Yeah I knew he was shorter. I thought 5'9 though. I think is wife is 5'7 but she wears heels a lot.
My friend's brother is on the short side, about 5'4 and his girlfriend is 5'2. I guess they went to this work thing of hers and she wanted to wear some heels that put her an inch taller than him so she MADE him wear lifts in already thick shoes so he would be abou 5'6+. This seems wrong to me.
That doesn't seem wise to me and I can't believe ALL dating sites do this. Where did you hear this?
Love lives of short men:
Short men were found to marry later in life than average or tall men, but were 32 percent less likely to divorce. They were also more likely to marry less educated and younger women. Once married, they did less of the housework and earned a much higher income than their spouse.
Why? The researchers hypothesize that because height is related to masculinity, short men may use other aspects of the relationship -- income, housework -- to demonstrate their manliness. "Short men may exchange their breadwinner status for less housework ... because a lower share of housework or a higher share of relative earnings allow short men to enact traditional gender ideals, thereby performing their masculinity in the absence of symbolic anthropomorphic differences," the researchers write in the paper.
Love lives of tall men:
Tall men were found to marry sooner in life, but were more at risk for divorce later on, as shorter men had more stable marriages. However, researchers note that the link between short men and stable marriages could be because they chose to marry later (or didn't have the option until later).
Tall men were also more likely to marry women closer to their age, and who were better-educated.
Why? "From the perspective of relationship exchange models, this indicates that the tallest men exchange their attractive attribute (height) for better-educated spouses, while short men are unable to do so," the researchers write."
