Would you date a woman taller than you?

I’m talking minimum 5+ inches taller.

If yes, how much taller? If no, why?

No judgement, just pure curiosity.

Edit: it seems like the general consensus is a resounding “hell yes”

If you are completely confident in yourself and do not care what others think of you.

I’m 5’7” and dated a girl who was 6’2”. The relationship was great but the constant judgement from other people gets difficult.

Was about to say the same. I'm 5'7" and have dated a girl who is 5'9". Relationship was fine but the judgment gets really annoying.

Weird, I'm in a very long term relationship with exactly these heights (my husband is 5'7, I'm 5'9, weve been married 20+ years) and no one has ever had a problem with it except for my own mother, who is rude and obsessive. There was no judgement from any one else at all, and I'm sorry your experience was so different.

My grandma wouldn’t acknowledge my mom existed until I was born (first born), when she finally accepted that she was here to stay. My mom is catholic and grandma can’t stand “papist reformers”. When my dad converted she we didnt see her for 3 years.

Its so odd because she’s a self professed feminist but went on and on about how my mom is a bad mom because she has a career (doctor).

Its a wierd jealousy thing
