My long-term partner is 5’3, six inches shorter than me. I haven’t conducted a survey of all her exes, but I get the impression that they were all as tall or taller than me. She thinks of herself as below average height, lamenting that she can’t reach something “because I’m a dwarf.” She’s never mentioned my height as a factor in her choice to be with me one way or the other.
I myself have never had the luxury of having preferences with regard to such things as height.
“He’s with me.”

I can’t tell you how gratified I am that you’re giving us Lhyr’s perspective. The Passageway must have caused some disruption in his dimension, too.
I’m not even going to speculate on the plot. Just hungry for more. 
@littlest-lily I visited Hungary once with a couple of other Americans (both taller than me). Hungarians are shorter than average, but where we really stood out was in our weight. One of our hosts gave us a ride in their car, and I was afraid it was going to bottom out.

Am I the only one who finds it odd there are different preferences for short and long term partners??
I, too, find it an overcomplicated thing to get hung up on. But then, I have never set out in search of specifically a short- or long-term partner. I have absolutely zero confidence in my ability to judge anyone’s suitability in that respect.
OTOH, I wouldn’t expect a potential partner under three feet to last very long under most circumstances.
Travel can add different perspectives. If you want to feel short, visit the Netherlands, the country with the world’s tallest average height. If you want to feel tall, visit Indonesia or Peru.
I often wonder how @Jitensha is doing in Japan, which is shorter than average.
I think dating apps have dramatically affected the way we view “preferences.”

There’s a lot of wood and string, with globs of stabilizing silicone clay at the bottom, but then at the top I now notice several tiny wheels of some kind. I lean in, eyes widening. “Holy crap, are those pulleys?”
@Kisupure “Frigid,” as if that was the end of the story.
@littlest-lily So you know all of us were screaming like a horror movie audience, “Don’t get off the nightstand!”
Of course it’s Camila.
I had to pause several times after reading those words, and my pulse still hasn’t returned to resting.
Am I a bad person for wanting some fanart of Camila sneering at Evie?
I’ll be in my bunk.
I’m reminded of an old Tumblr thread that can be found at the start of this post. Like most kinks, I imagine, size fantasy allows for experimentation.
I’m not attracted to men, but I were in the clutches of a male giant I would find it scary but exhilarating. Similarly, if in my hunting for shrunken women a few tiny men accidentally ended up in my collection, I think I’d enjoy their plight almost as much as the little ladies’. After all, tinies can’t be choosers.
