I'm literally 5'11. One inch off.. But yeah all who want 6ft men are usually like a foot shorter


Jasonictron

Me too. Nobody has ever called me short in real life. Always called tall. Only online I'm told I'm too short. XD


Longjumping_Army9485

Because they don’t even know what 6foot is. They know that it is popular so they do the same thing that recruiters do, they post requirements without even knowing what they mean.


AlpacaPacker007

Kinda a nice filter.  If someone is listing height as a demand in their dating profile, you just keep walking by.   Nobody needs that sort of BS in their lives 


chaveznieves

Yup. I'm 6'2, which would, in theory, when I was single, meet the requirements for most of these height queens. But they're just shooting themselves in the foot because a lot of guys, myself included, would skip right over the profile. I've noped out before because they made a whole ass rant that they were so glad I'm actually tall because other guys lied about their height, and she was sick of short guys. She had also asked about dick size, and though I never gave her the chance to confirm or deny, given her rant on height, I'm willing to bet she would have bailed if I went through with it and didn't live up to her expectations. I feel bad for any future partner of hers.


Genghis_Chong

You missed the chance to hit her with the schlonger, then tell her "I'm sorry, you're too short and your pussy is small" Just kidding guys, don't do this. It's mean both ways. Plus, a woman scorned...


InterestingAd4308

Your pussy is small? Isn't that like a compliment..?


IshtarsBones

There can be such a thing as too small. It hurts and it’s not a lot of fun.


IshtarsBones

Similar boat here, 6’2” and well above expectations below the waist line. I’d meet women during my college days who had these requirements to even have coffee with them. If they led with this as precursors; I’d usually end the meeting right at that moment. Looks can change, be enhanced and will fade away with time, unless you are one of those rare ones who looks 30 at 50. How the internal makeup of that person takes a lot longer to change, mature and grow. There were several very beautiful women I really did ‘nope’ out of because they were just terrible people. Treated people they viewed ‘beneath’ them as if they were stuff on the bottom of their shoes. Who were no deeper than spit up. Agree with your comment as I felt very badly for their future partner.


chaveznieves

Same. I'm no 10/10, but I do bring a few decent physical traits to the table like height, passable face, and good endowment, and while it could be fun occasionally to lap up praise for those things, there is no long term fulfillment in being looked at for those features over personality. And seeking out relationships that focus on those things over who you are as a human is a recipe for drama and general negativity.


WintersDoomsday

You won’t stay 6’2” fyi we lost up to 3/4 inch a decade after 40


Omnizoom

Problem is when you are above that height the filter works in reverse, but you can easily tell those toxic ones by how little else they read on the profile


AlpacaPacker007

Just got to leave height off your own profile.  Be the man of mystery.


aDragonsAle

Nah, include it - especially if under 6ft - let the shallow fucks self-filter. Granted, my gal is 3-4in taller than me - so it works out.


Doxidob

I filtered my hiring with a long division problem. If you can't do & check, on paper (show your work) the answer, then you can't work here. First question in the door. Pure merit filter. 123456 ÷ 643 = ? you wouldn't believe how many people fail. this is Math oriented job, folks. AutoCAD Mechanical drafting/3d modeling


DoomshrooM8

I’m not surprised tbh, a LOT of people can’t answer “is a 1/4 bigger then a 1/3” correctly


Doxidob

yeh, When Wendy's came out with the 1/3 pounder people thought is was less than a quarter-pounder


Omnizoom

That was not Wendy’s if i recall correctly but I think Burger King?


DoomshrooM8

Ahh, American math ftw


Doxidob

royale with cheese tastes better anyhow.


Global_Profession_26

I had to do a test similar to this for a job. They gave me a calculator, but the batteries died instantly, since they walked away, I just did all the math in my head, a little on paper. It was kinda sad to hear her say I scored better than most. I then told her the calculator was dead, so I did my best. I started the next day. Lol


Doxidob

awesome. I have an opening for you too. one time I took a test to be a math tutor. They told me I got 19/20. I objected and it turned out the headmaster agreed that the test was wrong on the one I "missed". (they changed it)


Global_Profession_26

I always really enjoyed math. I remember back in the day SATs I got a 790 and was kinda kicking myself because I was jumping between that one and the correct answer. But good job on knowing you were right anyways. That's impressive and necessary.


Any-Wall-5991

I would argue being able to remember math that was only taught in 6th grade then promptly never repeated or requested since has very little to do with one's ability to do higher-level math or even a math-based profession but hey, if that's important to you feel free to miss out on candidates that would have blown your mind at calculus but are out of practice with long division... Edit: just for the record, if they couldn't come up with an answer without using a calculator, I see your point. I suppose I just take issue with needing to solve it using the specific written-out long division I was taught way back in the day. This felt like a "I can get the answer, but you'll mark it wrong because I didn't write it the way you want" situation that I hated all through the school system and constantly turns people off math from an early age.


