I’m 5’ 10". When I was living in Buffalo and New Mexico, I was considered tall. In Denver, I was considered to be very short compared to the throngs of uberjocks and Midwestern transplants that called the city home.
I’m not much to talk for everyone my age, but I’m 16 years old and still a virgin… but most if not all of my boyfriends have been shorter then me. I’m 5’9 and i like taller guys but if they end up being shorter than I but just as nice then they have a chance!
Just consider this… to some girls it’s not always looks but sometimes the attitude!
I am 5’4" in shoes. The love of my life was shorter than me.
6’1" here, so I might be considered “taller”, and I don’t get laid. Not that it’s a problem, as I’ve never been looking to get laid, only looking for love. And… 
Anyway, I’d guess it’s more your age. I know how much you probably hate hearing that, but it’s probably the correct answer. There’s been quite a bit of people in this thread showing that short guys do get laid (and I know many short guys that get laid, too). Now, I’m 19, and I’ll say that it gets easier once you get out of high school. Age differences don’t seem that great, and there’s a lot of ladies at university. Also, 19 is the legal age here (Canada), and there are many more places available to you to meet the ladies.
However, the most important thing, and the thing that I’ve been lacking in, is confidence. If you go in thinking you’re already at a disadvantage, then you’re behind in the game. It’s been said a few times before in this thread, but it’s more about attitude.
All but one of the guys I’ve been involved with were 5’4" or shorter. (I’m 5’5".)
FWIW, I’m all about short, skinny guys. rrrowr…
I am 5’8’ and my first sexual crush,we were 19, was 5’5". He drove me insane.
I have dated men from 6’4" to 5’4". One of the more energetic lovers I have had was small, dark and handsome. Very buff, 5’6", he knew what he wanted and it was me.
He didn’t want a family, so I moved on. I know it seems like everyone is having sex, but I didn’t even want to until I was 19, didn’t do it until I was 20. I wanted to have sex with someone who cared for me, so I waited until I found a man who did.
Hmmm… I fit Matt’s criteria, I’ll consider that a start. I’m 5’5, almost 23, and haven’t gotten laid yet. Women mostly seem to ignore me. I’ll blame that on being short. Yeah, that’s it.
An old friend of mine is 5’4" and he got laid all the time. I just think there was something about him that attracted women. Maybe it was confidence or maybe it was that he was fun to be around.
I didn’t get laid for the first time until I was 21 I know exactly what you’re talking about.
Great! I’m delighted to hear this!
All this time, I thought it was because I was ugly, stupid, had no personality and was a loser! Little did I know it was because I was horizontally challenged!
Shouldn’t I be able to get some sort of government subsidy now?
My dad was 5’5" and my mom 5’9". Don’t worry about it. And don’t worry about being a virgin at 18 either…I’m 25 and still am. Not deliberately, it just hasn’t happened. I’ve sort of given up worrying about it. Whenever the right one comes along, he’s just gonna have to understand. There are a few benefits to celibacy, after all. I try to look on the bright side.
Not true, you’re just young. It takes awhile for us women to figure out that it’s the short (or bald) guys that are great in bed.
I’m 5’9" and most (all but three) of the men I’ve dated (okay, fucked, since we’re just talking sex) have been within two inches of my height. I got my heart broken by a guy that was 5’7". You might even say I have a thing for short men.
As for frequency, I know a lot of short men who get laid regularly. One of my ex-boyfriends even decided to screw nearly all my girlfriends after we broke up. I attribute his success to the fact that, because of his stature, he seemed unassuming…they never knew what hit them. That’s how it happened with me. We were having a perfectly lovely conversation and BAM! we were in bed. Not that I regret it one bit, WOO!
As a side note, please don’t go developing Short White Man Syndrome. You know…uber-build, fake-tan, enormous truck with lots of chrome, usually towing a jet-ski…that’s just a turn-off.
The last thing I’m going to say is: Proportionally, a short guy’s dick looks bigger, even if it’s not.
I used to tend towards the tall, lanky guys until I met hubby who is 5’7" and showed me the error of my ways. I’m still attracted to tall lanky drinks of water but I also check out the shorter guys too. Except as Sue mentioned, the “syndrome” guys. I found that hilarious because a friend of mine in CA is like that. Short, huge build, great hair, huge Dodge truck with every chrome accessory they make, and literally wants a jet ski just for the look (he hates the water, but he thinks a jet ski on the truck will be a chick magnet). And yes, an average dick on a tall guy looks little. Average dick on a short guy looks big.
But to answer the question, when it comes to sex, it’s attitude that makes a guy sexy, not height. A self confident guy without arrogance is pretty hot. There’s a certain walk and air about them. Plus, maybe it’s just me but it seems that the taller they are, the more of a goober they are when you start talking to them. For looking, I like the tall guys. For sex, I like the short ones. They are usually a lot better. For the record, I’m 5’3".
I think there’s a certain amount of dishonesty here. I’m a touch less than 4’11", and it’s clear to me that most women consider me essentially invisible. Not only can not get them to date me, I can’t even get them to notice I’m alive. I’ve seen statistics that show that short men do indeed have less sex. We’re talking about generalizations here, not absolute rules, but usually taller men do attract more women. If you think it’s bad at 5’6", Chicken Lover, you can imagine what it’s like at 4’11".
Cme to Toronto. Lots of short women here… er, at least, shorter than me (175cm/5’10"ish).
I always thought I was of ‘average’ height–my father’s family were very tall, and my mother’s family was short, so I came out sort of in the middle. But in recent years I’ve noticed more and more times when my eyes are half-a-head or more above everyone at the bus stop. I credit immigration for the change.
I agree with those who have said that confidence is the key. You don’t have to be short to not get laid… as I learned through too many years. But I’m finding my confidence, and this is changing… 
And yes, avoid those with the ‘buff truck-and-jet-ski syndrome’. The leader of one of our political parties may have had a touch of this, and we’ve been watching his party vacillate, lose its way, and self-destruct over the past few months. Truly embarassing to watch. And the jetski photo-op was the first sign of the end.
