Whether you are abnormally short, tall, red-haired, or curly-haired, it is tough to stand out in adolescence. However, growing up you realize the value in being unique, and here are ten things that every short girl comes to appreciate.

1. You never have to worry about being taller than guys.

5'10" Taylor Swift complained in "Begin Again" that "he didn't like it when I wore high heels." This is not an issue when you are shorter than most of the guys that you know. You can wear whatever shoes you want and date whomever you want without looking uneven.

2. You are easy to lift.

Obviously this is fun if you are a cheerleader, but it works out in other aspects of life. You can help change light bulbs and reach things in otherwise unreachable places. If you were short as a child, it took you many years to outgrow being carried around like a toddler. In fact, your friends can probably still give you piggyback rides.

3. You can fit into children's clothes.

This is really annoying if you are not big enough to fit into women's sizes at all, but if you are just the right size to wear children's or adult clothes, you are in great shape. This works out well for jeans and shoes that look the same in kids' sizes, but are half the price!

4. You always have enough legroom.

This is applicable to airplanes, cars, couches, and beds. It is so much more comfortable getting to sit places when your legs aren't crammed up against another seat or sleeping without your legs hanging off of your bed.

5. Your clothes take up less space.

You can go a long time without needing to do a load of laundry, and you can fit more clothing into your suitcases than your taller friends. Imagine how difficult it would be to pack if all of your pants took up more room.

6. Clothes cannot be made bigger.

It is okay if you do not quite fit into that perfect dress that you absolutely must have, because you can get it tailored. You would not have this luxury if you were too big for the article of clothing. You also do not have to worry about your t-shirts shrinking in the drier, as they are usually too big to begin with.

7. You'll always look young.

This may be infuriating when you are a teenager and your tall friends can get into R-rated movies or bars, but I promise you will appreciate this when you are older. Even by the time you are 25 you are going to love looking like a college student, and the joy just gets greater as you get older.

8. You can fit into tight spaces.

You were a hide-and-seek master as a child, and now you can hide from your ex-boyfriend who is unexpectedly in the same room as you. You can also comfortably crawl under a table to get a ball during a game of pong or push your way through a crowded room.

9. You belong in the front row everywhere.

You don't have to feel bad about pushing yourself up to the front row at a concert if you are shorter than everyone you go in front of. You are also a prime candidate for your friends' shoulders.

10. You're adorable!

Ariana Grande, Hayden Panettiere, Anna Kendrick, Natalie Portman, and Vanessa Hudgens all show that short girls are the hottest!
