The whole height requirement is such a weird American thing that I don't see over here in the Netherlands at all. Could also be that 6' is just the average male height (not to flex, of course) and there's not really a next logical step. 2m perhaps?

Also, why don't we have these standards for women? Give me a woman who is 6'5. Let me be the little spoon for once.
95 percent of women prefer to date men that are taller than they are
for some women it isn't a deal breaker, but it almost as if women are wired to prefer men who are:
1. Taller
2. Older
3.(supposedly) Smarter
4(as much as possible wealthier
than they themselves are.............


It is often argued that if left without societal regulations, 100% of women would only want the top 10 percent of men.
And Monogamy was created so that ugly short men like me would have a chance at women because one the preferred man i secured by a woman, then the others would have to choose the next best man available.................

Looks like a Lewis Leathers Monza/Super Monza without the padding. I heard that some special requests were considered in the past. In the meantime, unfortunately, no more. I would have otherwise also taken a Monza without padding.
Thanks, I assumed monza but wasn't sure about the padding. Much appreciated.

I only meet up with men who go by names such as GiraffeSimons and PabloThriftscobar online.

Agreed with this- Personality & being confident in who you are matter way more than height

what I said…

Even that knife discussion in RFT a while back made more sense than this height thing.
What knife


Confidence and personality can really shine through on a tinder or whatever dating profile.

it can and generally negatively, if I read a too demanding profile or some negative ****, skip it

Of course . But as you know, that alone is not enough, because you have to be a little asshole at the same time, but just enough that there is a charm without being negative.
lol

i know what you are talking about man.

and nice on the dream gal,alwyas good to hear.

Gimme that elastic waist and 80s paneling. Nothing against the venerable and time-tested designs most frequently discussed here but I can't resist the pull of a few well executed more discutable or scabrous details.

I just found out my wife is 5'2". She told me 5'3" 20 years ago. I'm not saying anything else without an attorney.

I hope you didn’t sign a prenup so you can take half her money when you file for divorce.

Quick update. Just did the math. Half her money is actually half my money. So I think if my math is correct, I end up with a quarter of my money??

I need an IB/PE baller's help. Numbers aren't my strong suit.

Half your shoes are going to be half her shoes. You’ll need to pick if you want the left shoe or right shoe
