Biles' claim that her birth date out of the 365 days of the year belonged to her was misunderstood by a fan, who thought Biles was stealing her birthday.

"Not you stealing my birthday from me," @kalyn.www replied to Biles' post on Instagram.

Replying to this, the 27-year-old gymnast quickly clarified that her birthday was on March 14, and she was just late in posting the pictures:

Gymnastics GOAT Simone Biles has a height of 4ft 8 in, and while she is overly content with it, trolls never are. However, she knows how to give it back, and recently revealed how she handled the 'short' jokes.

During a Q&A on Instagram, a fan asked Biles for her advice on handling 'short' jokes, to which the 27-year-old replied:

"Just stare & look at them like they’re stupid. Make them feel awkward.”

Biles further added that she was no longer treated like an 'armrest' because she hadn't let anyone treat her the way they wanted.

“I’m just happy they don’t use me as an 'arm rest' anymore. That use to bug the sh**t out of me”, she added.
