Tall Girl Problems

Kendra, 17 years old, 5'10.5

For all the beautiful tall girls and the problems we have to endure. Through all the teasing, feeling out of place & short hems, I'm finally coming to a point where I realized that there's nothing wrong with being a little different. People still try to tear me down about it but there will always be people doing that. These problems are mostly to make you laugh & go "OH MY GOD. THAT'S MY LIFE." But this is more than just a place to share each other's problems. It's a support group where we encourage girls to see the beauty within them (so play nice, ladies). Ask me anything & feel free to submit!


"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be and you're only as small as the world will make you seem."

I’m about to give you my life story kid. lol

Okay. So I’ve been tall all my life and I’ve always always always been made fun of for it. By the time I was 13, I was sick of being tall and everybody knew I had low self-esteem, even my teacher. So one day she made me make a list of the things I liked about myself and I could only name two things. Then, I realized that was a HUGE problem, so I decided to fix it. People saying “omg! you should be a model!” isn’t really a compliment to me so I had to start imagining tall people as regal and elegant and beautiful. Then, I was admiring all tall people but myself and I realized that I could be beautiful too. I was chosen to stand out, not be ostracized. Like, everybody has problems: tall girls, short girls blahblahblah. But it’s what you make of what you’re given that counts. I decided my height makes me special because tall girls have to be strong, because we face so much shit everyday, all our lives. And I was chosen to be one of the strong ones. So yea, inside the mind of a tall girl :)
