A. Women generally pick men who are taller than they are for their partners.
Studies show that when all other physical characteristics are the same, women choose the tallest.
However, women tend to pick a handsome man over a tall man. Even before that, women will choose a man with a good personality and intelligence. So, in terms of what women actually prefer, it's personality and intelligence first, followed by handsomeness then height. One thing I've seen time after time as a sexual therapist is that there's someone for everyone. Yes, there are women who prefer tall men, or handsome men, or men who have perfect physiques.
