it's short arse...


    It actually isn't, it's a medium height. Under 5'8" is generally viewed as short, above 5'10" is tall. A 5'9" guy in a group of men isn't going to look short, but a 5'6" or 5'7" guy will.



    That's pretty standard, even if you look at clothes sizes and just generally really.

    No one was talking “Metal”, D. We were talking about GnR “wannabe” bands.

    Apologies for the confusion.

    Ah my good friend Emmet, there was a guy listing off metal bands.. Not correct spelling but he was just playing with words. Nonetheless they were all metal.

    A 5'9" guy among a group of 6'+ stands out... As short

    Every inch counts

    Sorry, but if you think it's ok to openly discriminate against other types of men through posts like this, then would you also think it is ok for a man to open a thread like 'where are all the women under size 10?'.

    Size 10 body - your weight can change.
    Height - Does not change after a certain height.
    Upset short men please get off the thread thats not what its for.

    "Where are all the tall guys" is in the same category as "where are the all the good guys?". It's more "where are all the guys I fancy?", because really being attracted to someone depends on a combination of factors and not a made-up checklist.



    There are plenty of girls who put height requirements on their dating profiles though not because they aren't interested in men of average height or even on the short side, but because so many guys overstate their height and then it's a disappointment when they meet up! Mainly because they've been mislead...


    But it's all just made-up until you meet someone you do fancy...a friend of mine told me years ago that she only went for really tall guys, until she met her now husband who is around my height (5'8" - 5'9")!

    I don't doubt it... Swear I was just being crude AF.

    Melons so water melons are big, honeydew are small I was trying to get an idea of size.




    Are you mad, did you see what happened to the last lad who was a Saviour he got nailed to a cross, because he claimed he was the bread of life. I'm not that stupid I'm just tall. ;)

    Well if you read the thread you'd know my melon cup size... I stated it

    Who insinuated you were crude? I didn't


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭DisneyLover


    Tell us this, TDT, have yourself or Disney gotten many PMs? Just interested to know the amount of perverts I'm dealing with here and all this melon talk will have brought them out in force.

    Yes we have as I explained earlier on in my long winded rant.

    Threats, video clips, and weirdos


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭DisneyLover


    I like all the classics. Met a lickah, Mongodeth, Slayers, Puntera. My favourite is probably Iron May Den though.

    Yes quite the spectacle. Would they take much precedence on your denim jacket?


  • Registered Users Posts: 338 ✭✭lastusername


    @DisneyLover a guy I know and meet up with from time to time is probably one of the tallest guys in Ireland, I'll have to send him a link to this thread ha. He's the kind of guy you'd see a mile off walking down a beach / pier / street :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 681 ✭✭✭TheDenialTwist

    RATM were awesome live too so were Metallica

    Haven't seen Iron Maiden live, unfortunately


  • Registered Users Posts: 393 ✭✭DisneyLover

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,087 ✭✭✭eviltimeban


    I'm 6'5" and like rock music (I play in a noise rock band).

    However I am firmly married. Sorry I couldn't be of further help.

    Not taking it seriously at all, quite the opposite! Not sure if you're looking for people to actively message you or just having a discussion...prob best if it's the latter :D

    Oh ok ha, that makes more sense :)

    Haha, DisneyLover, I'm exactly the same height as you and often wonder what a lonely girl I'd be if I wasn't married judging by the horrified looks I get from guys here because of my height. Ok, so maybe you're not all horrified but the general impression I get is that I'm "too tall". I'm from a Nordic country so when I go back home, I'm usually not even that tall there. My husband is 6'3".

    I know it sounds silly but I've sometimes wished I had tall friends. I know height doesn't matter but sometimes it would be nice to talk about things that you encounter as a tall woman. And get tips on where to find clothes hahah!

    Love to see there are people here who like metal and rock! For the longest time I thought there were basically none here in Ireland but I am glad I was wrong. Good luck with the manhunt, DisneyLover!
