Lots of people feel entitled to comment on a woman's appearance -- especially if that woman happens to be taller than them.

　　很多人覺得對女人的外表評頭論足是理所應(yīng)當(dāng)?shù)?，如果這個女人還是個高妹的話，那就更應(yīng)該要評一評。

　　Just as skinny women are tired of being told to “eat a burger” or that they “l(fā)ook like a toothpick,” and short women cringe when someone asks “what the weather's like down there,” taller women are subject to giraffe jokes and questions about their femininity.

　　就像瘦子已經(jīng)厭倦了別人說“你應(yīng)該去吃漢堡”或者“你瘦得像根牙簽”；矮個子的女人不喜歡別人問她們“下面的空氣是什么樣的”，高妹也常常聽到和長頸鹿有關(guān)的玩笑話，還有關(guān)于有沒有女人味的質(zhì)疑。
