So it does matter then lol These women just can't tell the truth, telling the truth is a difficult feat for how shallow and penis size shaming girth, height obsessed they are.
Its not exactly a problem, its instinctual , there is not much women can do about it , they'll always naturally desire taller guys, thats how nature is
Height doesn't matter but if I am wearing an artificial enhacment as heels that makes me taller I don't wanna date a shorter guy that can't enhance his height unless he gets an excruciating surgery to elongate his bones
This statistic can be shown in the Netherlands where all the population of men are tall, not because they grew, but because of natural selection. alot of females in the Netherlands in the 1900's prefered tall guys, and therefore more tall offspring. Due to this fact, not alot of short offspring is born because they cannot reproduce, which is quite disturbing to think about that short men are actually unintentionally being whipped out. This case will be the same for some other countries as well in the near future, and eventually this phenomenon will occur with other characteristics like blue eyes, blonde hair, skin colour, and also with women like big boobs, big butt etc. So I predict in the next 100 years or so, the world will be full of 5'9 - 6'4 men only with blue eyes etc, and 5'3 - 5'6 women with big asses.
@@dsadasdas5620 This is a bad prediction. I see where u are coming from but women have always prefered more taller men from the beginning of time and the avg height in both male and female both really only drastically increased in the last 200 years, scientist have confirmed that actually has way more to do with improved nutrition, health, and in general a better quality of life which has most likely peaked now and less to do with womens height preference. Is it harder for short men to create offspring? probably a little but not nearly as much as u think, its really going to come down to each man but most the short men i personally know have kids so i just havent seen that theory of its extremly hard for short men to make offspring to be true. And for the blue eyes prediction, blue eyes have seen a very drastic decrease since 1950 by about 40%. But u are right about the big butts bc the hormones in all the food and the fact that people are getting fatter which leads to bigger butts for women.
I love how women say we’re intimidated by them when in reality a lot of times the women generally come across as arrogant and narcissistic when they say they make more money, are taller, or are better at something than a man.
It could NEVER be that they have flaws, right?! It has to be that the guy was "intimidated." I take that as code for: she has a lot of masculine qualities. It's not intimidation, it's that masculine women are not that attractive to most of us. We want a feminine woman.
Facts!!! It still baffles me to how they come to such silly conclusions, in what way do they actually think they intimidate us men, its us guys that are far stronger than them regardless of how tall a guy is, even the shortest guy isnt really intimidated by them and as for them talking about insecurities, they have far more of those than men so maybe they should get over their own insecurities rather than projecting theirs on to the man
To be fair what a lot of men go through when a woman makes more than them is a feeling of inequity, for the most part we want to be protectors and providers. A sense of inferiority can develop when a man does not feel he can be both those roles to a woman. Now you might be that 1 in 1,000 straight male for which that does not apply but the vast majority of men want to be physically and financially dominant in a relationship, and theres nothing wrong with that.
3:09 I dated a 6’3 volleyball player. I can assure you that she was the one that created all of the “odd” moments. - She didn’t want to wear her heels. Despite my not caring and telling her to wear her heels - She would slump down for pictures - She was always looking around to see if people were looking. - she said she felt masculine being the taller person (edit 13:03 I’m glad a woman confirmed this in the video) - constant self deprecating comments about insecurities surrounding her height. - she would starve herself because she was concerned about being tall and fat. I’m not even short, I was just shorter than her. I think women always blame men for this dynamic, but women certainly contribute it.
“It’s not about the money, it’s about proactively grabbing the check so I don’t even see it.” Right up there with “the difference between confidence and arrogance is how attractive I find him” in girl shallowness justifications.
Yeah... If you expect him to grab the check... It's kinda about the money! 😂 If I'm broke AF... I'm not going to be snatching up your $30 tab without a 2nd thought.
@@jasono2139 Yeah, it does. If you ask her out, even if it's a bust, you pay. That's your fault for not picking up on a red flag to begin with. Every time you decide the date didn't live up to what you hoped, if you can't hold up your end of gentlemanly or ethical behavior, you're every bit as bad as they are. You are exactly what that girl was trying to say, but failed miserably at articulating: Not immediately grabbing the check, if you asked her out, makes you a piece of shit.
@@Swearengen1980 When are we not asking them out? The point is men are always expected to pay. Why should I have to act within my traditional gender role when they do not?
These girls are smart. They saw the previous videos and how those girls got roasted on social media. Now they know exactly what to say and virtue signal. Kudos to them! Actions speak louder than words.
Eeeh. I’d rather have blunt truth even when it’s paired with unawareness or straight delusion. It’s just more entertaining than your daily dose of virtue signaling.
@@VeganGoat96 they're scared of being judged for giving an answer that makes them seem unflattering. It's called impression management, pretty much the reason women lie so much
I've dated a girl like Nicole before. I make average salary in DC, and she was a high earning individual. She would continuously call me out and belittle me for my salary, even though I had no debt, and a huge savings, I didn't spend money on useless things. She would continuously call me out about not increasing my finances, and then ended it with me, and said "you're a great guy, be more confident with your next girl." It had nothing to do with confidence. She kept pounding me into the ground belittling me for the finances, and made it seem like I wasn't confident enough, because I didn't want to argue, or get a new job in the IT field. I don't know what happened to that girl, but it will be very difficult for girls like these to get men unless they self-reflect.
Belittling about anything is unacceptable. Sounds like she placed a high importance on money and couldn't understand that you didn't. Some people can't wrap their head around the fact that not everyone thinks like they do.
A lot girl think they are superior when they have a lot of money, and they don't consider also of you are happy in your job. And don't pay attention or appreciate the values ,principles of the men.
I hate women like the one you describe and have no compassion sympathy or shit in general for them I would go as far as me wishing Nothing but pain hurt on them by losing everything
I remember a survey being carried out in the UK asking women what they thought was the best (and most valued) physical asset of man was......Height took the top spot.
I love how the dark girl use words like intimidated and insecure. Just because men dont want a controlling, dominant, combative women doesnt mean they are intimidated or insecure. I dont think men feel emasculated around her, I think its because she thinks less of men who are shorter than her. Its often just pure narcissism.
I watched her in other segments and this observation is spot on. Again, thanks to her for participating in this, but she genuinely doesn’t seem like a great person. I’d HATE to be her colleague, let alone date her.
I’m 5’7 and was recently passed over for a promotion for a guy who’s about 6’3. We both have equal credentials (bachelor of science degrees) but he was seen as more of a “leader”. It’s a subconscious thing. I’m not complaining as I have a good job but height definitely does carry over into the workplace not just dating. It could always be worse. We just have to work harder. It is what it is 🤷🏻♂️
That's always a weird one because the stats show more "successful" people are on-average taller... and I wonder is it a biological thing, did those studies compensate for malnourished individuals, or as you've put it "an imposing height" gets the promotion by default? Similarly there's been studies that have shown that more attractive women tend to get more job offers, so appearance biases are definitely real.
@@jasono2139 I can understand how women can easily get a pass if they're attractive is it on the man side that the man applies more effort or is he getting a pass to from others that gets him the position easier
Being a guy that is 5'3" this is one of the most difficult parts about dating. I don't lie about my height and am not self conscious about it (I've dated 5'9" women in the past), but I get rejected "a lot" based solely on my height. I don't mind if my date is taller than me or wearing heels, but it seems that the woman is the one that is self conscious because I am shorter than her, and she doesn't want to be seen with a man that is shorter than her. I think the women you have in this video are way more based than the average woman in the United States, and they make great comments and points that the shorter guys are self conscious about their height. I can tell you that at one point I was very self conscious about my height, and probably self sabotaged some relationships, but knowing that that caused those problems I don't worry about superficial things that don't matter, such as height. However, these women also mention the things that are more meaningful to them than height (being assertive, having emotional intelligence, being a good communicator, etc.), but let's be honest; would any of them date a guy shorter than them long enough to identify if he has these traits that they are looking for? Thanks for sharing your video.
I say don't let it defeat if dating taught me anything is that always be women out there that care and not care about height. Just how men out there that care about cup sizes or fat or slim? It's life we got deal with it.
@andrewdarko115 I understand if it preference for tall women It's jus excuse for short women Honesty it's not preference anymore. It's standard girls live by. /Just how some women out there flat as chest board we have live with it
women say they want a tall guy because they say it makes them feel protected. Bruce Lee was 5'8". Chuck Norris is 5'9". Most MMA fighters, except at the highest weight class, are under 6ft. So, they wouldn't be able to protect them? Height has no bearing on fighting ability or the ability to protect you. Audie Murphy, the MOH winner and highest decorated soldier of WWII was only 5'5".
@@philhamilton8731 yep....Bruce Lee was barefoot 5' 6.7" and around 140 pounds....actually that is the real worldwide average male today!!....and in his case he breaks other barriers also like race, height, economic status....he married with linda lee who in reference to height was around the same to him, and she is one white american women and althugh bruce was one american born even was one chinese guy bcause both of his parents were of that ethnic background and also because he come back to hong kong when was a little boy... U are so right in reference to feel secure bcause many sport fights champions are around that height... manny pacquiao is 5' 6" floyd mayweather is 5´' 6.8" canelo is 5' 6.7" same as bruce in height no in weight... and well, billionaire people in the world are also around that height: carlos slim is 5' 6.5" marck zuckerberg is barely 5' 7" jeff bezos is 5' 7" warren buffet is 5' 8.7" ...and those guys can easily pay one special alarm system security to their homes and buy the best shield armor in their vehicles, get high profesional bodyguards plus one real army under one bad ass kind of napoleon (around 5' 4" to 5' 5") strategical leadership just for the real safe of their entire family....
Bruce Lee, why are you talking about a dude that was fake? "Height has no bearing on fighting ability" , yeah right. Women want tallest, most successfull dudes because they are healthier, and have more testosterone and will be able to give her better offspring.Its nature, without it no one would be alive today..
"short men are angry and insecure" is something a lot of women echo hmmm...i wonder if that has anything to do with society (and women in particular) constantly shitting on them for an immutable trait? seems pretty reasonable to be insecure about something that you get made fun of for. imagine calling a woman a fatass and then when she gets upset you go "awww are you insecure????" i'm so thankful i'm tall. it really is a blessing.
Many of the men imagine these issues. So many women truly dont care about height. Ive never seen a shorter guy be treated differently, and as a women i dont care at all about height or looks in general bc all i care about is a man’s heart. And many other women too feel this. I would understand if a short guy got insulted to his face and got upset, but if hes j imaging ppl r scrutinizing him, then that would be a very unattractive mentality. Same w how overweight ppl shouldnt go around acting rude and insecure bc of imaginary perceived scrutiny. Its not attractive when anyone goes around acting like a victim and having a negative attitude. As a shorter blonde girl, its fine if a man isnt interested in me bc im too short or he likes brunette girls. It doesnt mean he is being mean or rude. Everyone j needs to have a positive attitude and try to be the best they can.
@@StuartHetzler its not my opinion, its j a fact that many men go around being angry and insecure bc of perceived scrutiny. we all have to fight against beauty standards and always remember we r all beautiful. we j need to always be positive, bc we r all happiest when we forget about superficial earthly things.
@@beliber6681Insecurity isn't created out of thin air. Stop throwing the word "insecurity" everywhere if you can't use it well. Why are not so good looking women insecure about their looks? Because of society. Insecurities are built slowly day by day. If you are not a "short" man, then you won't understand the pain of being short. I often see women being insecure but I do empathize with them because society is so harsh with their "beauty standards". Many women don't even look at if aren't 6ft. And the worst part is I'm taller than almost every woman.
@@D402S i know that ppl cant help if sometimes they have moments of feeling insecure, and i know that prob every person on earth has these moments, but the problem is j when it makes ppl act differently and have a negative attitude. sometimes it can feel upsetting to think about all the different beauty standards ppl in the world have, but basically, all of that is fake and not worth paying any attention to, bc the truth rlly is that the most important thing is for ppl to have a good attitude. the shallow ppl r the loudest, but the majority of ppl know that looks rlly dont count for very much.
Nicole is where toxic masculinity comes from. Not men. She has all these expectations of masculinity, and places them on men, and says they're insecure about it lol
Most women are like that. Most of them want brutal aggressive mate. There is a reason why most women go for a "bad boys". Which translates to tall, handsome fuckboys who treat them like shit. Of course - "where are the good men?", "all men are thrash", and similar are constantly being mentioned on the internet. No women, or media will blame women for their choices. Nobody talks about how many good men are out there and that most women try to date top 1-5% of men (80-20 rule is long gone)
These girls are trying to fool themselves with their answers. They continually contradict everything they say about height doesn’t matter. I’m energetic, masculine, emotionally intelligent, earn a great salary,way above average, I am very good looking, I am in amazing physical shape, I dress very well, but I’m 5’7”. Even before we meet, I get ghosted as soon as I reveal I’m only 5’7”…one woman that I met up with got mad and stormed off in first minute of meeting because I did not meet her height expectation. Too bad ladies, your passing on a lot of great men because of your shallow expectations
"Shallow expectations " i mean, you guys complain about how women don't want a short guy because men can't control their height. You call them shallow for that but I promise 99.99% of you men wouldn't want to date an ugly woman. And ugly women can't control their looks. So according to you, you're all shallow too....right?

