Are Tall Girls Jealous of Short Girls?

Good morning everybody. You are currently listening to a Tall Girls podcast hosted by a tall girl named India. I hope everyone who is tuning in today is doing super fantastic. Before I get into this episode, I do want to say, make sure you're following me on my socials at a Tall Girls podcast on Instagram, TikTok, in Pinterest, so that you could stay up today on all of the latest podcast episodes can catch a glimpse of my everyday life. Also, feel free toly my review and let me know how tall you are. I'm genuinely curious. Everything is going to be linked to the description. At a very interesting meeting the other day, I'm trying to do this thing called networking. Yeah, I am in my last semester of undergrad if you didn't know, and I'm trying to expand my network. Oh that feels so weird saying that. I don't know why, Maybe because it's all new to me. Anyways, I've been doing this online networking thing. I don't know. There's this platform that I used and go to. They host like a lot of networking events based on your industry or just in general. And I finally tried a live networking event there, and it almost reminded me of like speed dating. So I was speed networking and it was just a bunch of professionals. A lot of them or all of them were business owners. That was like the theme of this event. And they split us out into breakout rooms. So we the whole entire event was about an hour, and we had probably about like eight minutes to talk to each person who we were partnered up with or tripled up with. I don't know, two to four people in each breakout room, so you never know who was going to be in the breakout room, how many people and so forth and so on. So I was like, screw it, I'm gonna try it. Let's just see how it goes. And I actually met a couple cool people, and I don't know, I feel like eight minutes eight minutes sounds like a lot of time at first, but when you actually get to talking to these people and learning more and more about them, you kind of realize that eight minutes goes by very, very very fast. It's kind of like four minutes per person, or over three people, almost three minutes per person, and four people, it's like two minutes per person, and you just begin to realize that eight minutes is not enough time to introduce yourself here the other person's introduction, and kind of have a conversation about your commonalities. Anyways, So I met this one person. He has his own agency. It's like an SEO. If you don't know what SEO is, it's search engine optimization. He has his own SEO and advertising agency. And we agreed to talk outside of the platform and we did and it was really really nice. Part of me was like a little bit intimidated because he, I mean, he's farther along than I am, obviously in his career, but he just seems like he kind of has it together. And I was sitting there like, oh, I'm just a freelancer, because I'm a freelance content market is a freelancer and a college student trying to make her way, and he's already like doing big things and I don't know. It's just a very weird feeling. It's a very interesting feeling just seeing how many other people have come up far and have in my eyes at least been successful in their careers and I'm sitting here feeling a little bit stagnant, and I know that I can't really go much of anywhere, simply because I have to maintain that time to do homework and comm to school and sit in class and stuff. Not to say like I'm appreciative, I'm grateful that I'm able to get an education, because I know not everybody has the capabilities of doing that. But I feel like sometimes or at least maybe it's just a school system here, but sometimes I just feel like I really could be doing more with my kid to get to where I want to be. So but it was it was a nice meeting. I really enjoyed that, and I guess you could say I made my first ever network through that platform, so I'm kind of kind of excited to see how that goes. Anyways, moving on to the topic of today's episode, the major question of the day here is are tall girls jealous of short girls? I'd love to hear your opinions about this. Is this controversial, oh, one hundred and ten percent, Well, not really that controversial, but either way, I want to hear your take of tall girls being jealous of short girls. But my opinion, my hot take, well, really, in reality, there are tall girls who are jealous of shorter girls, and I guess you could say I was one of them at some point in time, but I was only really jealous of the fact that shorter girls can find nice clothes that fit them much easier than I could. Some of the reasons that I hear why a tall girl may be jealous of a shorter girl is that guys may prefer shorter women when dating, or short girl are just more socially accepted or they're more attractive, And honestly, that's ridiculous. I mean, no Tino shade to all the short girls out there, But what I'm trying to say is that this is not a competition of who's prettier or who's better, or at least it shouldn't be. People have different bodies, people have different features, people have different looks, and that's what ultimately makes us unique and it's meant to be that way. It's what makes us who we are, it's what makes us beautiful, it's what makes us amazing in the eyes of others. But I mean, if you're a tall girl also struggling with the whole jealousy thing, it turns out you're not alone. Tall girls are jealous of short girls. Short girls are jealous of tall girls. Everyone is jealous of everyone. Everyone wants what they don't have. And I'm not saying that wanting what you don't have is necessarily a bad thing, because you could want a higher salary, you could want a better apartment, you could want a healthier lifestyle, you could want a higher status, and you may not have those things right now, but wanting those things can ultimately help you and drive you and motivate you to achieve those goals that you have, and it could be beneficial in the long run. But I that's a different story. I mean, height really isn't good or bad either way. Each one has their own challenges, each one has their own struggles, so I really