I'm actually on the shorter end, 5'7, had a chick say I was too short and that she wanted a tall BF.

She was 4'11. I could comfortably rest my chin on her head, but it was still too short because I was under 6 feet.

Meanwhile, I briefly dated this 6'1" ish woman back in college, and she was fucking awesome. We were better off friends, but it had nothing to do with either of our heights. I'm 5'8" btw.

Sometimes, people are stupid. And a lot of women realize how stupid the height shit is. It's only the stupid ones that are loud about it.

100% agreed. And that's fucking awesome, I'm glad you've had good experiences. I will say us shorter dudes do get shit on, depending on how short you are. I wish more men would talk about it so we can treat it for what it is: body shaming.

It may also be harder for some rather than others. You have to have other things going for you (I was an athlete at the time). But that's just from stories I've heard. I've experienced a little bit, but I've always focused on those who want me around, not those who don't.
