Do you feel my attraction to tall men is wrong? Should I pretend I don’t like them?
Why limit yourself to them only, when you could possibly be attracted to someone shorter than 6 feet. Just saying, you could be missing out.
This is one of the reasons Christian dating is more difficult than secular dating.
Secular women: "He must be handsome, slim, and 6 feet tall" (I fall pretty short of the height requirement).
Christian women: "He must be handsome, slim, and 6 feet tall....and...be Christian"
In the latter, there's a mix of both secular and Christian standards.
Guess he can't be a shorter, Christian?
No offense, Bella, as long as we live on Earth, these superficial criteria will be prominent....even among the Christians.
I get it. I passed on the advice not to date co-workers for a few reasons."Don't date co-workers"
"Don't date friends"
"Don't date friends sisters"
"Don't date girls from church."
etc. etc.
Is there anyone it's a good idea to date? I get sick of constantly hearing "it's a bad idea to date the girl you know from XXX"
I always hear this kind of stuff & honestly, it's pretty discouraging b/c it seems like that leaves pretty much no one.
Definitely risks, but I think some of those risks are possible w/ trying to date any womanI get it. I passed on the advice not to date co-workers for a few reasons.
And if she hits you with an HR complaint for sexual harassment, you can be quickly fired. If you are fired, you may have to explain that when interviewing for a new job. I don't recommend getting in that spot if you can help it.
- If you date and are having a fight, you still have to work together.
- If you date and break up, you still have to work together.
- If you date and break up and she decides to date someone else at the office, you three still have to work together.
- If you ask her out and she doesn't reciprocate, she can hit you with an HR complaint for sexual harassment.
- If she decides to break it off and you persist, she can hit you with an HR complaint for sexual harassment.
- If you decide to break it off and she wants to spite you in any way, she's got the goods on you, and can use that information to fabricate an excuse to hit you with an HR complaint for sexual harassment, or threaten you with that if you don't do what she wants.
yep, but ThisIsMe, don't take offense to it to what she says. Everyone has their preferences. & preferences don't mean what you'll end up w/As long as men are able to be just as shallow.
As long as men are able to be just as shallow.
They have uniquely inconvenient and potentially damaging ramifications in a workplace environment. It's your choice whether you want to risk it or not. But, if you're the kind of guy who has to rely on work as a potential environment for meeting a wife, do you really have what it takes to handle one of those consequences if the relationship doesn't work out?Definitely risks, but I think some of those risks are possible w/ trying to date any woman
I'll add it to the list of 50 other places to meet girls you shouldn't date.They have uniquely inconvenient and potentially damaging ramifications in a workplace environment.

Is it only shallow when height is involved or does it include other preferences?
Your desire for someone younger
Physically attractive
And physically fit
Is what?
ETA: I have no problems with preferences as you’re aware. But I think we should be mindful of calling one stance and avoiding the same with others.
I don't know where you got the notion that I was engaging in double standards. I said in my very post that men should be allowed to be just as "shallow".
I don’t think either is shallow and your thread on the mind thread proves this point. We like what we like. And that’s okay. You can’t force the issue.
I must come from a long genetic line that doesn't get dates.I don't think it's shallow either..
I just want everything to be equal. If a woman can say something that will ruin a man's day.. I want a man to be able to do the same.. without only him being called sexist.
You come from a long genetic line of women being selective for tall traits and I a long line of men being selective for women at their fertile peak. We both can't help how we feel. Thousands/millions of years has shaped that particular part of our psychology.
I must come from a long genetic line that doesn't get dates.
Ugh, I have a nerdy question for you I want the atheist/agnostic in you in particular to answer, but it's too nerdy to ask.Lol, they all had to be successful with a woman at least once.

The women in my family are tall. They selected mates with comparable height. Understandably so.
You can find attractiveness in all guises. But we’re naturally drawn to certain qualities.
I am naturally attracted to boxomy women, but I don't limited myself to only them. I have dated my share of small chested women as well, found them equally as attractive.
And height, I don' t care how tall or short a woman is.
