Ladies, if you prefer your male partners to be a certain height, why is that?

I am a male in my mid-twenties, and I am quite tall (6ft 5 in). When I flirt with women, I almost always hear them say “I love tall men,” but I don’t know why that is. I don’t have a preference at all when it comes to women, as long as I have a deeper connection with them (however, I’m noticing that I tend to be attracted to red heads the most, so maybe the height thing is the same aesthetic attraction).

Is there something more behind liking the aesthetic appeal of tall (or short) men? Something psychological I’m just not getting?