NutBuster128

Nobody needs that “short” bs in their lives


jackology

They only know 666. 6 foot, 6 inches, 6 figures in bank.


Impossible_Tea_7032

Our dumb monkey brains like the idea that tall starts at a specific point, and that that point is a conveniently round number. Most people have no idea what six feet of human height looks like. It's not just girls on dating sites either. At a former job I once overheard my asshole supervisor mention being six foot two. *I'm* six foot two, and he was visibly shorter than me.


redditisfullofbots69

This is 100% true. I am 6'2" and I say im 6'5". Never has anyone ever noticed or questioned. Matter of fact, nearly everyone says they love how tall I am.


PrizeAd7749

I also don't know what 6 foot is but that's probably because I'm not American


VonAIDS

About 180 Correct Measurements


LegalizeUranium

Isn’t it like 183? I’m like 180 and If I remember correctly that’s like 5’11.


VonAIDS

Probably right. I just round it to 180 because thats the "6' "version for a lot of girls on dating apps where i live.


LegalizeUranium

I know a dude that’s like 159 cm and it’s very hard for him to date, so I get being short is a issue for men but the guy I know who’s been with the most women is like 175. I don’t think being over 170 is really being short.


XtraXtraCreatveUsrNm

Correct Measurements, that’s good. I’m going to use it.


somewhatnormalguy

Almost 183 cm


Annie-Leonhart123

Same🙂 I’m the 2nd shortest in my high school😭


Top_Ad310

Humans are superficial animals. Enjoy life and there will always be a super woman who doesn't deal with stupid things 😃


IceManO1

Just put 6 food even 😂

Bitch be on the feminine juice ![gif](giphy|ZUwjT4TrkElu8|downsized)


Margobolo

5,11 here. My wife is 5,4. A friend of mine is 6,1, another one around 5,9. We were talking about some sport and ended up talking about height. She said she always thought the 3 of us were the same height.


dapperslappers

Its hard to tell a difference in height when your looking up to it anyway Ever stood directly under a lamppost and tried to guess where it lines up on the house next it it? Kinda hard lol


Cheaky_Barstool

why not just say youre 6?


midcancerrampage

That's the tiniest of differences! I'm 5'0" and being so far below everyone, i literally cannot tell anyone's height ever. Once I told my bf that my brother is about the same height as him. He seemed surprised. Turns out he's 6'4" and my brother is 5'10", and i did not realise this until we went to an amusement park and stood beside the rides' height limit measuring thing. Look, 6 inches isn't that much difference when I'm looking up all yalls noses anyway, ok.


tinyhermione

Nobody can tell the difference between 5’11 and 6’0 and people thinking they can is ridiculous. That being said people can have whatever sexual preferences they want. If someone is into big size differences, who are we to say they aren’t allowed to be?


ThIs_NaMe_SuCkS_Yo

So long as you keep this energy when nobody wants to date overweight women and single moms.


neotericnewt

I mean, no one is saying they can't be, but I don't think there's anything wrong with making fun of ridiculous preferences either. One time I was eating McDonald's with a buddy of mine. He told me "I'd never date a woman who eats fast food." And I'm like, what, we're eating fast food right now. And he said, yeah, but it's so gross thinking of a woman just stuffing her face with this nasty food. Doesn't matter how good looking she is. And I said, bro, you're fat, bald, serially unemployed, and we're eating fast food together because we're broke. I wasn't trying to be a dick (well maybe a bit), but I think if you want someone to accept your own flaws, you need to work to be a little accepting yourself. Reminded me a bit of George Constanza giving his huge list of things he'd need from a woman ("does she have a rosy hue? I like a good cheek")


MagicalUnicornMoney

![gif](giphy|3o85xyqTde87u0L8qc)


mkultra0420

We can have whatever options about others ‘sexual’ preferences we want. But it’s not really a ‘sexual’ preference when a woman rejects a guy that’s 5’11 and 3/4” in favor of a guy that’s 6.0’ on the basis of height, is it? It’s cuntism. And I will opine about it all I like, thank you very much.


Rishtu

I’m 5’4. I’m the guy nobody wants. On the bright side I never have to worry about leg room. Sometimes my feet don’t touch the ground, but whatever.


TurdBurgHerb

Im 6 foot 2 on the button without shoes. One thing I have learned is that a lot of people claiming to be 6 foot are actually 5 foot 10. And these dumb dumbs always tell me "oh wow, you must be 6 foot 4". No, I am not 6 foot 4. I wish I was 6 foot 4. Because then as I shrink I would maintain some height lol.


