Is Being Thin The Only Way Tall Women Are Accepted? | The Unhealthy Pressures Tall Women Face

Growing up, many tall girlies feel insecure about their height.

Whether we were bullied in middle school for it, or we just feel out of place around our peers, or we have a difficult time finding clothes that fit us well.

And while yes, there are people out there who definitely further these insecurities, there are also people who try to make us feel better about our height. When we voice our frustrations, they’ll say things like:

“Stop complaining. You’re so lucky to be tall.”

“At least you’re skinny.”

Or even the classic: “Well, models are tall.”

And we all know what body type they’re talking about when comparing us to models.

So that brings up the question: Is being tall as a woman only acceptable when you’re thin?

Well, hopefully, we can answer that in today’s episode as well as explore some of the pressure that tall women feel to be thin. Tune in for more!