I am unusually short for a man at 5,0. I used to be insecure about it, but I now have accepted that I can’t change my height and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I have a lot of other qualities that girls would consider attractive. If they don’t like me just because of my height, than they missed out on a great opportunity. Also, it would mean I dodged a bullet with those types of girls.
Listen the Hispanic men I work with in Arizona. United States. They are really good looking men most of them they are usually shorter. 5’2-5’8. And they are with some of the hottest women
The woman who doesn’t want to date men shorter because they’re “emasculated” is, in my opinion, lying. She is blaming men for her biases. If a guy said, “I won’t date a heavy woman because she’ll feel self-conscious about her weight”, we’d clearly see he was lying.
look I don't know how it feels but me, at 6'4, completetly scare women. Like I've had women and girls start running when I walked behind them at night. I've had women grab their purses and have their pepper spray half out when I got somewhat close to them in public spaces. I need to try really, really hard to not scare the shit out of people, especially women. I cannot act natural at parties or in public because it would just intimidate and scare people, make them feel really uncomfortable. We all have our burdens
@@juannaym8488 i think what your saying is bs. i have friends who are tall and they get women to talk to them randomly asking them for numbers and so on. that wouldnt happen if they were seen as scary would it? and lets talk about being short... i have never had a gf, never had a girl show intrest in me. like what am i supposed to do. no matter what i will always be genetically trash and no one will find me physically attractive
I was j looking in the comments on another vid, and there was so many women there saying they r interested in guys of all heights, many women had boyfriends or husbands around ur height. There r so many women who r looking for the right man, and dont care about superficial things.
I love these "height videos". As a man that's 5'5" my prefrences in a woman is that she has at least a D cup chest, anything smaller is a huge turn off for me.
We need to start encouraging men to be more vocal like this about their "preferences". Weaponize your body preferences in the way women have over the likes of height, penis size/girth and every other thing you cant change about your body. Whilst claiming any male who has preferences is "misogyny" or shallow of course.
"I'm intimidating" is just another way of saying "I don't ever compromise in a relationship. It's either my way or no way." or worse, "I'm needy, and the relationship will revolve around my needs. My needs will dominate every conversation and decision, and I will never consider that you might have any needs or even preferences." No matter what they mean by intimidating, they are all saying, "Beware, I won't make a good partner."
The short weaker I wanna feel small, protected, and dainty sex wants to dictate what is intimidating. It’s not intimidating. It’s unattractive. The same way they find “feminine” men unattractive. No one says they’re insecure for it (even though wanting someone better than you literally does mean you don’t feel secure with yourself).
As messed up as this may sound, my 31 years of experience has shown me that the women who call themselves intimidating are mistaking that for irritating or arrogant. Not all of course, but it’s very common. That said, most women simply want you to be at least 3-4 inches taller. Your actual height matters very little to most as long as you meet that criteria and you’re not insecure about it.
I've heard this said to me in the past: "I'm a strong woman - guys can't handle that, so I end up alone". Usually it's not that she's "strong"; it's that she's just a disagreeable person that's unpleasant to be around.
In my short-guy experience, after having a first date, values, personality, and chemistry take over, but height plays a big role in getting your foot in the door and landing that first date. Women may say (and honestly I might add) that things like personality, humor, values, and career matter way more than height, but if you don't already know the woman you're asking out, she'll accept or reject your offer based primarily on superficial features (like men do as well), with one of the main ones being height. Men may reject women based on their weight, and it's also a superficial thing, but unlike height, a person's weight does say something about them. You can be bigger and still be healthy; that's not what I'm talking about. But when someone is obese beyond the natural range for a healthy female, that's when it starts to become an issue and is an indicator of other undesirable traits she may have. However, height is something we as humans can't control, so if you're going to judge a person when deciding to accept a first date with them, please go off of other features that tell you something about the person, such as personal hygiene, how they carry themselves (if meeting in person and not on an app) or whether they fall inside a healthy weight and build for their stature and body type. Thanks for coming to my TED talk, haha
While men judge superficially as well, we at least have a much wider list we accept then females lol. Yes big tits or such might be a great thing, but we'll take a girl who's a 6/10 or who's maybe slightly thick, a short girl or average or tall. Guys will accept a damn hole in the ground lol.
Well I could turn around say can't accept them cus their flat as chess board. But I'm not vain about it politely agree to date and tell them after whether to see them again or not. Never turn someone down if they treating me out as dude regardless of height, age, or social status
I do like the camera panning back to Courtney. I think the one thing I wish would change, especially with topics like this, is to keep their name and height on the screen. Sometimes, it's hard to track answers when their height was said once and at the beginning of the video.
I wouldn't date a woman taller than me and I'm 5'10.5"/5'11.5" it's not insecure it is a preference a short man can't protect a woman a tall man however can and is more attractive.
In college I asked out two different girls in a span of two weeks both rejecting me and said the exact same thing, ‘You’re too short’. I’m 5’5”. They were both like an maybe an inch at most taller than me. It was brutal 😅.
Same height here, Jon. I'm sure that was unpleasant, but at least they were upfront with you and you could move on immediately. They're both best left exactly where they are -- in the past.
Same height here. I have no issue being with a taller girl, in fact, all but one of my long term girlfriends have been taller than me. That being said, girls can be brutal when rejecting you for your height. They'll usually tell you right off the bat, and I've even had more than one laugh at me.
I hope you just bounced that experience, I'm your height exactly and I've had a lifetime of great dating with the hottest women I encountered in real life. I know a lot of women did rule me out over height, but I can't remember any of them because I was too busy having fun with girls who liked me. I had one fling with a super voluptuous young woman five inches taller than me, she was married to a 6'2 handsome guy who made a ton of money selling pharmaceuticals. She openly f..ked with me about my height (she would say "okay, but you're short!" whenever I jabbed at her when we were joking around), but her face and actions told me she was attracted, and I took full advantage ignoring the short comments, I considered them "sh..t tests", and I enjoyed her body quite a few times by not taking her comments seriously, she would even come over to my place whenever she was free. I simped for a straight 10 I was attracted to when I was young (twenties) and she was always insulting me about my height, but I slept with her regularly for almost two years (she was a bi..tch, but I was young and infatuated so f..k it, lol). I just think most women who say these things are just testing your resilience and being brats, so I don't take it seriously. Don't worry, I only dated women who didn't have any height issues when it came to real ltr's, and the woman I had my kids with never had the slightest issue with my height, even though the guy I took her away from was 6'4. It's all compatability of personalities if you ask me. I actually think women who vocalize the height stuff are funny to listen to, they don't even know what they want like most women, haha.
@@thehairyyam3077 It's absolutely vile how women treat men, especially over things they can't help about their bodies from penis size to height shaming to going bald etc.
I love this video because we can see your reaction, Courtney, compared to the other videos where you're asking questions behind the camera. Yes, we would like to see more of these.
I'm sure she does really well at holding her reactions in because if she were to let loose, she might get acne from face palm after face palm after face palm
@@painexotic3757 ok, not dark but cynical. If you really think that zero women on the panel are being honest in their answers then I think a little self evaluation is in order, because that in itself is delusional
‘I’ve never met a man shorter than me’. Meaning ‘I am not interested in a man shorter than me’. And ‘men are intimidated by me’ is code for ‘I can’t find a man willing to tolerate my mental health issues’.
Honestly I'm short, I'm not very dominant and i can accept and understand that's what i seem to society and what society doesn't realise is short men like myself, dont want society (women) to feel bad for us, or date us just to see if it gets them off and "experiment" because they feel they have to. I can also proudly comment that fat people need to get over themselves, like i have with my height and accept that they are lazy, atleast they can actually control it.
My father and mother, both 5’7” from Ireland, just happily celebrated their 50th anniversary together. He’s a quiet yet confident fellow who’s never exhibited anything in the way of a Napoleon complex in his life. I turned out to be 6’1”, and yet I’m the one still looking up to him and that reserved self-assurance, so don’t ever think your stature will stop you from getting the right girl.
I’m the reverse. All of the men on my dads side of the family are at minimum 5’10” (Spaniard blood) with my 1st cousins (male) being 6’1”, 6’3”, 6’2”, and 6’3”. Ffs even my female cousin is 6’1”. Pops is 5’11”. I wish I got his height genetics, cause I’m only 5’9”
A problem that may be happening ( or could happen in the future) is that Courtney Ryan now has videos showing women's bias/delusion on height and money. Some of these people may have seen those videos before their interviews and may be determined not to be seen as "shallow" in the upcoming thousands of views.
I'm 6'3" and tall girls have always made my heart go pitter patter (my spouse is 5'10")! They tend to underestimate their attractiveness because their competition are the petite girls who get most of the attention. I've seen a lot of them slouch their shoulders in public trying to look smaller but they should own it and be proud!
This is why I don't care for tall women. The vast majority of them have terrible posture because of that insecurity. I don't care about height itself, I just don't want to date a hunchback.
I've dated women taller than me shorter than me wider than me thinner than me older than me and younger than me. Height definitely doesn't matter if, IF, If you have personality, looks, and some mental fortitude. I'm above average in everything, except height and it doesn't stop me from dating, hooking up, and getting treated properly
@@interspacer4277 well yeah, the one was very very close to a year of exclusive dating and one of the girls I'm seeing now told me in the very beginning that she has a thing for guys shorter than her that can pick her up and since I swept her off her feet right after that, and also put her knees in the crux of my elbow right in front of my couch, she's still eating out of my hands super giddy any time I'm around
As others are saying, love the CourtCam! Something that would be interesting would be to poll men on your social media, then reading those results to the women and asking for their opinions on them. Keep up the great work 💪🏽
We aren't intimidated by outgoing women. We might be embarrassed by them if they're idea of outgoing is being loud, but we're not intimidated. Also, I'm 5'8. I had a girlfriend who was 5'10, and we were both fine with it.
Values and alignment are absolutely the most important. Look at Boris and Natasha, they both have sketchy personalities and were totally made for each other.
I'm tall guy (6.3), and I think that has compensated a little for my lack of social skills and facial attractiveness. If I were short, I think it would be very hard for me 😅
Being tall isn't enough to get positive reactions from women. I'm about 6.5 if I calculated it right and I was rather thin for most of my life (now I am normal). Positive reactions so far: 0
If you noticed, a lot of short guys tend to have the best personality because they had to in order to make up for not being tall enough. for a lot of girls.
I am tall, about a 5 or 6 is facial attractiveness, on the lean side. I wouldn't say I have it hard but I wouldn't say have it easy either. I can imagine it would be way harder if I was five or six inches shorter.
If your shorter or make less than her, it will ALWAYS be a problem. Even if they believe they are ok with it, they are not. I've talked with women in my own family about how they're mind works and they will eventually admit the truth about themselves which is fine but let's talk reality, men and women are just so different but society doesn't want you to realize it!
I personally know of 3 couples where the female is taller. My friend Danny who's a navy corpsman is 5' 9, and his wife Danielle is 6' 2, and my buddy Deegan's mother is like 6 feet tall, and her husband is like 5' 10, 5' 11, and my buddy Hunter's biological mother who passed away when he was a kid was 6 feet tall, and his dad is like 5' 7 or 5' 8, and his wife now is 5' 9 and they've been together for almost 20 years. I personally find women that are super tall to be very attractive, and I wouldn't be emasculated about it one bit, because being manly isn't a height, it's a mindset.
I had a classmate in college (we knew of each other in high school) who said she would only date guys 6ft. or higher, even though she was 5 foot herself, because she didn't want "short sons." TWENTY FIVE years later I ran into her and her family at the mall. She was there with her twin 16 year old daughters, who looked to be about 5'4." Her husband looked to be 6'2." Then I hear "Mom" and see a guy coming around the aisle. It was her son, maybe 20, who was about 5'2," the daughters were definitely taller. Seeing him brought the "short son" memory immediately to mind; and worse, I got the sense my former classmate knew exactly what I was thinking. We both made pleasantries and exchanged business cards, but I never heard from her, and honestly I had no reason to contact her. Life is stranger than fiction.

