I'm not afraid of heights, but when I'm in a high place, I panic because it always feels like someone is going to push me. - DD

Best thing happened today!!!

So I work part time as a shop assistant to earn extra money for college. Mostly I don't mind the looks I get from people being surprised at my height. However, this one male student with his friends came up to me and asked 'Whats the weather like up there .' He clearly said this to provoke my feelings and embarrass me, just like all men as they clearly are threatened by taller women. Instead of being intimidated I instead spat on his face and said 'It's raining.' The man was so embarrassed he walked straight away with all his friends laughing at him. A sweet old lady even congratulated me on what I did. So the lesson learned is whenever anyone says 'Whats the weather like up there?' they clearly need to be taught this is altophobic and so you should therefore spit on them and say 'it's raining' to teach them not to do this again.

Just a reminder...

Don't wear stilts-they're offensive to tall people and encourage oppression and altophobia. They also appropriate the natural look of People of Height. Think before you dress

Short Privilege is not having your legs squashed in planes and sustaining serious injuries by it

Last year during spring break, me and a few of the gals took a plane to New York. To put things in perspective, we're all on the plus-size height-wise, and not afraid to show it, going from 5'11 to me at a luscious 6'5. We've all had a few dirty looks in public before, and of course heard little children ask their parents why we're such "giants". But this time, it was worse: the level of altophobia was sickening.

It all started when, after an exhausting morning of queueing, I discovered that I simply could not fit into my seat: My legs were too long. I pressed the button for the flight attendant, who took could barely hide her laughter at me. I told her there was no way that my legs could fit in. She told there was nothing she could do so I was forced to endure the whole flight with my legs squashed. This severely hurt my knees and I was unable to do any physical activity for a whole week. Why should it be that only short people can sit comfortably on planes?

kivitih callenged me to share with you 10 facts about my persona ;) and tag fifteen followers of mine to do the same.

! The facts below are randomly chosen and may sound silly !

1. I laugh about EVERYTHING. Anything can amuse me. Thats why people consider me as a driveller. 2. I’m altophobic ( I have a phobia about heights) 3. I used to study Japanese on the Internet. 4. My pets are two diamond doves (you really shoud really google those buds, they’re very cute) 5. I am very interested in Psychology, Journalism and Asian coulture (mostly korean) 6. I love reading books! I bring a book with me everywhere I go. Since May I have read 18 books, half of which are in english. 7. I have that skill of learning languages easily and rapidly. 8. I ALWAYS analyze everything (e.g. I ask myself why do people smoke, or why did the lady in the tram act so strange etc.) and create those problems that don’t even exist. 9. I listen to Imagine Dragons and Arctic Monkeys. 10. I think I have a problem with socializing or somethink like that: I dont want people from my past (like classmates from my former class) to recognise me in public places. I get fidgety when staying in front of people who may laugh at me or think stuff about me.
