6 advantages of short girls that they are not aware of

What are the disadvantages

Short stature, like tall stature, has no disadvantages. There are some features that you can easily and easily adapt to.

For example, to get something from the top shelf in a store, you will have to turn to someone around you for help. To kiss your boyfriend, every now and then you have to stand on your toes.

There are situations when you are sitting on the sofa and your feet do not reach the floor. This certainly causes some inconvenience. And the problem with clothes arises all the time: bought jeans, long skirts need to be shortened.

The need to remove snow from the roof of a car in winter can also become a problem.

These are not all the difficulties that await owners of short stature. Yes, they make life harder, but is it really that bad?

Who should be higher

However, quite a few men are quite traditional when it comes to whether their partner’s height should be greater than their own. As a rule, they prefer the girl in heels to be no taller than them, but perhaps the same height. Differences of a few cm are welcome. Often men additionally note that if the difference in height with a girl is not very great, it is convenient: you can kiss without bending over.

It also happens that short men prefer tall women, and they reciprocate their feelings. It just so happens that some people find their ideal in the complete opposite. Although not always. Also, very tall men sometimes choose extremely petite women as partners. But this does not always happen.

Drama based on classics2

Fortunately, when partners first meet, the first thing they do is not rush to measure each other with a ruler. Feelings, common interests and views can also appear in a completely “out of proportion” couple. And then both partners begin to worry about the possibility of their relationship.

And for some reason, at such moments, no one looks around and notices that such couples are not at all uncommon. And if you look at TV screens, even media personalities and stars choose tall girls as wives. Perhaps someday “ordinary people” will begin to follow the example of the stars and will look not at their partner’s height, but at other qualities.

Most often, such couples do not maintain relationships precisely because of social stereotypes. Both men and girls have generally accepted norms in their heads, poisoning their supposedly “non-standard relationships.”

What do you need to do to become taller?

The average height of a woman in Russia is not that important. Sometimes girls try not only to look visually taller, but to actually add a few cm to themselves.

You can do this in the following ways:

• surgical intervention. There is a technique in which the shin bone is artificially broken, the cartilage and bone joints are stretched, adding a few cm to the height. Of course, this is an extreme case for legitimate situations;
• ride a bicycle with the seat adjusted so that your legs reach slightly towards the pedals;
• hang on the horizontal bar daily, increasing the time;

• do the “birch tree” exercise (stand on the shoulder joints with straight legs raised high);
• jump rope;
• swim regularly and a lot.

In addition to all these exercises, it is necessary to remember that growth has a genetic component, and it is unlikely that it will be possible to change its main tendencies. But it is quite possible to correct it by adding 1-2 cm.

It is also important to remember the following points:

• sleep at least 7-8 hours daily (growth hormone is released during sleep);
• nutritious nutrition, rich in proteins and microelements;
• taking balanced vitamin complexes;
• outdoor activities;
• rejection of bad habits.

Height is a value that depends on many factors. Average values ​​for Russia among women and men may differ depending on the region and climatic conditions. To guess how tall a person will be, it is necessary to take into account all the components.

Reasons for preference among men4

Men also have a psychological aspect when choosing a soul mate. Small women seem fragile and sweet, and accordingly, a subconscious desire awakens to not let the girl be offended and to take her under your wing. Actually, the reasons are directly opposite to those of women. Men like to feel more powerful.

There is one interesting fact: tall girls are considered ice queens and fatal beauties who love to break men's hearts. In fact, most men cannot overcome the fear of being rejected by a tall woman. That is why it seems that it is easier to find a common language with short representatives of the fairer sex.

Outerwear

The length of the outerwear is also ideal, just above the knee. Moderate oversize for a coat is acceptable, but still a semi-fitting cut makes you a little taller.

Ideal coat length
Midi length plus oversized - for short ladies this is already a risky option for outerwear. A very high heel plus open narrow parts of the body will help out: ankles, neck, wrists. And brightly painted eyes, so that the gaze of the beholder is concentrated on the face, and not on the length of the legs.

A long coat is a riskier option for outerwear for short people.

Women

Every woman often faces a choice: shoes with or without heels? Often, the fair half is inclined in favor of the first. Heels are not only beautiful, fashionable and elegant. This is an objective opportunity to add a couple of extra centimeters to your height.

Fashion dictates its own rules: being slim and tall is clearly in trend. And the body parameters, the reference 90-60-90 for girls, are familiar to everyone. With the question “what height is considered ideal?” the situation is clearly more complicated. Some girls, hiding possible figure flaws, visually increase their height and select appropriate clothes and shoes. Others have a complex because of their “height” and worry, obviously standing out in the company of friends.

