I think women _may_ want men that are taller than they are. There are alot of short short women out there. And "taller" can simply be defined as an inch or two. Tho that is usually illustrative of being protective -- thing is, you can be tall and totally unprotective. Or you can be over-protective and all dumb ass agggro dude... which is TOTALLY _unattractive_ (at least to me).

Regardless, people have their tastes and their tastes are entirely subjective.

There is attraction then there is being able to live with. Attraction can fade with incompatability and attraction can grow with bonding.
