Will the real tall girls please stand up? As a “tall girl” myself, I can honestly say that there are some things I know to be so ridiculously true because of my height. Whether you idolize Blake Lively, Nicole Kidman, Taylor Swift, Tyra Banks, Jordan Sparks, or any other of our tall socialites, there is truly something special about us tall girls. Even though I am 5’9” and considered to be on the short end of the tall scale, I think most if not all of us tall girls relate to one another. Here are 21 things tall girls can relate to.
1. The first question everyone asks you is, “How tall are you?”
2. The first question is followed by, “Wow, you’re tall for a girl!”
3. Finding a size 10, 11, 12 or larger shoe is practically impossible.
4. People always tell you to stop wearing heels because you are already “too tall”.
5. Standing on the floor at concerts is great for you, but horrible for everyone behind you.
6. The tallest guy at the party is automatically yours unless he’s into short girls.
7. Speaking of which, short girls need to stop dating tall guys. For the love of God and all that is holy, leave some tall guys for the tall girls. We only have so many around to pick from.
8. Dating a guy shorter than you seemed socially unacceptable, but then Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban made it adorable.
9. We actually do not mind helping others get something off the top shelf at the grocery store, especially little old ladies.
10. When stores do not hold a pair of jeans in “talls”, we almost lose our sh*t.
11. Shirts that do not have long enough sleeves are one of our biggest pet peeves.
12. Stores like Forever 21, H&M, Urban Outfitters, and other brands make their dresses for tall girls who do not mind their booty hanging out of the bottom of their dress.
13. Speaking of dresses, long dresses look amazing on us.
14. We have legs for days.
15. Sitting in cars is always fun, especially smart cars and two door sports cars. *SARCASM*
16. Our height gives us an automatic smidgen of confidence that cannot be explained to anyone who is not as tall as we are.
17. Unless we are ballerinas, we are not the best dancers. However, we are not as bad as Taylor Swift. She is the tall queen of bad dancing and we love her for it anyways.
18. We most likely have been asked if we have played basketball as a sport.
19. We have most likely been called Amazon or Giant by our peers.
20. We pray for a tall husband and children because #FutureQuarterback.
