La altura de una persona se ha convertido en un tema de creciente interés no solo en las ciencias biológicas sino también en las ciencias sociales. La altura de los filipinos rara vez se ha estudiado, y la preferencia de altura en la pareja romántica de filipinos nunca ha sido un tema de investigación. Se recopilaron datos de 100 estudiantes de la Universidad de Filipinas utilizando cuestionarios abiertos de encuestas cualitativas. Los resultados muestran que la mayoría de las mujeres encuestadas (96%) prefieren salir con hombres más altos que ellas. La explicación de las preferencias de altura basada en el género parece más prominente que la legitimación basada en la evolución.Descargas
