It’s funny that you guys care about it so much. I’m 6ft and tell girls I’m 6’5 just so they make a big deal out of it. Sure you can say it’s for insecurity but if ur shorter why does it matter?

A few women will care abt what your height is. However, most women will care more if the first thing they learned abt you was a lie

some people just don’t like being short. you don’t need a valid reason on why your insecurities are your insecurities. it just is

it literally does not matter if you are short but being a liar matters. we can tell when you are lying and it automatically makes you less attractive

Better yet why do yall care about it in the first place if you know some people are insecure about it? Like say if I started asking girls how much they weighed. Should I call them out for lying when they are insecure? Or do I just mind my shit?

i don’t care. a guy was talking to me about his height and obviously lied so it made me curious why people lie about that. so naturally i came to the ask men group

i think if you asked a person of any gender about their weight they’d be probable to lie. i feel weight is a slightly different topic and much more sensitive

Personally, I fully disagree and think anything can be shared without discomfort. Just me tho. But just because you feel away doesn’t mean others do as well.

people shouldn’t make mean comments about anything but with weight comments eating disorders can form and be really dangerous

I’m a girl but I feel like I’d rather you round down cause then it’s a pleasant surprise when you’re taller. It’s only believable if you round down by at least an inch though lol

Yes exactly! It’s not just about caring about height. The women that don’t care about height will be like why are you just lying? Just be honest anyway you don’t want to date someone so superficial that they care about 5’11 vs 6’

If I’m a fat woman and I use older pic of me being skinny on my profile are you gonna wanna keep dating me once you see that I’m huge? No cause not only are you not attracted to that but you’ve also been blatantly lied to and that’s even more unattractive