At least in her case, holding out for her height standard seems to have paid off in the sense that she's in a very long term marriage, her daughters are at least of average height, and her husband is over 6 foot; is definitely making over $100k/year; he works out with no "dad bod"; and still has a full head of hair. Not sure but those facts probably describes a man in the top 10%. It's a win for her but that success didn't trickle down to her son.
Barring the unspoken "karma" of this story (if it's real), damn, that's so trully awful for that boy. I have a controversial opinion about short guys (especially those very short ones) and about bad looks at large, but i don't know if i could share here.
I have often noticed that women who are way shorter than me tell me that I'm not tall enough, whereas women around my height (whether that's slightly shorter or slightly taller) don't care at all.
I think men should not be judge or considered rude if they say they would not date a fat girl or a heavier girl than them, as girls do this all the time with heigth
@@CourtneyRyan grew up only male with 5 sisters. What he's saying it's right. Women answer questions based on what they think others want to hear, not the truth.
I’m a 5’5” guy. I have always been super attracted to taller women. As far as I have experienced this is exactly what has happened for me. My ex-wife is 5’9”, my tallest girl friend was right at 6”. As far as I know I have never been discriminated for because of hight. Now when I was overweight…. That’s rough.
As a short man you can bag and tag tall women but you won't be able to keep them long term, because when a tall guy shows up she's going to feel small and protected its just mother nature at work man.
That is science my friend, really tall woman are actually sometimes attracted to short guys because they dont want the kids to be abnormally tall which is what would happen if she has a kid with a guy that is say 6ft 4 and she is like 6 or 6ft 1. I'm not sure if it's a subconscious thing but I have ofton seen really tall women with short guys. It also works the other way round that short guys will be attracted to really tall girls for the same reason
I never noticed my height until the women I started dating. Other men don't care and we are better at evaluating each other, not based on height. For women however, it was always them who kept bringing it up/being weird about it. Funny enough, it never worked out with those chicks and they were usually very fickle about other things/immature.
I'm 6'2" and I've dated a couple of girls taller than me. I literally didn't give a damn about their height, they couldn't go a day without making a comment about it. It literally took me grabbing them by the face, making them look at me, and telling them that their height means nothing to me for them to stop... and even then, I was the asshole for being "too aggressive" about it despite me reassuring them CONSTANTLY to those points. I've also seen guy friends of mine that are on the shorter side struggle, and the one thing I can say that girls fail to understand is how tough it is for a guy to "have confidence" when he's constantly beaten down for something he can't help. From my perspective, girls make the whole situation a lot more troublesome than it needs to be, mainly because they're the ones who make it such a factor in the first place. If a guy cares about height, it's almost certainly because he's had multiple situations come up where he wasn't given a chance or got passed over solely because of his stature. A girl caring about height though... it's so commonplace practically nobody bats an eye even if the way they go about it is damaging. Definitely one of those things where women could stand to do better.
No way you are 6’2. You dated a couple girls that were taller than you? Tallest girl I’ve ever seen was probably 6’2-6’3. Even if you did the fact that they would complain makes no sense considering the fact only 0.1% of men are probably taller than those abnormally tall girls you dated.
Being short as a man is a huge disadvantage. Women see a man stronger physically and emotionally when he is taller, which is not true. I'm short and I've gotten bullied by them and I stood up to them and they backed off. They only act tough. Size doesn't have to do with intimation. It psychological. Plus, when a woman is short she can wear high heels to cheat her height. Also you better being tall and a bit on the heavy side. At least you can lose that weight than being really skinny and short.
I'm 5'3 and an ectomorph (which means I'm skinny) and I cannot put on any weight or muscle. I have tried everything under the sun and more and have done this for 8 years. If you are tall and heavy, you can cut the weight or just lose it altogether and be fit. Being short and skinny is not good at all, serves no benefits or advantages. It is the worst thing physically to have.
@@Watcherw1 … I was the same as you but it changed at about 22. I ate a lot and started working out at 16 and never stopped. At 5’6 I was 120lbs and ripped when I graduated high school. I slowly added muscle year after year and I was 150-155 solid with abs by late 20s. I’m still the same weight now. Just lift heavy weights and drink protein shakes and I guarantee you will eventually get bigger. I couldn’t gain a pound until about 22.
@@ajbucks Dude you're not listening though. I just explained that it can't happen physically and I've layed out the facts for you, so you're just writing nonsense.
@@Watcherw1 … I’m also an ectomorph based on the measurements of my wrists and ankles. I researched it a lot when I was 15-16 because I was so skinny. I didn’t understand why couldn’t gain weight. We’ll never get big but ectomorphs can still add muscle. If I didn’t work out my whole life, I’d probably be about 135lbs instead of 155.
As a 5'7 guy in a country with quite tall men and women, it is a bit of a challenge. From my experience, it's also a bit about the attitude and vibe you're sending off. 2 of the girls I dated who were around 5'8 or 5'9 told me that they would not have INITIALLY chosen me. I think it's a lot about how we make her feel. Height matters to a lot of women, but there are also those who don't care that much. We just see more of the bad women in social media.
Women love to spout off how tall their man is. I remember a neighbor who was in her late 50s spouting off about how tall her new boyfriend was. He was fresh out of prison and also in his late 50s. She would brag how he "once was 6'2" but now had lowered to 6' because of his prison hardships... 🤡
If a female tells you that you would not have been picked by then initially, go for another girl bro. You should only want a female who sees you as their top option or they will inevitably leave for the bad boy/Chad they sexually desire, or end up cheating
As a fellow short-king who been single since Covid, this was a really good interview! Who hasn't seen these before, but this was well-covered and really helps women see how shallow height is or how projected their own height insecurities are affecting them. And you should probably know that roughly 85% of you girls are going to have to settle for a guy under 6ft because you don't wanna get to your late 20's thinking "Why can I not find a tall handsome guy?" It's like boob/ass size for guys, but we know there aren't 75%+ women out there with perfect big boobs/asses, and we don't have the same insecurities about ourselves in those features, so it's easier for men to not think about it at all when choosing a partner.
Asking short girls ON CAMERA is not a reliable indicator. Of course they know that the moment they say that they like tall guys they would get roasted so they will try not to say it (they struggled a lot with that between 10:00 and 15:30) but look how absolutely specific they are about the numbers and how resolute they are in their answers about wearing heels, do you really think they haven't obsessed over the matter before?
22:31 it's not a stereotype of not opening up, it is speaking from experience. Anytime I opened up or shared emotion with a partner, it was always used against me or shared with multiple people when it was meant to be just between us. Honestly, that's why men don't open up.
12:02 "Height isn't that relevant and society places too many (much) emphasis on the height factor..." Let's not lump and confuse society to women's preference to height. I don't see men putting "emphasis" on that, only women do this. She shifted accountability on society but not on female in general. This is the most pc response knowing Courtney Ryan's channel can reach a lot of viewer's.
I think people forget that social media isn't real life. Men think you have to be a 6'4" giga chad to get a woman. Women think $100k is the bare minimum to live a comfortable life. When all you see is the highlight reel of someone else's life that is all you focus on and none of the hard times it took to get where you are now it'll make your mindset defeatist and cynical.
People seem to forget that social media are just platforms, the same warped individuals that use these apps or the women that appear on these channels that are sitting penis size shaming men to suicide, are the exact same nasty ass women that are outside in the real world. Don't think these women outside are anymore forgiving or less shallow, as its just the same penis size shaming girth obsessed height shaming nonsense. If you aren't decent dick sized, then expect the vast majority of these soulless hoes to go instantly running back to degrade, dehumanize, body shame and publically humiliate your body to all their skeevy rat penis size shaming obsessed friends just to drive you to mental illness.
@@izzylandyt we all have, these people try to paint a fake reality that these women are just robots and fake actresses for these channels and social media lol
Still, the outcome was completely predictable: they all want a taller/bigger man to feel feminine and small; even if they are dominant and strong in day-to-day life - you can`t make this up
@@hawkerhawthorne881 it's " the female disconnect". Their lizard brain is true instinctual desire. The mouth eminates what will make them socially acceptable. This is why women are a walking contradiction . Never trust a woman's words, trust her actions.
@@hawkerhawthorne881 Couldn't it just be biological though? Evolutionary? I mean that would explain it. It's not a judgment on anyone it just is was it is. We can either get mad about it or just deal with it and work around it. These women aren't actively being manipulative, in most cases anyway its biological, or feelings as they would say but then people get all but hurt over something that is silly to fight against.
Stunning how they always got to chose. How about making a video of them explaining to us guys what they bring to the table besides average looks and fading youth?
Yeah, I get the video for the sake of it being a valid topic, but I'd like to see these women stand by their men when the need arises. If they do, they walk the talk, and if not, they just fall into the same shallow category.
5’11 Viking manlet here. Went on a date once with a 6’1 volleyball player. I didn’t mind her height. But that date went nowhere. Friends of friends set up this date between us. Her friend asks me “are you cool with a girl taller than you?” “Yeah if she’s cool with it” I reply. “Oh def” her friend says Turns out she just can’t date a guy shorter than her. I don’t blame her. We all have our non negotiables, but it’s just another example of women say vs women do.
Imagine making so much of a fuss over *potentially being taller than your partner while you’re in heels.* That mindset must be exhausting. Also, 10:38 was a breath of fresh air.
Hey Courtney great video. I have a suggestion on how you can improve a video like this. Have the women’s height, name and age on the bottom or top corner of the screen whenever they pop up. This is important so that your audience can reference certain pieces of key information while they answer questions. Keep up the good work!!
22:44 Out of the two relationships I've been in, I've been told "Stop being the soft boy and start being a hard man" in one of them, and the other started the sentence with "A real man would...." when it came to acting tough and dominant in public
I'm 6'2 and happy I can have options not limitations. I do prefer women who are 5'3" or above. If you are barely at the 5ft mark and say you only like guys over 6ft I wouldn't be interested.
I'm 5'9, but I've always felt that even if I were over 6 feet I wouldn't be interested in the short women who say they'll only date a man over 6 feet. It just displays their lack of maturity and focus on superficial things.
@Huntstyle Very true and it's also pretty ridiculous. I've been with a few women who are 5'3" and I have had no problem with that height difference. I've met a few women who were barely 5ft and they look at me like I'm a freak of nature because of my size compared to them and it's kind of uncomfortable to me. Those same short women who make that demand for a guy to be over 6ft is laughable. Go find a guy closer to your eye level.
6'8 guy here(2.06meters) here to tell y'all to forget about your height and just live your life, I've struggled with dating just as much as my shorter friends. The first thing women will notice is your attitude and your character, just try to be the person you'd like to actually hang around with for the next 40 years and you'll be your best version, both for attracting women and for being happy with yourself.
Not to sound biased just cause I’m an average height guy but i genuinely feel like most girls 5’8 or below be looking more gorgeous than the more taller ones. No disrespect. Just stuff I’ve noticed personally in my life. But there are always exceptions to that.
The basis for attraction for women is what her friends agree is attractive. The ex wife was a couple inches taller than I and not at all was that a contentious issue. She’s now living with her mother helping pay the bills like a partner should 🤷🏻 If a woman has an issue about height you only care about what others might be thinking. It’s like a man dating an overweight woman somewhat ashamed of what others might be thinking or why strangers are staring in public.
I’m 5’10” and I LOVE tall women, lol. I’ll admit that most women do care somewhat about height but the more you show confidence and the more you show assertiveness the more they’ll change their mind about you. Also, I eventually tell them that height doesn’t matter much when they’re on their knees or on their backs…🤫🤷🏻♂️
I get it if women are tall themselves. Short girls can't think like that (around 5'0) It like men dodging all 1 colour hair of girls its shallow 😂 Edited: overall, it really doesn't but media making them think that way
@@user-ys8ue1ym6v Hope not. My friend the same height made the blunder of opening a dating app once and had a 5'2 woman calling him short. The shortest of women do seem to be the biggest crazies
I watched this out of a sense of sheer, macabre masochism. Now I've seen it all the way through, I feel almost sad. Is that why the girls in school never even saw me - because I was too short? In a way, I can thank Hecate and the goddesses that I dodged some bullets there, because I've enjoyed a long and happy life, free from the pain of living with someone who might have hated me; free from the expectations that I should try and be someone I am not, or not to be choosy because "I don't have the options." I could have had a long relationship, if I'd been taller. I could have spent my life being so miserable.
That’s awesome man. Curious, did you struggle with that before being proud of it? Asking because I’ve never thought of my height (5’11”) being something I was proud of. Could be the old saying, “Privilege is invisible to those who have it.”
@@ObscureOcelot17 It's something that I never had an issue with, you can't do anything about your height. I have been rejected by women long ago because I was short but it doesn't bother me. My height is my height. It's about how you carry yourself in my perspective
Also, the real reason women go for tall guys is we have long arms and big hands. Being able to stroke her hair and give her a foot rub at the same time is a huge turn on for many women.
Yeah man, I'm 6'3 and I always used to hate taking photos in bars because I had to lean down or crouch down while grabbing their shoulder. Being this height is not as great as many guys think.
I can understand if it's a preference, but what I cannot understand is when the man you are dating checks off all the other boxes like he has a good job, he's responsible, decent looking, hard working, doesn't cheat, and you have women that will still throw all that away for a taller man. That's incredibly shallow and nonsensical. I think our society's definition of short men is incredibly warped. On a global scale, the average height of men is around 5 feet 9 inches, while the average height of women is around 5 feet 4 inches. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the average age-adjusted height for American men 20 years old and up is 69.1 inches during the years 2015 to 2016. That’s about 5 feet 9 inches tall. This means that roughly men who are 5'7ft and below can be considered short if we are being fair. Despite whatever height preference you may have calling a man short for being 5'8ft to 5'11ft is just wrong and says a lot about you as a person. It sounds like more of a fetish than a preference if you ask me. I'd also like to add that some women still choose to date horrible men even though there are pretty of good tall men waiting around the corner because they don't have "swag" or are deemed "corny". Those statistics are the same regarding money and penis size, society is changing factually accurate data and instead relying on personal preference and I think the worse thing is people condoning this terrible behavior. Women get on code all the time when men have a preference about behavior, weight, and sex. It's time for men to start getting on code and stop allowing overly vain and superficial women to get away with this type of behavior. Call them out when you hear them, stand up for your short brothers in return they will stand up for you. I want to clarify that not all women think this way and there are plenty of women that don't act like extremists regarding height. Find those women. Men like women that like them.
@@newwaveinfantry8362 I appreciate the clarification, but I did say american, but what your saying still stands. If what you're saying is 100% true then the matter is even worse. Men who are 5'7ft to 5'11ft are being called short and "short kings" when that's just average height for a man. Tall men are rare not the average. I hear certain women talk about the oversexualization of women, toxic masculinity, and no objectifying comments, height preferences which gets accepted by the masses within our society with no questions. However, whenever a man talks about a woman's bad behavior, weight, personality, and appearance he's labeled as insecure and all these other horrible names. The double standard is rampant and the bias has set in. Let's unpack this topic a little bit more... I've also heard the excuse about women wanting to wear heels with her man...okay so wear the damn heel then. If he's confident in himself then just wear the heels and if someone makes fun of you or him for being together, check them on the spot or just ignore them. They're arrogant, stupid and probably jealous of that couple's relationship if you ask me. There's also another alternative, stop wearing heels all the time. Why are 6 inch heels the default? Are there 2-4 inch heels? Wear those sometimes, alternate between the super tall ones and mid height ones, but see in order to do that the women your dealing with would have to take into consideration her boyfriend or husband feeling on the matter. If he's a very confident man he'll probably never say anything to his girlfriend because he's too proud, wants to make you happy and most importantly wants her to look her best. As for hyper insecure men, I'd say that if a man is 5'7ft to 5'11ft and pulls a good looking woman whose 5'8ft to 6'0ft, you've won the damn lottery. They need to take their place in the circle of life and stop worrying about their flaws and insecurities, lol. Some men and women might even need therapy of this whole height issue. It's okay to have a preference, but when it becomes dogma and the end all be all then it becomes a delusion and unrealistic. No shame or hate towards men who are tall and very tall either. I think that we as men need to work together regardless of race, religion, sex, gender, height, weight or any of that other superficial bullsh$t. You're thoughts?
The reason shorter women look for really tall men is because they feel more vulnerable so they try to compensate by having a guy that’s much bigger and stronger so they feel safer.. I will say though, women having a height preference is completely fine but being rude or dismissive about it isn’t.
The fact that you ask women who are clearly not in the top 14.5% of women about their delusional preferences is a tell in itself. Would you ask average men if they prefer supermodels or bikini models? No, because it's ridiculous.
This is an oxymoron. As height, money, and status always come first anyway 🤷♂️ Quite often before being the right person. Which is why a lot of relationships don’t work
@@lockyp204 The real oxymoron is height, money, and status before all else. Totally agree with you though on it being why relationships don’t work, too many people get wrapped up into material things and want to live the luxury lifestyle.
What you are saying is backwards you are eliminated if you're not good-looking enough or tall enough you don't get to treat them bad because they won't associate with you do you have a brain in your skull
First, many thanks for posting this video Courtney and especially thanks to all your interviewees for their honesty. I'm sure it wasn't always what we guys wanted to hear from them but the truth is always better even if it's a hard pill to swallow. This is by far THE number one insecurity that eats away at we men. Worse, our height is controlled by genetics over which we obviously had absolutely no say and is nothing we can do anything about. You can always diet and work out to lose weight, but you can't gain height no matter what you do. (In fact, my family doctor told me men will actually lose 1 or 2 inches of height as we get older.) One of your interviewees nailed it on the head, we have been force-fed our entire lives by the media on what mating ideals should be and that informs our agendas and criterias of what our mates should be. Never mind that they are crushing to both men and women due to the impossibility of living up to them by both sexes. It really comes down to how open-minded the individual is in front of you. There's nothing wrong with having an agenda or certain criteria as the woman who was considering the genetic effect on her children demonstrates. What's wrong is being dishonest with yourself and others about it. What it all comes down to for me is that if the woman across me isn't open-minded because she has criteria that she absolutely needs met and she will not bend on it, then it's best we both move on. Obviously that hurts in the short run which I can attest to from experience, but in the long run it's far better for both parties. All I can tell everyone is that I've seen some women get those criteria met and wound up in successful relationships and marriages and I've seen others get them met and still wind up absolutely miserable. Life is a total crapshoot. Whether your criteria are met or not, there are never any guarantees. Good luck to all of you out there.
I'm 5'6" , 5'7" on a good day. I've dated a girl who was 6'. I asked her if me being shorter bothered her, she asked me back, if her being taller bother me? I said no and she smiled back. Didn't work out in the end but she was very sweet.

