We Need To Stop Calling Tall Women "Big"...

We Need To Stop Calling Tall Women "Big"...

So for today’s episode we are talking about tall women being called “big”, why that’s an issue in my opinion, and how we as tall women can remain confident and remember that some people don’t mean it in an insulting way.

First and foremost, as a community, let’s stop calling tall women “big”. To be honest, “big” and “tall” are 2 completely different things in my opinion. Let’s just stick with “tall”, okay?

It’s fairly offensive to call a tall woman, or any woman for that matter, “big” and here’s why:

“Big” for a woman has a negative connotation to it in two ways. First, we’re taught from a young age that we’re supposed to be small, not seen, out of the way, and honestly just there when needed. So, when you have a tall girl, who already sticks out, feels out of place, and is ridiculed for something she naturally has (which is her height) and then you point out the fact that she’s “bigger” than her peers, “bigger” than the people around her, how do you think she’s gonna feel?

If you said self-conscious, you’re right.

The second way is that “big” is often tied to the terms “fat” or “overweight”. I personally don’t like using those terms because society has placed such a negative connotation with them, but because “big” is associated with such negative words, we’re going to take it as an insult. And honestly I feel like this is something very very common for a tall plus sized woman.

Why do people even call tall women “big” to begin with? How can we respond to those who call us “big”? Tune in to the episode for a deep dive!
