We are BACKKKKKK with another episode of A Tall Girl’s Podcast! So glad you’re here :) Before I get into this episode, I do wanna say, make sure you’re following me on my socials @atallgirlspodcast on Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest so that you can stay up to date on all of the latest podcast episodes and catch a glimpse of my everyday life. Also, feel free to leave me a review below and let me know how tall you are!
Being tall often comes with a bunch of stereotypes.
Athlete, model, masculine, intimidating, aggressive, authoritative, the list goes on and on.
And there are other physical characteristics that, when combined with height and being tall, can kind of double down on these stereotypes.
Like being tall and thin, for example, people like to associate that with being a model. Being tall and plus-sized means many people associate that with aggression and intimidation. Same if you’re tall with a more athletic build. People can even go as far as calling you masculine.
And then there’s being tall and Black as a woman, which we’ll dive into today, especially after a comment about Michelle Obama (and no, this is nothing political, as this is not that type of podcast).
But in today’s episode, we’re going to discuss that comment and how it kinda represents the tall Black woman experience. Tune in for more!
Thank you so so much for tuning in to the episode; I really appreciate it, and I appreciate you. Of course, as always, feel free to hit me up on my socials @atallgirlspodcast on Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest, and let me know what you thought about this episode!

Goodnight and goodbyyyyyeee,
