quote: ORIGINAL: IronBear FR I honestly have no idea on this. never asked, been asked nor heard any discussion when I was ambling about the local scene. I'm 6'3" 135kgs (about 285 lbs) without too much fat,. although I want to drop 35 kgs of body fat and replace it with 35 kgs of toned muscle which will happen when they decide to replace my knees).. Virtually all my wives and lovers have been in the 5' to 5'4" mark but not due to my preferences rather than to they attracted me for other reasons such as looks, intelligence and mostly personality. Sorry - quick off topic question - what does "FR" mean? I've seen it a few times? First read?

bamabbwsub -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 5:32:35 PM)
I'm only 5'0", and I'll admit that I'm initially more attracted to taller men (say, 5'10" or above). And I agree with what some others have mentioned; that is, a guy who is tall seems more protective because of his size. If I were to meet someone who is 5'4" but has a very dominant personality, the height preference would probably become a moot issue, up to a point. However, with that said, in all honesty, if I were to meet a dominant man who was a few inches shorter than me (under 5'0")? I'm not quite so sure I could overlook it (pardon the pun).

quote: ORIGINAL: littlesarbonn If my height means you're not attracted to me in the slight, why would you care what I have to say about those who discriminate based on height? Because saying "it's someone else's stupidity at being so tied to physical necessities" is insulting to people who have different views than you do. That's like if i said you're stupid for having hair when I think you shouldn't.

ZenDragoness -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 6:02:10 PM)
I do not know, if it is shallow, but i have noticed that most women want a man taller then them. As i said before, maybe it is partly biologically ingrained. Taller can fight better and defend you and the children if necessary....

Taller can fight better and defend you and the children if necessary.... Zen, as someone pointed out, I am 6'2, have a deep voice, and my physical presence is one that puts caution into others. That said, I will not hesitate to face off against a guy my size, however, I absolutely give pause to "short guys" and think before I engage them. Some of them little fuckers are mean, they don't quit, they don't back down, and they will hurt you. I bet if IronBear posts, he will back me up on that. I might get confronted less but do not for a second think a "short guy" is in any way less able to protect you. You might FEEL safer but the reality has to be judged on a case by case basis. One of the most studly things I have EVER witnessed was years ago in a movie theater. A bunch of jocks were teasing these two girls in front of a buddy and I. Finally, the one with the long dark hair stood up and turned around and it was a short petite guy who had the wirey look. As cool as ice he simply said "would any or all of you care to step outside and discuss this" Silence, total silence. Three jocks vs one girl sized guy and THEY backed down. Bet he got some that night and they probably couldn't get it up for a month.

mydestiny2043 -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 7:02:15 PM)
Height doesn't matter to me either way you're either confident in who and what you are or you're not.I'm 5'10 and 1/2 and growing up a lot of guys were intimidated by that,add to that I wore high heels as soon as my parents let me so unless I was barefoot I was usually around 6'3 to 6'4 in my heels I would even have guys tell me the only way they would go out with me is if I wore flats [:'(]NOT.But the ones that it didn't would tell me how much they loved the view from where they were standing.

LadyHibiscus -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 7:56:00 PM)
I am with Michael on the danger of short guys---some ladies were talking about takedown scenes, and my petite pal was teasing a short, wiry top. No WAY would I have gotten into it with him, he could have taken both of us down at once with speed and strength!

KneelforAnne -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 8:21:53 PM)
Like others on here I am initially attracted to men taller than I am. For some reason, a taller man gives me that little quiver in the belly, that weakness in the knees. I stand 5’7” barefoot-- on the taller side-- and when I have my hooker heels on (I love that phrase!) I’m sometimes at least 5’10-5’11. I think the fact that I am taller and plus size has something to do with it. I want someone that I feel comfortable with. I’ve been with men well over 6 feet tall and men roughly my height. I just feel more feminine with a taller, larger man. Am I shallow? I hope not. But maybe. I like what I like. I respond to some things more than others. I hope that I am mature enough to see more than the package, though.

