What It's REALLY Like Being A Tall Girl | Why It's Such An Isolating Experience

Ok....You’re probably like why is this girl asking this question???? This episode happens to be a request from one of you guys. Someone commented under one of my videos for me to talk about feeling undesirable or unattractive as a tall woman. And it’s crazy because this is something that I’ve never really spoken about on the podcast. Like, I’ve spoken about femininity and masculinity, and how when you’re a tall woman around lots of shorter people, they may view you as masculine because of your height and yada yada ya, but I’ve never actually spoken about feeling unattractive. And there were definitely times growing up where I felt undesirable because I was much taller than my peers. So, what’s the answer? Are tall girls unattractive???

Today, we're talking about other people’s opinions. Great subject, huh? In the last episode, I talked about how to respond to negative comments about your height and I posted a couple Reels/Shorts of some of the podcast clips. So, in one of the videos, I discussed how people think that talking about your experiences as a tall woman is not serious or not that deep and the comments….girl. Them comments were cray. There were people here saying “someone needs to grow a thicker skin” or “just ignore them” or “it’s not that serious” and basically things that would kind of invalidate your feelings or experiences. And today, I’m here to tell you that if you feel this way, your feelings are VALID. It’s okay to feel hurt or disrespected or sad about the negative things that people have said about you. But what are some tips on how to not feel this way and not let other people’s words and opinions affect you? Tune in to the full episode below to learn more!

One of you guys actually left a comment under one of my videos and asked me to do an episode on how to respond to negative comments about your height. Funny thing, this person is 5’9” and in college and STILL gets comments on their height. They’re now confident in their height but they just don’t know how to respond. And ya know, I really resonated with this person because I’m also in college and it still baffles me to this day that people still ask me stupid questions and make weird comments about my height. And I’m like, are we not mature enough to move on from this???? And it took me until my senior year of college to realize that this quite literally may never end. Anyways, what was it like growing up getting comments about my height? And how can you respond to these comments?

Today’s podcast episode is centered around what being tall has taught me. I feel like my journey with my height and self-confidence and all that stuff has been a very long and tumultuous one. This stems back all the way from elementary school to now when I’m finishing up my last year of college. And I argue that the journey is still far from over. I think the journey of finding any type of confidence is a very difficult one. And I hope that today’s episode can really open your eyes to the positive aspects of being tall and can potentially open your eyes to the things that being tall (or short or whatever personality/physical trait you may have) has taught you.

Have you ever felt as though you’re too tall for the space you’re in? Have you ever entered the room and immediately felt all eyes on you? Have you ever wanted to just hide in a corner and disappear because you felt out of place? Lol why does this sound like a TV ad commercial????But if you answered yes to any of these questions, you are not alone. I quite literally have experienced these feelings on a daily basis at one point. It was so bad to the point where my posture was affected. Because if you’ve been here for a while, you’d know that I used to have a slouching problem and then on top of that, I have lateral and anterior pelvic tilts, which I guess was my way of subconsciously and consciously making myself shorter.Sounds crazy right? If you're looking for a little tall girl chit chat on bad posture, taking up space, and self-confidence, you're in the right place.

Y’all we completed our first week of college!! And even though this first week went really well, I still somehow found a way to talk negatively to and about myself. I’d beat myself up for not making friends fast enough or I wasn’t transitioning into the new year seamlessly enough or I didn’t complete my work fast enough. And it’s like why??? It’s literally the first week. It’s SUPPOSED to be chaotic. The first month is actually SUPPOSED TO BE CHAOTIC. Why am I beating myself up because of something that is completely new to me? And then at one point, I began to realize that I used to do this to myself relating to my height. Why? And how did that play a role in my low confidence?
