This isn't me, but my ex-hubby and I were about the same height difference and I had no qualms about it.

Just thought I'd share as it is a cute video.

Their TikTok video can be found here.

these extreme outliers are inevitable due to probability but are certainly not the norm. for every one of these examples, there are countless hundreds if not thousands of short men who cannot get a single date due only to a lack of height. i cannot recall the last time i saw an attractive women with a man shorter than she is IRL.

Perhaps, but that's not what this specific thread is about, it's about the many tall woman-short man couples that are out there. Just because you haven't seen one, or have been in one, doesn't mean they don't exist. I live in NYC and these couples while aren't anywhere near the norm, aren't as rare as you think they are.

My ex girlfriend and I were about the same height difference, and she asked me out. She looked noticeably taller in heels, but I never felt awkward when with her. We were together for about four years until a career move on my part didn't make us going further possible becuase she wanted to stay in the city I was in at that time.

"Wanting to measure the height difference in existing couples (as opposed to people’s preferences for a partner — we’ll come to those later), researchers in the Netherlands used survey data from 12,502 couples who were the parents to babies born in the U.K. in 2000. Their peer-reviewed study, published online in 2013, found that in 92.5 percent of couples, the man was taller than the woman and that the average height difference was 14.1 centimeters, or 5.6 inches.

But if what I see in my area (greater NY area) regularly is different than what the studies you cite (from ten and twenty-five years ago), then I won't be so inclined to restrict my view and expectations to what those studies (from Europe and not the US) show.
