I really don&#8217;t think that someones height should be an issue.\u00a0 Do a few inches here or there make that much of a difference if you&#8217;ve got chemistry?\u00a0 Of course, if you are a very tall women then you are going to find it more difficult to date if you are seeking someone significantly taller than you.<\/p>\n<p>So why are taller men in such great demand and do the facts back it up?<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a thought process that taller men are perceived as more sexually attractive and likely to produce more children. Interestingly enough,\u00a0 men seem to prefer shorter women.\u00a0 Those under 5ft 3 are statistically more likely to be married than those of average height or more. So that&#8217;s why men and women haven&#8217;t evolved to be the same height.<\/p>\n<p>A study this week showed that women who marry men of average height are more likely to have children.\u00a0 This goes against all previously held beliefs and could perhaps dispel the myth that tall men are more likely to be better breeders.\u00a0 The suggestion was that this could be that men of average height tend to get married sooner than others.\u00a0 So the longer you&#8217;ve been married then the more chance of having kids.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s an interesting study.\u00a0 What do you think about it all?\u00a0 We&#8217;d like to hear your thoughts, so please do add a comment on this blog.<\/p>\n<p>Good luck!<\/p>\n<p>James Preece &#8211; The Dating Guru<\/p>\n<p>www.asiansinglesolution.com<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Height is often a very import factor in dating.
