Ladies: what is your ideal height for a man?

what % of men are 6'0 or taller?

I've long wanted to date someone taller than me, it doesn't intimidate me but I've always suspected those girls wanted taller guys.

In the US i bet around 1/3 of men are 6ft tall+ in their prime (assuming most everyone shrinks a few inches as they get older). My gut tells me it may be more than that (probably because most of my friends are tall) but my head says that number may be a little high
 
Don't get sensitive short dudes....they're talking ideal, ideal is just that....ideal. Not mandatory. It's just like your ideal girl would be Kate Upton/some super model or something like that but obviously you can be happy with "less". Very few chicks are going to paint an image of their ideal guy and he's 5'5" just like no guy would paint a picture of his ideal chick with a flat chest, yet 5'5" guys get girls (or so I assume) and flat chested girls still get guys.

The folks that I remember being on MALTA were Ph, BBD, stonz, Waldo, and I can't remember the rest.

The folks from real life would be Substar and MountainDeac, I think.

Tsy, were you on MALTA or have we met in real life, or are you implying creepily that you've seen my wife...?

I was on Malta and can confirm that Ellis' wife is smoking hot.

The average height for American men is 5'9 1/2, so probably 25-35% are 6ft+
