Short men may make ideal hus-, bands, but tall men make ideal lovers.

A girl finds something peculiarly exhilarating in being escorted by a tall man, an added zeat to her enjoyment when she can look up 30 to her companion physically as well ne metaphorically, and mark 5 the envious gaze of those who can not.
