あらすじ・解説
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!
