Japanese women are traditionally thought to have a strong preference for (relatively) tall men, but if the below ranking of the advantages of men of low stature is anything to go by, even small men may still be in with a chance…
1. He’s not intimidating
2. You can walk around holding hands without stance problems
3. They look cute
4. Whatever he does, he looks like he’s giving it his all
5. He looks young
6. He stimulates your maternal instincts
7. They have a certain charm
8. As he is eye-level, your neck doesn’t get tired
9. He’ll walk about the same speed as you
10. You can get away with fawning over him
Whilst perhaps heartening to munchkins, some of the reasons they are seen as appealing may not be very reinforcing of their masculine self-image, whilst others are rather on the pragmatic side.

"Whatever he does, he looks like he’s are giving it his all"
HAHAHAAHHAHAAHAHHAHA
"He stimulates your maternal instincts"
HAAHAAHAAH
superb..
Morisato Keiichi.
size doesn't really matter, two biggest population in the world, not so big on size but surely bigger on humping
Quality over quantity;)
not if u want some harem. the more the better
Whats gonna happen if both sizes are small? That would be dissapointing. And I think thats why emo kids exist in this world.
that doesnt make any sense at all
lmao maternal instincts and "he trying his all" lmao.
I do like short girls because they can just lie on your body when you really tall compared to them-knew a gurl at uni she was pretty short but when cuddling kinda cozy and cute. But its funny top ten.
But I do hope short guys still get some- I think I am like 180 , so dont think I am that tall tbh.
VERY cool story bro.
I'm 5'6", I would never date a guy shorter than me. Sex would be awkward. >6. He stimulates your maternal instincts This is just sick. Bleh
i'm 5'8" and that's damn tall for a girl in my country. i don't have much of a choice. fortunately my 5'6" boyfriend looks like straight out of a mentaiko doujin, and performs just as nicely :3
tip: brawny is good.
Somehow I find this somewhat insulting, yet, at the same time, not surprising.
As a really short guy ( 156 cm's-around 5'1 or so ), women can be somewhat condescending and even insulting towards you.
Makes it even worse when just 26, yet get mistaken for someone around 15 or 16, so I guess #1,#3,and #5 apply to me, but #1 and #4 are definitely insulting. It makes it hard to date because women around your age put off and say things like you're "not manly or mature looking" enough, and girls that are attracted to you are a no-go because you're just way too old. And don't even get me started on the way other men decide get their cracks in on you, especially at the gym.
Getting any respect, from anyone really, when you're this short and young looking at my age is nigh impossible.
Then you simply lie about your age and hit on 15 or 16 year olds. Problem solved. Lots of ephebophiles would kill to be in your position.
Sorry to hear that, bro. As cliche as this may sound, plenty of fish in the sea. You just need to find the right one. Try different places, different crowds.
I feel the same way about looking young, it gives off the image of being immature or inexperienced. Majority of the public doesn't seem to respect me as an adult, no welcome/greeting or even just common courtesy...at the age of 30. >_>
Errr I don't know... I've seen my very fair share of my female friends (and not friends) having a boyfriend shorter than them (2-3cm) and they usually had varying degrees of a complex about it. They were very quick to anger and jump into a fight and one even hit one of my friends (then his girlfriend).
inb4 "make me a sammwhich" comments.
The reasoning sounds pretty pathetic for the guy imo.
#13 is by far the best - we can share clothes
and undies and bras and whatsmore?
This is so stupid. A short man most of written this.
Tall men are more attractive to the majority of women. If you're the exception, good for you. But usually, girls will go for taller guys. It's evolutionary, it's viewed as more masculine, and that's just the way it is. I'm not saying it's right, but that's how it is.
"4. Whatever he does, he looks like he’s are giving it his all"
This just had me really cracking up!
Meh, I don't mind short guys, but I'm not turned in by them. On the other hand, give me a man (at least)30 centimeters higher than me, and I'd consider him. (Oh, and I'm 149 cm tall, so that 30 cm-part shouldn't really be a problem)
I'm exactly 179 cm :D
If you are 149cm, all the mens of the world are tall compared to you. A guy with 159 cm is short, but even so, he is still 10 cm bigger than you, so he is tall for you.
#11. perfect 69 position
do women over there have any good choices? between workaholic salarymen,creepy otaku or shut in hikkikimori?
no wonder the birth rate keep declining
Japanese men are workaholics to support the lazy Japanese women who only think of men as walking ATMs.
In the women's defense, the Japanese men were like this long before the boom of gold-diggers.
#6 is just weird. Sure it may help you bed her faster but... incestuous undertones?
"3. They look cute."
"5. He looks young."
Definitely shotacon made this list.
your're just jealous that we look young much longer then you will
if u cannot make it with the height, u better make it with the length..

11. He eat less... ;)
A good day to be short! Thanks Japan!!
They make it sound like the guys are like kids and they are totally harmless and innocent. I am only 152cm (roughly 5") yup very short, but I love my height. Sure people mistaken me for a kid, always get id when buying alcohol, and all the other things
But I don't mind at all.
I wouldnt want to stimulate a girls maternal instincts
#4 however, I just plain find that hilarious
i feel better about myself when i read this...
"Whatever he does, he looks like he’s are giving it his all"
This actually made me laugh.
Is it just me, or does most of this list sound quite patronising?
the most bad ass shota Napoleon Bonaparte?
With the conquering he has done, no woman will ever belittle him.
Insulting, more like. I refuse to get into any relationship with any woman who treats her man that way, no matter the height.
Since women do the choosing and no one would be fighting over you, I suppose this won't be a problem.
Less intimidating? That's not very fair, judging someone by his looks. He could look the part but there's always a chance he won't act it.
Damn im going to make a t shirt with this on it and wear that shit!
I'm 5'5.5" that's about 162.5cm.... i honestly and truly dislike it when women say "i won't date you because you're shorter than me". to me, that reveals their character in one go: totally superficial, and only in it for the trophy boyfriend/money. And the problem is that no matter where you go, it's always the same.... worse yet, it's an automatic disqualifier for most women; they won't even give you the time of day if you're the same height as / shorter than them...
I'm 4'11", and I don't fell as short in Japan as I do in America, but it still is shorter than average even in Japan.
I think 5'3" - 5'10" is about average, not sure exactly.
doesn't matter as long as you have a big dick
sigh, this one makes me feel awful for not being virgin, dammit!
Women date money and power, all else is bullshit.
