the issue isn't petite women, the issue is "western" society's beauty standards being rooted in pedophilic tendencies. the same reason why some prefer hairless vaginas, big/doll eyes, submissive behaviour etc. this has been spoken about for years

i cannot & will not speak for petite/small women. but as a large/taller than average woman i can speak on how we are often seen as masculine, not "feminine" enough, not desired because we're not the physical ideal. that spectrum still falls under patriarchal expectations of women

to conform to an ideal size/shape/manner. it's what sold to us from when we are little girls. paris hilton is nearly 40 but still puts on a baby voice when she speaks. it all stems from the same problem that expects women to appear/act/be young

but this is really contextual because studies show that it's not the case in every country. but honestly, that girl's tweet was not far-fetched, it was just worded badly. the issue is our society's expectation of what an ideal woman is/looks like, and where that desire stems from

but i will say that saying a grown's woman's body looks like a kid when that is her natural physique is body shaming. it literally can't be helped. the issue is with those that SPECIFICALLY only desire small women because of perceived "child-like" qualities
