Let's talk about tall girl fan pages! Lol, you're probably like 'what????????'Let's start with the basics: What Are Tall Girl Fan Pages?Tall girl fan pages are social media accounts that showcase and "celebrate" tall women—kinda. These accounts often feature images, videos, and stories of tall women, with height as the main point of attraction. While these pages might appear to provide a sense of community, they can also have a darker side, promoting objectification and unrealistic standards.These fan pages are prevalent across platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and even Flickr. Lol, do y'all remember Flickr? I'm telling you, when I was in middle school, Flickr was EVERYTHING. That and VSCO. If you weren't on those sites, you were not cool, lol.ANYWAYS, tall girl fan pages are scattered all over the Internet, and they tend to have a lot of common themes—primarily featuring extremely tall women. This often leads to the misconception that a woman has to be 6'4” and up to be considered tall. But that raises an important question: What is considered tall for a girl? In my opinion, it's not just limited to those who are 6'4” and taller.In this episode, I explore how tall girl fan pages can promote unrealistic standards of tall beauty and fuel unhealthy self-comparison. Also, what are these tall girl fan pages really for? Are they meant to support and celebrate tall women, or are they simply catering to the male gaze? I talk about this and more in the full episode!Subscribe to A Tall Girl's Newsletter: https://atallgirlspodcast.beehiiv.com/subscribeLet's stay connected: https://beacons.ai/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviewsLast week's episode - "Why The Internet Is A Scary Place for Tall Women": https://atallgirlspodcast.com/episode/why-the-internet-is-a-scary-place-for-tall-women

We had the pleasure of interviewing ROSIE over Zoom video!Singer-songwriter, ROSIE, recently released her new single “Someone You Once Had”. This will be off her upcoming sophomore EP “5 Songs for Healing”. ROSIE shares on “Someone You Once Had” that “Someone you once had is about finding self love in the face of heartbreak and loss. It's easy to search for self worth in someone else, but this song is about finding it within oneself." In addition, she notes on the writing process “The process of creating “Someone You Once Had” was both painful and cathartic at the same time, because it's about learning to love myself in the face of heartbreak, hardship and loss! It's easy to search for self-worth in someone else, but this song is about me finding it within myself for the first time, and finally feeling confident in who I am”.In other news, ROSIE will be starting her headlining tour called “The Healing Tour” starting this June. ABOUT ROSIE:What you see is what you get with 23-year-old singer-songwriter ROSIE— no filters, no Facetune, no VSCO, no makeup, no bullshit.