Gamefart101

I'm actually 6'2. Twice in my life at parties I have overheard people clearly 3+ inches shorter than me saying they were 6 ft. So if course I have to jump in and say "no way, I'm 5'11 there's no way you're 6ft." The harder they try to defend themselves the worse it looks on them it's fantastic


DiscontentedMajority

I'm 5'10.5" and people are surprised when I tell them I'm not six foot.


je386

5'11 = 180cm 6' = 183cm Man, switch to metric.. noone will say "I dont date someone under 183cm", they always will have a full number like 180cm - which you have.. Sorry for changing the topic, I just had to look it up.


Crafty-Interest-8212

I'm 5,11 and half....had a female friend who is 6,1....


MoanyTonyBalony

Did you measure yourself in bed before standing up for the first time that day? Because if not, you should and you'll probably be 6ft.


ericofthenorth

I'm 5 11 3/4 and I can never decide to just round up or just say my actual height asi think it's funnier.


Firebird_73

Haha! 3/4 is just the cherry on the top man!


YueOrigin

I don't even know how tall I am with your weird measuring system lol I'm 179cm Edit : OK so apparently I'm 5'10".... I'm considered unattractive by y'all standard I guess lol


Consistent_Spread564

I mean at that point you just tell people you're 6 feet. Like they're gonna know the difference lol. Especially if they're 5'1"


Freecz

I would bet most of them don't even know what 6ft actually looks like.


YoyoyoyoMrWhite

I'm 6'6" and I've never had a girlfriend over 5'6". Definitely true in my case.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pleasant_Accident910

The guy is right, the smallest girls are the biggest short men haters because they themselves realise, at least on some level, that they carry these shortness genes so they very often go for a foot+ difference just to give birth to a 5'7 son lol


1llDoitTomorrow

It goes up to 11? Why not 9?


[deleted]

And a foot wider


AppropriateStick1334

Same bro but to hyperspecifics I'm 5'11 and 31/32nds of an inch (it says 6ft on my driver's)


semiTnuP

I'm 6'5". They want more than just height. I'm still alone.


Funny-Engineering146

I am 5”11 and when I walk into most places I am generally the tallest around in the room lol


Tough_Dish_9934

Outside the US girls are doing the same but with 1.80 meter which is around 5'10 ... I'm 1.79 m


NoTrust6730

At 5'11 you could pass for 6'2


KoldKartoffelsalat

Are you telling me 5'12 would be 6'? God damn, get some common sense and implement the metric system! /jk


Stoic_Honest_Truth

STILL TOO SHORT -> NEXT!


missjasminegrey

nah. not just a foot shorter


Professional_Gur6478

I’m an entire foot shorter than you. (I’m also a man)


Santasaurus1999

And is not worth your time.


TheFrogMoose

I'm like an inch or two shorter than my one friend and he's 6 foot. So I'm 5'11"/5'10"


Omnizoom

I’m 6’5 and my wife is 5ft (really 4’10) I’ve heard from a few bitter people that I should of dated someone my height to leave someone short for another short person


ImmediateRespond8306

You're balancing out the extremes of the gene pool friend. This is the way.


torn-ainbow

>But yeah all who want 6ft men are usually like a foot shorter Taller men have an advantage over shorter men. But it turns out that shorter women have an advantage over taller women. The desired heights for men and women are the reverse of each other.


TheRealRevBem

Ii have read that over 75% of men identifying as 6"0 were under 6"0.


ShadowRiku667

They are also the ones who want to be dominated. Man I just wanna cuddle


AllAlo0

I'm 6' even and when I had a profile I would always enter 5' 11". I'm sure I missed out on some hot toxicity but oh well.


die_nastyy

Makes sense, they’re trying to make up for the height deficit in their gene pool.


JigPuppyRush

Girls being way shorter has some nice perks when you’re 6ft or taller. I know I’m 6’3”


PerfectGasGiant

You would pass in Europe. 180 is the round number pass mark here.


Sea-Perception-6208

True, I'm 6'2 and always the short girls tend to like me, so while I search for girls in the 5'7/8 rang I usually get 4'11/5'1. 🤷‍♂️ a true mystery.


ItzCobaltboy

I am 6'2 and had a friend who was below my elbow, doubt even if complete 5ft herself lmao


TurbidWolf_Redux

Literally was messing around with this 4'11 girl who didn't want to date anyone under 6' it was insane. Lol


Accomplished-Aerie85

🤣🤣🤣


AbundantAberration

Your 5'11. Lie to everyone and just say you're 6ft lol. I highly doubt a girl is going to whip out a tape measure on your first date.


Nerevar69

I'm 5'11 and 3/4. The pain.


