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
