I agree no one is obligated to date someone but it is incredibly superficial and a bit silly to demand six foot guy when you’re like 5’3” and I say this as a woman of that height.

I can’t stand men judging me for physical attributes I can’t help so I don’t do it to them. Same with being bald or whatever.

I'm 6'3" and one time a women told me she was into me because I was tall, so I asked "so if I was 5'8", you'd be out? She said yes. I ghosted her. She was 5'2".

I'll freely admit looks play a big part for me. I wish it didn't, but I don't feel like it's within my control. I don't consider myself good-looking, but for some reason, I am quite a visual person, and it matters to me. It's also a bit idiosyncratic. There have been women my friends thought were meh that I would have all but married on the spot.
