Just because we have lots of #tallgirlprobs doesn't mean we can't celebrate the perks too! You've read about the struggles in other articles, but here's some positivity about being tall!

1. You don't have to stand on a chair to see into cabinets or tall shelves.

You can reach it yourself, thank you very much.

2. You don't feel the need to wear heels to be taller.

You wear heels if you're feeling it, not because you feel "too short" without them. You cannot even fathom what it would be like to think you were "too short."

3. You get to sit in the front seat more

People cannot avoid that your legs are longer and you will be a much better fit for riding shotgun or driving than getting crammed in the backseat on a road trip.

4. Dresses and pants are NEVER too long for you

For all those girls who have to find the perfect heel height for their clothes or take them to be hemmed, may you rest in peace. In the meantime, I'll enjoy the length on my size extra long jeans.

5. You can always see over everyone in a crowd

No need for tip toes or getting on anyone's shoulders for you!

Dialogue: "Wow that's so sweet of you, but no. Definitely not me."

7. Your tallness comes in handy when you play sports.

Don't be ashamed of your height because it can help you do great things!

8. Countless people wish they had your height.

Own your tall figure and wear whatever kind of shoes you want!

9. Nobody can borrow your shoes because their feet are too small for them.

Don't even think about saying that your bigger feet are to blame for this problem. Small feet on a tall girl would be weird, anyway.

10. Your tallness doesn't define you, you define you.

Just be yourself and feel comfortable with however tall the good Lord made you!

Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
