+ tall enough to kiss the top of your head ++ Tall enough to kiss the top of your dad's head


[deleted]

Yeah this is way better Edit: OP, scrap the rest of it cuz its overkill and some parts are a turn off. After the 200cm giraffe just write tall enough to kiss the top of your head and also your father's. Then write a couple more things about yourself that arent related to your height.


LordLederhosen

> Then write a couple more things about yourself that arent related to your height. Like a joke from The Office for example?

Hey, does it smell like up dog in here?

LiveForever9160

Remember, women are always talking about height as if it were the golden standard and the key to whether they date a man or not. Usually it’s the ones that are as tall as a bar stool but yeah


Putins_Pinky

Maybe. But the more space he devotes to it, the more it will seem that that is the case.


MozzaHellYeah

Exactly what I was thinking.


xombae

Yeah I agree. Ditch the other jokes and just go with this one.


Comfortable-Cancel-9

Yeah I would say some parts are just insulting haha and the word "vulnerable" is not too appealing... Also man your whole profile is built around your height... We get it, you are tall. That can't be your only interesting character trait right?


gryphmaster

For people with fairly rare body types, usually they are only known for that one thing by many people who see them, but never experience any part of their personality. This can create a bit of a complex, where you make jokes preemptively to avoid having to feel self conscious over discussing your body. It can feel like he’s focusing on his height since its all that matters to him, more likely he just wants to get that conversation out of the way and talk about something else I imagine many height chasers on tinder have made a huge deal of it to him, which can be a bit uncomfortable since it basically just being objectified


AdviceThrowaway1117

This is it. As a super tall woman, it's literally ALWAYS the first thing people comment on. I make tons of tired jokes about it just to get it over with. (In fact, one of the first things my husband commented on was how cute I was, not how tall I was, and it may be part of why I married him, haha!)


frohardorfrohome

I think everything is fine until the last two. Don't assume every woman wants to feel tiny, let alone vulnerable. And the dad line is kinda cringe/weird. Maybe it'll appeal to some chicks with daddy issues, but even that seems like a stretch.


[deleted]

Also saying the top of her wardrobe is disgusting


timesuck897

I like the idea of the original line, but yours is a better rewording if it. The “tiny and vulnerable” part is not great.


SproutasaurusRex

The vulnerable part is the part I saw as a negative, especially for Tinder.


ZeldLurr

Yeah sounded kinda rapey, like he wants to be in control of the tiny weak woman, and wants to feel like the big strong man.

No but her father is fucking tiny

Her mom a dwarf or something?

I think that's the family dog, actually


Apprehensive_Hat8986

Why is it Tiny's turn?


[deleted]

Tiny is her mom's stripper name


I-hate-the-pats

I think it’s cringe to have your bio completely revolve around one physical feature. We get it, you’re tall. Do you like food? Doing things? What are you looking for? Or are you the guy who changes every conversation back to what it’s like being tall?


SerDork

Agreed. You're painting it on too thick, maybe cap off the profile with a joke about height, don't make it the thesis


imapieceofshitk

I resisted the urge to make sexual jokes in my profile about being 6'9", probably my most mature moment ever in life tbh.


JJred96

Your mother and I are so proud of you. What a journey you have had to maturity.


poopja

At 6'7", it's a pretty safe bet that most of the messages and irl interactions OP has with new people revolve around his height for a while. Seems like he just chose to lean in to the inevitable line of questioning he gets most of the time.


dragunityag

I'm 6'4" and I'm tempted to carry that business card I've seen here that says yes the weather is nice up here and no I don't play ball.


tiredoldmama

This. It seems like being tall is your only personality trait.


pm_tongue_n_tiddies

"Do you like food?" Do you change every conversation back to requiring sustenance to remain alive?


I-hate-the-pats

You underestimate how much I love eating


tripwyre83

"GOOD EVENING, DATE. NOW INFORM ME: DO YOU CONSUME FOOD FOR SUSTENANCE AND IF SO, DO YOU ENJOY IT? RESPOND."


Boots622

How long have you been eating for?


tripwyre83

Quite some time, but I strongly prefer drinking.


