First of all, women (and people in general) have absolutely no clue, on the conscious level, what do they really want. It is all about feelings, impressions and past experience - they might have their "types" and preferences, but it is all gone in a second when confronted with reality. Of course when you corner them with this direct question, they will give you a predictible answer ("Would you prefer to be wealthy and healthy or rather not?" - "Yess"), but it will not give us any meaningful results.
Before you start to flame me for spreading bs, I have to admit, that height is one of the basic factors in determining male attractiveness. It is a fact, you can argue that there are exceptions, various methods to overcome it (money, muscles, charisma), but it all sums up to the general "score", which height is a big part of. Instead of asking women, I would rather stick to objective, measurable facts. We are different, we have different ambitions, goals and possibilities.
I would initiate the following scale:
- 1 point for occasionally meeting woman witch you are taller than (you are still shorter than other man, but you are the tallest person behind the closed door).
- 2 points for being taller than average woman in your country (most girls will look up to you).
- 4 points for "almost average" (most people no longer consider you a short person).
- 5 points for being average (so little and so much).
- 6 points for above average (some people start to consider you a tall person).
- 8 points for noticeably standing out in your country/local community.
- 10 points for being exceptionally tall, no matter where you go (Sweden, Netherlands).
You score the same points for other qualities as well (X for being fit, Y for being rich, Z for being famous), but the scale collects the height milestones, which some of us are born with, some may gain by exceptionally high effort, and some will never achieve in their lifes, therefore should rather focus on different qualities.
