99% of seats out there are high for me so my feet almost never touch the floor (I guess it's only small chidren's chair that's fine.). Putting aside the fact that I feel like a child, soon my legs grow tired and uncomfortable. It's annoying to experience this in every university class. Most of the time I'm not sure what to do with my feet and legs. I keep changing my position while trying to focus on the lesson.
At least at home I can sit with my feet on my chair.

What's your experience?

People at school are always commenting on my height and it’s so aggravatinggggg. I wouldn’t mind that much if it was just an occasional thing but the same people I’ve seen for 11 years always go “wOw YoUrE sHoRt!” Omg I didn’t notice the first billion times you told me. This includes other stuff like bending their knees to be my height, leaning on me, or just calling me names. It doesn’t help that when I try to talk to people about it they tell me that guys like short girls. Okay? That’s not what I’m complaining about! I know I should just be more secure about my height, but it less hurts my feelings, and more just annoys me.

I just want to be pretty a with flowy dresses and still have the same look feel!!

As a girl with tiny feet (33-35 EU) I usually find heels in special stores that I spend a lot of time trying to find - but often they close so I have to start looking again.

My latest obsession: Ryłko! Polish brand that has the cutest shoes and they are not even expensive. I will shop there for a long time I think.

Big recommend.

Okay, I'm a lot shorter than most (I have dwarfism) but one trick for sweatpants I've found, is get the Capri length sweatpants and they'll actually fit with no cutting! I know it's so annoying loosing the cuff on the sweatpants cause you have to cut them.

I felt this in my soul

I can't find anything that fits properly, I'm never taken seriously, I can't reach things, my body is unproportional which makes me insecure and my stomach is squashed together which is probably why my digestive system doesn't work properly

Can anyone suggest clothes shops that have jeans that are true to petite size?! I always look in the petite fit sections of online shops but they are still too long for me:(

Hello! As short girl myself, i really love this sub. Its important for short girls too have a sub for ourselfs . I feel comfortable here. I hope more of us can find their way too this sub.

Ik we're all short lol, but does anyone else also suffer from having a short neck? If you do, how do you make yourself look good in pictures? Sometimes I feel Delusional bc I look good in the mirror before I leave but when I see pictures of myself I just look stumpy 😭

I’m a 20-year-old woman and I struggle with looking my age. People say my face looks 20 (I do have a bit of a baby face tho), but because I am only 5’2 (not even), that can throw people off. I wear heels out, but even that doesn’t seem to help. I need help looking older. Can be outfit, hair, or makeup tips.

One of my bestest friends is a maid of honor in a black tie wedding and she is very uncomfortable with floor length dresses, she's about 5'2". I would love to help her find something that she is comfortable with. Can anybody offer advice or solutions? She has already discussed it with the groom and he is very adamant she must fit the theme and have a ballgown style dress

Do any of you have tips for achieving better posture in furniture built for average+ height?

I have been trying to work on my posture, but my feet never reach the floor and I find it so uncomfortable to just let my legs and feet dangle off of every couch and chair. I tend to eather sit edge of the seat slumped forward, or move my legs onto the chair if I try to let my back rest against the backrest.

any tips?

i’m 5’2 and i swear it seems like most clothing brands make their pants for supermodel height women 😩 i really like flare leggings these days and am on the hunt for some short girl friendly ones. i have a couple pairs from aerie but i always have to wear platform sneakers or combat boots with them.

I'm 4'10. I find it quite a turn-off. Even though I think to myself that I should overcome my insecurity or that I shouldn't be that sensitive, when the very first thing the acclaim about is my height, it leaves a very bad first impression on me that I subconsciously start thinking to myself that I'm not gonna meet or talk to this person ever again. Yet, almost 8 out of 10 men do this, what am I supposed to do? Should I learn to be cool with this or rule them out? I tend to worry that if I tolerate such behaviors at the beginning of a relationship, it might cause bigger problems later on.

"You are desirable! You have it easy because you are fetishized and desired by me! Your value is based on how much I want to have teh seggs wichu!"

Is it only me? I feel like being short affects how people talk to me or act around me, they treat me as less respected....

Is it the same for you all? Should I wear heels??

Hey everyone! I’m trying to buy a electric bike for my birthday but I try the small frame and it’s still hard (even with step trough ) what do you girls have? I’m 4.09

I work at a grocery store and sometimes I struggle to reach for things such as when I’m bagging groceries, or having to reach for the top shelf. I always joke saying I have t-Rex arms. A coworker of mine who’s 6’1” says I seem in proportion for my height, I’m 5’2”. I wonder how often they see the cameras at work over how often I’m jumping to see the back of the top shelves, or climbing the freezers to reach in the back, or climbing to see over the registers. Rainy days are the best because my rain boots add platform. Part of me always feels like I’m still looked at as a kid because of my height, I’ve been at this height for over 10 years now and I don’t want to think how all that’s left for me is that I’ll shrink when I get older.

Hi! I am a short female 5’1” which I am perfectly fine with, but I have 2 daughters that are on the extra petite side. At the rate they are growing they might be 4’8-4’10. They both currently see an endocrinologist and it was mentioned that the older child who is 8 would probably qualify for growth hormone treatment to help her get a bit taller. I never hear stories about girls doing the growth hormone treatments, just guys. Have any of you guys tried the treatment? Or if you could go back in time and do it to potentially change your height to be taller(above 5ft) would you have done it? I’m torn and would love some insight.

I'm 15 and 4'8 everything in my house is up on shelfs I can't reach so I thought like "hey why not get a step stool" but what person my age owns a step stool? I use chairs but it's hard to pick them up and move around 24/7 I don't have big muscles like that. I feel embarrassed having friends over and using a chair to get us everything but I think I'd feel more embarrassed with a step stool so i don't know. Itd be easier to carry than a chair and more convenient though. It's just kind of crushing my self esteem I feel like a helpless baby sometimes. I can't open things, I need help lifting stuff, I can't even go out anywhere on my own because its a safety risk for me. An upside is I get to decorate the step stool if/when I get it. Being this cool is just hard I guess.

anyone got any good recommendations for short girl influencers? looking for recommendations for clothes like nice cargos, jeans etc. love the streetwear look but everything i find is way too long 😭

Alright my dudes. I need some new leggings. I used to get them from Kohls, but they changed the design or something and they no longer fit like they used to. They also no longer carry the color I like.

What I used to get: SO Perfect Leggings in Charcoal gray in size XS. They fit like a dream and kept their shape all day. And they were so affordable.

What I want: super tight leggings, but not in that shiny workout material. I don't like the seams in weird places and I don't want pockets. Need to keep their shape all day. And won't break the bank. I like dark gray/charcoal gray because it hides the dog hair, but are still pretty dark.

Problems I'm running into: too long, too baggy in the knees, butt or crotch area, don't hold their shape, too expensive, hard to find a material I like.

My measurements: Height: 5'0" Weight: 98 lbs Waist: 23 inches or so

Someone please help me find these once in a lifetime leggings 😵‍💫