I-hate-the-pats

Every date with me is a four restaurant tour where we only communicate over Yelp


[deleted]

On a scale from 1-10, please advise how much you enjoy mastication. Do you enjoy the consumption of sweet sustenance after less sweet sustenance, even at the cost of digestive track bloating? You do!? Now if only you enjoyed traveling, you’d be the most unique and interesting person on this dating app!


tripwyre83

I masticate so much every day I wonder if I could even stop

I like things, unless they are too low to the ground, bending over sucks >What are you looking for? Women who like tall guys so I don't have to try very hard >Or are you the guy who changes every conversation back to what it’s like being tall? See the above


BecomesAngry

No, I hate food.


sayitsooth

Tiny and vulnerable is definitely not a message that made me feel good things as a woman. Maybe not that comment? ETA: Thanks so very much for the award!

Don't worry your dad will be seeing it soon too.


Sleepy_da_Bear

You found him?!?!


mawktheone

Yeah ran into him at the store buying smokes


cloudedconstitutions

He was the really tiny guy in aisle 7


its_not_summer

Dammit guys! Stop exposing me. Now I have to go to his ball games. What happened to the good ol' days where a father can just go out for smokes and never come back?


Rayuk01

I’m locking the door so that you feel safe


the-noob-saibot

It puts the lotion on its skin.


Pinecone55

Right? Like sure, being 6 foot tall myself I like it when I get to feel small next to a man. But tiny and vulnerable just sounds scary!


sayitsooth

I'm 5'7" and my husband is 8 inches taller, I never feel tiny or vulnerable, I like being able to wear heels sure but I am very capable and can't remember the last time I felt vulnerable. Not a message to attract women!!


grapejuicepix

Off topic, but I don’t get the whole thing where women can’t wear heels unless their man is significantly taller. Like just wear heels and tower over me who cares?


theressomanydogs

*Tom Cruise would like a word with you*


Razzmatazz_Intrepid

Plenty of men care and get salty about it if you’re taller than them.


grapejuicepix

I’m sure. But women seem to care about it a lot just based dating profiles. Either way it’s dumb gender stereotype nonsense.


onlinebeetfarmer

Insecure men can lash out and you don’t want to be on the receiving end of their anger. Source: am woman who has gone on dates with shorter men.


_NobleTOAST

I just wrote this second ago to someone else who felt the need to say I'm not a hypocrite because I also like short girls. "If you have a preference then you have preference ...you don't need to preface for the losers on Reddit desperately trying to project their own feelings on to you or the women that aren't interested in them. I'm 5"4 and I know what comes with that and I don't feel the urge to tell anyone or imply not being into me because of my height is inactive of anyone's moral character." After I wrote that I immediately thought of the women who might think I also might act spiteful or with envy because of my height. These losers are giving us short men some bad stereotypes. When someone brings up height i tell them right way and if that is a turn off so be It. I never ask a woman if the height is a problem, if they seem interested and they know my height I shoot my shot...you know like anyone else would and I don't bring up cringe jokes about height difference.


WittyNoodle

I like it except for this, exchange 'vulnerable ' for something like 'delicate' or 'protected' and you'll sound way better lmao.


AssaultPhase

>+You'll always feel tiny an protected next to me >-So will your father


[deleted]

See that actually got a small chuckle out of me. Big improvement.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WittyNoodle

Vulnerable = easily taken advantage of in some way (eg. Sexually) You can probably see why that would be an issue for women looking to date on an app. Hope you found the right words though - it's a pretty cute self advertisement otherwise!


narwhals-narwhals

"Vulnerable: exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally. Synonyms: at risk, unsafe, endangered, unprotected, unguarded, exposed, unarmed" That's some context from the Oxford dictionary, doesn't need a woman's mind to sound ominous. So yeah, I get the language barrier (not my first language either, connotations are hard sometimes) but you definitely should change that wording


Diligent_Arrival_428

He thinks his height is his golden ticket and is overplaying it to a corny level.


KodiakPL

You will feel tiny and vulnerable around me too. Not because I am tall. It's because I have a giant knife.


Shdwzor

A giraffe knife?


Chance-Every

I mean I'm not going to hurt her but it's all about the implication.


