I’ve seen people consider even 5’7" as short for some reason so i’m curious if it has happened with someone

      Also 172/5’8 and same, several times! Even from me who were still taller than me! Also dated someone who didn’t care and was 175/5’9 and when we went out together and my shoes made me taller than him, we’d get an average of like 10 comments, all from men, about it. Lots of friends have told me their only slightly taller ex bf wouldn’t ‘let’ them wear heels.

      Also, on a dating app, I’d get about 50/50 matches from masc and fem people when I didn’t list my height. When I did list it, I’d get mostly fem ones, and all the masc ones were tall. And fewer matches overall.

        yes! it’s wild getting it from guys who are already taller than me. I’m lucky enough to have not had the experience of looking for a partner on dating apps(unless discord counts?), but i hear all the time about how absurdly superficial they are
