storyofatallgirl asked: I love this blog. I feel so normal when I read the posts :) I'm 20 and 6'2. I've been over 6 feet since 7th grade, and it's nice to know that there's people out there going through the same thing that I am. Thanks for making this blog! :)
Tall Vegetable
I’m 15 and 6’ tall! I love being this height, but sometimes it can be a little embarrassing. For example, I went to an audition at a modeling agency last week, and when the agent saw me, she said “WOW YOU ARE ONE TALL VEGETABLE!” I thanked her, but what does a TALL VEGETABLE mean!? :)
Embrace it!
My boyfriend's a shorty
When I developed a crush on my best friend, I thought we could never happen, because he’s 3 inches shorter than me. Nearly a year later I confessed to liking him, and now we’re a couple, but being in public is awkward, cause I feel like people stare at us. Not cause he’s shorter, but because I’m taller. When we hold hands, he makes the comment, ‘your arms are so...
ifinitelight asked: Heey! Just wanna say that i love your blog. Helps me when i'm feeling bad and stuff. Great to know that i'm not alone in this world! I'm brazilian and everybody is veeeeery short over here hahah just wanna say thank you :3
Sitting down
Being invited for a drink while sitting down, then when you stand up, the guy actually shouts “Oh crap!” and finds a way to run off within two minutes. Every. Time
neilsperry asked: I'm 19 and about 5'8 - 5'9 and growing up I was always the tallest girl in my class and I used to hate it but as I got older and entered middle school, I realized that being tall is awesome and having long legs is fun! I mean yeah, it's difficult to sit in cars with no leg space and other things but I wasn't blessed with big boobs or a nice butt like the rest of the women...
spork-mother asked: I'm almost 20 and I've been the same height-5'11 since the 6th grade. When I was in Jr. High school, the boys would throw sticks at me and call me 'tree' I'd just ignore them, but once I stopped to tie my shoes and some jackass goes 'she's tying her roots together!" I have to admit, it was pretty funny. Just not at the time. Now I have a 6'5"...
thirteenthirteen asked: In response to the girl who said she carries a measuring tape: Thats so funny! I met Aaron Carter in January and he's like "You're like 6'4!!!" and I'm like "No, 6'1" and hes like "No you're not! You're 6'4! My co-star is 6'4 and you're the same height!!!" "Nope. 6'1..."

daydreamingupastorm asked: HI! I want to thank you for making this blog. I'm 17 and 6 feet tall. The majority of my friends are shorter than me and they always give me crap for being so tall. After I found this blog, I now feel so much better about my height. I now wear heels and wedges a lot more now to embrace it. Being tall is amazing. To those girls who feel insecure about it, EMBRACE IT TO THE FULLEST. We are tall...
classy-not-trashyladies-deactiv asked: Freshmen year of high school the Senior boys took to calling a good friend of mine who is also a tall girl and myself "trees" because we were taller than them.
Whenever I go out, tall men ignore me in favor of short girls, and short guys follow me around because my 40D boobs are directly at their eye level.
Today I went to get pedicures with my mom and my sisters. At 5’9 I’m not the tallest girl out there, but as the girl straightened my leg in the chair she had to scoot backwards and said, “your legs are so long!” Me and my sister (who is also tall) had a good laugh.
I seriously hate how it’s ok to go up to someone and be like “omigod, you’re so tall.” but it’s totally the most horrible insult in the world to say “you’re short”.
It was revealed to me that, at a mere 5’11”, Liam is the tallest member of One Direction. All dreams are crushed.

This is me and some of my best friends, despite the nearly-one-foot height gap! I wouldn’t trade these girls, or my height, for the world!
cashevans asked: I think every tall girl should carry around a measuring tape! I do. I love it when I get the guys who go "You have to be taller than 6' because I'm 6'..." so I pull out my measuring tape and say "Well, let's check." I've done this countless of times and every guy just shrugs it off Hahaha, no guy lets me measure them.
pink--berry asked: I'm 14 and 5'10" it's unknown if I'm done growing or not. That rule of thumb that you stop growing 2 years after your period doesn't work on me. I'm still growing 2 inches a year. At this rate I'll be over 6 feet. I'm only 14 so the whole finiding a boy taller than you is not a worry at the moment. But I know it will turn into a bigger problem as I get...
kristinator asked: I'm 17 and only 5'8", so I'm not as tall as others that come on here, but I can relate so much! And being half Asian, I tower over most people I know. I love this blog though!<3
vintage-music-romance asked: Hi! I love your blog! I'm 16 years old and 5'11 haha I love being tall!(:

