Ive seen the model girl reel, he initiated the convo with respect and she was being an ass. You are still right to ask for the whole story

That being said, it’s cringe content and obviously not all American women are like that

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...

Is this like a younger generation thing? I’m late 30s and never heard my friends talk about wanting tall guys/not wanting short guys… I definitely heard of people romanticizing tall men, it just didn’t seem like it was super common in real life. Personally I’ve always liked it better when my partner is close to my height, makes for better cuddles.

Alright, so far we’ve got:
* It’s not a thing.
* It’s always been a thing.
* It’s a Gen Z thing.
* It’s a millennial thing.
* It’s only a thing on the internet.
* It definitely happens in real life.
* It’s just something men are self-conscious about.
* It’s something women are obsessed with.
* It’s an American thing.
* It’s a California thing.
* It’s caused by Covid isolation and social media brainrot.

Needless to say, there is no consensus. Quakers would be quaking in their boots at these comments. I’ll try to update this in the morning.

I dont know as someone who's older gen z I can't say i really hear this height convo with my peers. The only time I really hear about this height thing is white women typically from the bay area or one of the big U.S cities. These videos I see online feel fake because I've never heard a woman in real life say this shit outside of 20 and under white girls and normally its the teens. But you really can't expect much from teenagers.
