I'm early 40s and finally thought the comments about height had stopped but been hit with it twice today!
At a Zoom team get together, where I was meeting my new colleagues for the first time today. They all introduced them self with an anecdote and my managers manager spoke negatively about how tiny Kylie was in person. 'Tiny Woman', Dwarf (or similar term) like Woman', 'like a tiny doll', which made him and his wife not bother having a photo with her. I know it was indirect but you'd never discuss other peoples physical attributes like this.
And my husband as we sat of the sofa describes how someone at our joint sports club asked who his wife was. Said my name and he came back with that he wouldn't have put us two together and wasn't I very small.
Is height really seen so negatively?
