Default How tall are the men?

We had a general observation of height of men on swinger sites. Not trying to offend anyone, we thought a poll would be best way to prove or disprove this. Jess prefers tall men (lucky for me) and this is something she looks at closely. HELP This is our first poll hope it works

Interesting! I'm 6'2" and couldn't help being amazed that I'm in a high percentage. But why are there so few that are 6'3"?

Hubby is 6'5 and I am 5'11 so height is one of the first things I notice. We are members on two sites and it is rare to see a profile with the man over 6'2. Most seem to be 6' to 6'2.

I also prefer tall men - despite being only 5'2" myself. My husband is exactly one foot taller than me (6'2").

Default Re: How tall are the men?

I'm only 5"3 but I do like my men at least 6' or so. We have noticed that alot of men say in the profile that the are tall and LOL when you meet em you say "oh really". I feel better with a taller man. Male D is 6'2" and I love it.

I too like tall men. Bear is 6'4, and he is one of the tallest men at our club. Most men there are just 6'. I am only 5'2, so we look funny slow dancing, but things seem to even out in bed!

Default Re: How tall are the men?

I LOVE tall men!! But I find very few that are compatible AND TALL at the same time. My SO is 6'1, not overly tall, but tall enough to make my 5'9 feel great. I was married along time to a man that was almost 4 inches shorter than me and I just can't get myself back there (sorry short guys but you just dont float my boat!). When all is said and done I prefer 6 feet and over but have met a couple very nice gentlemen that only fell about 5'11 or so and they were adorable!

I'm 6'4" and it sure comes in handy when you need something from the top shelf

Being tall gets you noticed for sure but there's some downside to it
(my fellow 6'2" + guys know what I'm talking about).

Just remember all of the fellas who walked on the moon were well under 6 feet . . . and they'd never let my stretched out frame in a fighter jet. So bein' big don't mean doin' better.

I'm only 5'7", which sometimes does have it's disadvantages. In business I've had taller men try to intimidate me with their size, or treat me like a child. More then once I've met a client and the first thing he says is "you sounded taller on the phone."

I console myself with the thought that like hilltop says, most alll the great fighter aces and racers (with the exception of Dan Gurney of course) are less then 5'9".

Please explain.


MrLM is 6' and I look him straight in the eyes when I'm wearing boots and heels; I stand at 6' (or more) at those times. Because of this a man between 6'2" and 6'4" is my ideal fantasy.

My favorite swing partner is 6'4" and he is also the first partner I had, so I feel spoiled by him. Around here there seem to be so few men 6' or taller. I would never disqualify a man because he is shorter than 6' although I will say that being real tall - pro basketball tall - is a turn off to me, so I'd probably be more attracted to a very short man than a very tall one. When I'm wearing my heels I stand taller than most of the men I've swung with, but I found them very sexy men and great fun to be with.

I am 6'5" and E is 5'9", so I guess we are both on the taller side. E likes it so she can wear any size heels.

Hey but when you we are laying down are we all about the same height

Default Re: How tall are the men?

I'm the only 5'3" up there and Mrs. Alura is 5'9". I like tall ladies, but some of those average-height ladies can look real good in a bikini. Then again, those timy, petite chicks are as cute as they come... and since I've never played basketball with a swing-partner, height hasn't mattered much.

Our last playcouple were the same heights that we are, sexes reversed, of course. When we went out to dinner we swapped partners before we went into the restaurant. The wait-staff always thought Mrs. Playmate and I were married and vice versa. It was fun. Once in a while we might steal a quick kiss from our playmates and people thought nothing of it.

Mrs. Alura once said to me, "I like to measure a man from the bottom of his heart to the top of his mind." I knew, at that instant, that I had to marry her.

Default Re: How tall are the men?

Hmmm......I see I am all alone at taller than 6'5". What a difference an inch makes.

A very intersting poll, as height is a topic of discussion for us.

Mrs. Newabcouple loves tall men.....it is definitely one thing we look for.

We have found a hopefully compatible couple where the Mr. is 6'8" and hope to meet up with them in the near future.....that could be a lot of fun! Both the Mrs' are 5'8", so we should look quite the foursome out on the town!

Cheers

Default Re: How tall are the men?

I look for men that are taller than me...and I'm 5'3. That leaves the door open for a lot of guys..... facelick

Drew is 5'10, which to me, is perfect. Tall enough to make me feel petite beside him, but not so tall that sex in the shower is awkward.

Default Re: How tall are the men?

I'm 5'3" and I don't like guys too tall. No taller than 5'11" - not that I would kick someone out of bed. But I just think it's better when he's not too tall. The boyfriend is about 5'10", which I think is just perfect. I can still wear heels and be just a tad shorter than him.
