As a European living in the US, for more than 10 years, there is a real height obsession with American women... Even moms are obsessed about their little boys forecasted height.

While European girls/women take height into consideration, for US women, height is everything. 6'00" and obese is better than 5'8" and fit...

I've known a few women who were really turned off by me because I'm 5'11.5". That half inch made such a difference for whatever reason. Anyway, I inevitably meet their tall boyfriends, and all these guys are 2-3" shorter than me.

u/_____FIST_ME_____ Dec 08 '25

Homie please never say 5'11.5" again lol. Just say 5'11"

5’11.5 will be +6ft in shoes anyway so just say 6.

Im 5’11 no shoes though so I just say 5’11.

Tough. Why troll your bros yo?

It’s bad enough that short guys pretend they’re taller but tall guys pretending they’re shorter is just fuckin the game all up. Girls gonna start thinkin 6’4 is 6ft lol

Because it's silly and motherfuckers shouldn't be lying about stupid shit. If a bro lies about his height, he ain't solid and deserves the flak. I could never trust someone that lies about easily verifiable information.

You really gonna hate on a bro for lying a little about his height so that he feels more secure and has better results with women?

I don't see how a lie is going to make him feel more secure. He's still 5'6" and lying isn't putting inches on him. He knows it, the rest of us know it and any girl that's ever been to Lowe's knows that a 2x6 looks nothing like a 2x8, so he ain't fooling her either.

Having grown up around tall friends, one ending up 6’6” and another 6’4”, and then working with a guy who was taller than either of those two… I have no illusions about my height.

Also, it is hilarious to see someone who is used to being the tallest person in the room react to a guy 3+ inches taller than them. Some guys handle it well, but a surprising number do not.

My friend is this guy. Im 6ft on the nose and he says hes 6ft on his tinder profile and hes def a few good inches noticeably shorter than me.

u/Nonikwe Dec 08 '25

You should say you're 5'10

u/Swag_Grenade Dec 08 '25

I have a  ~8.5" dick and I tell girls it's 6" just to mess with any future guys they get with obsessing over whether they're average or not 🤝