When all your celebrity crushes are depressingly shorter than you…
so today at work, some older guy comes in and is being fairly nice, but then he asks me how tall i am. i was kinda slouching, but i told him 6ft. he then said that i wasnt, and that there’s something wrong with a generation where women can look men straight in the eye. i proceeded to stand up completely straight, which made me taller than him, and said to each his own, but i prefer being...
I’m 14 and I’m as tall as my brother, MY 20-YEAR OLD BROTHER
Bro,
I’m 14 and already 5’8 . I’m supposed to be 5’10. alot of people say they want to be as tall as me. but im always like ” short girls are better, they can be tall when ever they want. all they need to do is put on some heels” but i’m actually starting to like my height. It’s nice to know im not alone, so thanks (:
The funniest thing, omg
I was taking my yearbook picture today and the guy had to put the podium on a platform for me. Then he goes “how tall are you girl?” In my head I’m like, this is definitely going on tall girl problems.

I’m 13 and i’m 5’11. enough said…
I’m 13 and I’m already 5’5. I am already taller than my mom!! Its irritating when the boys at my middle school make fun of me because I tower over them:-( People always say they wish they could be tall but I wish I could be short.
l-exorcist asked: this blog makes me feel normal ^_^ i'm 5'11", nearly six feet tall. and i'm a fourteen year old girl. so thank you :D

I’m 18, 6’2 and everytime I feel bad about my height I come to this site and gain all my motivation back. We are so beautiful and unique and I’m glad I’m not up here all alone. <3 thanks ladies
vicweasley23 asked: To the girl who posted saying she was in between 5'8" and 5'9", about 150 lbs, etc.; I know how you feel! I'm 5'9" and weigh the same, and I naturally have broad shoulders! It's a pain trying on shirts because a lot of them show my bra straps. And bra shopping is a nightmare! Good thing I love sports bras (: The only bad thing is that I have a longer than...
spork-mother asked: I'm 5'11" and have been since I was 12. My mom used to go to the transvestite clothing stores to buy me high heeled shoes when she couldn't find them at second hand stores.
midnight-disasters asked: im 5'10 and im sixteen! i hate being tall because all my boyfriends have been shorter than me and its really embarrassing to have to look down on them and instead of girls being on there tippy toes to kiss there boyfriends, its the other way around ahah. but all they guys i have asked say they like short girls and nobody likes tall ones. 0.o whats to like about how tall we are?
I’m somewhere in between 5’8” and 5’9”, which I realize isn’t extremely tall but it is when you compare me to my friends. For a long time I loved being tall, and then I realized that I didn’t like having to literally look down on my family and friends (especially the guy ones!) I weigh around 150 pounds, which is a healthy weight level for my height but...
What people ALWAYS say to tall girls!!

so true, amiright?!?
handoffatima asked: Im 5'9 and when i meet people is usually normal and they dont say anything, but when I wear heels I easily get to 6'ft... and that's when everybody comments on my height..I don't love being tall because all the guys here are shorter, but is has it's benefits also. I don't now! should i be happy with it?
broskim asked: 5' 9", 16 years old with size 3 to 4 shoe size, my legs are three fourths of my body, my arms don't fit in a long sleeve small size t-shirt because they're so long...Disproportionate for life!
lust-and-ramblings asked: In respond to your list you posted earlier. I'm 5'11" and as a teenager in HS (I'm 27 now) people always asked this : Are you on the basketball team. Nope. Volleyball team? Nope. I play tennis. Oh... Some people thought this was a waste of my height. My reply, I hate basketball, and volleyball.
andallthatfunstuff asked: When friends are complaining about their weight so you mention yours and their comeback is...but you're tall so it's okay! Yeah that makes me feel better. Am I the only one who gets this? Yes? No? Haha. Bothers me so much. Ugh.
I hate going for a run in my neighborhood.
Nobody cuts their branches and I have to run like the Hunchback of Notre Dame -_-
but on the plus side, I’ve mastered the art of running and ducking at the same time & I’m that much closer to becoming a ninja :)
