Everybody at school expects me to play basketball because of my height I think that that is right. I think people should recognize my other many talents.

Tall girls are for short guys to go up on.
It’s not true that all tall boys/girls/people are made to play sports any more than it is true that all short people are made to shine shoes or play “mini me” in movies! Talk up your other talents, especially those that most appeal to you. Better yet, show off those talents so others can see you’re much more well-rounded than what their limited stereotypes allow! Best wishes.
Tall girls have an advantage over smaller girls because so few girls are tall.
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! It’s ridiculous to assume that just because you’re tall that you’re somehow genetically predisposed to being a sports goddess! I’m over 6′1 and in playing sports, I’ve come across very tall girls who were probably much better at things other than the sport that somebody made them play.
My parents also tried to force me to play basketball and I hated it. I can’t even watch girls play it to this day. If you’ve given sports a chance and don’t like it, spend your time doing something that makes you happy!
I don’t think that every girls wants to play sports. If you are tall there is still no reason that you have to like sports.
I think that some people enjoy many different types of activiteslie sports, drawing (artist), writers (authors). and dance or musically talented.
Don’t let people pressure you into something that you do not want to do. To do anything well you need to enjoy that activity.
