Abstract

of modern dating that I have ever seen. I have a suspicion that the attack on men’s height by women may be a response to get at men because of some of the attacks from men on women’s weight. Look, I get it, the attacks that men did on women’s weight wasn’t right. And I suspect that since women may have felt body shamed concerning their weight, perhaps some women are using the height standard as a way to get back at men for such body shaming.</p><p id="8ffe">Only thing about that is, for one, it isn’t an exactly reaction, obviously, since they aren’t talking about overweight men. For two, generally speaking, weight can be helped where as height generally can’t really be. It can be lied about. There is apparently an expensive (as well as painful surgery) that can increase a person’s height, but that’s generally outside of the financial capability of a lot of people</p><figure id="79a0"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/1*[email protected]"><figcaption>Photo by Documerica on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p id="f8de">So how does this height preference cause women to do damage to themselves? Aside from overlooking (no pun intended) a lot of decent men in general, <b>they also make it harder for men to be tall enough</b>. This is because a lot of women tend to wear heels. Not just one or two-inch heels either, but even four and five inch heels. Yet they will say that they need a man to not only be taller than them naturally (if not 6 feet or close to it in general), but that those men <i>also</i> have to be taller than them when they wear heels.</p><p id="2e82">So it’s like they are making it harder for men to even meet their superficial requirements to begin with. If a man is 5’9, who is <i>generally</i> taller than a lot of women, yet a woman who is 5’6 or 5’7 insists on wearing 5-inch heels, obviously, that’s going to make it harder for men who are 5’9 to be taller than them when they themselves are wearing heels. And then you have the women who are short themselves who talk all of that stuff about men having to be at least 6 feet tall, so for some women, even just being taller than them isn’t enough.</p><figure id="6867"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/1*[email protected]"><figcaption>Photo by Christina Victoria Craft on Unsplash</figcaption></figure><p id="53a6">Now hey, if it comes in to style again where men can wear platform shoes or shoes that add a lot of inches to their height so that it at least gives men a fighting chance, fair enough.

Superficial women make dating harder for themselves

I want to talk about the three major ways in which superficial women make dating harder for themselves, which are looks, height, and money.

Looks

I have mentioned in another article that men aren’t meant to look good. Women are called the fairer sex for a reason. And it’s women, fortunately or unfortunately, that have been the sex more directed towards beauty and physical attractiveness in general, which includes different things such as makeup, hairstyles, and all sorts of stuff to enhance appearance. It has also been understood that, again, whether fortunately or unfortunately, men’s attractiveness or quality is supposed to be based more on either on what they can provide (no, not necessarily money) or their strength, mentality, internal qualities, and overall who they are.

A so-called good-looking man should, at best, be seen as a potential bonus, not a requirement. Don’t get me wrong, men should take care of themselves, and I think that appearance can be important in the sense that men look like they are clean (and are clean with good hygiene and stuff, obviously), and take care of themselves reasonably enough, so that they don’t look like some slob that just woke up out of the bed somewhere. That’s all well and good.

However, women who require men to look good (having handsome facial features, being tall, etc.), may be shooting themselves in the foot because, in my humble opinion, men aren’t necessarily designed to look good. Yes, I know I’m straight, but that doesn’t matter. Even so-called straight women know when another woman is hot and, apparently, even some so-called straight women get more turned on by lesbian porn than even straight porn (and certainly even more than gay porn).

Anyway, I have a theory about masculinity, femininity, the creation of mankind as being symbolic of such energies, etc. which I may go into in more detail in another article, if I am able and if necessary. But in short, I feel that men may be physically designed to represent strength, masculinity, or the masculine principal, but that principle isn’t about being attractive, at least not in the passive sense, but more about getting stuff done. That part (getting stuff done, etc.) may be attractive to women.

Look, most men aren’t going to be head turners for women, nor should they be. It’s probably rare that a man is going to be so hot that it causes women stop in their tracks, turn around, and do a double take (although there are some men who are apparently attractive enough to do so). Those men may be few and far in between though, as some women have made painfully obvious with their complaints about male aesthetics, so if they are only waiting for the 20% or whoever of men who are physically hot, they may be doing themselves a disservice.

