The Hidden Cost of Being Feminine as a Tall Woman | Why Tall Women Struggle With Femininity

I’ve spoken quite a few times on this podcast about how tall women are masculinized. 

It can look like people saying they feel “so small” around you. Always asking you to carry the heavy stuff because you’re “big and strong”. Being told you’re intimidating or scary. Misgendering even. 

There are many examples of this actually happening to us, but not really the other side of things: us internalizing this and finding it weird or awkward to portray ourselves in a feminine way. 

This is a struggle that many of us tall women face. 

So we’re gonna talk a little bit about this in today’s episode and even take it a step further and talk about how when some tall women try to come across as/be feminine, they are “punished” for it. Tune in for more!
