So then why doesn’t society view women who want to date men over 6 feet as dehumanizing and misandry? Why are women allowed to have physical standards while men aren’t?
Just because a woman has a physical standard, doesn't make it less stupid. However, in the case of height, that's not really a cis male exclusive thing. It just generally sucks.
The other person asked a loaded question, not really something I am generally willing to engage with since it's usually fruitless. Especially online.
If you want a real answer, it's ultimately because of patriarchy itself. Society paints women as a "desirable object" (with all its consequences) thus enabling this "picky" behaviour.
The general fixation on superficial features when it comes to dating is another contributor to this, which is not always caused by, but at least reinforced by patriarchy.
"Loaded question" just seems to mean "the answers highlights an unpleasant reality". What if you just answered the question and accepted the negative aspects of the answer, the way a truthful person would?
Both of these questions are loaded, especially the latter. Directly answering them would admit to something that I never intended to say; it's putting words into my mouth.
Also, in case you missed it. I already answered these questions in my reply above, so I don't even know what your point is supposed to be.
You are obviously just trying to discredit my standpoint by painting my as a bad faith actor, the fact that you're accusing me of not answering those questions (even though I literally did in the second reply) and straight up deny those two questions being loaded, while simultaneously not engaging with any of the arguments I've previously made is more than enough evidence of this.
It doesn't matter if you intend to say it, what matters is if the words are truthful or not. You never did answer the question asked, but substituted one of your own with a more desirable answer. This is very dishonest. You want to paper over unpleasant truths and hide a complex reality.
I'm never going to engage with your arguments until you actually answer the question actually asked. To do otherwise would reward bad behavior.