These women just can't tell the truth, telling the truth is a difficult feat for how shallow and penis size shaming girth, height obsessed they are.

'Female logic' that's an oxymoron

Didn't she contradict herself?
“Tall guys are just my personal preference” - seemingly 90% of women
This statistic can be shown in the Netherlands where all the population of men are tall, not because they grew, but because of natural selection.
alot of females in the Netherlands in the 1900's prefered tall guys, and therefore more tall offspring. Due to this fact, not alot of short offspring is born because they cannot reproduce, which is quite disturbing to think about that short men are actually unintentionally being whipped out.
This case will be the same for some other countries as well in the near future, and eventually this phenomenon will occur with other characteristics like blue eyes, blonde hair, skin colour, and also with women like big boobs, big butt etc. So I predict in the next 100 years or so, the world will be full of 5'9 - 6'4 men only with blue eyes etc, and 5'3 - 5'6 women with big asses.

@@dsadasdas5620 blue eyes are attractive on girls not guys
@@dsadasdas5620 This is a bad prediction. I see where u are coming from but women have always prefered more taller men from the beginning of time and the avg height in both male and female both really only drastically increased in the last 200 years, scientist have confirmed that actually has way more to do with improved nutrition, health, and in general a better quality of life which has most likely peaked now and less to do with womens height preference. Is it harder for short men to create offspring? probably a little but not nearly as much as u think, its really going to come down to each man but most the short men i personally know have kids so i just havent seen that theory of its extremly hard for short men to make offspring to be true. And for the blue eyes prediction, blue eyes have seen a very drastic decrease since 1950 by about 40%. But u are right about the big butts bc the hormones in all the food and the fact that people are getting fatter which leads to bigger butts for women.
If women can sort by height, men should be able to sort by weight.
You can sort by weight.

