Recently, the press began to focus on Juliana Yamasaki’s height difference. Whether or not this was simply to be a fashion statement or otherwise, her fans have taken to Twitter to express their opinions. Some of the responses have been negative, while others have been supportive, including “Well whatever, I like your personality. “;” @benbodeker: What does it mean? “;”@benbodeker: It’s part of who you are, bud.”
One thing the public seems to agree on, is that the height difference can cause problems in a relationship. One common issue raised by women in relationships with tall men is that their partner feels intimidated by them and may even be fearful of standing up taller. Tall men may use their height to intimidate women who stand under them in stature. Even though Juliana Yamasaki has been applauded for her height difference, the reactions to it seem to indicate that many are not so pleased.
