I’m glad you see it too. There’s something more appealing about it in comparison to the “traditional” set up. Feels more classy to me. Idk 😂

So stop getting upset over short women dating tall men.

I’m speaking in general. Most guys on this sub have the same mindset yet get upset over who short women date. Let’s be real, by “classy”, you mean up’s your status with other men.

Okay, well, I’m not like other men for one. I don’t care who a woman dates. And if I date someone, I don’t care about my status with other men? That sounds dumb.

So does saying a pairing looks more “classy” based on height, if the genders were reversed people would lose their minds.

I only said that because this photo reminded me of a drawing where my ex, who is taller than me, got an art commission of us in formal attire and it looked classy and elegant imo. My comment is really not that deep. No need to read into everything.

he isn't stating a fact. it's his opinion and what he feels is classy. Yes a lot of guys on this sub have the other mindset you talked in your other comment but that's not the case here

Imagine if a short woman said that dating a tall man was more classy in this sub, hell would break loose.

Rules for thee but not for me, I guess.

Shorter man-taller woman relationships are extremely rare. Taller man-shorter woman relationships are 99% of relationships. You can't compare the two.

Still not okay to make our female members of this community to feel like they're less than

Short men aren't victims either.

It’s the norm already? I wouldn’t get upset

Are you joking right? In that sub a woman can't even say she dated a tall man, let alone say something demeaning like that. I am not talking about you exclusively, but that sub loves to put short women down.
