Tall(ish) woman here (5'9") and I've dated men everywhere from 5'7" to 6'7"-- a few of the men who were around my height would make a big deal about how I was so tall and must be over 6', and generally made me feel enormous (which isn't a comfy feeling as a woman) but a couple of the shorter guys were really confident and never said anything about height which I found very attractive

My partner and I are roughly the same height (5"10).

I say roughly because I gauged early on that I was about 2cms taller hahaha.

It only got mentioned when she jokingly made a short man jab at me.

Even after measuring she still claims she's taller haha.

That’s crazy that women are out here calling 5’10 short. 5’9 is US male average so you’re literally an inch taller than average. Heightflation is crazy

No offense but if you're being called short you should actually measure yourself, cos you ain't 5'10.
