13484820, could you date a 6'6 woman or a woman much taller than you?

I don't think I could do it. call me insecure, but I need to be the tallest person in the relationship. shit would be awkward for me.

her dating life gotta be frustrating af. dude handled that poorly. he just wanted to bag her based him saying he took it as a challenge.

also explain the bases thing to me. I've never understood it.

1st base - kissing?
2nd base - ??
3rd base - oral?
home base - intercourse

pretty sure 1st and home are correct, but what about the others? I ain't never heard black people use the bases analogy.
13484821, 2nd base is seeing some skin

13484853, IDK why I know / remember this but...
Posted by spades, Fri May-19-23 10:38 AM
1.st base Kissing
2nd Base over the clothes 'petting'
3rd Base under the clothes 'petting'
Homerun: Intercourse.
13484881, this is prolly correct... I just lack patience, lol
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 12:50 PM
13484889, all good. the way she was describing it, 3rd base was definitely oral.
Posted by spades, Fri May-19-23 01:52 PM
13484892, yeah, that's what I got from her too.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 02:32 PM
13484895, I didnt listen to a word she said.. lol
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 03:10 PM
just looked at the face and the body.. “hell yeah, hell yeah”

but then I read the title… “hell nah, hellllll nahh”

but if she gives oral I’d date for a while, more than likely she a pro. Might even do the backdoor action. Some of them do everything else BUTT the vagina to keep a nigga
13484902, she's not giving. she's getting.

Posted by tomjohn29, Fri May-19-23 06:45 AM
she played basketball at my college
first time being chased by a women
only reason it ended was because she transferred to a west coast school
still cool with her
13484836, getting chased feels great when you like her back lol
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 09:09 AM
I'm 6'2. I tend to like average height women.

I did work with a couple that were close to 6ft. felt weird to me. they were good folk but it just felt weird to me.
13484845, i have never dated a women who didnt chase me including my wife
Posted by tomjohn29, Fri May-19-23 09:54 AM
not for a lack of trying lol
13485044, I have. You ain't missing nothing.

13484824, yes.. but not one who is waiting until marriage
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 07:09 AM
or we getting married real soon.. lol

freshman year of college a 6’3” girl walked up on me in some Nike AF 1 originals and threw her arm around my shoulder and started pitching woo on my way back from class.

Shit threw me off.

She drove by earlier in the whip and hollered from the car but I had no idea it was the same woman and no idea she was so fucking tall. She wasn’t my type but everytime she saw me on campus she would press up on me.

I’m 5’9”.. lol.
13484834, true indeed.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 09:02 AM
gonna be real hard to find somebody that meets all her requirements AND wants to wait til marriage.
13484875, I dated virgins in college but not the “wait until marriage” kind
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 12:30 PM
I’m not falling for that bull..

I will admit I somehow dated a few in college because I was on some we are the world steez hollering at Asians, Indians and Latinas

and my boy married a woman who waited until marriage. He was crying at the alter when he saw her and my homie leaned over and said “he aint hit yet? No wonder he’s cryin” Asked him how the honeymoon was and he said “fucking horrible” they were divorced within 3 years. She had no sex drive or desire for sex.

13484885, I hooked up with couple of them as well.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 01:23 PM
they weren't waiting til marriage, but rather the guy. I was the right guy for one of them.

I wouldn't have stayed waiting for wedlock. we need to be beyond that before I put a ring on it.

13484826, Yes. Never seen a woman taller than me IRL tho.
Posted by flipnile, Fri May-19-23 08:18 AM
Closest I've seen is ~2 inches shorter.

6'6" would be the same height as me... I'd be down.

Down for a taller woman too. At that point, we both just giants, lol.
13484831, them kids would be tall af lol

13484830, Do you consider The Rock to be black?
Posted by Numba_33, Fri May-19-23 08:38 AM
> I ain't never heard black people use the bases
>analogy.

The reason I ask is because he used it during a very old sketch he did during his wrestling days. It was during a This Is Your Life segment when he curbed a woman that was supposed to be from his dating past. I'm sure someone will provide a youtube link for what I'm referring to.

To bring my off tangent response back to one of the points of your original post, I remember him barking on the woman for 'cutting The Rock off on second base'.
13484833, I never really thought about him being black or not,
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 09:00 AM
but I guess so lol

using it in a sketch makes sense, but I mean in normal, everyday convos. it's not something I recall hearing from black folks.

I'm sure it happens, but not a huge part of the vernacular in my experience.

You are correct about it not being familiar phrase among black folk; I've only heard of it from sitcoms. I'm an 80s baby that was raised in NYC; dunno if it's something black folk from other regions in the US might use since slang does vary by region, along with generational differences as well.

To bring some you some Friday joy and further bring my response more off tangent from your original post, here's a link to the sketch I was referring to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbaqwovUM4&pp=ygUadGhlIHJvY2sgdGhpcyBpcyB5b3VyIGxpZmU%3D

Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 12:36 PM
but not sure what that has to do with anything.

I always thought the 1st base, second base was some white shit.

but maybe the from the Negro Leagues

We always asked “did you hit?”
13484878, I watch Young Rock.. that nigga is one of my hero’s now
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 12:41 PM
dude is giving his mom and dad so much praise on that show.

his story and his families history is Black as hell even though his mom is Somoan.

I legit thought about making a Dwayne Johnson appreciation post after watching his show.

Dude has lived an amazing life.
13484832, Yes...only requirement is attractiveness and good vibe to be around
Posted by auragin_boi, Fri May-19-23 08:48 AM
>1st base - kissing?
>2nd base - Over clothes touching (butt, breast)
>3rd base - Under clothes touching (taking off bra, touching butt inside underwear, fingering)
>home base - intercourse


At least this is always what I understood it to be.
13484835, so the bases thing is up for interpretation for the middle 2.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 09:05 AM
13484847, this is where i'm at with the bases. 2 was fondling body parts over clothes
Posted by Cenario, Fri May-19-23 10:13 AM
3 was like taking clothes off/fingering/jerking off
13484844, MUCH taller? i could probably do 3 inches taller.
Posted by PROMO, Fri May-19-23 09:42 AM
that'd put her at 6'1".

taller than that? i wouldn't be insecure per se, but i do think there's something to a couple looking right together and i think we'd look weird.

but if she was a super tall BADDIE? maybe because it would make people even more mad that she was w/ a regular height fat dude like myself.

lastly, 2nd base is seeing/touching some skin.
13484846, I'm 5-7 and I've dated a lot of women in the 5-10,11 range that are well...
Posted by ThaTruth, Fri May-19-23 09:55 AM
over 6 feet when they put heels on, its never been an issue.



The video was funny, with the comments dude was making it was obvious that he was plotting on something more developing later.

She should probably try to find a church dude it may go over a little better. Not that some church people aren't fucking outside of marriage but the possibilities are there lol
13484849, them church niggas aint no different.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 10:17 AM
they just apply pressure in the name of jesus lol
13484850, lol...

13484869, Church people are definitely fucking out of wedlock I just think...
Posted by ThaTruth, Fri May-19-23 12:08 PM
the odds are more likely that she would find someone will to go along with it if they got serious quickly and marriage was on the imminent horizon
13484879, church niggas grimy as hell.. especially Southern Baptist
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri May-19-23 12:45 PM
we be fuckin’

my homie is a pastor. Methodist. He grimy but he doesn’t drink so he is always the designated driver at pastor retreats.

He said one dude was supposed to preach in Houston at their convention.. but called him and said he woke up in Dallas and didn’t remember how he got there.

13484890, Good strategy

13484861, on my life I'd tell anyone to date a drug dealer B4 dating a preacher

The dealer is going to be a lot more honest to be frank.
13484880, A preacher will be Frank or Earnist if it gets him the drawls

13484899, They are more likely to be ok with the "no sex til marriage" rule
Posted by Boogie Stimuli, Fri May-19-23 06:41 PM
Not that some "secular" dudes wouldn't, but church cats are more likely to see that as a positive and be thanking white Jesus they done found their Ruth.
13484852, Dis me.

someone that was 5-11 - 6ft, not sure i'd be attracted beyond that generally speaking
13484854, yeah
Posted by mista k5, Fri May-19-23 10:42 AM
Haven't done it but not at all against it. As long as she's cool with it too though.
13484855, If women still posted on this website
Posted by Numba_33, Fri May-19-23 10:46 AM
>As long as she's
>cool with it too though.

this would be a good question to ask them because I am curious since women typically like feeling a sense of protection from their mate. Flipping the normal gender based height difference would counter that expectation a bit I would imagine.
13485045, I think we got 1 or 2 left.

13484856, Holding out until marriage is an unrealistic standard today
Posted by spades, Fri May-19-23 10:46 AM
ESPECIALLY at 36

Also, she's ok with receiving head but won't give it?

Her issues go far beyond her virginity & height.
13484867, Yeah I was like wtf at that part too...
Posted by ThaTruth, Fri May-19-23 12:04 PM

>Also, she's ok with receiving head but won't give it?
13484893, blame the dudes for hooking her up.
Posted by tariqhu, Fri May-19-23 02:37 PM
they're doing it in hopes of hitting the tall virgin. she probably tells them upfront how it'll go down and the dudes proceed thinking they can get her to change her mind.
13485043, Yeah, they dumb, but she still wrong.
Posted by spades, Wed May-24-23 11:25 AM
Telling someone you are going to wrong/cheat them, doesn't really let you off the hook for wronging/cheating them.

13485271, agreed. she's definitely taking advantage of them.
Posted by tariqhu, Mon May-29-23 05:30 PM

13484916, i had a lil fling with a woman who was 6'4
Posted by cgonz00cc, Sat May-20-23 09:16 PM
im 6'3 so its not *much* taller, but she's still the tallest woman ive ever known personally, and its generally mildly disorienting to be around people taller than me in general

but she was a fuckin smokeshow, and i felt no kind of way about her height at all. in fact, her height lent itself to some novel geometry.
13485046, lol, great turn of phrase.
Posted by spades, Wed May-24-23 11:30 AM

13484926, 5'8, do not care
Posted by Beamer6178, Sun May-21-23 07:18 PM
I think most women actually wouldn't care either, except society has thrust so much shit upon them that they have so much to be insecure about. I'm also not a slight dude so a woman wouldn't feel unsafe being with me.

watching the video, i think that the virginity is going to be more of an obstacle than the height ultimately. i don't judge her for that choice but our society is so hypocritical and repressive that it fucks with people's heads and sets them up for tremendous disappointment (eg her fiance/husband could be fucking beaucoup chicks on the side and may continue that throughout their marriage). dude was a dick though.
13484939, Indian girl I was cool with had a roommate who was like 6’6”
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon May-22-23 09:37 AM
White girl.

I walked in and she was in bed alseep and her big ass feet where hanging off the end of the bed like a cartoon character.

I woke her up on accident “goooooootdamn.. look at her feet!!!”

she responded “yeah, I know..I’m tall”

She was in the band too.. made the flute look like a piccolo

I actually saw her down in ATL at Freaknik 92 that spring so if you see a tall ass white girl in the documentary its prolly her.

13485052, My Moms wasn't 6'6

Pops is 5'6 and she was 6'0 LOL

But he got the type of confidence to pull something like that off

4 out of 6 aunts on my Moms side are 5'10 and above. The youngest
is 6'3 and all their husbands slightly shorter.

But dating a Tall woman, I could do it if I wasn't married

13485239, I'm 5'7" and the Tall Joints Used to Approach the Kid
Posted by Thee Phantom, Sun May-28-23 10:40 PM
In my early twenties when I was powerlifting and working in retail, there was a string of athletic Amazons in different malls that used to randomly approach me.

One came out and told me that they had a dream about being tossed around by a short, muscular dude. I can imagine the other joints had some weird fetish they were trying to check off, but it never went down. Not because I was afraid or embarrassed, it just never got past the shit talking phase.