So, to the research of the California Institute (women):

• ideal height for a woman should not exceed 173 cm;
• Moreover, women, in most cases, prefer partners 20 cm taller.

This is how it turns out that according to women, their partner should be superior in height. The option when a shorter man somewhat confuses the fair half, does not look aesthetically pleasing and is even upsetting, because in this case you will have to forget about stilettos forever.

Width of trousers and jeans

Skinny jeans are already quite boring and are now on the fashion fringes. But not for short women. Once the winning leg parts are hidden in baggy jeans, the entire figure becomes massive, boxy and low.

The width of the trouser legs matters for the proportions of the figure.
In skinny jeans, height is visually higher. Therefore, skinny trousers and jeans remain the most preferable for petite ladies. With reservations regarding the width of the hips and knees, of course. At 45-50, these may not be skinnies that cut into the hips, but tapered models that softly outline the figure.

In this image the proportions of the figure are almost ideal

Too different heights and sex3

In bed, couples with a large difference in centimeters can expect problems. Especially if the participants in the process are not distinguished by their wild imagination and liberation. You can avoid this with simple tricks.

• Foreplay from a sitting position

Kisses and caresses while standing will become tiresome: the “lucky” one with short stature will have a stiff neck, and his partner will have a back ache. Girls can sit on a guy’s lap, this technique will “kill two birds with one stone” - it will excite the guy even more and brighten up the uncomfortable difference. It is better for young people to sit next to their partner, hugging her.

• Choose the right poses

Positions where partners have almost the same body position (standing, missionary) may be uncomfortable. When a tall man is on top, a girl can literally “breathe into his navel,” which is unlikely to please her. Unless, of course, she's a fan of chest hair. In a standing position, she will have to stand on her toes (or squat slightly), which will not add to the pleasure of the process. What can we say about position 69?

For couples with height differences (of any variation), the ideal position is cowgirl. Doggy style on the bed will also work. In extreme cases, you can place a pillow under your knees for maximum comfort. You can also pay attention to the pose against the wall, when the girl wraps her legs around her partner’s waist. The small “dimensions” of the fair sex will not let the guy get tired.

Beliefs that can become a hindrance3

• The comical appearance of such a couple. When they see a tall girl and a short man, most people will smile indulgently or openly sympathize with the man, although such sympathy is clearly in vain. A man's inner confidence will allow him to feel free and courageous around any woman. And it doesn’t matter how tall she is
• Dissatisfaction of relatives and friends. When meeting a family, both partners may experience family disagreements and misunderstandings. But a man and a woman will need to build family happiness themselves, without regard to the family in which each of them grew up.
• A man's insecurity. The one that can arise as a result of chuckles and sidelong glances. But as mentioned above, a real confident man radiates calmness and masculinity under any circumstances. It is enough to look at celebrities who are not tall, but when they see them, no one will think that such a man is not sure of something. Robert Downey Jr., Tom Cruise, Daniel Radcliffe - these actors are favorites. And even more so for the female audience. What woman would refuse such charismatic handsome men, given their small stature?

Print

The preferred print design for petite ladies is medium-sized, or even better, small. A medium-sized print can be used in images, only away from the portrait area, for example, for skirts. This is provided that the size of the lower part of the figure does not look larger in a printed skirt. The length of dresses should preferably be the same as skirts, ending at the knee. If your figure allows, then the cut of the dress should be quite tight. If you have a protruding belly and sides, choose a looser cut of dresses, but without oversize.

For petites - a small print pattern and a close-fitting cut.
In clothes with a large area with a large contrasting print, a woman of small stature will simply get lost and become visually shorter. The clothes will attract all the attention.

Plain dresses of the right length are the most advantageous option for short women. The top and bottom of the same color visually adds a couple of centimeters of height. If the condition of your knees does not allow them to open, choose a length just above the knee.

Plain colored clothing is preferred

Interesting facts about growth6

In order not to create complexes in people of non-standard size, we can provide several surprising facts about the size of the human body:

• The inhabitants of the African continent are considered the tallest. The Sari tribe has an average male height of 182 cm.
• In contrast to the tall Africans, on the border between Peru and Brazil, a tribe of the shortest stature was discovered; none of its inhabitants could boast of 106 cm in height. There are rumors about the stunted Onge tribe (Andaman Islands), but today there are practically no representatives of it left.
• The shortest man on Earth is a resident of the village of Rimholi Chandra Bahadur Dangi. The Nepalese reaches 56 cm.
• Pauline Masters is recognized as the shortest woman in history. At 9 years old she weighed 15 kg and was 55 cm tall.
• The Swedish crown bearer Gustav Adolf maintained a regiment of dwarfs in the royal army. The purpose of this regiment is unknown.
• Robert Pershin is a man who during his lifetime was 2.72 m tall and weighed more than 200 kg. This is the largest recorded person in history.

