    Tall Girl Stereotypes episode: Are Tall Women Too Masculine? | The Truth About Tall Girl Stereotypes -- https://www.spreaker.com/episode/are-tall-women-too-masculine-the-truth-about-tall-girl-stereotypes--61316039

    Today we’re talking about being tall AND black (especially darker-skinned) as a woman. This topic has been brought up in my DMs and my comments over the past few days. I did plan on speaking about this topic at a later time; however, because of the recent requests, I just took this as a sign to do this now.

    Just a few quick disclaimers that are bulleted:
    • I identify as Black and I am mostly black genetically. While I am mixed, I am most in touch with my Black side so I do say I am Black.
    • While I do face some of the struggles of being a Black woman, I do acknowledge that colorism exists. If you didn’t know, I am a light-skinned woman. I am light with light-colored eyes, so I am aware that there are times when I’m treated differently because of how I look.
    • This episode will discuss slavery. If this is a sensitive topic for you, DO NOT tune in to this episode. Protect your peace babes.

    “Being tall and Black isn’t for the weak.” “People give so much hate to tall, dark-skinned girls.” These are some of the comments and messages I’ve received over the past few days. And now’s the time to address them.

    The way that people act towards us is largely due to the stereotypes given to both Black women AND tall women. What are these stereotypes? And how does it affect how people see tall, Black women? Tune in to the full episode to find out!
