Women see Why you should consider being with a short guy

Why should you ditch the taller guy rule and date a short man- who might even be shorter than you?

According to Cosmopolitan, here are four reasons why:

Bucking societal norms

Quite likely, a guy that is cool with you being taller than him will be cool with other things in your relationship that does not go in line with  societal norms.

For example, if he has the mentality to be unbothered with your height, then, it is quite reasonable to conclude that he will most likely have no qualms with you gaining a promotion along the line, and earning more than him.

You’ll dramatically expand your dating pool

Many women are predisposed to cutting off a guy’s chances once he does not meet their height requirement.

For many, it does not matter how amazing the guy is, once that requirement is not met, they are no longer interested.
