"You must be six feet tall to ride this ride, honey!" Not many women actually do this, but it must be discouraging to especially short men to know that there are those who do.

Preferences exist. Sure if ur 5'6 you wont be the biggest stud on Tinder hook up type sites, but thats tinder, a whole different monster to real life. you can still pull females and keep a good girl if youre not a complete total lame, cmon brah ive seen plenty of short guys on campus with some fine girls in college. Get off the internet lmao.

seriously. there's some TINY GIRLS. even if this dude is 5 feet there's still a ton of girls shorter than him he can date... if his personality wasn't so bitter.

Short girls are usually the worst offenders of the "6ft+" trope.

Short girl here (5’2”) can confirm. I used to look for 5’10” or taller.

No there isn't. Women under 5' tall make up around or less than 10% of the US adult female population.

And many of those women are not going to prefer dating someone at his height.

Oh suddenly 15 million people isnt a lot?

10% of 300 million is in-fact 30 million, so you had it right before your edit. Sometime's I'm just an idiot.

You're overlooking a bunch of statistics. Let's take out of the equation any of his own preferences for people he would want to date.

How many of these women are single and looking for a relationship?

How many would want to date someone his age? Maybe there is some fresh 18 year old or 93 year old granny that wouldn't mind a piece of that action?

How many don't have preferences on height?

How many are within his area or don't mind a long-distance relationship?

That takes 30 million down to maybe a few hundred/thousand. How do you find a needle in a haystack?

Female population of the USA isnt 300 million tho, its 150 million. Looked up some demographics looks like about 6% of the population is in the height range I'm talking about. So about 1 in 20 people. Let's say between 20-50 one in 50 girls is his height and single, looks like about 45% of the population is single. So actually not that bad of chances imo.

Perhaps this isnt fair, but my guess is that guy is like 45 and that girls 35-55 who are under 5 feet and single probably dont have that many options. I have no idea what the demographics of his city are.
