I never really understood these complaints, because my brain doesn't calculate height as part of the "is she attractive" equation. Either she's hot or she's not, and whether she's 4'8" or 6'5" doesn't actually figure into that one way or the other, in my head.

If anything, tall girls have an advantage in that they have more leg to show off than shorter girls do lol.

Tall girl here. I'm very leggy as well. However, dresses, skirts and pants look shorter on me.

I also get described as a "big" girl. That has given me a complex over the years. I'm 5'11" and weigh around 145lbs. So actually I'm on the skinnier side but it's hard to be called thar big girl without it affecting you.

I always wanted to be petite! Petite women have always been what I would consider ideal for society. That is my perspective. I may have a different experience than others but that has been my experience. 🙂

My wife's your size and got/gets called that.

It's part of why she likes me. I'm 6'5" and she said it was the first time she felt petite
