    I'm 42, 6 feet and a virgin. I battled depression for years then I fell in love with and adopted a one month old baby whose mom had passed away and that stupid spirit of depression suddenly had no room in my life. I can't even explain it.

      Absolutely Wonderful Episode and much needed!!. I know this episode was specific to tall girls and women however it offered universal information. It shaded much light on embracing the skin we are in, awareness of prejudices and discrimination, mental health, abstinence, spiritual relationship and walk with God. Alicia was so transparent and grounded which may indicate the trials and tribulations are not vain but necessary to fulfill our purpose. Really enjoyed the dialogue. Praying Alicia is united with the man God has for her. Thank you both so much!!❤❤❤

    Miss Alicia, don't do what I did. I married out of fear. I knew I was not the one for this person. They were not for me, I was in a hurry because my parents marriage was terrible, I finished bible college, healed from their trama and didn't want to live in that space. Two weeks before wedding, I realized my soon to be husband was not ready. Went on any way to save face and still paying the price in that, healing in my grandchildren is now needed. Don't tell the Lord what you are going to do when in His love He tells you they are not for you. The price tag is very expensive. Believe me when I say, God has your husband ready. The price tag for doing things on your own is so exspensive.

    Went on a group trip to Cuba a few years back and one of the girls on the trip was over 6 feet. I was annoyed for her seeing other tourists blantantly stare and take pictures, just because of her height. She told me that was normal and I felt for her. I think at that point, she was used to it but like Alicia said in the interview, I could tell it would occasionally get to her. No one likes to be gawked at like they're an alien.

    One thing to add...my mother is 6 ft tall, so I had a daily living, breathing example of beauty and grace wrapped in a tall package. I didn't have esteem issues due to my height...I loved it! Women could tell...I would be in the mall, and mothers would walk up to me with their daughters, who were already taller than them, saying things like, "Look at her...she's tall and pretty, and she's wearing heels!" or "You should walk with your back straight like hers, don't slump!"

    I appreciate immensely Alicia Jay’s “why” as it pertains to her virginity: it is to honor God. It’s that simple & that powerful. We virgins get all kinds of labels & stereotypes & ridicule when all we’re trying to do is honor God. Then add the height to the mix & it’s just too much. Why we as humans stereotype each other I don’t understand..This was a refreshing convo. She has fought through so much. Her faith is amazing & her vulnerability is enviable.

    Hmmm. Well, like all significant differences in relationships (race, culture, height, religion, etc) it just depends on the individuals involved. My ex-husband was 2 inches shorter than me and unfortunately he had a complex (along with other insecurities). 🙄 He tried to cut me down emotionally to make up for it. Never again. If short girls have a height requirement, then at 5'9 and a half- I have a right to ask for 6ft or taller. 🙏🏾

    Miss Alicia,
    I commend you for your transparency and bravery. It’s difficult to talk about depression, especially as a Christian, because often people think it’s not real or you did something wrong.
    Your testimony of a lifelong struggle with depression resonates loudly in the belly of my soul. I agree with you. I adamantly believe that God created each of us uniquely wonderful, even with our imperfections. I believe that each of us has a divine purpose in life and we should strive to walk in it each day that we have breath in our bodies, and don’t condemn ourselves if we miss the mark at times.
    Choosing Joy,

      Yes, two typical rich women with ridiculously high standards, no wonder they can't find a man to marry for 20 years.
      They probably want someone who is also 40, and a CEO, and a stud, and a virgin ROFL good luck finding 40 year-old CEO virgins. You don't understand males if you think we'll wait while taking on the risk of paying for hundreds of dates for years with no results.

      God gave you a gift of millions of men available to you, you blew it for what ever reason
      dont blame God. God gives you 12 hrs of day light to prepare for night

    Thank you Alicia for encouraging me to always stand tall and confident. I'm 5.11, so self conscious about my height that I rarely wear heels to avoid being "too" tall. Just last Saturday I got the "You are so tall. Do you play basketball". I got the "You're wasting your height" for not modeling 😆 Height has been a deal breaker for me but God has also been working on me by showing me what truly matters the most. I'd still prefer a taller man and my prayer is that God doesn't allow my preferences/ insecurities to make me overlook the man He has for me. I trust that He will open my eyes to see what He sees in that handsome son of His😍 I pray the same for all the ladies and men in similar situations.
    Terrific episode as always. Thank you Laterras!

    I'm 51, no kids, never married, and God has filled my life with so many surprise blessings. I've accomplished things I never imagined in living what's considered an unconventional life for a woman. And I'm just getting started. God has shown me that there are more ways to be fruitful and multiply outside of having children, ya'll. His word and purpose for us runs so deep. In the words of my grandma, I wouldn't take nothing for my journey, now. I wouldn't change one thing!

    Great episode! Her spirit is beautiful. I love how transparent she was about her childhood, and experiences being a tall young woman of color and minority. I know people and children can be so hurtful. I remember those experiences. So many memories. And, I honestly agree with her, in relationships it matters a lot if you are with someone of similar height. One of the reasons I don't like dating shorter women, is that I don't like feeling tall... I like feeling normal.

    I’m 5’8 I don’t deem myself tall but others do. I’ve dated shorter men and they couldn’t handle it and had the worst attitudes. Short man complex is real. I do have a preference and tall men are. Not a virgin however I’ve been abstaining and I love how it weeds out the men who just want to smash.

    Alicia was speaking my language. A LOT of what she said I too have dealt with. I am 6'1" tall and I have been single for about 15 years & have been practicing abstinence during this time by choice after a failed relationship. I was tired & I told God that I've done things my way and now it was time to do things His way because what I was doing wasn't working. When Laterras said "Why would you give it away so casually when you held onto it so sacredly" that almost made me run around the room! Another podcast for the books!! Thank you so much!!
