Most short women? I see most women of my height with average height guys. Which makes some sense, there are more guys between 5'8" and 5'11" than any other height here. Went to a concert just last night and noticed it again. Yes almost all women were with guys as tall or taller than themselves, but most often as the men got taller the women they were with got shorter.

I wholeheartedly agree that most women of any height look for guys at least the same height not shorter than they are.

And this whole conversation has made me think about my own preference. Maybe since I am used to looking men in the eye, I was subconsciously uneasy feeling short? That is not something I'd considered before. Only had thought I didn't care as long as not perceptibly shorter than me.

Two things: first, there's probably a few biases at play between conformation bias and the fact that the taller a guy gets a similar sized woman would look shorter and shorter and vice -versa.

Also you say (apparently) the taller a guy gets the shorter the women are; so why do taller men prefer shorter and shorter women and not: why do shorter women like taller and taller guys?
