"Look at that girl, she's so fat. How disgusting!"
"Look at that girl, she's so tall. How weird!"
These are examples of sizism.

Discrimination towards people of a different height, usually against people at the extremes of the height range, i.e: Extremely tall people or extremely short people.
Similar to racism but concerning height, not race.
