Becky on being short

Hi guys!

For the first time in several months, I received a Shorty Story for my main site. The writer, 5'0" Becky, talks about being her height and how the world views her, as a petite woman. I'm sure that Shorty Stories readers have experienced the same thing, including people mistaking you for being younger, having trouble finding clothes, etc, etc...Below is an excerpt from Becky where she talks about people find her height funny, in a very insensitive way:

My Height = Comedy:

So many times, I've been picked on for being short. I dress young because that’s what fits. I'll never forget this: It was a cold snowy day and i bundled up with all the extras. I get on the bus to go to the mall, the bus driver asked me, "What happened, no school?", I told him, "no, I’m in college." He started laughing so hard that when I sat in the back of the bus, he was still laughing. I was so hurt that I was seen as a mere joke. I cant help myself that I'm small and look young. I'm glad that I'll look young when I get old but as of right now, I want to be taken seriously everywhere I go.
