No but this is important to some women.
yea normally the really short ones :lol:

IME, ive dated short, close to my height, taller, it doesn't matter, what matters is attraction and if there isn't any then it doesn't matter if you are 6'3 200lbs with low BMI and perfect shape. Confidence and being a gentleman goes a lot longer.

Confidence + being a gentleman and 6'3 in perfect shape, well folks then we are fucked.

subscribe to my news letter :p

Of course it is. Never argued against it. I only said I wouldn't be interested in lying about my heigth, I don't exactly understand why you decided to advocate in favor of that.

I’m not advocating it. I’m just explaining how some women view men under 6’ so some guys lie or stretch the truth about it.

At 5’8” there’s no point in me lying about being 6’ but if I were 5’11” I’d probably round up.

I didn't ask for an explanation. The fact that you started giving one unprompted is exactly why you'd advocating.

I"m 5'10". I was gonna round up to 5'11" but if I were 5'11" I'd probably round up to 6'. So I might as well skip the 5'11" nonsense and go straight for 6'. Amirite?

I'm about 5'10" - 5'11" (or 6' on dating profiles) and tried on a XL in Whitesville - VERY short, as I recall. Like, too short

I'm 6'1" relatively long torso, and they worked on me. My black ones are slightly smaller in all directions than my white ones (I think they're a Japanese market L whereas the white ones are an American market L) but even those aren't too short.

That said, things like this are all about preference. Check out History Preservation's site. I believe he has some bigger sizes than they sell in Japan, all of which have detailed measurements, so the larger sizes might suit your tastes.
