6ft (183 Cm) Master Race: Share Your Dating Success

[GreekGod_of_Aesthetics]

Guys who are 6 ft tall(182 - 184 cm), has your height ever hold you back in life? What is your dating success like? (both short-term hookups and long-term relationships opportunities)
Have women rejected you for your height?

Pros:

• good enough not to be called a manlet

Cons:

• so close to being tall, but not quite there. Especially in 2019, the age of lookism

Also, how did receding impact your success? Did height mattered more when you started losing your hair?

Decreased my dating success for sure, some rejections based on height. But no biggie, still went for pretty women of average and short height. Am tall and built for Asian standards, subsequently much more successful with Asian chicks.

Balding is a different beast though, no real success anymore since then.

@BananaBlunt I am not, and do not consider myself one. I will admit I got sucked into lookism 'philosophy' for the past year, it has altered my worldview and influenced me for the worst, to the point of depression. Been slowly making efforts to move away from that.
When I put myself out there in meeting women, I did have initial success.

Uhh.. enough, I'm outta here.

Who cares, it's a problem with the social media also, it's a problem with the feminists and with the incels who the f*** cares, most of us live in the real world, those studies mean nothing to me and my real life for example... And most people do it with their own hands, how could you not be single if half of your life is lived on the internet, it's clear where the problem is but nobody is doing nothing about it anyways... Good that people make studies out of tinder and other sh*t platforms when i for example haven't had a single relationship based over the internet, most of the girls i have met and had relationship with i found by GOING OUTSIDE in the f*****g REAL WORLD...

Most of the studies done this days are based on the basement dwellers that don't wash for weeks, months and never leave their house so they are equal to 0 for a normal human being... And the US is the biggest example for it, for me personally that country is the worst example of a society and of being a human in general, i used to love that country when i was young but as soon as i grew older i understood that it's very different from how it was presented in the movies, etc and i started to despise it very much even if i know that there are a lot of great people who live there, like in any other country!

Tough guy has it all figured out by himself. Hear hear.

Ohh so you just talk to them and if you end up in bed with them what are you gonna do, f*** them with the hat on and refuse to take it off ?

Haha, no, by then it doesn't matter, hat comes off. But my hair isn't too bad in the sense that I have more of a hat hair look when it comes off, so you don't really see the thinning. You would really just think it was hat hair. If you had a really scrutinizing eye, maybe hat hair with a little thinning, but in my mid thirties, what would you expect. So the hat servent that I am, doesn't really hurt me, much anyway.

Now mind you, I'd love to have a full head n only wear hats maybe 1/4 of the time. I was wearing before I even started to lose any.

I will say it must hurt some. I'm sure some girls think- oh he's balding under that hat, forget that- but what can you do.

There is no age of lookism. Incels don't mean a thing since they do not participate in the world where normal people live and date. It might seem like a big movement but that is just because they are very vocal online because online is all they have

Few people are self-identifying incels. It's mostly an outgroup rather than an ingroup term.
Just a new bogeyman/ buzzword of the month to justify one's own instinctive disdain for ugly people and losers. Most people would like to think that they are beyond these superficialities even though they are literally bred into us as social animals. So branding genetic or social losers as deeply immoral and potentially dangerous individuals serves to get rid of this cognitive dissonance.
At least that's one part of this so called phenomena.

5'10. My height hasn't hurt me, much. I do believe a few women have turned me down, but only because they generally over 5'9, which isn't very many. I am in pretty damn good shape, around 175lbs. A lot of woman think I'm handsome, but take that as you will.
.

Thanks for writing.
I very recently briefly dated a girl who's about 5'10 - 5 '11 in height, and I'm 6ft. So in my case, it did not matter that much.

 

[Ikarus]

im so short compared to everyone else lmao

 

[GreekGod_of_Aesthetics]

I read something on height that made sense a lot. It said something like: Being tall is not the ultimate cheat code in dating. But what it offers you is leverage. That the taller you are, the more your physical flaws, (that you might have) are forgiven.
Like balding, or a crooked nose, or a weak chin.
Some 5ft9 guy with X flaw might be rejected for it, while a 6ft1 guy with the same flaw will get a passover.

