Caitlin asked:
They’re always saying that they’re cute and that tall girls are manly looking. I know that tall female bodybuilders look manly, but I don’t get why they say normal tall girls are ugly/manly. Is this a jealousy problem or what? (I’m 5′7)
5′7 for a twelve year old isn’t average.
xXPrincessXx, I’m sorry, but you’re an idiot.
I’m not jealous of shortie like you. Stop trying to make yourself feel better.

little big man syndrome….or should i say, little big woman syndrome
i am really tall too(5′9) and short people always what to be my height…and all i can say is that they are jealous!!
because they’re jealous
I dont think all short girls think that. But I know what you mean. Maybe they just have short person syndrome
yes mainly jealousy, and insecurity, they want to be tall but their not so they are taking it out on the tall people
cuz they are cute
maybe its a youthful feature
I like em
sexy to be able to easily lift somebody too
I don’t think that way and I’m 4′11″ I think that there are some reasons why shorter girls are better than taller girls. But taller girls can be better than shorter girls.
They are very jealus thats why they say that
5′7″ is average. and petite girls are mean because we feel the need to compensate for our shortcomings. ba dum cha.
im 5′2″ and thats more like danny devito than your 5′7″ and heidi klum. you win
i am not jealous at you…i don’t care if i have a humble size…but tall women seem to be domineering….that’s it
i am only 5′2, and i really wish that i were taller. not because of any other reason than this….i want to be able to reach something without having to reach for a stool first! personally, i never heard of what your saying.
I am 5′9″ and I love being tall!! I would never want to be short. And no I don’t look manly at all.
well what Ive heard is that they will always be getting into arguments with the tall girls and a topic that always comes up is boys because they say that because there short they ll always be the right size for guys but that has some downsides to it to i mean try becoming a model and being short.
theyre jealous. im neither small or tall but tall girls have long legs and look like models, not men. some small girls probably just wish they had a few more inches.
they think so because they are.
i’m 4′9 and have never said anything like that… i’m pleased with my height and to the person who said “try being a model” towards short girls..i do model. If I need to be taller, we have shoes for that.
they are trying to make up for what they lack. in this case hieght.
Jealousy problem???? I believe there may be an insecurity problem, and its not the “short girls,” it’s you.
To make a sweeping generalization that “short girls think they’re better,” and that “they’re always saying that they’re cute,” says much about YOU.
I have never in my entire life heard a nasty comment from any of my (short) family, friends, or clients about taller women. Quite the contrary, I have heard many times “look at her long beautiful legs.”
My guess is that someone short hurt your feelings, called you a name regarding your stature, and now you are taking it out on everyone under 5 ft 4.
Get over it. Investing in all this negative energy, and essentially PREJUDICE, is just hurting your character and reputation. Never make a generalization about ANY group of people. EVERYONE in the world is an individual.
And that’s my $0.02
That’s very stereotypical.
Im short, but I never say things like that.
And yes, I’m jealous, but you’ll never hear me say mean things like that.
And you’ll never see me being stereotypical, either.
It is but natural.
For the same reason that miniature dogs are cuter than regular breeds. Kidding. I’m 5′8, not a hint of me is manly, and , honey, I still wear heels . If it bugs you that much, just step on them.
they are jealous biatches
too tall is freak lol…tall lady can’t walk better than short people with wearing height heels..
im twelve too and i **** being short. im only like 4′11 and i wish i was tall. nobody around here thinks that they’re cute because they’re short.
I think that BS you are hearing from some girls stems from insecurity.
Personally, I am fairly short, 5′4″, and I don’t think any of my tall girlfreinds are manly looking.
I also found that tall girls thought they were “better than” short girls when I was your age. I think it’s an age old stupidity that puts women who are a bit different against eachother and it’s daft and exceptionally childish.
It’s simply another form of prejudice. If you don’t like someone because they are different, then you are prejudiced, whether it’s height, weight, skin colour…
Female bodybuilders take steroids and work out for up to 5 hours a day to look manly, and they like that look. There are men who like that! Who cares what some other girl thinks, you know you are not manly looking, don’t you? Look in the mirror, girl, if ” the comment”: isn’t true regarding you, repeat the following mantra: “So what! Who cares about, what so and so thinks, I am beautiful, and I am letting go of her comment.” Repeat many times while standing in front of the mirror until you beleive it!
I don’t consider myself short. My second suggestion is to refrain from judging people by their height, so people don’t judge you by yours as much. What you throw out there in the universe has a tendency to come right back to you.
The only person anyone should be judging is their own self. We are all unique women, and when you are young you are trying to figure out who that woman is. While you’re learning who you are, don’t let others squash your spirit, or waste your time in negativity! There’s enough of that out there, don’t invite it to your doorstep.
