This episode is actually inspired by a few comments I’ve gotten on my socials over the past few weeks. If you don’t follow me on my socials (like how dare you lol jk jk), I typically post podcast clips and commentary style vids so essentially much of my content is more commentary style in regard to tall women in society and so forth. Meaning that I often talk about the struggles we face. And there are two particular comments that stood out to me. One was under a TikTok video of me basically discussing how tall women aren’t viewed as feminine and we try to overcompensate by hyper-feminizing ourselves and essentially acting in a way that just isn’t natural to us. This person specifically commented that petite women are more feminine end of story and that I can’t reason my way out of this AND I shouldn’t try to convince men who don’t like tall women to like them. And I’m like this video isn’t even directed towards men nor did I even mention anything about a man lol. Chill out bruv. In another post (I was discussing how we hyper-feminize ourselves because people call us/see us as masculine), someone commented with a picture of a fake credit card with “victim card” on top of it. And I’m like Oh?? Haha ok???? I’m noticing a pattern here: people tend to dismiss our struggles, experiences, and insecurities.Anyways, so this does raise the question: are tall women’s insecurities real? Why do people often dismiss them? I dive deeper into the answers in my podcast episode!
