National Short Girl Appreciation Day

History of Short Girl Appreciation Day

It’s not always fun to be short when the cups are on the highest shelf of the tallest cupboard. You’re always at the top of the human pyramid, though, isn’t that amazing? When was the last time you smacked your head against a door frame? National Short Girl Appreciation Day was created to honour the petite women in our life and perhaps assist them in snagging an impossibly high object. But in other times and places, being a “short girl” has meant different things! A 5’2″ lady nowadays could be thought of as being on the short side, yet in the 1700s, tiny entrances showed that she would have been quite normal! By today’s standards, even typical males from the 12th through the 16th centuries would be seen as short. The standard female height today is 5’4″. Worldwide, cities, highways, and buildings are only growing larger, but small women are keeping up!

Women today are often taller than our predecessors were even 100 years ago. However, at just under 5 feet, women in Indonesia, Bolivia, and the Philippines are on the shorter end of the global average! This demonstrates how location-dependent terms like “short” exist. Short ladies have a major influence. Kim Kardashian and cosmetics mogul Emilia Clarke (Mother of Dragons!) are both only 5’2″. Lady Gaga measures 5’1″, but Olympic gymnast sensation Simone Biles is barely 4’8″. These women demonstrate that being short does not limit your success, whether it is onstage, on the Olympic podium, or anyplace else.
