Always look up! Small women do not always have it easy (he) in life ...

Small women will definitely find themselves in these situations!

Every blessing is also a vice. That also applies to the height. Little women also have to listen to spells like "Are you sitting or standing?" And "How is the air down there?". The Overlaters: Those up there. The big ones.

Why it is often annoying to master everyday life as a small woman is shown in this list of 15 WORKED SITUATIONS, which only small women know:

1. Why is the sugar so high up? Only one thing can help: Climb onto the worktop or use a chair to help. If you live alone, you can make sure that often used things are stored in (for us) within reach. However, we have no influence on the libraries, supermarkets and kiosks, which always put exactly the top, what we need right now! There's only one thing that helps: daring to climb the shelves (and hope that no one watches you) or humbly ask for help again and again depend on others - absolutely stupid!

2. Perfect fitting pants? That's not there at all - at least not downstairs. We always have to roll them up - and you constantly read that rolled-up pants make us visually (even) shorter legs! Alternative: let shorten. Extra costs that do not apply to tall women.

3. The same goes for maxi dresses: they are sooooo beautiful - but a bit gray for little women . We would like to have a selection of ankle-length dresses in summer (without having to wear 20-centimeter high heels).

4. In the swimming pool we can hardly stand anywhere : Even the children's pool seems to be too deep for us. Annoying - and embarrassing when everyone else is relaxed in the water, while you can only keep afloat with floating movements.

5. We always have to look up to everyone! In the worst case, this ends up with neck pain. And that it would also be nice if others looked up to us, you do not have to mention here. Only a visit to the kindergarten helps to increase self-esteem :-)

6. Foot pain, foot pain, foot pain! We force ourselves more often in high, tight high heels, although ballerinas for a long night would be the better choice.

7. You always make contortions when smooching, when the friend is much taller: Stand on tiptoe, take advantage of it when he is sitting or hoping to lift us up with his strong arms. Relaxed kissing is different.

8. These car seats that you can not adjust in height - just horrible! Especially during the test drive or a rental car. What do the carmakers expect? That we always have a few seat cushions on reserve ?!

9. Concerts with standing room are definitely cooler than with seats - but only for tall people . We little ones see nothing (except we are in the first row). And even in one or the other movie theater you pray until the end, that no one sets in front of you!

10. On group photos, you look like you're standing in a hole - or the others on a pedestal. The fact is: Without high heels you usually fall out of the ordinary (and with high heels, you fall in front of or behind, kinks or runs bubbles).

11. Small women are more easily overlooked - that's so unfair!

12. You let your legs dangle on chairs - and definitely involuntarily! Since you can only hope for a floor-length tablecloth, so you can at least cover up ...

13. People do not take you seriously, nobody thinks we are dangerous, no one intimidates us - no matter how angry we are! That makes you even more upset.

14. In the bus and train one stands at the height of sweaty shoulders - just disgusting, especially in summer (when it's warm), in winter (when people are dressed too thickly) and in spring and autumn (because the weather then unpredictable and felt that 90 percent of people have misjudged the temperature).

15. You're sitting in front of class photos. At group presentations you are in front . And even though you did not want it. Noteworthy in this context: If you are somewhere where you want to see something, you usually stand - right: behind.

So that you do not go through the day disappointed, here is our counter, because as the saying goes, "I'm not small, but reduced to the best!" In addition, small people are known to wet in the rain later :-)

Here are 15 REASONS why we should be happy to be small:

1. We have enough legroom - in the plane, auditorium, cinema, theater ...

2. We look adorable in all shoes - and our filigree feet often find the right shoe: Most women have shoe size 38/39 - we 36/37 - so with the shoes!

3. We are often estimated younger - and they do not always have to be nerve-wracking ten or twenty years, which almost offend us, but also just five years - because you look 'somehow younger' than big people. Well then: Thank you for the flowers!

4th attic? No problem! And we also rarely meet our heads as big people. Less inches means less pain in the case :-)

5. We are the perfect dance partner - whatever the size ...

6. Even the middle seat on the car back bank elicits us a "That's comfortable here!"

7. You can hide behind big people - great thing, if you cross the ex times ...

8. "There you will be helped!" - and that's because you're so 'cute little'. Strangers quickly declare their willingness to topple something off the shelf, and that's when they get into a nonsense (that's how a conversation can easily be artificially brought about).

9. In men, small women instill the protective instinct - and directly have more men to choose from - after all, just about every guy is taller than himself. And: An elite partner study of 7, 000 singles has shown that most men rely on women stand below 1.70 meters. Maybe not an additional reason why so many men stand on Kylie Minogue (1.53m), Eva Longoria (1.57m) and Shakira (1.57m). Whether that also played a role in Wladimir Klitschko when he decided for Hayden Panettiere (1.53m)?

10. We can always wear updos and ponytails without being bigger than the partner! The same goes for high heels, as Sarah Jessica Parker (1.59m), Reese Witherspoon (1.56m) or daring Lady Gaga (1.55m) like to demonstrate. By the way, of course, a perfectly legitimate reason to chew on a new pair of (high) shoes! :-)

11. In the supermarket, the cheapest things are always in the bottom shelf - as made for us! Then come here with the bargains :-)

12. Little women are less likely to have back pains - they just have to bend down less often - and even children reach our eye level years earlier :-)

13. Clothes that are too long can be shortened - an extension is already more difficult - but not our problem :-P

14. We fit in every little bed and the blankets are never too short - so we automatically prevent cold feet (at least at night ...)!

15. Small women often have a strong character - just because they are rarely taken seriously and must prevail more often! The stressful (re) fight for something helps us in many life situations and must be learned!
