Unapologetically Pink


Size matters

I am devastated.

The Observer on Sunday tells me that my height of five feet and seven inches is – bang on – average. Yes, women today are typically between 5′ 5″ and 5′ 9″ tall. So not only am I average, but I’m the average-est average, right in the middle.

What a blow. I thought I was tall! Perhaps it’s because I used to be. Has this pink lady gone cuckoo, I hear you ask? Not quite. I’ve been this height since I was eleven, so people always called me that. Then, it seems, the other b*ggers decided to grow tall too.

Maybe that’s it. We’re not all average: no, we’re just all tall.

P.S. Perhaps the more devastating news is that the average man is only 5′ 5″-5′ 11″. Ruined my tea break, anyway.