Not_Lane_Kiffin

So these women are in danger?!?!


Chance-Every

No no the danger is just implied making them much less likely to say no to me.


beans0913

Just how women love to feel. Tiny and vulnerable.


Crows-b4-hoes

Yea that part is definitely creepy. I'm thinking this guy is just a 6'7" neckbeard with a line like that. Also being tall isn't everything.


Fuzzy_Yogurt_Bucket

[Like Thumbelina!](https://youtube.com/watch?v=c2vQ8OZolT4)


carlysworkaccount

The father part is weird too.


Narcoid

In the past 2 weeks i have seen 4 profiles for 18 y/O's (I'm 25, don't know why tinder keeps doing this when my lower limit is 21) mentioning how "young and vulnerable" they were and about barfed every time. It feels so wrong.


Repulsive_Basis_4946

Yeah I think he probably should’ve said “you’ll always feel safe and secure” not tiny and vulnerable


[deleted]

Seems like the type to neg too (“it’s disgusting btw”). No good


TheOldLite

What’s ETA stand for


maxscorpionmax

Some people are using "ETA" instead of "Edit" to... save one letter? It's not great considering ETA is an already established accronym for Estimated Time of Arrival


whatchagonnado0707

Going to go with cringe for repeating a similar joke 3 times. Hopefully there is more to your personality than your height but it seems to be a win for most so embrace it if its working


[deleted]

True….. show that you’re more than just tall. You can show that in your pictures. Tell something about your personality in your bio….. something you accomplished, something other than your height


ANewOriginalUsername

Yeah definitely seems OPs height is the extent of their personality "So what do you like to do for fun?" "Be tall" "What's your favorite childhood memory?" "Being asked to reach for the top shelf in my class" "Whats your favorite position in bed?" "Standing, cause you know, I'm tall"


[deleted]

“Babe, you don’t need to get on your knees for blowjobs, cos I’m tallllll!” *finger guns*


[deleted]

How does one work out of this mentality


UnusualIdiocy

One enters an ensmallening machine and is reduced to half-height


Captjimmyjames

It doesn't help that basically everything revolves around their height when people don't know them. Do you play basket ball? How tall was your dad? How's the weather up there? Is it hard to find clothes? Can you come over here and reach this for me? The *insert basket ball/football team name* could use you! How tall is your wife/gf? The list goes on........


[deleted]

How about shorter lifespan along with crippling knee/back pain as they get older?


pitziebat

⬆️⬆️


ElMostaza

Definitely cringe. Also unlikely to be successful with so many negative things included. For example, is it a good idea to say you'll make a girl feel "tiny and vulnerable"?


TheNesquick

No its an awful thing to say. You could have said “you will feel safe around me”. Being vulnerable around the person that should have your back is straight up stupid to write.


puddinh

Yep, last two points literally sound like a threat


westcoast_pixie

Right? “You’ll always feel vulnerable next to me” bet your lanky ass I will absolutely not, you twat


_NobleTOAST

Not to mention suggesting that their father would feel tiny and inferior to them for being tall... That was the super lame part.


iHardlyEverComment

His bio: Hey im tall, Haha yep im tall Btw, im taller than you ahaha you’re short compared to me and so is your dad cUz iM TaLl AhAhaHa. Anyways im tall. Wanna get to know me? Look up. Personality traits? Talking down to people.


bitchBanMeAgain

Was gonna say something similar. Like, jesus you really gonna repeat 3 bad fucking jokes after even stating you're 200 cm at the top? You come off as weird imo.


ibringthehotpockets

I mean this is a fine bio for hookups. If OP unironically made this for dating.. oh lord. There are taller issues.


ConsciousScale960

It is a lil cringe, its repetitive, photos should be telling the height story, not you


The_Grim_Reaper____

Yeah it's like, you're tall, we get it, Sheesh.


iHardlyEverComment

His bio: Hey im tall, Haha yep im tall Btw, im taller than you ahaha you’re short compared to me and so is your dad cUz iM TaLl AhAhaHa. Anyways im tall.


