You're seen as more threatening
If a 5'3 girl makes a raunchy joke or teases a guy, she is seen as adorable. Like, it's endearing that she's so feisty and cheeky even though she's not even that funny and is kiiiiiind of a huge bitch. This is because she's non-threatening. I'm confident that boys don't laugh at my jokes not because it's unseemly to verbally incinerate people, but because they're threatened that I'm taller than them.
My high school superlative was "Most Unaware Offensiveness." I've never noticed that I'm offensive, but because I'm tall, people automatically assume I'm callous and crude when really I'm just tall and too hilarious. I'm not even allowed to make jokes about short girls' heights because they see it as bullying since I'm a foot taller than them. But then it's fair game to tease me for being a giant. I can take a joke and I'm totally fine with it. You okay, fine, "little people" need to learn to take a joke too, ya know?
