I'm A Tall Girl

If you met me, I wouldn't have to tell you. Since you might not have, it bears a mention. I am 6 feet. 6'3" with heels and my hair. Most days I think it is a really cool thing. I mean, people always remember you. But sometimes when you go out and you meet a guy and it is clear that he is into you but just can't stop feeling weird about your height, it kind of sucks. I know. I know. If he can't accept me and love me for who I am, then he's not worth it, blah, blah, blah. Still, it sucks at times. This guy was really cute and cool. A friend of a friend. But he just couldn't feel comfortable. Clues of his discomfort include lame comments like, "I've never danced with a girl taller than me." or "Just how tall are you?" or "Let me see your shoes." OK, OK. You're insecure and lame. I get it. I get it. The thing I do that is bad is I internalize it all like there's something wrong with me. Or worse, I start to get all chummy with him in a "I'm your height so now you can de-femininize me so you can feel like I'm one of you." Boy, I have to deal with that.

By the way, I rented Freaky Friday (the new one) through my new best friend, Netflix and it made me happy. There I said. Right now, I am at a coffee bar listening to Sheryl Crow. That makes me very, very unhappy.

Tall girls are hot.

Right now im in a relationship with a girl who is 6 ft. 2 in. and im only 5 ft. 7in. and ya know what its ok. I never even notice unless people are starring or someone says something to us. I understand that the height difference can be difficult but for the record it's not easy being on the short end of the stick either. The bottom line is that I love her. I know that thats a cliche, but at some point in your life you start to ignore what other people think. Your own personal happiness is whats most important. Its possible that you were meant to meet a man who was "big" enough to not care about how tall you are.

Well gosh
I've never danced with a girl taller than me either. I danced with a girl same height once (she 's 6'6") and I LOVED it.

Tall girls rule ! Absolutely .

The vanity of height, weight, bust size, liklikness to Tyra Banks, and other unimportant matters, none more so than the innane question I am always asked by girls at bars since arriving to America from Europe: "What kind of car do you drive?" I drive a 1995 Geo Prism with a side mirror knocked off, and dents all over it, and, even if they don't think so, I know I'm cool. How? Cause I have seen my faults and flaws, and still like myself. And believe me these faults and flaws have nothing whatsoever to do with height, weight, etc. We are only what is inside us; and no idiot at a bar will ever be able to tell that, at least not on first inspection. Stand tall, dear lady, you sound fabulous to me!

I'm a 6'2" female and am 46 years old. I've been 6' or over since I was 16. I was then, and still am, built like a super model, however, I never was one. I did a little modeling when I was younger, but mostly I was a stage performer (theatre, not stripper!) I'm now a theatrical producer and have been happily married for 20 years to a wonderful, talented, sexy 5'4" man. Height has nothing to do with anything - especially love. Flaunt it!

I'm in the process of starting a business for tall women, because I'm frustrated with the fashion choices available to us. I've started a blog site to gather opinions from other tall women about their fashion/shopping experiences.

My site contains a fashion journal, observations, links & critiques, facts, stats & fashion tips, and a discussion page for women 5'9" and over pertaining to the fashion industry. Join the discussion! Share your opinions & experiences with other tall women about the pros and cons of buying clothes from retail stores, direct mail catalogs & online shopping. Your opinion matters! Your comment are important to all tall women interested in fashion and desiring a broader range of shopping choices, trendier styles, better fit and affordable prices.

im tall im 5'8 its good being tall the average height for a female is 5'4 so ur unique its better than being common..

A male friend of mine, whose name I shall not reveal, is about 5'4". We spoke about the prospect of dating unusually tall women once. He said: "Hey, I don't discriminate! And if all the other men are too intimidated to make a move on tall women -- then it's all the better for me!" That's not an exact quote -- but it was something like that!

i am 6ft 7in guy, believe it or not its harder in developing countries like nigeria,they feel its abnormal for someone to be of that height,ive received comments like "is there any other person taller than you" there a weird feeling around especially since i consider most nigerians to be very short,but girl i like tall girls they look more attractive and appealing to me.
