About this listen

Sometimes, tall women are misgendered.

There are quite a few stories around this, ranging from being called ‘sir’ to literally being asked straight up ‘Are you a man?’

Now, why does this happen? Height = masculinity…to some people.

Because it’s a desirable physical trait associated with men.

Most people typically apologize and go about their lives normally when they find out that a tall cisgender woman is, in fact, a cisgender woman and not transgender, but not all interactions are that way. Yes, there are some arguments and maybe physical altercations going on.

In today’s episode, we’ll discuss the misgendering of tall women, where transphobia comes into play, and a few stories/experiences from tall women. Tune in for more!
