Re: The quest for tall husband
6 ft. Minimum.
The shortest guy(s) in my family is 6 ft. Classified midget/shortie 
I’m 5ft 6’‘. The hubby is 6ft 2’'.
Some of my brothers are 6ft 3’’ and their wives are 5ft 2’'. Doesn’t matter - heels all the way! 
Re: The quest for tall husband
Ok, the average Pakistani male is around 5’ 6" but most Pakistani girls I meet say that everyone in their family is tall and every guy is over 6 feet. Hello? Not statistically possible.
I have also realized that it’s the short girls who want the tall guys the most , meaning many many inches taller than them. I am 5’6" and I was with anyone 5’ 8" at least.No one wears heels all day everywhere, in the living room, in the kitchen etc. my husband is 5’ 9" and I think that’s fine. I do t know why girls don’t realize that tall people might want another tall person to match with them. Now I know many of you ladies here are married to men much taller than you and that’s fine but I am talking about making this as a " must have criteria".
Re: The quest for tall husband
This reminds me of a joke.
For every desi girl…
The best male is her father,
The beautiful male is her son,
The sharif/seedha male is her brother,
The luckiest male is husband of her sister,
and
the nikama, nikhato, fazool male is her husband.
2015 version of the joke should include heights as well.
Re: The quest for tall husband
remember when u thought u were taller? Hahahaha LMAO 
Avg is 5’6?? I doubt tht. I am above that and i have never Met a desi guy who was same height as me. Avg is def around 5’9-10 and punjabis are usually taller from what i have seen.
the discussion seems to be pretty light hearted i dont see anyone here demanding a certain height. Everyone has an ideal, nothing wrong with tht.
Re: The quest for tall husband
Its natural to want a husband who is taller than you, but a 5’2 girl wishing for a 6ft guy is ridiculous. Sometimes short guys are cute too! So cant judge someone’s attractiveness based on their height!
Re: The quest for tall husband
Ever been to Pakistan? There are plenty of men under 5’6". An average Pakistani man didn’t grow up abroad or in a upper middle class household in Pakistan. An average Pakistani man grew up poor. He grew up under immense nutritional and health stresses which prevented him from reaching his genetic height potential.
Punjabis are probably taller because they are fed better and their water is a lot cleaner than what we get downstream from them in Sindh. That said, most Punjabis at my(me being a muhajir, immigrant forever) school were my my height or shorter. There were two guys who were abnormally tall(for Pakistan). One was from Islamabad and the other was a muhajir from Karachi.
Pakistani average cannot be 5’9" because that’s the US average for men. And US is a country where people get far better nutrition and health care than back home. You don’t often hear about people getting the runs during there first week over here in Amrica.
Re: The quest for tall husband
Yes Punjabis are taller in general. I am from Karachi. I have a friend who is about 4 ’ 9" and another who ‘s 5’ 1" or 5’2" and both wanted 6 feet tall men. 4 foot 9 ended up with 5’ 7" and complained about it. The other one got married to a tall guy and got divorced but still boasts about his height! Some compensation!
Re: The quest for tall husband
The women in my family who are around 5ft 5" or so ended up with guys around 5 10 plus. The smaller 5ft 1" or 2" girls ended up with max 5ft 8" guys. Meh, it is what it is - never heard anyone complain though.
Re: The quest for tall husband
I am 5 ft 6, and a girl. Never really thought about the quest for a tall husband up until now. 
Thinking about it now; I don’t think it’s much of an issue, though. However, if the guy’s height is shorter, or whatevz, compared to the girl; relatives may get a good topic to joke around. What I don’t understand is that why can’t these people mind there own business. All that actually matters is that the couple is happy together. What I want from my future husband is that he must love me, support me, be true to me, and that’s about it, I guess. The only thing that my mumma and papa might look for is that he must have a good family background. Looks, money, and all are secondary things. Like cherry on top of the cake.
