Katie Woolls stands at an impressive 6ft 9 inches and attracts a huge amount of attention both online and in person. Even with that, she has been single for the last two years, and she believes her height is the only real obstacle. At 27, she has gotten used to towering over most men, but she admits the reaction she gets can make dating nearly impossible.
She said: “The norm in society is for the man in the relationship to be taller. It’s so difficult to find someone who is actually willing to date someone taller than them.”
“People are OK with it in theory, until we meet up and I’m literally a foot taller than them – and then it’s an issue for them.”
“A lot of men see me as a one-off fantasy, and then once they’re done with it, they don’t want to stick around. I’m just something to tick off their fantasy tick list”
Katie said: “My legs are almost twice as long as normal legs. I don’t own any jeans. I have to wear skirts that are mini on men with tights because no trousers fit me.”
“I’ll spend thousands of pounds on clothes online every month, but only three or four items actually fit me properly. I end up sending half of the items back because they are either too short or too tight”
She added: “The couple of times I’ve been out with guys who haven’t minded my height, it’s been more of a fetish for them rather than them actually wanting something long-term and serious. Height has never been an issue for me. I love a height difference.”
“I like exploring fantasies too, but I also just want to find someone with whom I can settle down with as well. I like super average guys.”
“Hopefully one day I’ll find someone who will just take me as I am and not just a fantasy”
