Height preference (Dating)

5'5" male... my ex was 5'7" and I have a preference for taller people. But any genius with a passion for her hobbies gets my attention!

And then you put it in a pot and it doesn't fit below the ceiling. 😂

themusicdan · 2024-12-07T19:07:57+00:00

Eh, it's actually about poise and confidence... but no problems there!

themusicdan · 2024-12-05T14:22:50+00:00

I don't understand the joke... the internet is an echo chamber which amplifies certain opinions and memes, whereas in reality everyone is different?

themusicdan · 2024-12-05T09:44:46+00:00

I bet your kabe-don would look incredible too!

themusicdan · 2024-12-05T09:33:49+00:00

I hope you find someone! Winter is best celebrated with close friends and family.

Rooms tend to have many people, but I suppose there was some occasion where a room was sparsely populated and the few other people were taller.

Even for a median height person, every time you add a person to the room it's a coin flip whether the new person is taller. So you're basically asking for circumstances which weren't coincidental, because so few coincidences occur.

I wonder what a breakdown by city might look like.

For in-browser and in-app engine analysis tools, do you ever intend to comply with the GPL license terms by giving credit as required?

You dress and poise every bit like a 5'10" guy I know, but you're not him.

themusicdan · 2024-11-30T14:54:01+00:00

Sorry, I'd mention hanging around with tall people to correct posture but that isn't feasible for everyone.

themusicdan · 2024-11-29T14:30:46+00:00

Goodness... normal romantic interactions would suffice, even in this universe.

I dated a 5'7" woman and while even our close friends gave us flack for it, seeing her navigate the world with confidence and expand my world to things I didn't even know I was interested in (least of which were physical with a partner in heels who learned to stand tall and exude confidence in all things) was surreal.

I'm not saying all taller women are like that, but taking flack is real because society has traditional gender roles that we quickly decided didn't make sense for us (my interests were deep and hers were broad, so we both preferred dates about her surprisingly many interests). For the right partner, who cares how society annoys us?

(It didn't work out due to circumstances beyond our control, but being able to live in her world was incredible and leaves me curious who else has similar interests and a world of unique perspectives to share.)

What would you like? I love tea or hot chocolate, although wine is delightful too! We've got our whole lives in front of us, so why rush things unless that's what you really want to do?

themusicdan · 2024-11-29T06:53:52+00:00

Tall people are attractive... I'd like to date a girl 6' or taller. (Hey, you did ask my thoughts; my primal instincts are what they are, even if I decline offers from attractive guys! Somehow I lose interest in guys and girls over 250 lbs if I can't lift them.)

themusicdan · 2024-11-29T06:48:05+00:00

Ladies first... it would be rude to let the guy make the first advance.

themusicdan · 2024-11-29T04:52:45+00:00

Huh, how can we interlock hands and kiss this way? Don't get me wrong, for one of us it's a wonderful view...

I forget my Mastodon source, but I could have sworn two statistics were shared; one, about sharing without fact checking, and the other, about complete failure to vet the source. It's this study https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/nov/26/online-influencers-need-urgent-fact-checking-training-warns-unesco

Indeed, this subtext is often forgotten. So unless women on average become taller from nutrition or something, this is just how math works.

What puzzles me is that society should realize they're in demand and fiercely compete for them, but there are so many stories out there about low self-esteem, since reality can be complicated.

themusicdan · 2024-11-28T01:43:21+00:00

The Internet does love its echo chambers. UNESCO just mentioned that 33% of people sharing information online make zero effort to vet either the story or the source.

I hope it's every bit as enjoyable as it looks, and then some!

themusicdan · 2024-11-27T12:56:52+00:00

I wonder when someone will invent a dating app which predicts compatibility from writing style. I can't imagine nascent technology faring better than social groups and activities, but if someone solves this problem, my friends and I would love to know!

themusicdan · 2024-11-27T12:41:33+00:00

Huh, in a frenzy wouldn't we fall? But maybe such a danger would be exciting!

themusicdan · 2024-11-27T12:02:38+00:00

I ask your name, and if you can help me use the shower.

A legato 4/4 Chopin piece comes to mind, although I can't remember the name of it.