Omfg, another study, welcome to the world of studies where everybody lives in their basements never leaving their house...omfg

Haha, sounds about right.

I do think those rejection rate numbers are probably pretty close though, all things being equal.

 

[OldnBald]

• 8.1 A man's dating pool is set by his height; >94% of women will reject a man for being "too short"
• 8.2 Women are happiest with their partner's heights when they are 8.24" inches taller then them
• 8.3 Short men have twice the suicide rate of tall men
• 8.4 24% of men under 5'9" would undergo surgery costing 31% of their life savings to be taller
• 8.5 'Short man syndrome' is a myth - taller men are quicker to lose their tempers than short men
• 8.6 Taller men have more partners and father more children
• 8.7 Sperm banks require that men be at least 5'8" tall
• 8.8 The #1 most important thing to women in a man's online dating bio is if he says he is 6' tall
• 8.9 Taller men report more satisfaction in their romantic relationships than shorter men

Height is more important than hair. For me being 5'10, I kinda fall in the dead zone. I do feel like when I'm around tall guys in bar, that I CAN be overlooked, WHEN they are handsome, have all their hair, etc. But I'm so high on a lot of the other traits that I can make up for the lack of a few inches rather easily.

I think where this hurts most guys is when they're 5'7 n below. Even 5'8 on the button might be a problem.

@OldnBald That may look like when you don't approach at all
A 5'10 guy with good game and a reasonably attractive face will have much more success than a 6'2 lanklet with average face,

Man, I'm spending too much time on this forums, it's too early for me here.
Saw a friend's picture on Insta, he's NW1, but diffuse thinning at the top, it's gonna be brutal for him in a year or 2.

@Pigeon's, @GreekGod_of_Aesthetics's and @OldnBald's anthem:

"I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller..
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her.."

 

[Wisemiller]

You do know that the majority of men, in North America, are under 6ft tall right? Worldwide, the majority of men are even shorter....

This joke is, very played out. Part of being an incel I guess haha.

I wasn't speaking on any of that. Of course that all goes without saying.

Wasn't aware tbh

 

[justinbieberscombover]

I'm good with my height, face, etc. Just hair god damn it. N another inch to the Dick to break over 7 inches would be nice. Haha

I used to browse Lookism and all that weird incel sh*t regularly. sh*t always had me stressing that I wasn't good enough. When I finally quit that sh*t it took me almost 2 years to regain my self esteem. When I started getting back into the dating scene I basically had to relearn everything, it was a disaster lol, I felt like a monkey around humans.. had to teach myself how to get a date, how to behave around the girl that I'm dating, how to talk to her, what places to take her, etc. This is how far you are left behind when you waste a lot of time drowning in self pity on toxic Internet communities, it's just horrible.

I finally stopped worrying about my hair so much once I hit nearly a year into my 2nd transplant. which means that I had a pretty satisfying result I guess, hah. The only exception is selfies under a very bright light and an over the head angle, which I try to avoid.

The girls were still attracted to me when they saw me irl and said that I look exactly like the pics, despite all the hair problems, which really helped my confidence a lot. I've been dating mostly 6/10's and I think that I was always the attractive one, so I guess I'm like a 7/10. Online dating has been harsh and I just never get to date girls above my looks level, rarely even my equals. A lot of the girls look better in the pics than irl, which results in a lot of disappointments, but I still have faith.

Keep in mind that I'm from a small and slightly conservative place though.. if I lived in some major city, I'd probably be smashing b****s left and right (already tried Tinder Gold and had decent results).

Finally gonna start a new job in a big corporation next week, expecting to meet new girls in there.

At this point all I want is to maximize my sexual function, it'll give me a peace of mind and I can handle the rest of my issues, so I'm not on finasteride and I'm currently in the process of quitting Lexapro.
