  • The Dating Double Standard: Are Tall Women Undesirable In The Dating World?

    The Dating Double Standard: Are Tall Women Undesirable In The Dating World?
    2025/05/22
    Dating as a tall woman…That is a…beautiful thing.

    Ok, growing up, it was lowkey awkward…well, for me at least.

    I’ve had a total of 3 crushes in my lifetime. Two of which were from middle school. And I was taller than both of them, of course. Ok, not like a million inches taller, but tall enough where you can notice the height difference. And it was very awkward, already while middle school being an awkward time in anyone’s life.

    But throughout the middle school years, I’d see them with their girlfriends who were always shorter than them. And I was like oh…so y’all don’t like me cuz I’m taller than you?? Welp, we’ll never know because I never asked. However, this became a pattern even as I got older – the whole girlfriends being shorter than their boyfriends. It kinda makes you ask, do guys prefer women who are shorter? Are tall women undesirable in the dating world?

    We’re gonna answer these questions and more in this episode, so tune in!

  • Being Tall Is A Disease? | The Scary Health Risks of Being Tall

    Being Tall Is A Disease? | The Scary Health Risks of Being Tall
    2025/05/15
    Y’all, also make sure you subscribe to my newsletter because SO MUCH has happened this week! Between concerts and colonoscopies, it’s been wild lol. Subscribe here to hear more about it: https://atallgirlspodcast.beehiiv.com/

    There is a strong connection between your height and your health. And yes, we commonly know the aches and pains and posture problems that come with being tall, but we’re gonna go deeper than that. Like I’m talking about chronic diseases, like bone disease, peripheral neuropathy, and certain cancers. Oof, that sounds scary. And lowkey it is, but we’ll get into that a little bit later.

    While we’re on the topic of diseases, apparently, being tall happens to be viewed as a disease, specifically for girls. Yeah, we’re going to get real deep into the health risks of being tall and what this whole “being tall was a disease” thing means, so let’s get into it!

    This episode was actually a request from one of you guys! One of you asked if I could do an episode on tall woman diseases, and if I could have a doctor on this episode. So yes, we are talking about diseases tall people are more susceptible to, BUT we don’t have a doctor on this episode lol. However, I will be incorporating TikTok videos of health professionals speaking on this matter.

    And this is a good time to provide a disclaimer. This is NOT meant to give medical advice. I am NOT a medical professional. I’m just a tall girl with a microphone who has done some research and is sharing it on the Internet lol.

    But before we get into diseases and so forth, let’s talk about something interesting I found.

    Apparently, being tall was viewed as a disease??? Back in the day, doctors would give young girls hormones to prevent them from growing to adult height. What’s the deal with that? Tune in to the full episode for more!

    Here is the article regarding this: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/la-oe-cosgrove5-2009apr05-story.html | https://hormonesmatter.com/des-used-stunt-growth-tall-girls/

  • The Infantilization of Short Women Vs. The Adultification of Tall Women | Height = Sexualization

    The Infantilization of Short Women Vs. The Adultification of Tall Women | Height = Sexualization
    2025/05/08
    Has anyone ever mistaken you for being older because of your height?

    I know I have, but we’ll get into that a little later. But I’m sure when you were like 11 or 12 or even a teenager, strangers or even distant family members assumed you were 1, 2, or even 5 years older than you actually were. And then when you told them your actual age, they were surprised. I mean at that age, many of us have baby faces, so it’s sometimes like: Do I really look that old???

    But what if I told you that regardless of whether or not people know your age, except maybe parents or close friends, people may treat you a certain way and perceive you a certain way because of your height. And yes, this goes for both tall and short girls.

    So without further ado, let’s get into it!

    Today, we are talking about how height affects how we are treated. Fun fact: We are talking a little bit about the short girlies and how they’re treated based on their height and will delve into that same topic for tall women. I know this podcast is for tall women, but I think for the purposes of this episode, it’s helpful to explain how this applies to the short girlies and compare that to the tall girlies.