Find out who you are that makes you important to those in your life, that’s sooooo much more important than height and weight!
There are men who like tall women, petite women and everything in between, and women of all weights, so I ask you why do you care what some silly ****** are saying? Why let it influence your sense of self?
Finally ask yourself the following question regardingthe sill comment(s) Is there any real competition going on here? Should I be wasting precious time worrying about this? NOOOOOOOO!
The same men will not like the same women, simple, there’s chemistry, body types and personalities that we are all drawn to.

hey girl, I’m 5′1” 21 yrs old. Actually i have always loved my height. Never had a problem with it b/c I usually wear 4 inch heals when I go out and the only reason I wouldnt want to be tall is b/c I wouldnt be able to wear the 4 inch heals. But that’s how i see it. There is absolutly nothing wrong w/ being 5′7”. That is still beatiful. Yeah probably some girls might be jealous I don’t know. 5′7” is not manly. Look at the Victoria Secret models. They are soooooo tall. Ex: Tyra Banks is taller than 5′7″ and she’s not looked upon as a manly person. Height does not matter. You just dress up and look good and everything fits perfectly. If someone says something about that you need to just keep your head up and FEEL PROUD.
Caitlin, I hear you girl, loud & clear, I’m 5′8 & I’ve always had short friends, & they always made me feel like I was some kind of alien. I have a short friend right now & she’s always boasting about herself. but its definitely a JEALOUSY thing, because the other day, I heard her say she wished she was tall. I don’t let that get to me anymore, because they will never look like elegant graceful models, like you & I, with long torsos & super long legs! We’re very hott & more easily noticed, we stand out in the croud, so they have to compensate with their mouth & big egos to get noticed.
Sounds like you know some bitchy f’d up short girls!!! I wish I was tall so I could try out for top model and reach my cupboards without a stool!!!
I think they are just jealous… we can kick there butt’s more…lol!
You only ask that question because you’re tall. There are plenty of short girls who are asking why tall girls think they’re better.
I am 5′2″ and I do not think I am any better than the next person. However, I am very happy with my height and I do think that short people, man or female are extremely cute. That is just my opinion. Plus ,I get lots of help getting things down that are too high for me to reach and I like that attention. Tall is not manly to me. My whole family is tall. But I have noticed that a tall woman, short man couple do not look that good, per say. Whereas, a short woman can stand next to short or tall and still look alright.
girl,I’m 5′8,all my life I’ve been skinny,cheerful,always ready to do everything for my friends….and i have a lot problem with women….why?? because most of women are jealous on tall girls,and if they r funny ones they **** them even more! I’m happy because of that,that is a great experience because jealous girls are ready to do everything to beat you in every single look and after that u learn a lot of tricks so in future u r able to recognize that type of women.just be good with boys because they r better friends than girls,i say that to you because i have a lot of boyfriends and my boyfriend who love me….but just one girlfriend that I know since birth(but she is also ready to do tricky things to be in center of attention but I’ve learned tricks so when I see that he want to do something to me I say to her what is my opinion and everything ends good)
i hope that u understood me
kisses
it’s just their defense mechanism…
i tink ders good and bad to both sizes – im short, nd i love being short it means i can wear heels only annoying thing is getting into places!! den tall people always look alot older – bt this is at my age(16)!
Maybe because they are deluding themselves, defending themselves out of jealousy. You know girls do not usually speak their minds.Maybe they have a high ego.
Im a petite girl. haha.
I’m average height (5′7″ish) at age 20.
I have NEVER thought I was any worse or better than others based on height. I don’t think taller girls are manly, I don’t think shorter girls are always feminine. If you are worried about your image, try wearing more fitting clothing and something more feminine. Don’t worry about what others have to say, you’re young and there are more important things in life than height.
sweetheart, how far is cute gona get them. im 5′9. i was 5′7 in grade 7 and i kept growing bit by bit. im not extremly tall, but tall enough to hear the cute bit. BUT, let me tell you, clothes look better on us, heals look better on us. we stand out, we have long legs and long cores. Pure jealousy. the fact that they have to say, or point out that they’re “cute”, or tell you your ugly and manly is just a way to make themselves feel better. just laugh in their faces, proudly wear those heals, and try not to step on them while you strut past.
I’m average. But ***! Where did you get these statistics?! You mean GUYS are always saying that short girls are cute. Oooooooooh, I see who’s jealous! haha
FYI: Love yourself the way you are and don’t pay attention to any haters. Height is NOT the most imposrtant thing in this world.
because we are so much better.A man wants a girl that he could pick up,and toss around.not some one thar he will look at her in the eye like a man.We seem to be more CUTE!! thats fact.
