Men under 5’9″ have just a 1.2 percent chance of getting contacted by a Manhattan or Bronx woman online, according to a new study from AYI.com and reported on by the New York Post. With Brooklyn, Staten Island, and Queens women, that goes up to a whopping 2.4 percent, 4.1 percent, and 5.4 percent, respectively. OK, obviousness alert: If you put search restrictions on your dudes, you could seriously miss out on a great one! Need proof? Oh, we have lots of that…
1. Usher
We got it bad for the singer—all reportedly 5’7″ of him.
2. Josh Hutcherson
Word on the street is that this actor is just 5’6″—and he’s also hilarious, talented, and besties with J-Law. Who wouldn’t want to date him?
3. Michael J. Fox
We’ve been charmed by this talent, who’s reportedly 5’4″, all the way Back to the Future.
4. Tom Cruise
Look to Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman (and then, well, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes) as proof that a taller woman can be with a 5’7″ guy. Sure, their relationship didn’t work out, but they looked fantastic.
5. Aziz Ansari
We dare someone to come forth and say she wouldn’t have fun dating this hi-larious Parks and Rec actor, who’s said to be 5’6″. His $3.5 million book deal surely adds to is sexiness. And wait a minute, the book is about love.
6. Robert Downey Jr.
Whether he’s playing Sherlock Holmes or Iron Man, this star, who some say clocks in around 5’8″ (reports vary), is so suave.
Reports put Marky Mark at 5’8″—not that it stops him from giving off some seriously “good vibrations.”
