Diary Of A SixFoota....

   Today is the 2 month anniversary of my promotion page and boy am I excited about what's been goin on in my life!!! I was terrified to even start this journey because it meant I would be doin me and acknowledging my own dreams for a change... And now, 2 months and 200 likes later I'm jumping up and down about the future of DaSixFoota!!! I'm grateful for all the support and even more grateful for the helping hands along the way!!! When I tell ya'll that God declared greatness over my life, that's exactly what He did! It has only taken me a couple of months to accomplish a good 8 months worth of strides. Just think, if I've done this much in such a short time... where am I gonna be in 8 months!? It blows my mind!!! I'm a hair stylist by trade and always thought that was my talent and calling. I've been playing in hair for as long as I can remember.. I've also always been what my grandmother called a "social butterfly" .. never thought in a ...

That's my topic today! Growing up I never once thought that being tall meant I looked like a man. And if I recall correctly I was never compared to one until I became an adult. Now I haven't always looked at my height as a good thing but I never felt like a man or thought I looked like a man for that matter... There was this one time that the boyfriend of a friend said that I probably used to be a man. Now I was taken aback because what parts of me would lead anyone to believe that I, DaSixFoota, used to be a man???! Although I do know that none of this is true there are just some things that stick with you.... I do believe I was offended more than anything and then appalled by his ignorance! This happened some years ago and just when I thought I had crossed over into the area of grown men it happened again! By this time I think I was completely and utterly comfortable in my own tall skin and my reaction was quite different, I responded with a simpl...

My weekend was awesome!!! I rocked out with legends!! Once again I was a part of an event where we came to together to support and embrace each other as artist, brothers and sisters, friends, and family! The event I'm speaking on is the Core DJ conference... Oh how I love being a part of these events... I met a lot of really great people but the one that really stood out was one Miss Kendra Allure.. She's among the long legg crew.. Standing at a fabulous 6'1... We were coined the Twin Towers and we owned every room we walked into! Slowly but surly I am watching my brand grow into something great. I'm seeing and interacting with more and more long leggs and they are as excited I am.. I gotta tell ya'll I stepped way outta my comfort zone to do this, couldn't be more elated that I did!!! When I look back and think of the price I've paid for not doin this sooner I really could kick myself!!! Ok, enough of that... back to my FABULOUS weekend! I wasn't really...

Hello world!!! I took off a week and I must say I'm glad to be back at it!!! Today's topic is long sleeves!! For a tall girl, long sleeves happen to be the devil! We can't order anything with long sleeves online... Most of the time anything with long sleeves is toooooooooo short and when it isn't we buy it, even if its ugly!!! LOL I'm personally starting to feel disrespected. I don't understand whats's so hard about creating garments specifically for the above average height woman... Now I will say that over the years it has gotten better, we do now have pants n jeans that come in tall...* All praises to the most high* Now if only cute button ups, frilly blouses n coats would catch up... I really don't want to have to resort to wearing a coat from the mens department at Macy's! I'm to sexy for all that... The year before last I purchased a Calvin Klein bubble coat for women that was barely passing... Had to get a pair of long gloves to make it lo...

Why is it that everything that's not considered "normal" is made fun of or exploited??! I went to google and typed in tall women. Scrolling down I noticed that there were YouTube videos featuring tall women. What I didn't expect to see were some of my fellow long leggs allowing themselves to be treated like freaks of nature.. Being exploited in a manner I found to be rather repulsive!!! Being an above average height female I think I'm quite beautiful, unique even... Not so rare anymore but a treasure none the less. As I'm writing this I'm thinking I need to change my original question.. Hmmmmmmm... the question should be "Why is everything that's not considered "normal" being allowed to be made fun of or exploited by those being exploited???!!" Now that's something to think about.... Do tall women look at themselves as freaks?? Is it a self esteem thing? Were they not brought up in a supportive environment that taught them to be...

My homie Kd asked me why I've been bashing the short dudes... Have I?? LOL... Really I've just been telling my tall tales.. kinda like adventures of a long legged gal! It's not my intention to be bashing so I hope no one is taking offense. This is all coming from a good place. I must say that I have been enjoying my height even more than usual lately. It has me wondering if maybe I wasn't as confident in it as I thought before now. Maybe it's just personal growth, but whatever it is... I'm lovin it!!! Last night I had the pleasure of being a hostess at the Social Cravings event held here in Atlanta... I was in a room with some really awesome black women and it was very empowering. Seeing woman embracing each other and wanting success for one another was pretty motivating! I met a lot of beautiful and talented women but one stood out more than any and that was the talented Nicci Gilbert of Brownstone.. I never realized how ...

I've been doing a lot of research into this tall girl thing. The other day while browsing through the many sex tips, tall girl clothing tricks, etc... I came across a title that grabbed my attention... 10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER DATE A TALL GIRL. Now ya'll know I had to stop and read this nonsense!! After reading it I decided to share and respond! Here we go... 1.Because you're the little spoon- nobody wants to cuddle with a beast     I say she can spoon you, cuddling is cuddling.  Who cares who's the cuddler and who's the cuddlee 2. Hand jobs from her are the most emasculating thing- Monster hands are scary and once she puts her hands on your penis it makes your johnson look nonexistant.     Umm 2 things, 1: I have never in my life had a man stop me from touching him because of the size of my hands! 2: If my hand makes your "johnson" disappear, then the size of my hands really isn't your problem!!!! 3. 6'5 in heels is never a good loo...
