At what height is it over for heterosexual men in dating?

Your poll doesn't go low enough. I'd say below 5'5" and it becomes difficult, but still can be done. I knew a Colonel in the Marines who snagged a total cutie. He was like 5'3", fit, attractive face, and his wife was hot.

I'm 6'4"

There's plenty of short women out there.

The singer Prince was always successful with women even before he hit the big time.

Many women refuse to date men less than 6 feet tall unless the man is rich. It is what it is.

Prince was a known player even before becoming famous. His dad threw him out of the house because he was always sneaking girls in as a teenager.

He didn't let his 5'2 height hinder him when it came to women, musical success and he was known to be a very good basketball player as well.

He also ended up bald like his dad and wore wigs in his later years.

He wore wigs throughout most of his career. If he was bald and short it would have been over for him in terms of success with women, as he would have looked kinda creepy or just plain. The wigs saved his public image and allure/mystique. Basically baldnesss is the problem for short men. Short + good hair = gets a lot of women usually.

Where's your source he went bald? That's the first I've heard of this. I knew he wore wigs and extensions to supplement his head.

Well no one wears wigs just for fun. We don't know if he was completely bald but we never saw him with his hairline fully exposed. He was very good at keeping it a secret.

Just look at that picture I posted above on the left. It's such an obvious wig. Here's one that shows him with a wig/combover.

I think he wore his natural hair in his early to mid 80s peak and then started wearing wigs from the late 80s/early 90s onwards.

His dad was bald but had hair in his 20s, I think Prince inherited the same genes.

Baldness is a problem for all young musicians apart from those in the rap and metal genres who might be accepted.

A bald young popstar in the 80s? No chance, it was the decade of big hair!

But then again Phil Collins had massive success at the same time

Confidence, personality, humor, and how you treat people matter far more than a few inches. I’ve seen people of all heights have fulfilling relationships, especially when they focus on being genuine and kind. Platforms like Taimi also show this — people connect over shared interests, values, and authenticity, not just looks. The key is to embrace who you are, take care of yourself, and put energy into meaningful interactions rather than worrying about arbitrary standards. When you’re confident and real, the right connections will happen.

Not true. I know women with ugly or fat men.

Because the women are uglier and fatter than the guy. Very rarely see a hot girl with a short fat guy.

My wife said she wouldn't of dated me if i was short. I asked her if she could overlook that if she liked me...nope. I also wouldn't date her if she was some fat pig either so its all what attracts people.
