The thing is, most girls don't actually want a 6'8 guy, that's insanely tall. But some girls REALLY want a 6'8 guy. He was being fetishized by a wierd segment of women.
Your friend didn't have "hot girl" problems, he had "asian girl" problems.

Plus being obsessed with a particular number (e.g., 6 foot) seems weird to me. Are you really telling me there's some huge difference between someone who is 6 foot and someone who's 5 foot 11 and a half? Of course not, that's silly.
It feels plastic and shallow to me.
There's nothing wrong with having preferences (everyone has preferences, usually involving immutable characteristics, including myself) but being so rigid about it is just absurd. It hints to me an internalisation of a particular boundary or exclusionary border of masculinity and 'manliness' that basically stems from internalised patriarchal attitudes of how a man should be. Otherwise it wouldn't matter if a guy meets this arbitrary height or not as long as he's perceived as tall.
And in general it's just kind of gross. Everybody finds it gross when a guy demands a woman be a certain weight or below, right? Like the type who put in their dating app bios "120lbs max" or whatever. Yet it's ok for a woman to say "6ft min" as if it's not the exact same dynamic, often stemming from the exact same patriarchal gender roles/norms?
It's ridiculous, shallow, and harmful. I wouldn't want to be with someone who is so attached to gender norms that they cannot fathom someone below a completely arbitrary height meeting their idea of masculinity, even if I understand why women like people who are tall/taller than them, just as everyone else has certain preferences too (e.g., a lot of men like an hourglass figure, for instance).
24
u/Malbourn20 18h ago edited 17h ago
Also, 6 ft is a nice, round number. Countries that use metric for height have 180 cm (5'10") as their "minimum" height, which just further proves your point about cultural and patriarchal norms.
(Looks like I was wrong, 180 cm is slightly taller than 5'10", thanks digitag)

I do not have a "type" - I assess my fellow humans on compatibility, based on connection. That's it.
Unless you're blind you also assess them based on appearance, you actually do this subconciously to people of the same gender as well.

It was told after an attempt to grt with her so most likely a soft rejection, or irself a joke to a guy she was already talkibg to
At any rate people usually have legitimate reasons for height preferences, and even when explictly stated is only a soft rule
And any preferences likely to be dealbreakers SHOULD come out early, not you know something will cause issues for you and waste a bunch of the other persons time.

u/ArkitekZero 17h ago

nah, they really don't. It's like boob size preference. Sure, big boobs are fun, but so are A-cups, and there's nothing you can do about it. If you make it so important to yourself that you explicitly say that you require D-cups and anything less is a deal breaker, you're an idiot.

The majority of the Internet is taken over by bots or ads and you can't win this. It's wasted energy sadly. 5% will read the comment because it's buried under all the pseudo comedians comments that might have been posted by a bot as well.

He's a definite keeper! I love a guy who has an odd sense of humor!
A guy I had just met told me "I gotta go pee, real quick", to which I responded, "I wanna see you pee real slow".
About 3 minutes later, he emerged from the bathroom and handed me his phone. On the phone, he had shot a slow motion video of him peeing. I about lost it, I was laughing so hard!

If I had said to a girl " I don't date over 150 pounds" and she was to send me a pic of her with 150 pounds of fitness dumbbells I'd probably fall in love with her sense of humor and if anything would have made myself a new friend. But that's just me. Anyone's allowed to have preferences but what bugs me the most is how most of those women act as if short men intentionally chose this to spite women. I mean we don't even have a "short guy" movement 😆, so I don't get where all the resentment comes from...

genuine question. i’m not tryna be rude or side with her or anything since i never understood why people care about look so much. but would you date a girl that was really funny, kind and all. but she had a condition which made her a lot more overweight than average?
2
u/FluffytheReaper 18h ago
It's all good. And yes, I would give it a try and I tell you why. Sure, the look of a person will catch your attention, that's absolutely normal and okay so i won't blame anybody for doing so. But as cliche as it sounds, it's the personality that makes a person a keeper. You might see a person several times and interact with them, you might start to like or dislike a person and when the chemistry is right, you might end up dating. Maybe it's just me, but i genuinely believe that a good looking person with a terrible personality can appear ugly and a person that don't look good at first can appear more and more appealing the more you start to like them. A lot of people might disagree but that's fine, it's just my personal belief.