    Tune in to the full episode where I talk about the infantilization of short women, the adultification of tall girls, and how both affect how we are treated and sexualized!

  • Tall Girls Are Trending On Social Media...And For The Wrong Reasons | Why Social Media Is TOXIC For Tall Women

    Tall Girls Are Trending On Social Media...And For The Wrong Reasons | Why Social Media Is TOXIC For Tall Women
    2025/05/01
    So apparently… tall girls are trending on social media???

    And lowkey for the wrong reasons.

    Let me explain.

    Over the past few weeks, I’ve been seeing on my TikTok feed specifically, men (keep this in mind for later), talking about tall women and saying how they’re beautiful, how they've been slept on in the dating world, and so forth. And these videos are getting tens of thousands and even hundreds of thousands of likes, views, shares, and so forth.

    Great. Awesome. You’re probably like, what’s wrong with that? Don’t you agree with them? Oh, of course I do. 100000%. But the thing is, tall women have been saying this for YEARS, but now it’s like, yesssssss tall women slay queen period sis purr. C’mon now.

    Now listen, this isn’t the only trend of tall women. We are trending right now for multiple reasons. It’s just that these men saying these things about tall women is a bit interesting to me. Once again, I don’t think that it’s a bad thing. I don’t think they have any ill intent. My thing is why is this a trending idea? Trends indicate what’s cool right now. What’s cool in the moment. Why is this cool right now when it should be cool overall, right?

    Tall women have always been amazing…it’s just why are so many people making this “trendy” now? And honestly, this really just shows how men kinda dictate what the societal beauty standards are and what’s considered conventionally attractive.

    Anyways, what are these men saying about tall women exactly? And why is social media a messy space for tall women? Tune in to the episode for more!

  • "You're Pretty For A Tall Girl" | The HARSH TRUTH About Beauty Standards for Tall Women

    "You're Pretty For A Tall Girl" | The HARSH TRUTH About Beauty Standards for Tall Women
    2025/04/24
    ‘Tall girls just aren’t that pretty.’

    That’s how we’re made to feel or even what we’re told growing up by our crush, our peers, even family and friends, and strangers. And it’s not a one-and-done thing. In fact, it’s recurring. We hear and feel this often enough for us to wonder:

    Does everyone have the same viewpoint of tall women?

    That we’re these ‘big’, awkward skyscrapers?

    Why? Why is this the case?

    I got 3 words for ya:

    Societal beauty standards.

    This is explained in a piece written in the Minnesota Daily by Sidney Clarke, who says, “height has been inextricably associated with a lack of conventional beauty.”
    Why is this the case? And how can we overcome this?

    Well, that’s what today’s episode is all about! Tune in for more!

  • What It's REALLY Like Being A Tall Girl | Why It's Such An Isolating Experience

    What It's REALLY Like Being A Tall Girl | Why It's Such An Isolating Experience
    2025/04/17
    Truthfully, being tall can be an isolating experience. I mean, it’s very rare to have a moment where you can just feel like everyone else. Whenever you walk into a room, you’re immediately noticed and get stares. People feel the need to make comments about your height. You see that cute fit your friends are wearing? Yeah, you can’t wear that because it’s not long enough. Experiences like these add up over time, causing us to feel like the odd one out constantly. Like the world treats you differently because of something you can’t control.

    After a while, you start to wonder if there's a place for you or just anyone who can understand or relate or literally treat you like a normal human being. Today, I will be breaking down why many of us tall women feel this silent loneliness and why we shouldn’t downplay this or pretend it doesn’t affect us.

    Ok, was this a bit dramatic?? Maybe. But also not really. Because high school me/middle school me felt this way. Felt really isolated, felt like the odd one out. And I wanna say super early on that this episode is to not complain about being tall or hating on it. Because I know people will say “oh you’re so lucky to be tall” and bla bla bla like I get it. For real. Being tall is a blessing but it also has its trying moments.

