Just to complete the picture, could you tell us what the height 
distributions were of the women of the varying categories?  Were the women 
basically saying "my height or taller" or were they requiring the man to 
be some minimum number of inches taller.  (Another post suggested that men 
are 4-5" taller on average).  How many of these women would you have been 
interested in anyway?  I would suggest that if any of them are under 5'4", 
you respond anyway and tell them that you are not their ideal height.  Or 
does the service screen that?

     Better yet, take up swing dancing and forget the dating services.
