I think there is a bizarre phenomenon going on... when asked what the ideal male height is?, a lot of us say "6 foot". And you are right, 5' 11" to 6' is considered the most common preferred height by women. I also found a study where the average preferred height by women was 5' 11.3"
Yet, when I posted this poll, as expected, most people would rather be 6' 1", 6' 2", or above, even though many of those same people, when asked "what is the ideal male height?", would say "6 foot"
Yeap, it is weird phenomenon. I am not lying and the women are not lying. it is fact, just as there are four seasons in a year. I always present both sides of the argument, and I cannot come to any conclusion that is different. I am forced by the data I have found, that women think 6' is the ideal. (and maybe 180 cm in japan)
Reason for this?
Girls think that above average is fine. no need to be too tall. most of them cant even tell a 6' from 6'2 either. some girls would think 6'2 is too tall, ie, those who are tall (eg 5'10) and don't wanna be dominated in everyday affairs (bed is a different story)
GUYS think taller = better. they feel superior when taller than someone.. more masculine.. or whatever.. I posted a misterpoll survey, I think guys said the best height was about 6'2, or 6'3.... girls said it was 6'.
It is interesting how guys and girls think very differently what is the ideal height.
The same goes for penis size. Males think bigger = better, but if you read the forums, quite a few girls have said that average is better, cos' too big is too uncomfortable.......
