Your height plays a bigger role in your life than you think. It plays a part in your health, the type of clothing you wear, the opportunities you receive, and even people’s first impressions of you.

Yup, I said it, it even affects people's first impressions of you.

People will literally treat you a certain way because of your height and many tall women feel as though they’re treated unfairly or even discriminated against because of their height, which leads us to the topic of discussion: is height discrimination even real? And how does it affect tall women?

Fun fact, I was actually stuck on what to talk about this week, so I ran a poll over on Instagram. Some of the topics I was looking to discuss included social media being bad for tall girls, what it’s like being a tall woman in the workplace, height discrimination, and the tall family who lied about their height. And the topic of height discrimination BARELY won, indicating that I got some good topics here :)

Anyways, HEIGHT DISCRIMINATION. Height discrimination, or heightism, is essentially people being treated unfairly or unequally because of their height. This can look like bullying or microaggressions, rejection in dating solely on the basis of height, and even people’s perceptions of you being affected in the workplace because of your height.

It can even affect whether or not you get a job or promotion!

So is height discrimination a real thing? Does it affect tall women? Tune in to the full episode for more!