    People will call you the weirdest names.

    And say the most heinous things about your body and height.

    Strangers will stare and point at you in public.

    Even your friends will say/do some shady things.

    All of this is on top of the fact that you're hyper-aware of your height in public and are constantly comparing your height to your shorter peers.

    When living in a world where many people are shorter than you, it can be hard. Truthfully. If you can relate, I highly recommend checking this episode out!

  • Is Tall Clothing ACTUALLY Tall or Just a Scam?? | Why 'Tall' Clothing Still Isn't Tall Enough

    Is Tall Clothing ACTUALLY Tall or Just a Scam?? | Why 'Tall' Clothing Still Isn't Tall Enough
    2025/04/10
    Check out this playlist of tall brands: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0fCZgSUAcqOJo3PFAz4zQhiNfJGZF5kw

    By the time this episode is up, my birthday will have already passed! Ya girl is 23 years old PERIODDDDDDD XDDDDDD. I had a whole thing over the weekend to celebrate my birthday since my birthday was indeed on a Tuesday EWUH lol so we had to work but if you wanna see what happened and some flicks and such, make sure you check out my socials. And don’t forget to wish me a happy birthday!

    Alrighty, today we are talking about how some tall clothing is in fact not tall clothing. Over the course of the past few months, I’ve stumbled across a few videos of some tall girls complaining about how pants that were labeled as “tall” or “long” aren’t actually “tall” or “long”. Like the jeans were not hitting their ankles. Not even close LOL.

    And I find this interesting because when we talk about tall girl problems in regards to clothing, we typically talk about how clothing brands don’t cater to us at all. Like there’s no tall clothing available at that particular store. BUT we don’t talk about when tall brands do have tall clothing lines, but the items STILL AREN’T LONG ENOUGH. Now that’s a whole different level lol because it’s like why are you gonna label something as tall but it’s not long enough??

    Where did you get your market research from?

    Did you even do any market research??

    Anyways, I will go deeper into why these brands have tall clothing lines that aren’t actually “tall” and where we should be getting our clothes from instead. Tune in to the full episode for more!

  • This Surgery WILL RUIN Tall Girls | WTH is Height Reduction Surgery???

    This Surgery WILL RUIN Tall Girls | WTH is Height Reduction Surgery???
    2025/04/03
    Okay, I have to ask – am I the only one?

    Am I the only tall girly who has considered height reduction surgery?

    Okay I was like 10 when I was actively considering it lol so there was no way that was ever really gonna happen but still. I hated my height so much that I genuinely wanted it. But thank goodness I didn’t get it because NOW I really do love my height.

    So, what is height reduction surgery?

    Height reduction surgery is a procedure that aims to reduce overall height by removing a portion of a bone or intentionally damaging growth plates to stop further growth. And yes okay this is a real thing; go and look it up…or just listen to this episode.

    I honestly think there are several medical reasons why someone would get this surgery, such as to even out limbs that are at different lengths, but this procedure remains rare. Why?? Who knows. Maybe because of the various risks associated with it.

    However, the tall girlies are not looking to get this procedure for medical reasons. So why would they actively consider it? Tune in to the full episode to find out!

    And a big thanks to Sumissura for sponsoring today’s episode!

    Finding clothes that actually fit our length and proportions is one of the biggest struggles tall women face. Because, let’s be real, most big brands just don’t get it. They either ignore us completely or think adding a couple of inches makes something “tall.” Yeah… not quite.

    That’s where Sumissura comes in. They’re a custom clothing brand that uses a made-to-measure system to create garments tailored to your body. All you have to do is enter your height, weight, and body type, and using over 13 years of algorithm training, they predict your measurements, including leg length, waist, and more so that you never have to second-guess the fit.

    Check out their links below to dress the real you:
