Bigus wrote the quoted material below:

" We are, as a population, getting taller, but not in any way proportional 
" to this preference. I think it more likely that when a woman asks for a 
" "tall" man, what she realy wants is a man who seems tall to her, about 
" 10% taller.

Even if it weren't so, there are still women out there who will date
shorter men, but the best way of finding out is not to look at ads in the
papers and single out all the ads that request tall men.  I think a better
way is for the short man to run an ad saying "SHORT MAN" as its headline,
then go on from there.  Women who think shortness is an asset will
respond (provided, of course, they like the rest of the ad).
