Tall Women Are TIRED Of The Stereotypes | The Truth About Tall Women Media Representation

Tall Women Are TIRED Of The Stereotypes | The Truth About Tall Women Media Representation

Height plays a big role in how we are viewed in society, whether you are a man or a woman.

And the more height you have (the taller you are), the more likely you are to be associated with qualities like power, wealth, leadership, intimidation, dominance, and that affects how we’re treated in our everyday lives. I will definitely say that it affects tall women more than it affects tall men.

And because this is A Tall Girl’s Podcast, we’re largely gonna focus on the woman side of things.

There are a lot of reasons why taller people, even taller women, are associated with these characteristics and the media is one of those reasons.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into how tall women are portrayed in the media and how that affects the way other people view tall women and the way we view ourselves. Tune in for more!
