Why I Hate Being Tall

I hate being tall. Seriously, everything about it. I wish I was 5'3. I'm 5'11. Here are my reasons why :((

1. Everyone stares at me in public

I mean, I'm not a shiny object, don't stare at me! Ugh, seriously though, people will give you that look of 'um what are you?' 'wow how interesting' kind of look. Like how you look at a new thing or an interesting object. And some even give me a look of disgust or look at my feet to see if it's heels or I'm just tall.

2. Taller is seen as more masculine

Not only on this website, but even everywhere on the internet and in real life. Everyone is praising tall men and short women couples. Short girls get called cute, and sexy when they have heels on. But me? I'm just 'masculine'. I'm big and tall and look weird...

3. I can never feel feminine

Honestly, if I was 5'3 with small hands, smaller feet, and a smaller stature, it would be really easy to be feminine and feel good about my body and myself. Now, I can't feel feminine. At all.

4. Short girls can get away with certain things

Like they don't get dresscoded as much as I used to. And a short girl can get away with a few masculine features, however a tall girl can't. It will just exaggerate the masculinity. I would know because I have a ton of masculine features other than the height.

5. Guys don't want me

No, honestly, I've been turned down by a lot of short men before. Oh and tall men? They want or are already with short girls. Great. Guys want petite and small girls....the smaller the better...

6. I feel awkward

Honestly, my legs are too long. They are way too long for my body and I just look 'huge' . I don't look small. I don't look feminine. I look like a boy.

7. I don't look like a model

No, my long legs aren't model worthy. No, I don't have the face of a model. And models are only tall for the clothing to look good, it's not about what's considered attractive.

I guess what you can take from this is if you're a short girl and hate it, learn to love it. I would do anything to be short, even surgery if it existed. And for people in general, don't stare at tall people... please, it makes us uncomfortable.