Height

This is one of the most messed up aspects of modern dating that I have ever seen. I have a suspicion that the attack on men’s height by women may be a response to get at men because of some of the attacks from men on women’s weight. Look, I get it, the attacks that men did on women’s weight wasn’t right. And I suspect that since women may have felt body shamed concerning their weight, perhaps some women are using the height standard as a way to get back at men for such body shaming.

Only thing about that is, for one, it isn’t an exactly reaction, obviously, since they aren’t talking about overweight men. For two, generally speaking, weight can be helped where as height generally can’t really be. It can be lied about. There is apparently an expensive (as well as painful surgery) that can increase a person’s height, but that’s generally outside of the financial capability of a lot of people

So how does this height preference cause women to do damage to themselves? Aside from overlooking (no pun intended) a lot of decent men in general, they also make it harder for men to be tall enough. This is because a lot of women tend to wear heels. Not just one or two-inch heels either, but even four and five inch heels. Yet they will say that they need a man to not only be taller than them naturally (if not 6 feet or close to it in general), but that those men also have to be taller than them when they wear heels.

If a man is 5’9, who is generally taller than a lot of women, yet a woman who is 5’6 or 5’7 insists on wearing 5-inch heels, obviously, that’s going to make it harder for men who are 5’9 to be taller than them when they themselves are wearing heels. And then you have the women who are short themselves who talk all of that stuff about men having to be at least 6 feet tall, so for some women, even just being taller than them isn’t enough.

But I have the suspicion that if a short man were to wear lifts in his shoes or shoes that made him taller in some way and it was found out, that probably wouldn’t be a good look in the eyes of a lot of women and may even provoke mockery.

You know, some women say a lot of bullshit, like just be confident in who you are or whatever (which is good for its own reasons), yet they know damn well that, regardless of how confident a man is, if they aren’t tall enough, a lot of women aren’t dealing with them like that and some are Apparently so arrogantly stupid enough to think that a short man shouldn’t even have the audacity to step to them in the first place. 🙄 Go figure.

Money

Finally, we get into the money aspect. I have mentioned this a couple times before, but many women want to close the pay-wage gap and be allowed to make as much as men make, especially if they are doing the same jobs. Logically, that makes sense. However, where it becomes illogical is when some women want that, but also still want to uphold a patriarchal and traditional idea of attraction where they have to date a man who makes at least as much as them, if not more, in order to be a viable candidate. Mathematically speaking, if everybody is making equal pay, then obviously, sometimes a woman might make more than a man. If they expect it to always be otherwise, the math ain’t mathing!

But yet again, some women are making it harder on themselves because they don’t seem to see the mathematical or statistical discrepancy of expecting all viable candidates to make is at least as much as they make (though I suspect that they often prefer their want men to make more than them). Some women consider dating a man who makes less than them as “dating down”, but they obviously expect men to be willing to date down to be with them, yet claim to be against the patriarchy, and demand that men and women make equal pay and that women shouldn’t have to be financially dependent on men anymore either. Go figure.

There was a great segment where a brother called out that bullshit on what looked like a news segment, and personally, I think it was awesome. You can view the short below:

Basically, what I’m trying to say is, either women accept the pay equality and the financial independence that women have today while accepting the potential responsibilities that come with it (such as possibly dating a man who makes less than them, for example), hold out for the statistically few men who will meet their standards (and either date those men exclusively when they find them or, more likely, share those men with other women since those men might be fewer and more far in between than they think), or simply remain single if they just refuse to “date down” or whatever the hell they call it.

Of course, one more option is that they can fight to bring back the good old days where it was only the men who worked and where women stayed home barefoot and pregnant, that way, men always made more money, and that would increase the number of financially eligible bachelors exponentially. So choose!

Anyway, these are just my two cents. Like I have said before, people can be as superficial as they want to be when it comes to dating and relating. There is no affirmative action or whatever when it comes to dating. However, this is just logically putting it out there that women may be making it a lot harder for themselves to find eligible bachelors if they keep holding on to unreasonable standards. But with that information, you all are free to do what you will. Feel free to share your thoughts on this information. I look forward to it. 😉
