Why would I not be compatible with this type of woman?

I think Boo's just fine where he is, in a nice climate.

Beirut has one of the nicest climates in the world, actually. Especially if you're near the coast. Inland, it can probably get pretty hot.

And it's an historic city. When I think of Beirut, I think of Camus (even though Camus was in Algeria).

Generalization isn't always bad; and it may save you time and in some extreme cases.... your life.

If I see a guy wearing an ISIS shirt then I am gonna generalize and assume that he may murder me and so I ll just avoid him; he may be a nice isis - but I won't bet much on that.

Ok.... that was extreme, but for thr nth time I say I would date a taller girl only if she asks me out, othetwise I won't bother.

A guy wearing an ISIS shirt is communicating to you certain ideologies by wearing that ISIS shirt. He chooses to wear the shirt to communicate his support for them...with few exceptions anyway. The same cannot be said for physical attributes, whether those attributes be attributes that make someone female or someone short.

He has expressed discontent with certain cultural aspects of his country.

It's all dogma. That most of the women (think they) want a man taller than herself. But how she feels with you is more important. You can find plenty of examples of short guys with tall women. They are the exception...yes. Asian men have this problem.

For practical reasons it probably helps if difference is not too large but still...I am 6ft4 and was often a sucker for small girls, so cute...more into tall women nowadays (OK tiny Jena Malone, 5ft5 is still a goddess to me) but really it don't matter that much.

If you find yourself turned on greatly by tall women why not make use of that and talk to those women to get your heartbeat up?

Yes, its tall guys like you going for cute short girls that makes it hard for very tall girls to find dates. If tall guys go for short girls there aren't many tall guys left for the tall girls. I'm not saying that is wrong--I'm just pointing out why tall girls have so much trouble finding dates--there is a post on 25July that came to the wrong conclusion.

I'm not so convinced of the scarcity...if there's lots of tall girls around there's probably enough tall guys too, average height just differs per country, in Netherlands it's quite high and the simply both girls and guys are tall. Guys will go with a shorter girl because there is always a difference, on average women are shorter.

My advice, don't get stuck to dogma. If somebody makes you feel great and it's mutual, who cares about height. It's hard enough to find someone compatible already and don't let the height get in the way.

I sincerely hope that really tall women don't get approached that much if I've got my eye on them but if they're beautiful I see them get loads and loads of attention regardless. Most men are tall enough to at least be equally tall.

Problem is as well short men might have a hard time getting small women because they might want the tall guys.

That said me being a little under average I often find myself gravitating to taller than average woman.

I still find it strange that height is so important to some people...or maybe people here are misjudging the importance of it to most people.

You're not that short, man. Just stand up straighter.

I'd have to jump three inches to get to your height.

But one thing that I’ve never really gotten – after 10 years as a dating coach – was women’s obsession with height. And it’s not a myth. It’s real.

Women sometimes like to look up to men. It makes them feel secure, somehow.

Not all women are like this, though.

I have conceded that not many women will look up to me. So I have to create some other ways to charm ladies.

I myself cant say I've ever been very concerned with height except for thinking someone too much taller might make things a little impractical as I'm barely 5 ft tall...though even then I didn't view it as an absolute deal breaker.

That explains it--even if you wear heels, most men are taller than you--which is what most women want.

A long time ago I read an article about a 6ft4 girl in school who got abusivd mail from other girls because she was so tall such as "go kill yourself etc"

Not cool

Apparently they weren't afraid she'd beat them up
