10 Things Petite Girls Are Tired of Hearing

In This Article:

As someone who is 4'11 there are certain questions I hear a lot from friends or even strangers. When we're out shopping, when we're hanging out, or even just walking around. So for everyone wondering yes I know i'm short, please don't ask me how much I weight or my height. Here are a few things I've compiled that people have said to me.

Yes I know I'm short and you can also see I'm short. Why does my height matter and why do you need to ask?

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "What size do you wear? You're so tiny. I bet you can wear kids clothes

Giphy

Yes I can wear kids clothes. While you're wearing a $150 Columbia jacket, I'm wearing the same one for $60 less.

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "Wow I thought I was short"

Giphy

Just because I'm shorter than you doesn't mean you're tall FYI

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "I was your height back in 6th grade" 

Giphy

Wow that's great! I bet you have average size parents, I don't!

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "How much do you weigh?!" 

Giphy

But if I asked you how much you weighed you'd be offended. So why is it okay if you ask me??

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "Can I pick you up?" 

Giphy

No you can't I'm a person not a doll thank you.

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "Can you sit in the middle?"

Giphy

Yeah sure I'd love to be squished in the middle.

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "Wait stand up I wanna see how much taller I am"

Giphy

Do the math, you're 5"7 so you're 8 inches taller, that's great why do you need me to stand up for that.

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'; min-height: 14.0px} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "I bet you can fit into that small space"

Giphy

Yeah I probably can, doesn't mean I want to nor will I.

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Helvetica Neue'} "Oh my god that 5th grader is as tall as you. I thought you were in their class for a second

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to.

Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