@@lonerunner89 cope harder loser
I love how women say we’re intimidated by them when in reality a lot of times the women generally come across as arrogant and narcissistic when they say they make more money, are taller, or are better at something than a man.
It could NEVER be that they have flaws, right?! It has to be that the guy was "intimidated." I take that as code for: she has a lot of masculine qualities. It's not intimidation, it's that masculine women are not that attractive to most of us. We want a feminine woman.
Facts!!! It still baffles me to how they come to such silly conclusions, in what way do they actually think they intimidate us men, its us guys that are far stronger than them regardless of how tall a guy is, even the shortest guy isnt really intimidated by them and as for them talking about insecurities, they have far more of those than men so maybe they should get over their own insecurities rather than projecting theirs on to the man
That's a cope mechanism
Again it's how media precieved them just how adult sites and movies portray women 😂
To be fair what a lot of men go through when a woman makes more than them is a feeling of inequity, for the most part we want to be protectors and providers. A sense of inferiority can develop when a man does not feel he can be both those roles to a woman.
Now you might be that 1 in 1,000 straight male for which that does not apply but the vast majority of men want to be physically and financially dominant in a relationship, and theres nothing wrong with that.

I dated a 6’3 volleyball player. I can assure you that she was the one that created all of the “odd” moments.
- She didn’t want to wear her heels. Despite my not caring and telling her to wear her heels
- She would slump down for pictures
- She was always looking around to see if people were looking.
- she said she felt masculine being the taller person (edit 13:03 I’m glad a woman confirmed this in the video)
- constant self deprecating comments about insecurities surrounding her height.
- she would starve herself because she was concerned about being tall and fat.
I’m not even short, I was just shorter than her. I think women always blame men for this dynamic, but women certainly contribute it.
if we be real, its almost always women
Most women create drama just for the sport of it.
Tall women are very unattractive and they're stuck up.

This is why I don't like most tall women. They usually have terrible posture, being insecure about being too tall.

Like guys saying dont be around women if the fat 😂
@@VeganGoat96 they're scared of being judged for giving an answer that makes them seem unflattering. It's called impression management, pretty much the reason women lie so much
I've dated a girl like Nicole before. I make average salary in DC, and she was a high earning individual. She would continuously call me out and belittle me for my salary, even though I had no debt, and a huge savings, I didn't spend money on useless things. She would continuously call me out about not increasing my finances, and then ended it with me, and said "you're a great guy, be more confident with your next girl."
It had nothing to do with confidence. She kept pounding me into the ground belittling me for the finances, and made it seem like I wasn't confident enough, because I didn't want to argue, or get a new job in the IT field.
I don't know what happened to that girl, but it will be very difficult for girls like these to get men unless they self-reflect.
Belittling about anything is unacceptable. Sounds like she placed a high importance on money and couldn't understand that you didn't. Some people can't wrap their head around the fact that not everyone thinks like they do.
I'm sorry to hear that man. Keep doing your thing 👌 💯
A lot girl think they are superior when they have a lot of money, and they don't consider also of you are happy in your job. And don't pay attention or appreciate the values ,principles of the men.
Lucky she revealed her true nature early on.
I hate women like the one you describe and have no compassion sympathy or shit in general for them I would go as far as me wishing Nothing but pain hurt on them by losing everything
I remember a survey being carried out in the UK asking women what they thought was the best (and most valued) physical asset of man was......Height took the top spot.
Height is important, that's a fact
I'm 9001 inches tall.
Height is not important. People think it is but it is
@@Matanumi it is important
Only until they meet up quietly with a short gym Chad thunderstroke.
I love how the dark girl use words like intimidated and insecure. Just because men dont want a controlling, dominant, combative women doesnt mean they are intimidated or insecure. I dont think men feel emasculated around her, I think its because she thinks less of men who are shorter than her. Its often just pure narcissism.
Idk how their relationship went. But know this probably major influence that lead to large rate of being single or divorce
I watched her in other segments and this observation is spot on.
Again, thanks to her for participating in this, but she genuinely doesn’t seem like a great person. I’d HATE to be her colleague, let alone date her.
Yea girls like thar say some men can't handle them etc. Who the hell wants to handle a woman ? Lol pass
I’m 5’7 and was recently passed over for a promotion for a guy who’s about 6’3. We both have equal credentials (bachelor of science degrees) but he was seen as more of a “leader”. It’s a subconscious thing. I’m not complaining as I have a good job but height definitely does carry over into the workplace not just dating. It could always be worse. We just have to work harder. It is what it is 🤷🏻♂️
Boss's are always taller
Yep, I’ve seen tall guys as dumb as a post get promoted pretty much because of imposing height, there wasn’t much going on between their ears
Dude it’s the corporate world most millionaires and billionaires are short fat guys. Just remember that!
That's always a weird one because the stats show more "successful" people are on-average taller... and I wonder is it a biological thing, did those studies compensate for malnourished individuals, or as you've put it "an imposing height" gets the promotion by default?
Similarly there's been studies that have shown that more attractive women tend to get more job offers, so appearance biases are definitely real.
@@jasono2139 I can understand how women can easily get a pass if they're attractive is it on the man side that the man applies more effort or is he getting a pass to from others that gets him the position easier
Being a guy that is 5'3" this is one of the most difficult parts about dating. I don't lie about my height and am not self conscious about it (I've dated 5'9" women in the past), but I get rejected "a lot" based solely on my height. I don't mind if my date is taller than me or wearing heels, but it seems that the woman is the one that is self conscious because I am shorter than her, and she doesn't want to be seen with a man that is shorter than her.
I think the women you have in this video are way more based than the average woman in the United States, and they make great comments and points that the shorter guys are self conscious about their height. I can tell you that at one point I was very self conscious about my height, and probably self sabotaged some relationships, but knowing that that caused those problems I don't worry about superficial things that don't matter, such as height. However, these women also mention the things that are more meaningful to them than height (being assertive, having emotional intelligence, being a good communicator, etc.), but let's be honest; would any of them date a guy shorter than them long enough to identify if he has these traits that they are looking for?
Thanks for sharing your video.
5’3 I’m 5’5-5-6 you should be ok .do you ever have women that seem are interested in you? Those are the easiest ones
I say don't let it defeat if dating taught me anything is that always be women out there that care and not care about height.
Just how men out there that care about cup sizes or fat or slim? It's life we got deal with it.
@@sloppyjonuts9162s little bit taller than you yeah there are some that interested. Not long term as I'm picky like that 😂
@andrewdarko115 I understand if it preference for tall women
It's jus excuse for short women
Honesty it's not preference anymore. It's standard girls live by. /Just how some women out there flat as chest board we have live with it
women say they want a tall guy because they say it makes them feel protected. Bruce Lee was 5'8". Chuck Norris is 5'9". Most MMA fighters, except at the highest weight class, are under 6ft. So, they wouldn't be able to protect them? Height has no bearing on fighting ability or the ability to protect you. Audie Murphy, the MOH winner and highest decorated soldier of WWII was only 5'5".
Doesn’t matter, women make decisions more on how they feel lol.
@@user-cw5pw3ml9i true. Often when replying or starting a conversation they will say “I feel” instead of “I think”.
Bruce wasn't even 5'8" on a good day, but you definitely have a point and I agree.
@@philhamilton8731 yep....Bruce Lee was barefoot 5' 6.7" and around 140 pounds....actually that is the real worldwide average male today!!....and in his case he breaks other barriers also like race, height, economic status....he married with linda lee who in reference to height was around the same to him, and she is one white american women and althugh bruce was one american born even was one chinese guy bcause both of his parents were of that ethnic background and also because he come back to hong kong when was a little boy...
U are so right in reference to feel secure bcause many sport fights champions are around that height...
manny pacquiao is 5' 6"
floyd mayweather is 5´' 6.8"
canelo is 5' 6.7" same as bruce in height no in weight...
and well, billionaire people in the world are also around that height:
carlos slim is 5' 6.5"
marck zuckerberg is barely 5' 7"
jeff bezos is 5' 7"
warren buffet is 5' 8.7"
...and those guys can easily pay one special alarm system security to their homes and buy the best shield armor in their vehicles, get high profesional bodyguards plus one real army under one bad ass kind of napoleon (around 5' 4" to 5' 5") strategical leadership just for the real safe of their entire family....
Bruce Lee, why are you talking about a dude that was fake?
"Height has no bearing on fighting ability" , yeah right.
Women want tallest, most successfull dudes because they are healthier, and have more testosterone and will be able to give her better offspring.Its nature, without it no one would be alive today..
"short men are angry and insecure" is something a lot of women echo
hmmm...i wonder if that has anything to do with society (and women in particular) constantly shitting on them for an immutable trait? seems pretty reasonable to be insecure about something that you get made fun of for. imagine calling a woman a fatass and then when she gets upset you go "awww are you insecure????"
i'm so thankful i'm tall. it really is a blessing.
Many of the men imagine these issues. So many women truly dont care about height. Ive never seen a shorter guy be treated differently, and as a women i dont care at all about height or looks in general bc all i care about is a man’s heart. And many other women too feel this. I would understand if a short guy got insulted to his face and got upset, but if hes j imaging ppl r scrutinizing him, then that would be a very unattractive mentality. Same w how overweight ppl shouldnt go around acting rude and insecure bc of imaginary perceived scrutiny. Its not attractive when anyone goes around acting like a victim and having a negative attitude. As a shorter blonde girl, its fine if a man isnt interested in me bc im too short or he likes brunette girls. It doesnt mean he is being mean or rude. Everyone j needs to have a positive attitude and try to be the best they can.
@@beliber6681 it doesn't matter what you've seen. your opinion on life as a short guy means about as much as my opinion on life as a woman: nothing
@@StuartHetzler its not my opinion, its j a fact that many men go around being angry and insecure bc of perceived scrutiny. we all have to fight against beauty standards and always remember we r all beautiful. we j need to always be positive, bc we r all happiest when we forget about superficial earthly things.
@@beliber6681Insecurity isn't created out of thin air. Stop throwing the word "insecurity" everywhere if you can't use it well. Why are not so good looking women insecure about their looks? Because of society. Insecurities are built slowly day by day. If you are not a "short" man, then you won't understand the pain of being short. I often see women being insecure but I do empathize with them because society is so harsh with their "beauty standards". Many women don't even look at if aren't 6ft. And the worst part is I'm taller than almost every woman.
@@D402S i know that ppl cant help if sometimes they have moments of feeling insecure, and i know that prob every person on earth has these moments, but the problem is j when it makes ppl act differently and have a negative attitude. sometimes it can feel upsetting to think about all the different beauty standards ppl in the world have, but basically, all of that is fake and not worth paying any attention to, bc the truth rlly is that the most important thing is for ppl to have a good attitude. the shallow ppl r the loudest, but the majority of ppl know that looks rlly dont count for very much.
Nicole is where toxic masculinity comes from. Not men. She has all these expectations of masculinity, and places them on men, and says they're insecure about it lol
A lot of women mistake is not waiting out before diving into bucket full of chicken 😂
Most women are like that. Most of them want brutal aggressive mate. There is a reason why most women go for a "bad boys". Which translates to tall, handsome fuckboys who treat them like shit. Of course - "where are the good men?", "all men are thrash", and similar are constantly being mentioned on the internet. No women, or media will blame women for their choices. Nobody talks about how many good men are out there and that most women try to date top 1-5% of men (80-20 rule is long gone)
These girls are trying to fool themselves with their answers. They continually contradict everything they say about height doesn’t matter.
I’m energetic, masculine, emotionally intelligent, earn a great salary,way above average, I am very good looking, I am in amazing physical shape, I dress very well, but I’m 5’7”. Even before we meet, I get ghosted as soon as I reveal I’m only 5’7”…one woman that I met up with got mad and stormed off in first minute of meeting because I did not meet her height expectation. Too bad ladies, your passing on a lot of great men because of your shallow expectations
I wholeheartedly agree. Well said and I'm 5'8". Also, race can also be another factor on how you are judged in dating.
"Shallow expectations " i mean, you guys complain about how women don't want a short guy because men can't control their height. You call them shallow for that but I promise 99.99% of you men wouldn't want to date an ugly woman. And ugly women can't control their looks. So according to you, you're all shallow too....right?