Ladylocks -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 9:08:53 PM)
I like the fact that I'm still taller when HE is wearing the hooker heels. [:D] How can you help but feel powerful and in control when your slave boy maid is in 4 inch heels and you are in flats or barefoot and you can still look down at him? I'm sure the reverse is true with him feeling more submissive this way. Of course when he is down on all fours it matters less but I prefer a lapdog over a big breed.

gentlemanprince -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 9:12:36 PM)
I am 5'3", perhaps an inch taller than my Lady. Ever other man she has dated has been close to 6' or above. But it doesn't matter. She says that I'm just "concentrated" and loves that I'm small enough to fit on her lap. She's happy and so am I. :)

catize -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 9:34:28 PM)
quote: I think the main reason height is important to women is because they want to feel small and safe in their man's arms. There’s a tiny little piece of my brain that wishes I was shorter. I am equal in height or slightly taller than most men I know and a lot taller than most women I know. S. is a few inches shorter than I am; R. is my height. It is their dominance that makes me feel ‘small and safe’ and their size is not a factor. Hmmm, just had an insight that perhaps my height is one of the reasons I am attracted to D/s. I will have to ponder that possibility!

WyldHrt -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 9:57:55 PM)
quote: Its shallow for a man to desire a woman who is on the thin side, a trait she can have some control over, however, it is not shallow for a woman to want a tall man, a trait guys can do very little to alter. Not to me. I see both as simply preferences, part of that thing we call "chemistry" when speaking of what attracts people to each other. The only time I have an issue is when said preferences are expressed in insulting ways, which is (IME) far more common in any fat thread posted than in any height thread. Funny, that. ETA- quote: Some of them little fuckers are mean, they don't quit, they don't back down, and they will hurt you. I have to agree with this, having seen my ex- a very thin but muscular guy- take down guys twice his size , often to their complete surprise, lol.

ZenDragoness -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 11:31:01 PM)
Michael, i have the same experience than you. My husband is 1,70 m and i once asked his brother who is more than a head taller than him and weighs around 30 kilograms more, why M. won every fight they had. S. said because he is meaner than me. I know that M. was a very dangerous fighter in his younger days and even today people do not cross him lightly, although he will normally no longer engage in fights. He is not the first shorter men that i met, who is like that. I referred to a kind of biological reflex and i am sure that you have understood me before.

ZenDragoness -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 11:33:37 PM)
quote: part of that thing we call "chemistry" And that is the question why being tall in a man is bringing that chemistry on WyldHrt. There are a lot of psychological and biological studies going on even as we write here, that try to find out things like that.

WyldHrt -> RE: Height (6/8/2009 11:59:29 PM)
quote: And that is the question why being tall in a man is bringing that chemistry on WyldHrt It's still just one factor, ZenDragoness. My whole family is tall (at 5'9", I am the shortest one), but my 6'2" sister married a guy 5'7", and my 6'8" brother married a gal who is 5'2" in heels. My preference may be for a guy who is taller than me, but the Dom who has captured and kept my attention for quite awhile now is my height, and it doesn't matter to me at all (in fact, the whole being taller than him when wearing "bitch boots" while knowing what will happen when they come off is definitely hot). To me, preferences are a sort of "wish list" that you come up with when picturing the person you think will suit you best. IME, said list tends to go out the window when you meet someone you really click with, lol.

WyldHrt, i never had a list like that:-), but i am really happy to read that the moment somebody is really interesting the list is not any longer of interest. But, wait, i have something on the list. Green eyes are my downfall. I really, really love green eyes.

porcelaine -> RE: Height (6/9/2009 1:01:22 AM)
i prefer my men taller. it has always been this way and i've dated them above and under six feet. i prefer them over that mark and that is generally what i'm attracted to. i like the variance, looking up into his eyes, and feeling physically like his little girl. this isn't to say that shorter men can't bring about the Daddy like vibes, but i probably wouldn't equate that to him at first glance. porcelaine

Goddess2002 -> RE: Height (6/9/2009 3:36:52 AM)
Hi Heavan's Keeper, With my Dom partner, I find that much of my attraction to him as a Dominant lies with his height and physical prowess. He is 6'4 and a powerlifter....which almost make me feel like a child next to him sometimes! Conversely, since I myself am short, I've had times where I REALLY wished I could grow another 4 inches or so instead of relying on those darn platform shoes all the time. A lilliputian Domme...lol.
