I do find taller girls intimidating. Though that's probably because I'm not very tall myself.

I dunno mate, I'd find a girl that is taller than me w/o heals intimidating, because I AM tall :s-smilie:

I haven't got a problem with tall women but I hate heels. Not sure why - I think it's probably for some strange ultra feminist reason about it being all about pleasing men.

Heels are there to give the impress that the girls' legs are longer. As girls mature, for the majority, their hips, thighs and legs in general widen. By putting heels on, it gives women back the appearance of youthful teenage legs.

Anyway, that's what I heard. It could be a load of rubbish.

i'm kinda intimidated by very very taller girls, cus I'm short, 5ft 7. When i go to a club it sucks that most girl are taller than me, I probably wouldn't mind dating a girl 1or2 inches taller me, but any higher than that would look strange.

If your height is holding you back, don't wear heels. It's not exactly Fermat's last ****ing theorem, is it?

Harsh. But. Fair. :yy:

Why is this such a big deal?

It'll will always be some tall girl expounding on the fact that she can wear heels if she ****ing wants to, and some guys saying that long legs FTW, some guys saying that they prefer someone shorter, some tall girl feeling bad for being tall, a short girl saying that she likes her height, and another short girl saying that really she'd like to be taller, because her legs would look oh-so-much better in short skirts.

There's all the variety, folks.

Honestly, I've never had men not hit on me in clubs and I'm 5'11" and wear heels occasionally. So, I wouldn't blame height.

They can be, at times..

I love tall women.

Yeah, my bf's around your height, and I'm 5'9. I only wear heels when he pisses me off. Or when I'm going out with friends only. Meh, it's all ******** anyway, this height business, I don't get what the big deal is. Anyway, I respect his feelings (mostly) and don't wear them, but I personally don't care.

Anyway, OP, who cares if they find you intimidating? If you're attractive, there will be some that don't care and hit on you anyway.

Again, I'm similar height to poster above me but I don't find tall women "intimidating." Instead, my reason is even worse because it lacks explanation. I can't even resolve it myself but I just don't think "it's right."

I'd still definitely flirt with a tall girl though.

Heels were designed for women not for young teenage girls though... but they still work on younger girls because long thin legs can look even longer. The hips thing and larger legs definitely accelerates after puberty. There are far more girls with large legs by 25 or 30 than at 16 for example. I reckon that a "woman", according to nature, isn't supposed to look like a 16-year old girl but our society has imposed the image of the slim girl with narrow hips and long thin legs so it's an eternal battle for the adult woman to achieve this ideal: either she has the "abnormal" genes to be a model or she has to rely on artifice.
I don't understand women and the more you think you understand them, the more it becomes depressing. Sometimes it's best not to understand.
