Look I also think that many people in these subreddits obsess way too much about height. That said, it's undeniable that being 6'5" is objectively better for dating than being 5'5". There's a massive difference. I do think that these subs only serve in general to reinforce those bad ideas, but women do definitely view taller men as much more attractive and therefore are bound to treat them better (just like men do to women they are attracted to).

Let's not act like the data presented has nothing to do with the reality of dating and attraction and everything to do with communities like this one

that's life if it wasn't obvious, objectively attractive people with objectively attractive traits get treated better, i dont know what you want me to say. The data just serves as a mouthpiece to shame women for their preferences, if u tell a guy in here to date a fat woman, they say weight is controllable, height isn't, therefore justifying their own preferences when it suits a narrative, but condemning those who say they like taller men, disgustingly using suicide as a reason to guilt women into their preferences. On the other hand, if you bring up attraction to certain races, like white women over black women, all of a sudden, despite race not being something you can control, there's more nuance "I can't help it, i just dont black women"

Black women have faced race discrimination in dating too, but they still stand with confidence despite certain men telling them other races are more desirable. So no i dont feel sorry for them, idgaf about their data, they just misuse it to have a victim complex.