• In conditions of complete weightlessness, the height of astronauts increases by 4-8 cm. In the absence of gravity, the spine loses its useful load and, accordingly, its strength, which is dangerous. Upon return, this indicator returns to normal.
• During the day, a person’s height shows changes of 2 cm. When waking up, the vertebral discs have a normal distance from each other; if you spend the day in an upright position, by the evening they will settle.

Reasons for preference among girls3

Even without paying attention to the research, many have repeatedly heard the girl say that she prefers tall partners. On the one hand, this is imposed by the media and television, in which the main characters are demonstrated as tall, brutal winners of everything and everyone. On the other hand, it is worth studying the psychological aspect of this fact:

• A tall partner inspires a feeling of security and calm. For the weaker sex, he is seen as a self-confident and reliable companion, capable of protecting him from any adversity and problems.
• Tall guys are often judged to be stronger and more independent (even if this is far from true).
• A tall person has a calm and non-conflict character, which is a feature of the central nervous system. The ladies feel it.
• People who are tall are smarter than their shorter peers. Despite the wide spread of this statement, this fact is not supported by anything special.

To understand why girls subconsciously consider tall guys more preferable, it is necessary to turn to genetic memory, the roots of which go deep into evolution:

• Tall men have longer limbs, which affects running speed, endurance and fighting qualities. In the past, the survival of the entire tribe depended on the success of the hunter. Even then, women tried to choose the strongest warrior as their life partner.
• From time immemorial, people of different tribes mistook great height for good genetics.

The current picture is that the mind has become a much more valuable human resource than physical strength. But genetic memory is not easy to deceive.

It must be remembered that psychology can play a cruel joke on a girl. Relying on her own feelings and putting on rose-colored glasses, she may not see the possible immaturity of her partner. To succeed in the realities of modern society, it is not enough to be able to throw a hypothetical javelin the farthest, or run the fastest.

An independent man with communication skills, who knows how to find a way out of the most difficult situations, and who shows respect for a girl will be a better choice than a guy who is 190+ cm.

How old does a girl grow?

It is not difficult to guess what the height of a newborn child will be. However, all known formulas for calculating this parameter are approximate.

How different is the average height of women in Russia from other countries?

Growth depends on:

• genetic predisposition. Most often, tall parents give birth to tall children. On the contrary, short people have minimal chances of giving birth to a child with an overestimated value of the indicator;
• human hormonal background. Hormones responsible for the growth of bone and muscle tissue must be produced normally. Disruption of certain organs will inevitably lead to growth retardation;
• general physical condition. For a normal growth process, it is necessary that a person is healthy and resilient, does not suffer from physical and emotional exhaustion and does not have chronic diseases;
• psycho-emotional stability. The atmosphere in the family, relationships with peers, communication difficulties also affect the growth process;
• human nutrition. Numerous studies have shown that some foods stunt growth, while others stimulate and activate it. The emphasis should be on protein (meat, fish, eggs, cottage cheese), limit the consumption of sweets and fast food;
• habitats. It is a scientifically proven fact: residents of warm countries have an average height lower than residents of harsh latitudes. This is explained by the fact that excessive solar activity inhibits growth processes.

It is believed that the peak of activity in the growth processes of female representatives occurs at 11 years of age. It is up to this age that they continue to actively gain cm annually. From 11 to 18 years the rate slows down, but growth continues to increase.

The process is considered finally completed at the age of 18-19. Age-related changes that overtake women by the age of 60 lead to a significant reduction in height (3-5 cm).

Didn't agree on height

If you like a person who is much taller or shorter than you, do not rush to get upset. It is quite possible that he reciprocates your feelings, because there are much more important parameters by which people choose their partners.

Girls can still be advised to take their height for granted. Short people are not prohibited from wearing flat shoes, and tall people are not allowed to wear heels. There is no need to be ashamed of your height, it looks completely stupid. Rather, you should be embarrassed that you are embarrassed by your height!

It turns out that there is no simple and clear answer to the question of what height men like girls more. But it is absolutely known that they like sexy and attractive girls. But is that bad?

Historical figures7
