俚语 the tall tax
释义

The tall tax

The 'tall tax' refers to the many inconveniences that a tall person may encounter in their life (whether that be financially or socially).

Most tall people are at a disadvantage financially because when they are on a long journey, they will often have no choice but to pay a premium for extra legroom even though they physically cannot fit in the seat otherwise.

In social situations, if there is a crowd trying to view an event, the tall person will always have to stand at the back because all of the smaller people will complain that they can't see. This is ironic as often the tall person will also not be able to see because they are not giants
Just because I'm tall, doesn't mean that I should have to pay more to sit down. That's the tall tax for you
