that's not true. I know many women who married men shorter than them and in their eyes they are perfect for each other. because if your LOVE is perfect...then personality, height blah blah etc will follow after it

if you love someone for their persona...everything else will soon suit too...

but yes, people have individual preferences too and some women actually LIKE short men just like some like tall ones.

stop using the wrong words...you're not gonna get far with women saying things like that! :smack:

Men are the mehram of their wives/daughters/sisters/mums etc

so they are to be their protectors/maintainers/supporters etc

so some men (not all) feel that if they are 'bigger' than their wife..they will feel MORE of a protector and feel like they're fulfilling their role better

and for same reason, some women prefer their husbands to be taller

yeah @ men thing. because again, with the whole 'protector' status some men like to have, they say that tall women would overshadow their mehram-man-like status :wacko:

abit crazy but thats some men for you!!!
