Women are notoriously selective about height. I am only 5'4" and so of course for a mate I would want someone pretty short, although I do find tall women attractive, to a point. 6 ft tall and up, and I think women begin to lose their feminity.
Lots of tall men prefer shorter women. And lots of short women will not date short men. Strangely, tall women seem to have less of a hangup about height, and will give shorter men a chance.
The ideal height for a mate would be 5' to 5'3" for me, but I'm most attracted to taller women: 5"5" to 5'8".
