tall women’s salaries leave short girls in the shade

today on air with kenny jones – the crew discovered some research that showed that tall women make larger salaries than short women.  and that may be a tall order for all the shorties out there to accept…and yes – pun intended!

according to this study – gals who stand at 5’8″ or less earn about 30 grand less per year than their loftier colleagues.

another part of the study showed the vertically challenged claimed they were unhappy with thier looks.  while 90% of the “long tall sallies” said they would change nothing about themselves!

perhaps it’s confidence that leads to those increased pay grades.

this got the on air contingent talking about height.  and their curiosity got us wondering whether or not the guys would date a gal that is taller than them (and vise versa).  here’s what they had to say…

okay, lets be honest – dating a girl taller than you or a guy shorter than you isn’t for everybody.  some of you may be a lil’ to insecure for that kinda thing…and if that’s the case, you’ve probably got bigger issues than your partner’s height.

but before you knock a relationship with those 5’8″ plus liz-adies, think about all those gorgeous gals you’ve got to look up to, like…

  • heather graham – 5’9″
  • cameron diaz – 5’9″
  • rebecca romijn – 5″10
  • nicole kidman – 5’10″
  • elle macphearson – 6′o”
  • brooke shields – 6’0″

so don’t shun a tall hottie just cuz you’ve gotta look up to her or stand on your tip toes to kiss her…ya never know, it could be worth it!

catch on air with kenny jones – weekdays from 7-11am, exlusively on radio indigo 91-9.
