JayB Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I'd also be willing to postulate that if you were to disclose your identity, and that you are at least average looking, you'd never be short of a date again ever in your life. All things being equal, and you can either choose between two completely identical versions of the same guy - one of whom is at least your height, and one is 5'4", you'd just as soon flip a coin as make the choice yourself? Actually, Jay, most short guys, like most tall guys, want to date women shorter than themselves. Take a look at the personals sometime---you'll find a gazillion men in search of a "petite" woman and maybe one looking for a tall one. And that dude will be 6'5". Again, that's just the way it is. And sure, all other things being equal, tall is nice, but all other things are never equal, so I don't worry about it. Well, of course things are never equal, but when you limit your answers to real scenarios sort of defeats the purpose of the exercise. No fun! This has definitely been an interesting thread. As things stand, my wife makes a bit more than I do now, but in around three years she'll be making three or four times the maximum salary that I could reasonably hope to achieve unless I change careers. The paradoxical thing about my marriage is that while I'm confident that if my foremost goal in life was to be wealthy, I could have gone down the typical path that leads to a position as an equity analyst or in investment banking - but I'm equally confident that if aquiring acquiring wealth was the central focus of my life, my wife would not have been interested me. Not sure what would have happened if I said that I was persuing a GED and ringing-up McValue meals when we met... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexual_chocolate Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 When I was really short, the older ladies were way more into me than they seem to be now. I mean, they'd even let me rub their feet under the table and shit. If I tried that now when I'm tall, I'd get nail-filed. And at that time, I definitely preferred older taller women, so it worked out fine. Definitely an exception to the "rules" you guys and gals are talking about.

sexual_chocolate Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 My mom was pretty hip in her gogo boots and all, but I highly doubt she cavorted with cross-dressers (unless they were able to fool even her discerning eye). Plus, even though I was short, I probably would have been able to tell the difference; men's feet under the table? Pretty yucky, and an image I'd rather not entertain....

Dru Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 On the contrary, it's probably an image you have entertained repeatedly while moondancing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexual_chocolate Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Dude, why on earth would you equate the beauty of Moondancing with homosexuality? Yes, the queer eye is a discerning eye, most able to notice refinement, but indeed the (graduated) straight man can enjoy the finer things in life too!

sexual_chocolate Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 You obviously have no understanding of Moondancing.

Gary_Yngve Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I broke up with a girl because she wasn't good enough at math She didn't like to practice multiplication? That reminds me of the joke about how Noah gathered all pairs of animals onto the Ark, and after the floods ended, he told all the animals to multiply. The two adder snakes said we can't multiply, only add, so Noah asked God what to do. God told Noah to chop down some trees and make a table for the adders. Noah did as told, built a log table, and the adders multiplied happily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selkirk Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 One time I broke up with a girl because she wasn't good enough at math. Or at least that was one of the tangible excuses I had for the intangible "not feeling attracted to her anymore." Thanks Gary! You make me feel like less of a geek today!

Gary_Yngve Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Suppose guys are mean 5'10", stddev 2", and gals are 5'5", 2". The bottom 5% of men are shorter than the top 5% of women. It makes sense that most guys will date shorter women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary_Yngve Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 haha Gary I'm sensing a trend here.... I'm not shallow! There's more to a woman than being able to perform integral calculus or score high in a Scrabble game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
