23 ~ Woah.... that's... kinda creepy! I never noticed how bloody tall Lantis was compared to Hikaru. XD;;; Well,. i am bias because I don't like Lantis/HIkaru together anyway T_T However.... I think your 'problem' isn't so bad. The reason it is bothering you is because you are thinking of each couple sexually XD; And you don't always have to that dude.

Hehe... yeah, I know. I can take a woman powerhouse, but when a man seemingly overpowers a woman sexually, it seems to squick me out. I know that height SHOULDN'T necessarily be correlated with strength/power, but subconsciously it does for me...

I think this might stem from some horrible yaoi fanfics I've read (I'm an equal opportunist when it comes to love... I'm a fan of shounen ai, shoujo ai, and het... as long as there's love, I could care less)... doesn't help that the some people like to use the height rule when determining seme/uke for their fics - and sadly, the uke's end up being portrayed as SUPPAH %UKE$$!!! (Y'know, extremely cute, defenseless, naive, innocent, weepy, whiny ukes?)

And then I come back to het fics, and suddenly that height difference becomes so much more obvious. Like I said, I can read the fics without much of a problem, I just can't really enjoy romantically-portrayed pics of the couple.

It's a visual thing and there's nothing wrong with liking what you like visually.
