Short People Got No Reason To Date

From Saturday's New York Times:

Cosmopolitan, citing an unnamed online dating study, said that women would “relax their standards of how tall they want their mate to be” if the man earned enough money.

How much?

A man who is 5-foot-6 would need to make $175,000 more a year to be considered as desirable as a man who is 6 feet tall.

At approximately $27,000 per inch, that means I only need to make another 71K to be 5'10". Whoo hoo!!

It's like air conditioning--I held out for as long as I could because I knew, once I got it, I'd be addicted to it.
