So over the last month we had a live poll asking the following question: What is the ideal male height? The response we had from our visitors was amazing, with a total 41,958 votes cast, the final results proved very interesting.
To answer the question, you voted that the ideal height for a man is 6'1''. It was close though, with the range of heights between 5'11 and 6'2'' all with similar results. Remember that this poll is voted on by men and women, so it gives a good consensus as to what all people generally feel is the perfect height. The fact that some people think that being smaller than 5'7'' is optimum proves that there are some strange people out there! Hmm, I mean... the diversity of people's views and opinions is huge. I guess the truth is that there is someone for everyone and obviously a very small lady is more likely to want a smaller man. Given that the average female height is around 5'6'' this means that the ideal height difference between a male and female couple shoulld probably be around 5 inches, however in reality we all know it is not. This means females desire men that are taller than their partner.
What is the ideal male height?
It's shocking how suddenly 6'4'' is much less appealing than 6'3''. At this height an inch can make a huge difference to someones appearance. There are a number of disadvantages of being tall, and looking too daunting is one of them.
The average male height in Europe and US is 5'11 so this proves that taller men (up to 3 inches taller) are more envied when it comes to height. They are probably more likely to attract girls as well as being a social magnet. I've often asked myself what if I could choose my height? I've thought log and hard about this throughout my life and have always come to the same conclusion - I would be 6'2'' if I had the choice. Tall enough to be classed as tall and therefore have the benefit of a lot of the advantages that come with it, but not too tall to restrict myself with being encumbered with the disadvantages. I'd be interested to hear what others think in the comments section below.