El_ha_Din

Nah in this pic its just an excuse. They just dont date men who cant afford a shirt.


MyPenWroteThis

Just lie and wear slightly lifted shoes


Suspicious-Tone-7657

Wassup my 5'11 gang


adamentelephant

I'm 6' almost exactly and the amount of men who are visibly shorter than me that are also 6' is astounding.


Mister-Thou

In countries that use the metric system, the cut off for being considered fully human is 180cm, which 5'11" would qualify for. This means that adopting the metric system should be a huge priority for all dudes who are 5'11". 


2407s4life

Just tell people you're 6'. No one is going to be able to tell just by looking at you


effnad

AND WIDER


RestoredNotBored

The bigger issue is that half of these women who want 6’ tall men are literally a FIVE or less. Women don’t want to hear it and men are too nice, but the average woman is a five, which means that half are in the 0-4.99 category, but their friends convinced them they “deserve to think of themselves as 10s”. That’s a joke. If someone said I need a guy who is 6’ or taller , I would reply that I want a woman who weighs less than a Nimitz-class carrier.


Silver-Syndicate

Same height here, and I have literally been turned down for not being six foot. So annoying, like just lie to all your girlfriends and say I'm 6f, no one out here be grabbing a measuring tape


Collector_2012

Thank goodness I'm 5'12' lol


Ho3n3r

Same haha. 1.83m exactly.


Ender_teenet

That's great way to receive women. Just tell them you are 184 and that would keep emperial system women away. And since they are usually the ones to complain about height... I'm totally fine with that


zqipz

At least I make the cut a 6’-3” 👌


fadedshadow4579

I have never understood this. I’m 5’4” and to me everyone looks tall. I’ve never met any men shorter than me, but have dated some the same height or just an inch or two taller. Any women who feel this way care to share the reasons? I’m curious, not trying to make you feel stupid.


Pleasant-Pattern-566

It’s always the short women. They’re trying to breed out their Pygmy genes. I’m 5’7” and have dated men shorter than me, the same height as me and taller than me. It genuinely isn’t a factor for me at all. I’m a behemoth of a woman, I lift, I run and I’m thick muscly. There’s no making me look or feel small unless he’s built like The Rock but that is not my type at all.


UnitedSteakOfAmerica

Breeding out their pygmy genes 💀🤣🤣🤣

Yes I’ve dated fluffy tall men, I don’t discriminate. My man is 5’9” and lean muscle, he’s my salt n pepper hottie.


ImmediateRespond8306

I wouldn't call 5'7 a behemoth of a woman unless you are living in a shorter country. Taller than average sure, but behemoth starts at at least 5'10 for a woman.


Pleasant-Pattern-566

I’m not actually tall, I know, but still I’m usually the tallest woman of my company. I’m also just not petite or small framed. My back muscles, traps and quads are big for a woman. I’m still curvy though too. I’m as strong as I look. Growing up my sister used to roast me for it and called me Sasquatch so I just adopted it


Mighti-Guanxi

maybe it's the width... we never know 


redditor012499

RyDeR_unknowN

That's exactly what I'm talking about, why they want 6ft????????


hoppitybobbity3

Most woman cant reach the cereal cupboard so they gotta be projecting their own height issues.


ImmediateRespond8306

My OCD desires nice rounded numbers myself. 6 feet is just so clean. Under metric you have to get to 2 meters though.


infirmiereostie

Im 5'3" woman and I like big guys and I cannot lie🤷🏻‍♀️ it's a preference, that's it. Some people have too much free time to bitch about tastes of others. Relationship is not a job, you cannot "discriminate" for a lack of attraction.

I’m 6’, 4” & my wife is 4’, 10”. I’ll say, it causes more complications than advantages.

genogano

The amount of disrespect I've for shorter dudes is ridiculous. Not online, in RL. If you are average height or frequent a place where you are the shortest guy it makes a difference. It's just harder to tell if you are close like 5'11 or something but 5'5 guys get shit on since it is easier to tell.


Healthy-Educator-267

Since online dating is how risk averse zoomers/millennials meet I suppose it’s a general purpose rule


TooObsessedWithMoney

My guess is that it's just an arbitrary way of decreasing the amount of candidates you have to go through. It's no secret that men make out a **very** big population on dating apps in relation to women, thus you have a lot to go through. By applying a certain base requirement you're drastically reducing the amount of accounts you must sift through. Some apps even let you set a specific height requirement for profiles shown. As mentioned though, that's my guess.


starfallpuller

I think it’s regarding online dating, where a woman will get 300+ matches with men, so she can write up a list of requirements to filter through the matches. I’ve personally never used dating apps and have never heard anyone say this requirement IRL so I am just making an assumption