wouldn't say that one is better than the other. But if you're like on the extreme end of the spectrum, that's when it could actually be detrimental, especially for your health. Oh my gosh, there was this one. There wasn't this one TikTok, but I just saw on TikTok and I kind of went down a rabbit hole with that because I found it interesting. But on TikTok I found out that there was like this seven foot high school basketball player. I don't remember how tall he was he's like seven to three or something like that. Either way, this man was over seven feet and he was only in high school. And typically when you're in high school year between the ages of like fourteen and eighteen thirteen and eighteen thirteen and seventeen, fourteen and eighteen, depending on what month you were born. So this man was a teenager at seven feet tall. And guys usually don't stop growing till much later than girls. They usually don't stop growing till like in their twenties. And this man was already seven feet tall. And there were a lot of videos of him playing basketball, and you could see him running up and down the court, and he you could visibly tell that. You could look at him and tell that he was in so much pain trying to run up and down this court. And I don't know, I just, oh, it was so disheartening. I felt so bad for the kid. I don't know if it was like a genetic condition or something. I think it was a condition, or maybe his genetics were wilden, I don't know, but trying to carry that much weight and your body is still developing like that, that is not going to be okay. So you could tell he was not doing well, and he was set to go to the NBA, but he kind of just disappeared. We don't know where this man is. Maybe I should. I think I'm going to try to find him after I'm done recording this episode, because no, I'm invested in this. I'm interested in this. But anyways, back to the whole jealousy thing. Next time you start to feel jealous of a shorter girl, just know that the shorter girl may actually be jealous of you. No t no shade to the shorter girls, of course, but people would absolutely love to have your height. Why would anyone not want to be taller? Our presence commands attention and respect. We can get on virtually any roller coaster we want to get on. It is easier for us to see at concerts. I mean like, being tall is great. So if you're feeling down about your height, I feel like a great exercise to do is ask yourself, what is your favorite part about being tall? For me is the fact that I can walk pretty fast. So if we need to rush to catch a train, our bus, or I simply need to run away from someone, I can do that easily as long as I don't trip over my own feat My main point here is jealousy is subjective if that makes sense. Does that make sense? I don't know. That requires a lot of thinking right now. But it reflects your values, what you find important, what you find attractive even and if you're feeling overly jealous of someone, it may be a sign that you need to do some reflection on that. Like, jealousy is a normal human emotion, we all feel it from time to time. Of course, like I said way back in this episode, everyone wants what they don't have. Everyone wants something that's better in their eyes. But if it's over consuming, if it's consuming way too much, then that's when it can get very, very unhealthy. I feel like a good way to combat jealousy is also to realize how much you have or be grateful of what you have. So in this case of height and being taller, at least, be grateful that you have a healthy body. Be grateful that you have life that could take you anywhere you can go. You have arms and hands that can reach for things, grab things for you. You have a body that is able to sustain you in your existence. Essentially, be grateful for that. All of the other stuff that's like oh like, oh the guys like her better, or oh like, she looks so much better in clothing, and this and that and the other. That's so secondary tertiary. Whatever comes after tertiary. Honestly, it should be way at the bottom of your priority list. I guess you could say. What I'm trying to say is your body can do so much for you. Be grateful that you have, because there are some people who don't have legs, don't have limbs, or are not able to walk, not able to run in things of that sort, and would absolutely love to have the body that you have. So just be grateful of what you have. So the answer to the question of our tall girls jealous of short girls, there are some out there that can do that. But I feel like at some point in time, we've all come to terms with the fact that our body is the way that it is, and we all start appreciating what we have, and we start appreciating our bodies and start accepting our bodies and loving our bodies. So for the most part, no, but there are some out there who are jealous of shorter girls, and that's okay, that's something we all have to work on from time to time. And it's that done overnight. But eventually we start coming to terms with the fact that we are tall women and we're beautiful, amazing creatures. I don't like the word creatures. We're beautiful, amazing people. Yes. Anyways, I'm gonna end the episode here. Thank you so so much for tuning in. I really appreciate it, and I appreciate you as always. Feel free to hit me up on my socials. Had a Tall Girls podcast on Instagram, TikTok and Pinterests. We could talk about how we're I was gonna say how we're jealous of short women. We're not. I'm speaking that into existence. We're not jealous of shorter women. We love all bodies. But we can just talk about anything. We could chat about whatever about life. If you have any networking advice for me, I would absolutely love to hear some of that. I need to get up on that. I'm about to graduate in three months. Girl, girl, my birthday is coming up. My birthday is in April. It's almost March. Oh my gosh. Time is flying by fast. Anyways, I don't want to think about this right now. I'm gonna go before I start thinking way too much about this. But yeah, thank you for tuning in all the way up to this point, and I'll catch you in the next one. Good night and goodbye.
