History of Petite And Proud Day
Petite is a term used to describe people about or under 5’4”. Petiteness, for some, can be seen as a place of insecurity. People can make discriminatory comments about height, leading to a lack of self-confidence and jealousy of those taller than them.
What is considered an acceptable height and the way people view height has been a topic of conversation for generations. This was first observed with the term Napoleon Complex when newspapers during the 1800s mocked Napoleon for his height.
Height has been used as a measure of social status and fitness. When determining the potential of a person, height can contribute to power, intelligence, and strength.
Petiteness is even used as a way to determine who to date! Men who prefer short women tend to say that they believe they are more nurturing, homely, and considerate all because of their height!
On the other hand, women can judge shorter men as less attractive and unable to be fitting partners. Petite and Proud Day is dedicated to celebrating people for their potential, not their height.
