Obviously there's a biological component to foids preferring tall men but the heightflation we're seeing now doesn't have anything to do with that.
I'm old enough to remember that when girls said they wanted a taller man, they meant literally their height or an inch or two above and it was fine. That was before social media.
Imagine in the 90's and earlier, there was nowhere for you to project yourself and your lifestyle. There was no profile of you anywhere for people to look at. If a girl had a boyfriend, she couldn't post pictures of him anywhere. The people who met her boyfriend at parties and such were the only people who knew what he even looked like.
Now foids have an image and a brand to consider. They know that their profiles can be seen by thousands if not millions of strangers. They're competing to look the best and have the best boyfriends. That's why the height demand is growing. Because it looks good. Their 6'4 boyfriend is a prop to tell other foids that they have high SMV - in the same way a man would show off his Ferrari.
The same 5'4 woman who demands a 6'2 man in 2025 would have been perfectly happy with a 5'9 man in 1995. There wasn't the same pressure to lock down a giant because there was no way of showing off the trophy.
Curious to see if any oldcels remember that it wasn't as bad pre-social media.