I am unusually short for a man at 5,0. I used to be insecure about it, but I now have accepted that I can’t change my height and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I have a lot of other qualities that girls would consider attractive. If they don’t like me just because of my height, than they missed out on a great opportunity. Also, it would mean I dodged a bullet with those types of girls.
Good for you!
Good mindset- you'll end up pulling taller girls who are self-conscious about their height anyways
You dropped this, king: 👑
You should feel ashamed … you need to bulk up or it’s gg man. Nothing more to it than that it’s natural selection . Overcome and adapt
Listen the Hispanic men I work with in Arizona. United States. They are really good looking men most of them they are usually shorter. 5’2-5’8. And they are with some of the hottest women
The woman who doesn’t want to date men shorter because they’re “emasculated” is, in my opinion, lying. She is blaming men for her biases. If a guy said, “I won’t date a heavy woman because she’ll feel self-conscious about her weight”, we’d clearly see he was lying.
As a guy who's only 5'1, this video was very painful and heartbreaking to watch.
Yep. Don't wanna try anything anymore.
look I don't know how it feels but me, at 6'4, completetly scare women. Like I've had women and girls start running when I walked behind them at night. I've had women grab their purses and have their pepper spray half out when I got somewhat close to them in public spaces. I need to try really, really hard to not scare the shit out of people, especially women. I cannot act natural at parties or in public because it would just intimidate and scare people, make them feel really uncomfortable. We all have our burdens
Woe is me i intimidate people boo hoo (literally tutorial life difficulty)
@@juannaym8488 i think what your saying is bs. i have friends who are tall and they get women to talk to them randomly asking them for numbers and so on. that wouldnt happen if they were seen as scary would it? and lets talk about being short... i have never had a gf, never had a girl show intrest in me. like what am i supposed to do. no matter what i will always be genetically trash and no one will find me physically attractive
I was j looking in the comments on another vid, and there was so many women there saying they r interested in guys of all heights, many women had boyfriends or husbands around ur height. There r so many women who r looking for the right man, and dont care about superficial things.
When I hear the phase "I've giving them a chance" what the other person has to remember is that they are giving them a chance as well.
Giving them a chance, as if their height has anything to do with their personality. Brain dead phrase for sure.
Yh until the taller guy make passive aggressive jokes when you out
I love these "height videos". As a man that's 5'5" my prefrences in a woman is that she has at least a D cup chest, anything smaller is a huge turn off for me.
We need to start encouraging men to be more vocal like this about their "preferences".
Weaponize your body preferences in the way women have over the likes of height, penis size/girth and every other thing you cant change about your body.
Whilst claiming any male who has preferences is "misogyny" or shallow of course.

"I'm intimidating" is just another way of saying "I don't ever compromise in a relationship. It's either my way or no way." or worse, "I'm needy, and the relationship will revolve around my needs. My needs will dominate every conversation and decision, and I will never consider that you might have any needs or even preferences." No matter what they mean by intimidating, they are all saying, "Beware, I won't make a good partner."
The short weaker I wanna feel small, protected, and dainty sex wants to dictate what is intimidating. It’s not intimidating. It’s unattractive. The same way they find “feminine” men unattractive. No one says they’re insecure for it (even though wanting someone better than you literally does mean you don’t feel secure with yourself).
The ”extroverted introvert” 🙄
As messed up as this may sound, my 31 years of experience has shown me that the women who call themselves intimidating are mistaking that for irritating or arrogant. Not all of course, but it’s very common.
That said, most women simply want you to be at least 3-4 inches taller. Your actual height matters very little to most as long as you meet that criteria and you’re not insecure about it.
Ah so I need to be looking for women that are 5' 0".
Yup, the “intimidate by me” is cope. What you offer is not what I want.
@@Tim_G_Bennett and it sounds like I need to be looking for women who are 4' 10" tall or shorter. SEA (South East Asia) appears to be my best option.
I've heard this said to me in the past: "I'm a strong woman - guys can't handle that, so I end up alone". Usually it's not that she's "strong"; it's that she's just a disagreeable person that's unpleasant to be around.
@Matt exactly! so much projecting going on
In my short-guy experience, after having a first date, values, personality, and chemistry take over, but height plays a big role in getting your foot in the door and landing that first date. Women may say (and honestly I might add) that things like personality, humor, values, and career matter way more than height, but if you don't already know the woman you're asking out, she'll accept or reject your offer based primarily on superficial features (like men do as well), with one of the main ones being height.
Men may reject women based on their weight, and it's also a superficial thing, but unlike height, a person's weight does say something about them. You can be bigger and still be healthy; that's not what I'm talking about. But when someone is obese beyond the natural range for a healthy female, that's when it starts to become an issue and is an indicator of other undesirable traits she may have. However, height is something we as humans can't control, so if you're going to judge a person when deciding to accept a first date with them, please go off of other features that tell you something about the person, such as personal hygiene, how they carry themselves (if meeting in person and not on an app) or whether they fall inside a healthy weight and build for their stature and body type.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk, haha
While men judge superficially as well, we at least have a much wider list we accept then females lol. Yes big tits or such might be a great thing, but we'll take a girl who's a 6/10 or who's maybe slightly thick, a short girl or average or tall. Guys will accept a damn hole in the ground lol.
Well I could turn around say can't accept them cus their flat as chess board. But I'm not vain about it politely agree to date and tell them after whether to see them again or not. Never turn someone down if they treating me out as dude regardless of height, age, or social status
you can loose weight. you can’t gain height. apples and oranges
Honestly, as a 5'6'' guy, being short is f'cking lame, even though I've even performed well for my stature, all things considered.
I do like the camera panning back to Courtney. I think the one thing I wish would change, especially with topics like this, is to keep their name and height on the screen. Sometimes, it's hard to track answers when their height was said once and at the beginning of the video.
yes, this. I kept forgetting the height of the various women being interviewed.
I realize this would be a bit of extra work but totally agree!
I didn't see all 10s ... it's not a well-thought-out stance.
If a women is uncomfortable with a shorter guy……then who is the insecure one?
I wouldn't date a woman taller than me and I'm 5'10.5"/5'11.5" it's not insecure it is a preference a short man can't protect a woman a tall man however can and is more attractive.
In college I asked out two different girls in a span of two weeks both rejecting me and said the exact same thing, ‘You’re too short’. I’m 5’5”. They were both like an maybe an inch at most taller than me. It was brutal 😅.
Same height here, Jon. I'm sure that was unpleasant, but at least they were upfront with you and you could move on immediately. They're both best left exactly where they are -- in the past.
Wow well screw them 5”5 is not short that’s pretty tall and that’s coming form a person that’s 6’2
Same height here. I have no issue being with a taller girl, in fact, all but one of my long term girlfriends have been taller than me. That being said, girls can be brutal when rejecting you for your height. They'll usually tell you right off the bat, and I've even had more than one laugh at me.
I hope you just bounced that experience, I'm your height exactly and I've had a lifetime of great dating with the hottest women I encountered in real life. I know a lot of women did rule me out over height, but I can't remember any of them because I was too busy having fun with girls who liked me. I had one fling with a super voluptuous young woman five inches taller than me, she was married to a 6'2 handsome guy who made a ton of money selling pharmaceuticals. She openly f..ked with me about my height (she would say "okay, but you're short!" whenever I jabbed at her when we were joking around), but her face and actions told me she was attracted, and I took full advantage ignoring the short comments, I considered them "sh..t tests", and I enjoyed her body quite a few times by not taking her comments seriously, she would even come over to my place whenever she was free. I simped for a straight 10 I was attracted to when I was young (twenties) and she was always insulting me about my height, but I slept with her regularly for almost two years (she was a bi..tch, but I was young and infatuated so f..k it, lol). I just think most women who say these things are just testing your resilience and being brats, so I don't take it seriously. Don't worry, I only dated women who didn't have any height issues when it came to real ltr's, and the woman I had my kids with never had the slightest issue with my height, even though the guy I took her away from was 6'4. It's all compatability of personalities if you ask me. I actually think women who vocalize the height stuff are funny to listen to, they don't even know what they want like most women, haha.
@@thehairyyam3077 It's absolutely vile how women treat men, especially over things they can't help about their bodies from penis size to height shaming to going bald etc.

‘I’ve never met a man shorter than me’. Meaning ‘I am not interested in a man shorter than me’. And ‘men are intimidated by me’ is code for ‘I can’t find a man willing to tolerate my mental health issues’.
Honestly I'm short, I'm not very dominant and i can accept and understand that's what i seem to society and what society doesn't realise is short men like myself, dont want society (women) to feel bad for us, or date us just to see if it gets them off and "experiment" because they feel they have to.
I can also proudly comment that fat people need to get over themselves, like i have with my height and accept that they are lazy, atleast they can actually control it.
"I've never met a man shorter than me" = "Shorter than me is not a man".
She is 5 foot that could be true
she said that because is with shoes almost 5 or she is around 4' 10" to 4' 11" ...so in her case is probably true....
My father and mother, both 5’7” from Ireland, just happily celebrated their 50th anniversary together. He’s a quiet yet confident fellow who’s never exhibited anything in the way of a Napoleon complex in his life.

