I am 5’4" and though no one has ever outright told me they rejected me because of it directly, it almost certainly is a leading reason I have fewer interested parties. It seems like most women specifically mention height in their requirements. It’s too bad, I’d date a tall woman. Karlach is my favorite.
Being short helped me grow a personality and learn to be charismatic to overcome my height, and I’ve done okay, but it’d be foolish to say it’s not a huge hurdle in dating.
I was on a date once and when i opened my door, she stood there super excited and hugged me and said: omg, you’re real, just like the pictures. And i just stood there awkwardly, thinking: man i wish i could say the same to you. Because she mysteriously gained twice her sice over night.
What made it even worse is that we planned to go on a hike with my dog, and as you could guess, she wasn’t really equipped for long walks and started huffing while my house was still visible.

I think they mention it to weed out the liars. Insecure dudes will show up 6" shorter than advertised. (And woman 100lbs. heavier.)
I did quite well at online dating and I think it’s largely from having honest pics, and a wide variety of them, and having an amusing write up.
