WoodcrestMayor: Ever heard of recessive/dominant gene?


If your man has "shortness" in his genes,it can be dominant in your children.
Marrying a coconut tree kinda husband isnt gonna guarantee and child's height.
We can only guess and gamble.

I pity your husband.

He is a living compromise you made to satisfy your selfish need and fear of missing out.

In my opinion, you do not love him, you love the way he loves you.

God forbid that is my portion in life.

I would send a girl like you back to the people you really want.

All you young boys, note: there is no benefit in marrying any women

- Who was not attracted to you initially or at the first few interactions

- Who would die for a different kind of guy from you if they gave her the chance

- Who is only after you because others will not satisfy her needs

- Who would only consider you when the aesthetics is in decline

Fck that!

The phrase "I gave him/a guy a chance" is an insult in my world. Any girlfriend/wife I hear who dares use that on me is a goner.

It subconsciously unveils a hidden psychology.
my bro,thats the summarization of live,you better live with,a girl is attracted to you because of money,why not treat her thence,

height is a first impression stuff. when you start getting to know someone, the last thing you ll recognize is the person's height, same goes to beauty.

I always laugh when some ladies think that being picky is for them alone. lol! the plain truth is, men are more picky when it comes to moving to the permanent site, except maybe some random kind of relationship with no sturdy strings attached. just like them ladies, we men also care about height, beauty, intelligence, character, complexion and some go a long way to do some background check on the lady before fully convinced.

gone at those days, I was height freak, I don't get caught engaging conversations with short ladies (anything below 5.6ft) , it was a death to me then. but right now , in as much as I'm still very picky, height and complexion are not really included no more.

It's unfortunate that most of we men have given ladies desperate impressions , hence they think we can't live without them. my simple formula hasn't changed , It's "you don't break a sweat when working with the right tool" . meaning, when you approach a lady the first time, common sense should be able to tell you if its what give in or waste a second time for. As for me , I don't go where I'm uninvited.

according to my big bro " no too look that yansh, na eye it for big, nothing , but only shyte nai dey come out from their.

@op, lol...you are right, its not just about tall shaa even though some tall guys tend to be different (in every rule, there must be an exception)....and scientifically, any man that has a height of: 6.0 and above don't usually have high IQ/creativity trait (you can count the great men u know or hear abt n go figure their heights)grin

Reason most intelligent, entrepreneurial and wealthy men fall within the height of: 5 - 5.9- this height comes with high intellectual ability, creativity, smartness, great wisdom/humour.

6.0ft and above height usually have high athletic ability but low entrepreneurial/academic traits.

This isn't me talking, if u doubt me, make a research: the taller a man is, the lesser his IQ/creativity.

Onyiridike: I am a Nigerian lady with a lot of experience about life especially when it comes to relationship and marriage. Experience is NOT just passing through a situation but what you did with the situation.

Obviously, our young ladies always list ridiculous criteria that a man they will date/marry MUST possess. Among those ridiculous criteria, height is always a priority. Gone are the days when character is placed above physical appearance.

When I was an undergraduate, a certain young man approached me and told me how he loved me and wanted to date me. He is an enterprising young man, very intelligent and handsome. However, he is not very tall; just 5ft. 7 inches in height. Of course, young ladies don't take decisions independently. This is why they are easily influenced by friends and relatives. My friends then said: "Never! My man MUST be 6ft and above, so tell him capital NO". I rejected the young man.

Today, he is happily married with a lady who is by far more beautiful and talented than me. I almost shed tears on their wedding day. Meanwhile, all the so-called very tall men that I dated are ONLY interested in my vagina.
So far I have learnt the following:

1. Most tall men believe that their height is a 'master' key to every ladies heart and therefore, their ONLY achievement is ' I am a tall dude and ladies are dieing for me'.

2. Most tall guys are NOT caring because they have this notion that a lady should count herself lucky to date them.

3. I am yet to understand that unique or remarkable thing about tall men.

Fortunately, I repented because it occured to me that all those times, I was ONLY playing my friend's script. I wanted to feel among and brag that my boyfriend is equally tall. I gave a guy who is not very tall a chance and I started enjoying my paradise on earth. We are married now. All my life, I have not come across such a wonderful person. He has it all:

1. He is God-fearing and generous.

2. He is handsome and a great orator

3. He is educated and intelligent

4. He cooks for me when I am tired (caring)

5. He satisfies me sexually ( oh! What a heavenly feeling)

6. He got a good dress sense

7. He is social

8. Among others

I am not in any way trying to say that tall guys are bad. As a lady, I am only advising other Nigerian ladies to see a man beyond height. The height issue is over-hyped and even unnecessary. You may NOT get a second chance like me.

Finally, based on my experience, I have come up with a quote:

"A man is NOT known by his height but by his heart (bravery) and meritorous achievements".
Your argument about tall guys lacks enough weight to buttress ur argument.At best I will call it a hasty generalisation therefore a fallacious statement stirred up by emotion to justify ur being married to a short man who can walk tru a crowd unnoticed while focusing on only ‎u without any chances of a side glance cos no lady but ‎u wants him.So I say he is forever indebted to ‎u for picking him among taller men.Don't let it get to ur head cos short men are known world over to have unhealthy pride undecided

Nah...i guess the title should be "what height do you consider as short?"




Seen some 5 2'' girls dreaming of 6ft and above guys.
I think d height tin is a lil' overrated.
It would av been good if they weren't mouthing it for every1 to hear.
Some guys are here saying they are tall and romantic...thank God for your lives.But let the truth be said,some guys ride on height to treats girls anyhow...who's fault?The girls' of course.Ask dem abt their dream guy and the first tin most say is 'tall,dark and handsome'...has become a cliche of some sort.
Even if it's d most important criteria to you,dont make it sound like "your height is your ticket"...just make sure u're tall and u've scaled the main hurdle...girls

JoanJohnson: I also had that issue with tall guys. I always anticipated a tall guy for my husband but my present man is far from tall, he is short but caring to the extreme. I came over it when my aunty gave me a scripture to read. All my follow ladies still waiting for a tall or a particular kind of physical attribute of a man should please read 1 Samuel 16:7.

For those of you who don't have bibles... grin

The OP so touched me as I've been rejected twice for guys much taller than I am, which led me to the conclusion that to Nigerian young ladies height is first on their list

But then why do women have these totally unnecessary criterias and many later complain that the guy is a jerk, a womanizer etc. you didn't see all this before you got involved or you didn't care at the moment?