Cool story
5'7 is the worldwide average height for men.. its not short as people make it lol. Short would be below 5'5
its the reverse for me, my mom is 5"5 but my dad is 6"2. Im 5"8 fml
I’m the reverse. All of the men on my dads side of the family are at minimum 5’10” (Spaniard blood) with my 1st cousins (male) being 6’1”, 6’3”, 6’2”, and 6’3”. Ffs even my female cousin is 6’1”. Pops is 5’11”. I wish I got his height genetics, cause I’m only 5’9”
A problem that may be happening ( or could happen in the future) is that Courtney Ryan now has videos showing women's bias/delusion on height and money. Some of these people may have seen those videos before their interviews and may be determined not to be seen as "shallow" in the upcoming thousands of views.
Yep 👍 it's rigged 💯
Well, females are master manipulators...
What you're describing is called impression management

I'm 6'3" and tall girls have always made my heart go pitter patter (my spouse is 5'10")! They tend to underestimate their attractiveness because their competition are the petite girls who get most of the attention. I've seen a lot of them slouch their shoulders in public trying to look smaller but they should own it and be proud!
Lol what, petite girls most of the attention? 😂
6’5 bare foot. I like tall girls too.
This is why I don't care for tall women. The vast majority of them have terrible posture because of that insecurity. I don't care about height itself, I just don't want to date a hunchback.
Love tall women, but unfortunately I’m 5’9, so I wouldn’t be their first choice.
The amount of attention that a woman gets is dependent on her attractiveness, not height.
I've dated women taller than me shorter than me wider than me thinner than me older than me and younger than me. Height definitely doesn't matter if, IF, If you have personality, looks, and some mental fortitude. I'm above average in everything, except height and it doesn't stop me from dating, hooking up, and getting treated properly
You say you dated, but was it successfully? Many tall women will try a short guy out (especially if he is flush with cash); doesnt mean she keeps him
@@interspacer4277 well yeah, the one was very very close to a year of exclusive dating and one of the girls I'm seeing now told me in the very beginning that she has a thing for guys shorter than her that can pick her up and since I swept her off her feet right after that, and also put her knees in the crux of my elbow right in front of my couch, she's still eating out of my hands super giddy any time I'm around
So, Step 1) Be hot.
Step 2) Refer to Step 1.
Hooking up?? Before marriage??
cool story bro, you tell it at parties?
As others are saying, love the CourtCam! Something that would be interesting would be to poll men on your social media, then reading those results to the women and asking for their opinions on them.
Keep up the great work 💪🏽
We aren't intimidated by outgoing women. We might be embarrassed by them if they're idea of outgoing is being loud, but we're not intimidated.
Also, I'm 5'8. I had a girlfriend who was 5'10, and we were both fine with it.
Values and alignment are absolutely the most important. Look at Boris and Natasha, they both have sketchy personalities and were totally made for each other.
What an odd Rocky & Bullwinkle reference to make... Well played sir.
I'm tall guy (6.3), and I think that has compensated a little for my lack of social skills and facial attractiveness. If I were short, I think it would be very hard for me 😅
Idk I had alright track record for dating. But since we got more unrealistic media in this generation makes it hard for us short kings attract women
Being tall isn't enough to get positive reactions from women. I'm about 6.5 if I calculated it right and I was rather thin for most of my life (now I am normal).
Positive reactions so far: 0
If you noticed, a lot of short guys tend to have the best personality because they had to in order to make up for not being tall enough. for a lot of girls.
I agree 👍
I am tall, about a 5 or 6 is facial attractiveness, on the lean side. I wouldn't say I have it hard but I wouldn't say have it easy either. I can imagine it would be way harder if I was five or six inches shorter.
You should do one on the men who refuse to date women less than 5'7 and never overweight.. love to see their reactions
Their numbers will be significantly smaller considering how horny and desperate most men(even the good looking ones) are.
It is insane that women will make life decisions related to men based on her height in her highest heels.
Now when you put it that way… it does sound insane haha
If your shorter or make less than her, it will ALWAYS be a problem. Even if they believe they are ok with it, they are not. I've talked with women in my own family about how they're mind works and they will eventually admit the truth about themselves which is fine but let's talk reality, men and women are just so different but society doesn't want you to realize it!
Exactly
I personally know of 3 couples where the female is taller. My friend Danny who's a navy corpsman is 5' 9, and his wife Danielle is 6' 2, and my buddy Deegan's mother is like 6 feet tall, and her husband is like 5' 10, 5' 11, and my buddy Hunter's biological mother who passed away when he was a kid was 6 feet tall, and his dad is like 5' 7 or 5' 8, and his wife now is 5' 9 and they've been together for almost 20 years. I personally find women that are super tall to be very attractive, and I wouldn't be emasculated about it one bit, because being manly isn't a height, it's a mindset.
I know of 2, my brother is 5'11" and his wife is 6'2". Im 5'9" and my girlfriend is 5'10"
I had a classmate in college (we knew of each other in high school) who said she would only date guys 6ft. or higher, even though she was 5 foot herself, because she didn't want "short sons."
TWENTY FIVE years later I ran into her and her family at the mall. She was there with her twin 16 year old daughters, who looked to be about 5'4." Her husband looked to be 6'2." Then I hear "Mom" and see a guy coming around the aisle. It was her son, maybe 20, who was about 5'2," the daughters were definitely taller. Seeing him brought the "short son" memory immediately to mind; and worse, I got the sense my former classmate knew exactly what I was thinking. We both made pleasantries and exchanged business cards, but I never heard from her, and honestly I had no reason to contact her. Life is stranger than fiction.
I really hope all the girls that reject on height have short sons
@@devankurmitra4118. At least in her case, holding out for her height standard seems to have paid off in the sense that she's in a very long term marriage, her daughters are at least of average height, and her husband is over 6 foot; is definitely making over $100k/year; he works out with no "dad bod"; and still has a full head of hair. Not sure but those facts probably describes a man in the top 10%. It's a win for her but that success didn't trickle down to her son.
@@newuser285 yeah her husband would look like a loser infront of guys like Tom cruise and Mark walbherg in real life top 1% it's seems 😂😂😂😂
🤣@@devankurmitra4118
Barring the unspoken "karma" of this story (if it's real), damn, that's so trully awful for that boy. I have a controversial opinion about short guys (especially those very short ones) and about bad looks at large, but i don't know if i could share here.
just cause a guy is taller than you that does not mean hes a black belt or somthing lol
I have seen it on Tinder: a lot of women are saying they’re 6ft tall to ensure the man they match with is over 6ft.
I have often noticed that women who are way shorter than me tell me that I'm not tall enough, whereas women around my height (whether that's slightly shorter or slightly taller) don't care at all.
'I've never met a man shorter than me' just means 'I've never noticed a man shorter than me'.
Or "I've never met a man shorter than me" means "shorter than me is not a man."
The whole "with heels" thing seems like such an important thing to women it's crazy
It's just an excuse to make them look better when they say evil things like that
"I don't want short kids. But height doesn't matter to me".................🙃😜🙄

What he's saying it's right. Women answer questions based on what they think others want to hear, not the truth.
I’m a 5’5” guy. I have always been super attracted to taller women. As far as I have experienced this is exactly what has happened for me. My ex-wife is 5’9”, my tallest girl friend was right at 6”. As far as I know I have never been discriminated for because of hight. Now when I was overweight…. That’s rough.
Do you have a girlfriend now or another wife ? Or have you had trouble finding someone else after your ex wife?
As a short man you can bag and tag tall women but you won't be able to keep them long term, because when a tall guy shows up she's going to feel small and protected its just mother nature at work man.
@@paul1991ish Absolutely. Right on the nose.
@@paul1991ishtrue that but that why it's important have backup jus in case 👍
That is science my friend, really tall woman are actually sometimes attracted to short guys because they dont want the kids to be abnormally tall which is what would happen if she has a kid with a guy that is say 6ft 4 and she is like 6 or 6ft 1. I'm not sure if it's a subconscious thing but I have ofton seen really tall women with short guys. It also works the other way round that short guys will be attracted to really tall girls for the same reason
I never noticed my height until the women I started dating. Other men don't care and we are better at evaluating each other, not based on height. For women however, it was always them who kept bringing it up/being weird about it. Funny enough, it never worked out with those chicks and they were usually very fickle about other things/immature.
Yo same, I never had insecurities about my height before I started dating
I'm 6'2" and I've dated a couple of girls taller than me. I literally didn't give a damn about their height, they couldn't go a day without making a comment about it. It literally took me grabbing them by the face, making them look at me, and telling them that their height means nothing to me for them to stop... and even then, I was the asshole for being "too aggressive" about it despite me reassuring them CONSTANTLY to those points.
I've also seen guy friends of mine that are on the shorter side struggle, and the one thing I can say that girls fail to understand is how tough it is for a guy to "have confidence" when he's constantly beaten down for something he can't help.
From my perspective, girls make the whole situation a lot more troublesome than it needs to be, mainly because they're the ones who make it such a factor in the first place. If a guy cares about height, it's almost certainly because he's had multiple situations come up where he wasn't given a chance or got passed over solely because of his stature. A girl caring about height though... it's so commonplace practically nobody bats an eye even if the way they go about it is damaging.
Definitely one of those things where women could stand to do better.
No way you are 6’2. You dated a couple girls that were taller than you? Tallest girl I’ve ever seen was probably 6’2-6’3. Even if you did the fact that they would complain makes no sense considering the fact only 0.1% of men are probably taller than those abnormally tall girls you dated.

Our heights are assigned to us. There is nothing we can do to change it. Kinda weird to reject someone over something they don’t have control over.

Being short as a man is a huge disadvantage. Women see a man stronger physically and emotionally when he is taller, which is not true. I'm short and I've gotten bullied by them and I stood up to them and they backed off. They only act tough. Size doesn't have to do with intimation. It psychological. Plus, when a woman is short she can wear high heels to cheat her height. Also you better being tall and a bit on the heavy side. At least you can lose that weight than being really skinny and short.
I'm 5'3 and an ectomorph (which means I'm skinny) and I cannot put on any weight or muscle. I have tried everything under the sun and more and have done this for 8 years. If you are tall and heavy, you can cut the weight or just lose it altogether and be fit. Being short and skinny is not good at all, serves no benefits or advantages. It is the worst thing physically to have.
@@Watcherw1 … I was the same as you but it changed at about 22. I ate a lot and started working out at 16 and never stopped. At 5’6 I was 120lbs and ripped when I graduated high school. I slowly added muscle year after year and I was 150-155 solid with abs by late 20s. I’m still the same weight now. Just lift heavy weights and drink protein shakes and I guarantee you will eventually get bigger. I couldn’t gain a pound until about 22.

As a 5'7 guy in a country with quite tall men and women, it is a bit of a challenge. From my experience, it's also a bit about the attitude and vibe you're sending off. 2 of the girls I dated who were around 5'8 or 5'9 told me that they would not have INITIALLY chosen me. I think it's a lot about how we make her feel. Height matters to a lot of women, but there are also those who don't care that much. We just see more of the bad women in social media.
Are you from the Netherlands by any chance?
When someone says they live in a country with tall women, you just know it's Netherlands 🇳🇱
Women love to spout off how tall their man is.
I remember a neighbor who was in her late 50s spouting off about how tall her new boyfriend was. He was fresh out of prison and also in his late 50s.
She would brag how he "once was 6'2" but now had lowered to 6' because of his prison hardships... 🤡
If a female tells you that you would not have been picked by then initially, go for another girl bro. You should only want a female who sees you as their top option or they will inevitably leave for the bad boy/Chad they sexually desire, or end up cheating
Height is an asset.
As a fellow short-king who been single since Covid, this was a really good interview!
Who hasn't seen these before, but this was well-covered and really helps women see how shallow height is or how projected their own height insecurities are affecting them. And you should probably know that roughly 85% of you girls are going to have to settle for a guy under 6ft because you don't wanna get to your late 20's thinking "Why can I not find a tall handsome guy?"
It's like boob/ass size for guys, but we know there aren't 75%+ women out there with perfect big boobs/asses, and we don't have the same insecurities about ourselves in those features, so it's easier for men to not think about it at all when choosing a partner.
Honestly, most women don't really care if a guy is 6 feet or not as long as he's taller than them
Can you interview men about their weight preferences in women?
She would never do that.
"Hoeflation:
Today's men must work 5 times harder than their grandfathers for women that are 20 times worse than their grandmothers."

