Ask Rachael
I'm too tall!

Dear Taller Than Most,

I have two uncles who are 6' 5" and are seeing women within 5' 5" and 5' 8" and I think they look ridiculous, particularly on the dance floor.

Tall boys need a girl of your height. Many women would give their right arm to have the long legs of a girl your height.

Maybe you need to look for ways of dressing that accentuate your long legs and be proud of your height. Indeed, many famous catwalk models are your height, including Naomi Campbell.

With respect to the constant questioning about sports, reply with something that will get people to stop asking.

For example, "Just because I am tall does not mean I play sports," or "I do not want to spend my life looking up at a basket."

Good luck and keep me posted.

Rachael