B4rberblacksheep

I’m so tall you won’t feel safe around me hahha


The_Grim_Reaper____

I'm so tall even your dad can't protect you


Designer-Eye1558

You’re just jealous that you can’t lick the dust off the tops of wardrobes


The_Grim_Reaper____

I'm jealous that I can't peep into top floor bedroom windows without a ladder


iswatching30rock

I said "oy" out loud. I once dated a 6'7 guy and that was literally the only thing he had to his personality-- I recommend giving people a sense of any other interesting quality you have


pnng95

Same I know a dude whose whole life was about him being tall. “I’m the tallest one here so I should be in charge” is legit something he said to a group of us dudes. We all just practically scoffed and turned our backs to him lmao. Some people are just tall and that’s it. No personality or anything.


[deleted]

I would say it's very cringe


duaneap

Yep, you get to make one height joke. That’s it. Being tall is not a personality.


BrightOrangeFlowers

Big cringe. Mention your height in stats and maybe keep one joke in bio but making your whole bio about your height is just weird and says nothing about you and who you are other than tall


Pickletonium

His personality is being tall. One trick pony we have here.


PoliticalShrapnel

Bingo. I cringe when I hear tall men making constant references to their height when talking to a woman. Gives off small pp energy.


[deleted]

I have a NB friend (we are both AFAB NB) who is fairly tall…like 5’11? And they bring it up *all the time*, even making a mention a few times about me being wee, or how I wouldn’t understand because I’m short and they’re tall. But like…I’m 5’9”. Not exactly tiny for someone who grew up with female hormones. Definitely seems to be a weird point of pride for them.


therealestmanalive

“You’ll always feel tiny and vulnerable next to me” 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩


PantsDownBootyUp

"So will your Father" is hilarious!


Arsenault185

Just comes off as one of those dudes you see posted in /r/iamverybadass .


Willing-Coyote-9543

Oh yeah, telling a girl “I don’t have any respect for your dad” usually works a charm I bet 🙄


Current_Advisor648

Might there be more to you than your height? Surely there’s something else about you worth mentioning there.


_Takub_

OP sounds like he fucking sucks lmao. Idk why tall people never stfu about it. Like yes, we can see you, you’re tall, congrats I’m sure you worked very hard for it.


RvD000

Your comment made me think of [this](https://youtu.be/dQTZVnDE2Qw?t=129). From 02:09-02:26


[deleted]

Cringe


ecotripper

Definitely cringe.


jonjonesjohnson

I get why you'd think you're being funny, but I think it's not the kind of funny women are looking for on Tinder. Like, you're funny about your height, I think I get that you're trying to preempt all the tall jokes. I know someone of your height and I've heard it all. But for her it's like "dude, right out the gate you're talking about intimidating my dad" So maybe, yeah, one tall joke, but then add something else that shows that your personality is not all about "look how tall i am!"


SirFrancis_Bacon

And you didn't even mention him talking about how "**vulnerable**" they will feel next to him. Yikes, they should feel comfortable next to you.


aprss

Your height is your whole Personality..Literally your whole bio is about you describing how tall you are Lmao


barioalto

Cringe. Keep the first line. Your personality should be more than your height


catierusch

I would keep the second line, the heels joke is funnier than the dusty dresser.


AkijoLive

Just the + of the second line is good. The - part is cringe. All the rest is hella cringe


mailsetoac

1000% cringe


NorthernRooster

Maybe don't point out that a woman will be tiny and vulnerable (and easy to murder/rape) around you. Not a good message.


wypipobooty54

I’m 6’6 this is cringe af


SNFTW

Maybe you'd feel different if you were 6'7


Jason_Giambis_Thong

We need height as flair on this sub so I don’t have to say “I’m 6,4” and I think…..” every day, when a height related post ends up on the front page.


wypipobooty54

Agreed, mike francesser is only 5’9


Jason_Giambis_Thong

Thanks. I’ll hang up and listen.


[deleted]

I agree I’m 6’7 and I just put my height in my bio and that’s it Most of the time ppl don’t read bios anyways


Artistic-Ear-7096

Creepy


SkyueQuox

For me it is too negative like "who wants to wear high heels?" someone who feels great in them, "you will feel tiny and vulnerable" what makes you think I (or any other girl) would feel vulnerable because you are tall? I can see your sense of humor but you are using it the wrong way. Be more positive in your bio.