Grandpa had to buy her a drink and she was all his
Asking short girls ON CAMERA is not a reliable indicator. Of course they know that the moment they say that they like tall guys they would get roasted so they will try not to say it (they struggled a lot with that between 10:00 and 15:30) but look how absolutely specific they are about the numbers and how resolute they are in their answers about wearing heels, do you really think they haven't obsessed over the matter before?
22:31 it's not a stereotype of not opening up, it is speaking from experience. Anytime I opened up or shared emotion with a partner, it was always used against me or shared with multiple people when it was meant to be just between us. Honestly, that's why men don't open up.
Never cry in front of woman.
12:02 "Height isn't that relevant and society places too many (much) emphasis on the height factor..." Let's not lump and confuse society to women's preference to height. I don't see men putting "emphasis" on that, only women do this. She shifted accountability on society but not on female in general. This is the most pc response knowing Courtney Ryan's channel can reach a lot of viewer's.
It's truly pathetic.
I think people forget that social media isn't real life. Men think you have to be a 6'4" giga chad to get a woman. Women think $100k is the bare minimum to live a comfortable life. When all you see is the highlight reel of someone else's life that is all you focus on and none of the hard times it took to get where you are now it'll make your mindset defeatist and cynical.
I've been preaching that on this channel for almost two years now.
What you probably see in most of those posts is fake people who probably have zero net worth, maxed out credit cards and live paycheck to paycheck.
People seem to forget that social media are just platforms, the same warped individuals that use these apps or the women that appear on these channels that are sitting penis size shaming men to suicide, are the exact same nasty ass women that are outside in the real world.
Don't think these women outside are anymore forgiving or less shallow, as its just the same penis size shaming girth obsessed height shaming nonsense.
If you aren't decent dick sized, then expect the vast majority of these soulless hoes to go instantly running back to degrade, dehumanize, body shame and publically humiliate your body to all their skeevy rat penis size shaming obsessed friends just to drive you to mental illness.

Also, 10:38 was a breath of fresh air.
Hello how are you doing today?
Why guys in comments are so angry, they literally said they dated and would date a short guy
Hey Courtney great video. I have a suggestion on how you can improve a video like this. Have the women’s height, name and age on the bottom or top corner of the screen whenever they pop up. This is important so that your audience can reference certain pieces of key information while they answer questions. Keep up the good work!!
22:44 Out of the two relationships I've been in, I've been told "Stop being the soft boy and start being a hard man" in one of them, and the other started the sentence with "A real man would...." when it came to acting tough and dominant in public
I'm 6'2 and happy I can have options not limitations. I do prefer women who are 5'3" or above. If you are barely at the 5ft mark and say you only like guys over 6ft I wouldn't be interested.
I'm 5'9, but I've always felt that even if I were over 6 feet I wouldn't be interested in the short women who say they'll only date a man over 6 feet. It just displays their lack of maturity and focus on superficial things.
@Huntstyle Very true and it's also pretty ridiculous. I've been with a few women who are 5'3" and I have had no problem with that height difference. I've met a few women who were barely 5ft and they look at me like I'm a freak of nature because of my size compared to them and it's kind of uncomfortable to me. Those same short women who make that demand for a guy to be over 6ft is laughable. Go find a guy closer to your eye level.
📠
6'8 guy here(2.06meters) here to tell y'all to forget about your height and just live your life, I've struggled with dating just as much as my shorter friends. The first thing women will notice is your attitude and your character, just try to be the person you'd like to actually hang around with for the next 40 years and you'll be your best version, both for attracting women and for being happy with yourself.
Not to sound biased just cause I’m an average height guy but i genuinely feel like most girls 5’8 or below be looking more gorgeous than the more taller ones. No disrespect. Just stuff I’ve noticed personally in my life. But there are always exceptions to that.
The use of the term “short king” is getting pretty cringey
The basis for attraction for women is what her friends agree is attractive.
The ex wife was a couple inches taller than I and not at all was that a contentious issue. She’s now living with her mother helping pay the bills like a partner should 🤷🏻
If a woman has an issue about height you only care about what others might be thinking. It’s like a man dating an overweight woman somewhat ashamed of what others might be thinking or why strangers are staring in public.
Cope
I’m 5’10” and I LOVE tall women, lol. I’ll admit that most women do care somewhat about height but the more you show confidence and the more you show assertiveness the more they’ll change their mind about you. Also, I eventually tell them that height doesn’t matter much when they’re on their knees or on their backs…🤫🤷🏻♂️

I watched this out of a sense of sheer, macabre masochism.
Now I've seen it all the way through, I feel almost sad. Is that why the girls in school never even saw me - because I was too short?
In a way, I can thank Hecate and the goddesses that I dodged some bullets there, because I've enjoyed a long and happy life, free from the pain of living with someone who might have hated me; free from the expectations that I should try and be someone I am not, or not to be choosy because "I don't have the options."
I could have had a long relationship, if I'd been taller. I could have spent my life being so miserable.

That’s awesome man. Curious, did you struggle with that before being proud of it? Asking because I’ve never thought of my height (5’11”) being something I was proud of. Could be the old saying, “Privilege is invisible to those who have it.”
@@ObscureOcelot17 It's something that I never had an issue with, you can't do anything about your height. I have been rejected by women long ago because I was short but it doesn't bother me. My height is my height. It's about how you carry yourself in my perspective
Never cared about height but nowadays a lot of women do
a man 3 inches talller than u should be fine
But it's not
Lol let's ask men about a woman's weight
Why ask women under 5'4" if they would date a shorter guy? They don't even know anyone shorter than them.
As a guy who's 6'4, I don't think I could be with a woman who's under 5'6. At that point, the height difference becomes physically awkward.
Also, the real reason women go for tall guys is we have long arms and big hands. Being able to stroke her hair and give her a foot rub at the same time is a huge turn on for many women.
Yeah man, I'm 6'3 and I always used to hate taking photos in bars because I had to lean down or crouch down while grabbing their shoulder. Being this height is not as great as many guys think.
I can understand if it's a preference, but what I cannot understand is when the man you are dating checks off all the other boxes like he has a good job, he's responsible, decent looking, hard working, doesn't cheat, and you have women that will still throw all that away for a taller man. That's incredibly shallow and nonsensical. I think our society's definition of short men is incredibly warped.
On a global scale, the average height of men is around 5 feet 9 inches, while the average height of women is around 5 feet 4 inches. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the average age-adjusted height for American men 20 years old and up is 69.1 inches during the years 2015 to 2016. That’s about 5 feet 9 inches tall. This means that roughly men who are 5'7ft and below can be considered short if we are being fair. Despite whatever height preference you may have calling a man short for being 5'8ft to 5'11ft is just wrong and says a lot about you as a person. It sounds like more of a fetish than a preference if you ask me. I'd also like to add that some women still choose to date horrible men even though there are pretty of good tall men waiting around the corner because they don't have "swag" or are deemed "corny".
Those statistics are the same regarding money and penis size, society is changing factually accurate data and instead relying on personal preference and I think the worse thing is people condoning this terrible behavior. Women get on code all the time when men have a preference about behavior, weight, and sex. It's time for men to start getting on code and stop allowing overly vain and superficial women to get away with this type of behavior. Call them out when you hear them, stand up for your short brothers in return they will stand up for you. I want to clarify that not all women think this way and there are plenty of women that don't act like extremists regarding height. Find those women. Men like women that like them.
Those are not global averages. Those are American averages. The global mean male height is 5'7".
@@newwaveinfantry8362 I appreciate the clarification, but I did say american, but what your saying still stands. If what you're saying is 100% true then the matter is even worse. Men who are 5'7ft to 5'11ft are being called short and "short kings" when that's just average height for a man. Tall men are rare not the average. I hear certain women talk about the oversexualization of women, toxic masculinity, and no objectifying comments, height preferences which gets accepted by the masses within our society with no questions.
However, whenever a man talks about a woman's bad behavior, weight, personality, and appearance he's labeled as insecure and all these other horrible names. The double standard is rampant and the bias has set in. Let's unpack this topic a little bit more... I've also heard the excuse about women wanting to wear heels with her man...okay so wear the damn heel then. If he's confident in himself then just wear the heels and if someone makes fun of you or him for being together, check them on the spot or just ignore them. They're arrogant, stupid and probably jealous of that couple's relationship if you ask me.
There's also another alternative, stop wearing heels all the time. Why are 6 inch heels the default? Are there 2-4 inch heels? Wear those sometimes, alternate between the super tall ones and mid height ones, but see in order to do that the women your dealing with would have to take into consideration her boyfriend or husband feeling on the matter. If he's a very confident man he'll probably never say anything to his girlfriend because he's too proud, wants to make you happy and most importantly wants her to look her best.
As for hyper insecure men, I'd say that if a man is 5'7ft to 5'11ft and pulls a good looking woman whose 5'8ft to 6'0ft, you've won the damn lottery. They need to take their place in the circle of life and stop worrying about their flaws and insecurities, lol. Some men and women might even need therapy of this whole height issue. It's okay to have a preference, but when it becomes dogma and the end all be all then it becomes a delusion and unrealistic. No shame or hate towards men who are tall and very tall either. I think that we as men need to work together regardless of race, religion, sex, gender, height, weight or any of that other superficial bullsh$t. You're thoughts?
The reason shorter women look for really tall men is because they feel more vulnerable so they try to compensate by having a guy that’s much bigger and stronger so they feel safer.. I will say though, women having a height preference is completely fine but being rude or dismissive about it isn’t.
The fact that you ask women who are clearly not in the top 14.5% of women about their delusional preferences is a tell in itself. Would you ask average men if they prefer supermodels or bikini models? No, because it's ridiculous.
Height, money, status, looks, etc. None of those outside factors matter if you’re not with the right person that doesn’t treat you right.
Accurate.
@@CourtneyRyan unfortunately all of those factors do matter and we all know this. stop the cap.
This is an oxymoron. As height, money, and status always come first anyway 🤷♂️ Quite often before being the right person. Which is why a lot of relationships don’t work
@@lockyp204 The real oxymoron is height, money, and status before all else. Totally agree with you though on it being why relationships don’t work, too many people get wrapped up into material things and want to live the luxury lifestyle.

First, many thanks for posting this video Courtney and especially thanks to all your interviewees for their honesty. I'm sure it wasn't always what we guys wanted to hear from them but the truth is always better even if it's a hard pill to swallow. This is by far THE number one insecurity that eats away at we men. Worse, our height is controlled by genetics over which we obviously had absolutely no say and is nothing we can do anything about. You can always diet and work out to lose weight, but you can't gain height no matter what you do. (In fact, my family doctor told me men will actually lose 1 or 2 inches of height as we get older.) One of your interviewees nailed it on the head, we have been force-fed our entire lives by the media on what mating ideals should be and that informs our agendas and criterias of what our mates should be. Never mind that they are crushing to both men and women due to the impossibility of living up to them by both sexes. It really comes down to how open-minded the individual is in front of you. There's nothing wrong with having an agenda or certain criteria as the woman who was considering the genetic effect on her children demonstrates. What's wrong is being dishonest with yourself and others about it.
What it all comes down to for me is that if the woman across me isn't open-minded because she has criteria that she absolutely needs met and she will not bend on it, then it's best we both move on. Obviously that hurts in the short run which I can attest to from experience, but in the long run it's far better for both parties. All I can tell everyone is that I've seen some women get those criteria met and wound up in successful relationships and marriages and I've seen others get them met and still wind up absolutely miserable. Life is a total crapshoot. Whether your criteria are met or not, there are never any guarantees. Good luck to all of you out there.
I like how your channel has pretty reasonable and relatable ladies. Crazies drive clicks but doesn't help healthy understanding
I'm 5'6" , 5'7" on a good day. I've dated a girl who was 6'. I asked her if me being shorter bothered her, she asked me back, if her being taller bother me? I said no and she smiled back. Didn't work out in the end but she was very sweet.
