My youngest daughter (who's 7) is tiny even by Chinese standards and just last night she was lamenting being so small in our family of giants. It's good to read your perspective; it'll help me be more understanding of her feelings. I’m so happy to have found this.

At 5' 3" I'm taller than all three of them. One is 5' even and the other two are 5' 2", so I wonder why they're shorter than me. I see no reason why short women can't be considered beautiful and elegant or anything else. It's how you feel inside and how you carry yourself that's important. You look like a model in that photo!  You’d fit right in with my daughters. At 5′ 3″ I’m taller than all three of them.

Although I am reconciled to my height (still working on the weight), I tend to create women characters more in the mode of my ideal. That way I can live vicariously through them.
