How tall would women want a man to be if they are short?

As tall as their height inferiority complex.

How tall do YOU want a man to be? Do you like tall men better than short men? It's your choice. There's no "shoulds" as far as that is concerned.

I don't really care, too much, how tall a woman is. I've been attracted to tall women and to short women.

I like short guys. The shorter the better.
Tall guys make me a little uncomfortable.

Anything under 6 ft is a death sentence if you're a guy

Ideally, you should be 6' 4'' and believe it or not this holds regardless of how tall the girl is

A lot of really short attractive women do like their men to be really tall. Why? Because they can have a requirement like that and still find suitors. But, this is the sort of thing that drives paid matchmakers crazy!

Where do you come up with this?

How do you account for the millions of men under 6ft (I'm an inch or two shy of that height myself) who are in relationships???

All the world famous male models are around 6' 4'', thus its the ideal height. Lots of girls also put "do not contact me if you're under 6''" on their dating profiles so that is a sign that being under 6 feet tall is a negative trait

I myself am under 6'' but close to that so on my license it says 6'' because I lied about being taller than I am, tbh Id feel pretty embarrassed about giving someone my license and on it being a height that starts with a 5, I guess you could say Im insecure but there are really no drawbacks

Finally, I dont know how to word this properly but most guys who are under 6'' who are in relationships are not "safe" in that if a taller guy whos equally aesthetic comes around their gfs or wives would leave them or at least would prefer to do so (though often they dont because starting a new relationship comes with risk)

If women could choose to customize their bfs tho, every single one would make her bf at least 6'' tall

Please correct me if I'm wrong but here's what you seem to think based on what you've written above:

- Because male models are apparently an average of 6' 4", ALL women want a man who is 6' 4" and those that are with a man who is shorter than that height don't really love them and are just waiting for a taller man to replace them with or at the least, forever yearn for a taller man.

Did I get your thought process right?

More or less yes, thats the essence of it. Now there are obviously outliers theres no denying that, but as the general rule that statement is correct

Where are you getting your information that as a general rule nearly all women require or perpetually long for a man who is 6'4" tall?

They dont REQUIRE but they STRONGLY PREFER men who are 6' 4''.

I’m 6’4 and it doesn’t help at all.

I don't doubt that being short is a disadvantage for a man, but average height guys are not at a huge disadvantage.

Among the 6 men I know personally who sleep around a lot (or did so in the past in one case) and do it with ease 3 are certainly below 6 ft (5' 9'' or 5' 10''), 1 is pretty much 6 ft or a tiny bit below, 1 is a tiny bit above 6 ft and 1 is about 6' 3''.
(Yes, I know their height because 3 of them are relatives of mine and that's the height they told me (they could have lied but what man ever claims to be shorter than he really is?)
The other 3 heights are estimates based on how much taller or shorter they are than guys whose height I know)

The height I'm personally most attracted to in men is from 5'9'' to 6'3'' but those are not strict borders. It's ideal but not a strict requirement.

Some modeling jobs have height requirements. You wouldn't guess the ideal height for women from female models, would you? Not all famous male actors are above 6 ft.

Yes, some women say they want a guy 6 ft or above. In my country they'd say 1.80m instead, which is more than an inch shorter but both are pretty numbers. They won't bring a tape measure to your date.

Yes, that is insecure. There are drawbacks for your well-being because feeling insecure or embarrassed is just not pleasant. Whether or not there are drawbacks for your chances with getting sex or a girlfriend depends on if other people notice your insecurities (which are probably not just about your slightly above average height) or not.

Not unless she only got into a relationship with him out of desperation or their relationship has other problems worse than his height.

My customized boyfriend would be 6'' slightly above or slightly below 6''. Because in that range slightly taller or slightly shorter makes absolutely no difference for attractiveness.

Not if you're overweight or unattractive, no, but otherwise it would be an advantage.

You know my height already: just under 5 foot 5. I'm a shrimp.....

I always say this: you and a woman are the same height if you're in bed kissing.
