[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm very, very short. My whole life I have been teased for how short I am. I practically have to starve myself so I'm not obese. I wear uncomfortable heels so that my pants look semi ok.

These are the cards that we have been dealt. I urge you to practice some hard self love. Just know that women like me look at you and think you're amazing. [/quote]
dp..  I'm probably 4'11, though I say I'm 5'  :wink:

I don't know who has it worse -- the super short woman or super tall woman.  I *hate* being this short. Absolutely loathe it.

When I was younger (up till 33 before I pregnant), I was super skinny size 00 (before they had a 00).  I also look very young. When I was in college, people thought I was in MS.  Guys probably thought I was in MS so wouldn't approach me though the ones who knew I was in college did.  When I started working, people never took me seriously because they thought I was a kid.

Even though short woman are teased and made fun off . Being a short woman is more acceptable in society than being a tall woman because woman are naturally shorter . Many feminine traits unfortunately are infantilized I think a similar thing happens to woman with high pitched voices .

However most short woman I’ve come across never think about their height or even enjoy it . They usually get themselves a tall guy , and have a happy ever after .

Most women 5'1 under hate their height. I know several of them -- my sisters, friends, etc..

But, yea, I married a 6'3" man. LOL  I wasn't looking for someone that tall.  I would've preferred 5'10".  But, bonus, my kids are on the taller side - almost 6' DS and 5'6" DD.[/quote]

Yeah short woman are often treated like children but tall woman swear we have a privilege lol . Is being seen as a child a privilege ? Is attracting low quality misogynistic men a privilege ? [/quote]
