My reading of your post is that you're tall but you don't want to believe that you have a significant advantage. Well bro, you have a significant advantage. It's not a guaranteed good life, but it goes a long way. What I know about you is that you're 6'2, white, you stopped your hairloss at NW2 or better, you're smart, young, and you have a good career. I assume that you do well with women. Perhaps not spectacularly so (I don't know) but I assume that you do well.
What I said in that post was that shorter men who are attractive have little problem getting with women.
I stand by this point: Height is icing on the cake and icing without a good cake is pretty sh*t.
Average and below average looking men will have a harder time but the hardline philosophy that is thrown around on the internet regarding this subject is that "if you're not six feet you're fucked" such that a woman would turn away a 5ft 8 guy that she likes just because some other random guy is 6ft. I don't believe that. I have never even seen that happen or heard of it happening from anyone I've known.
Further, online, any woman I have seen who is all "If you ain't six feet don't even talk to me!" wound up alone with her cats.
I do not believe that a 5'5 Ryan Reynolds would do well. I think that a bald Ryan Reynolds of his current height would crush the 5'5 Ryan Reynolds with hair, and would do so easily. In fairness, I do recall manliest doing well in high school and perhaps in the first year or two of university
I disagree. The guy would not be nearly as attractive without his hair.
I suspect even if left to anonymous poll of women, that results would show this. I think short with hair would win.
In fairness, I do recall manliest doing well in high school and perhaps in the first year or two of university, but by age 25 (let alone 30) women are far more turned on by raw masculine power.
What women SAY they want in real life, and certainly on dating profiles vs what they actually
do, are very different things.
Women might say they care or don't care or want or don't want but all that matters is watching what they actually do. How many women say they don't care about baldness?
I was at this store I frequent a few months ago and this one guy who works there, probably 20 at the oldest, not quite six feet but a boyband type none the less: I was listening to these two old women, like easily near 70, talking to him and gushing over him and telling him he's "handsome" and sh*t. Dude, two old ladies old enough to be his grandmother acting like a couple of college freshman w****s toward him! I just about turned around and said "why don't you just get it over with and suck him off already?"
I don't believe that women ever start being more or less into "raw masculine power"; they want the pretty boys, the ripped guys, the Chads at any age. Tall as well? Yeah
but any sane 5' 3" woman isn't going to turn away a 5' 8" attractive man for something that has no bearing on how he actually looks. She would do so over hair, though.
