I have to ask - what counts as "tall" for a trans girl (and a girl generally)? Is there a range or a consensus on what counts as tall?
Probably not. I used to be average for a man, but as a woman I'm definitely on the taller side. The bigger problem is that I often feel tall around women, even if I'm not that abnormal.
I always hear women wanting to date men over 6 feet (that's 1.8 meters, for the enlightened among us), so I've internalized that there is at least some kind of consensus or norm that men aren't tall unless they're over 6' tall. But I don't know whether men have a height preference for women, or that they would only date women who are X feet or shorter, for example.
I'm like you, average height for a man, but tall for a woman.
I moved somewhere that women are generally much taller and larger, so it has been nice being among "giants" like this - I feel like I just no longer exist in a social context where I am perceived as tall anymore 😄
but I still feel insecure about it - I wish I were much smaller all around
