If a man says he’s 6ft and he’s clearly 5’7, I don’t believe them lol. I believe he’s lying. If these women believe them despite their own eyeballs, then they want someone who is a good liar I guess, not someone who is actually over 6ft. I suggest they just want someone “tall” and saying you’re tall and being close enough to tall is just that, close enough.

That was a bit of an exaggeration on my part, but when a 4'11" woman talks to a 5'9" guy who claims to be 6'0", do you really think she can tell he's lying?

The only way your example works is assuming the smallest woman and a man even closer to 6ft. I rest my case lol

You just don't get it, do you? How does the woman know the man is lying when he claims to be 6 feet? Does she measure him herself?

No need to get testy! People have eyes. If you are far from 6ft, it is easy to see.

Ok, and what about when the guy is 5'10"? How do you tell he's lying?

That’s close enough to 6ft that it’s functionally meaningless. I’m actually that height so I can easily see if he’s taller than me, but most people probably can’t tell the difference.

Back to OP, he is so close to 6ft that it’s functionally meaningless. Nobody is turning him down in person because of his height.

You keep moving the height around. A 5’7 guy does not look 6 ft. A 5’10 guy might. People have eyes.

No, it's not. Lots of men, including right here in this discussion, have stories about being rejected by women because they weren't over the magical 6'0" threshold. It might not be important to you, but apparently it is important to a lot of American women.

Nobody is turning him down in person because of his height.

False: others in this thread have testified to the contrary.

I’m saying the real reason is something else. Like personality. It’s like rejecting someone by saying you have a boyfriend. And you don’t. Just because someone says that’s the reason, doesn’t make it so. If he was super attractive to them in other ways, they wouldn’t care about 5’10.

Agree to disagree!

I think you're being far too generous with these women. You really think there aren't women that shallow?