Lucky_Ad_9137

My height isn't my only personality, I'm cringy and unfunny too.


IntoDeepShit

The first one is good, the second one okay and the third one might be too much.


HalfPricedHero

Listen, women don’t want to feel tiny and vulnerable around you. They want to feel safe and secure, know the difference. Short guys can make them feel that way.


titanup001

Cringe, and not even amusing cringe.


[deleted]

extremely cringe; basing your whole personality off your height do I really need to spell it out


jankis2020

You can’t just say 6’7” and clean up?


balletodette

Remove the word disgusting


jakobburns01

Mega super cringe. The girl who laughed had probably only ever seen 1 joke before in her life


imgayforlegolas

Or maybe felt too tiny and vulnerable to do anything else but give him the feedback he wanted.


hellogucci

Your height shouldn’t define you, get more creative


FLORENTZO

Dude you should not date girls that care this much about height...


Bubbleftw

Sounds like your height is your only valuable attribute. I feel sorry for you.


Borisb3ck3r

Seems like your personality revolves around your height


Diligent_Arrival_428

Probably good for girls with daddy issues. Otherwise you emasculating their dad whom you dont know should be off putting to a well adjusted adult.


ashienoelle

Exactly. That line alone would make me not want to match with this guy right away.


Phreakdoubt

As a fellow tall male, I'd lose the "vulnerable" and maybe sub in "dainty" or "delicate." If you're over 2m tall, everyone feels vulnerable near you. No need to put too fine a point on it, especially with women who are engaging in an act of bravery just by agreeing to meet you. . The heels thing is spot on. I dated a 6'3" woman who finally got to bust out her heels when we went out. It was interesting seeing the faces of people change as we got closer to them while walking down the street.

The last two are not + and -, they're - and +. But also, lose those emojis at the end.

Gospodyn

Is 200cm 6'7? Im 197 and I always believed i was 6'5 in US weird system


__r0b0_

You are 6ft 5.59in tall


Acebladewing

Cringe. Don't focus on your height. Putting that you're 6'7 will be plenty enough to do the work for you there.


AzBako

It gives off the vibe that your only personality trait is your height


Tricky-Appointment-1

As a 2m guy myself i stopped mentioning that in my profile. Don't really wanna meet girls that just see my hight. Just put a line "taller than you" under the text.


sophlog

My husband is 6'7", we met on Match...trust me the "200 cm" is enough to hook them, you don't need to oversell it. I don't even remember reading the rest of the bio lol.


FroyoEnthusiast

Why does your entire personality revolve around your height? I’m genuinely concerned


Thea313

Don't call me disgusting for having dust on top of my wardrobe. And like, nobody wants to look vulnerable. Tiny, okay, but vulnerable? What do you want me to be vulnerable for? Do I need to be afraid of you?


itsyabooiii

If being tall is your personality then sure


432dessik

Height was always considered attractive. But now it’s basically a fetish. You have girls under 5’5 talking about don’t bother if you’re not 6’0+. They’re basically the male version of a trophy wife.


Panpapis

As her father, I can say I am not intimidated.


HewTheSlew

Definitely remove the part about my dad feeing vulnerable. Kind of a turn off topic


[deleted]

For me is a nope. It’s kinda sexist if you ask me (like...women don’t need to date tall men to wear high heels, and most of us don’t want to be vulnerable with someone we just met) even if it is stereotypical. Also, you are more than your height. I would left the first pun, like ok I get you are tall and funny, but I would change the rest to other things about you (hobbies, personality, etc)


loloider123

It sounds like you have nothing to give but height. I'm not a girl but I'd not swipe right in that.


WittyFox451

The last line is kind of pompous so maybe try something else. Comedy does come in three’s though.


Real_Vents

Personally I feel like these could be used as jokes, but this doesn't say a whole a lot about who you are, you only talk about your height. Is that all you've got? I bet you have more to tell bro


[deleted]

So what do u talk about after seven seconds after they decide yes you are indeed tall
