im pretty short myself but i looked into it for a friend who was 6'2 and i had to be like, girl, you arent going to some place in rural brazil to have one of the highest complication surgeries of all time. it isnt unlikely for it to consign you to a wheelchair forever
whereas these days vaginoplasty, facial surgery, and breast aug are all straightforward and relatively routine at this point
I would totally get a surgery to make me shorter if it wasn't expensive and extremely sketchy. I'm just tall enough that I stick out, which is really not what I want.
It's occurring to me that filming these was probably a pretty bizarre experience for Ava Michelle who plays the main character, simply because her height (and therefore her character's height) is so central to the plot; I feel like most movies (especially ones that are works of fiction) don't situate an actor so closely to their role if you get what I'm trying to say
Edit: To clarify somewhat, consider how even method actors are most often up ultimately unable to live the experiences of their characters in a practical sense. But this movie is about being a tall teenage girl, which Michelle obviously experienced herself on a daily basis, until very recently, for half her life.
I wonder what these people think about gender affirmation surgery.
Woulld be interesting. I've not yet heard anyone say they want to be shorter to be more feminine, but its a possibility.

Wasn't there that ridiculous Netflix show called Tall Girl? Central premise was that main character was tall and a girl and that made her life hard.
It was a movie (that also has a sequel lol)

Its just transwomen looking for that tbh, never forget tall women are hotter though :flag-lesbian-pride:
I've heard it a lot from transwomen. I haven't heard it from cis women.
