I haven’t seen this mentioned elsewhere, but at least in my anecdotal experience women seeking taller men is another symptom of patriarchy being toxic to everybody.
When I was growing up the pressure on women was to be as thin as possible - in essence, take up as little space as possible. I love the body positivity movement for starting to change that mentality but for me the damage was done in my formative years and has never gone away. It has resulted in me being physically uncomfortable if I am the biggest person in the room. The taller/broader a guy, the smaller I am by comparison. It’s completely fucked up, I’m quite tall so there are LOTS of incredibly attractive men shorter/thinner than me but I could not have been comfortable dating any of them without a lot of therapy for myself first.
I never put anything like “nobody under 6ft” on a dating profile, though, so maybe I’m off-base.
I work for for a health insurance company that tries to be a market disruptor that brings prices down. I vote to put myself out of a job at every opportunity, and realize that if my company goes under my only skills are for evil.
Yeah I’m drunk right now, why do you ask?
