That's a very interesting article. Which reminds me of an email I got a few months ago saying, "did you know some guy is using a picture of you on his Guardian Soulmates profile?" It's true! How he hoped to explain it if he ever went on a date, I have no idea. Unless he did actually look exactly like me and just didn't have any pictures to hand.

The height thing is about managing expectations though. I went on one of those t'internet dates once with a man who said he was 5 11. Now I am barely 5 3 so have no scope for comments on men of less than god like stature but in heels I range from 5 4 to a rather resplendid 5 8.... well I turned up and was considerably taller than him and I felt a little embarrassed and swapped to my flats to try and be sensitive.


If someone used my photo on a dating site I think I would be remarkably flattered, puzzled, but flattered.

That was certainly not the intention.


Well from the age of around 17, upon realising that I was at my final height, but unwilling to accept my diiminutive stature, I learned to walk in heels. I have been practising ever since and now I think I am rather good at it. I rarely wear 5 inch heels these days admittedly.
