    Yeah I've got a friend who's roughly 6'3 and people keep assuming she's trans just because she's weirdly tall

      Not to mention when she dares to date a guy shorter than her. People will obsess over that non-stop. Tall women really can't win, either.

          date a guy

          I think the gendered connotation of guy is important here

            Lol true - I was mostly responding to "tall women can't win" but my answer similarly applies for any sapphics :hexbear-bi-2:

              my point was not that, but that tall women can't date any guys because they will be judged if the man is shorter than them, and they will also face judgement for dating women because of homophobia. and if they date no one that's a problem too. I'm starting to sense a pattern society doesn't like women, but I need more evidence to be sure.

        This seems to be a thing that Anglo women fixate on. I see this sometimes but not nearly as often in Latin countries. All the women I've dated have been taller and nobody really cared. We tend to judge more on interracial couples, particularly if you happen to date an indigenous man or woman.
