I'm a graphic designer and illustrator. I started my comic blog Tall N Curly back in 2012 to share my tall girl problems. Do you remember my previously posted funny comics about "25 Problems I Face When Being A Tall And Curly-Haired Girl" here on Bored Panda?
I wanted to create some space in my life for something creative that had nothing to do with my work. By doing so, I realized I was telling the everyday problems of so many other women. Women, who, just like me, want and need to be reminded that it's OK, fun and even special to be different and to own who they are.
Since I started my webcomic series, I've had the opportunity to talk with so many amazing women who shared their girl problems with me. Whether they're tall, short, skinny, curvy, their stories about living their life and not being able to fit any mold inspire my cute drawings every day.
Thanks to them, I never lack inspiration or have to try hard making these relatable comics... There's always something new to tell!

Dilly Millandry 6 years ago
Just did some reading up on this and here are the averages of a few countries (accepting that there will always be anomolies); for a woman raised in the United States the average height is currently 5ft 4in. In UK it is 5ft 3in, in India it is 5ft, in Belgium it's just over 5 ft 4in and the same for the Netherlands. Latvian women are tallest being on average 5 ft 5.7in. (so nearly 5ft 6in). Being 5 inches taller than most countries 'average' is pretty much going to be considered tall rather than short. I'm sure that some studies probably produce variations on these heights but I doubt that there is much difference overall.

I used to be tall. I was 5'11 and wore 5 inch heels sometimes. I can relate to all of these comics. Because of back problems and such, I have lost 3 inches and am now 5'8". I still feel kind of tall. My hubby is 5'10" and now he loves it when I stand next to him and he is the taller one. I miss my 3 inches even tho' it was a pain in the a*s at times and finding clothes to fit was next to impossible.

I've lost height due to my back problems as well. Painful and frustrating, isn't it? Was horrified the first time I was measured at the doctors and so really struggled to get as tall as possible the next time - made no difference.

I think that in the image # 28, in which you put a boyfriend lower than you going down the street, you behave and ridicule him in the same way as those who judge you. You say that you do not want them to notice you and you worry about what they think about you, in that situation.

I LOVE these comics and can relate to all of them. I'm 6'. My boyfriend is 5'10" (which is my cut-off). The clothes... the mirrors... the showers... Yup, been there. How about creating a comic of a photo of you with your normal sized friends? I love my height, but when I see pictures of me and my friends, I feel like either an Amazon, or I'm surrounded by children. ha! Or how about a comic of being mistaken for a man? Has that happened?? I'm very obviously a woman (features, hair, feminine body), but NUMEROUS times over the years (especially in winter with big coat and hair covered, I've had people initially mistake me for a dude. "May I help you, sir?" in Home Depot, for example. Then I turn around to see their mortified face. ugh. And why do cute shoes tend to stop at size 10!?!? I'm 6' tall and size 11, and I'm sure lots of super models are up there with me. Then why is it so hard to find cute shoes!?!? I just saw the Broadway show "Kinky Boots" and found myself sighing.

Criticisms: 1) I think you are making a bigger problem out of a smaller one. 2) Using the same drawing, several times in a row, just changing the speech bubble, doesn't make for an interesting read, it also highlights and makes the next criticism more apparant: 3) You only have one joke, a whole comic series dedicated to one joke gets old, fast, which is a problem when: 4) This isn't very funny. Relatable humour is a difficult thing to make funny, and I have to say here it fails, in every way. Pros: The art's pretty good, although a little crude in places.

Some were definitely on point, but many were just weird. If the girl is over 6ft though, as I am only 5"10 there would be an even bigger gap, but I got all the up there jokes etc and the feet being boats etc. I did ride horses though, do not see how a tall gangly girl would be more cumbersome to a horse than a grown man. I also found all the 'at a friends house' ones so weird, again the friend is not building the kitchen lower, it would be standard counters etc, so the same issues in all houses including their own. On the good sides though... In the 80's never got asked for ID to go into clubs or pubs when underage because TALL! Get asked by people in supermarkets if I can reach something for them, which I am always happy to do, because it would really suck to not be able to especially for the elderly. I have become very good at picking things up with my toes and bringing them up to my hand, who wants to bend down that low to grab the lid to a pen :P

Asking someone to do a favour for you, just because you can reach it is not obnoxious or rude. If you treat it as such, you are the one, in fact being rude and obnoxious.

Some were definitely on point, but many were just weird. If the girl is over 6ft though, as I am only 5"10 there would be an even bigger gap, but I got all the up there jokes etc and the feet being boats etc. I did ride horses though, do not see how a tall gangly girl would be more cumbersome to a horse than a grown man. I also found all the 'at a friends house' ones so weird, again the friend is not building the kitchen lower, it would be standard counters etc, so the same issues in all houses including their own. On the good sides though... In the 80's never got asked for ID to go into clubs or pubs when underage because TALL! Get asked by people in supermarkets if I can reach something for them, which I am always happy to do, because it would really suck to not be able to especially for the elderly. I have become very good at picking things up with my toes and bringing them up to my hand, who wants to bend down that low to grab the lid to a pen :P

I'm 177cm, not really tall, and still have problems finding clothes especially pants.

I'm exactly the same height as you, and it never comes up in conversation or anything. Am I missing something??

Ok, I like this because I can share my experience. My friend, or more so: SUPER MEGA BEST FRIEND FOR LIFE is only 4'9? I think... And i'm 5'3 or 4, and every single time, I swear. I have to get the cookies for her.

Sounds like all the mouthy little people with the 'smart' cracks shouldn't be so hung up on height, Bill.

the problem with height is that your either too short or too tall. People rarely have the perfect height. why does Mother Nature do this to us.
