Being smart and successful while fat
Thin privilege is not having to dread/worry about going to your own graduation celebration because your great-aunt will be there who will make a comment about how you’ve gained weight, have yet to lose weight, or how much bigger you are compared to all your other cousins.
Thin privilege is not having all your hard work and accomplishments of being first in the family to graduate from college be rendered meaningless because what’s the point of being smart and successful if you’re fat?
I'll Be A Fatty Forever: I Want to See a Fat Girl →
I want to see a fat girl in a leading role of a film.
I want to see a fat girl in a leading role of a film that isn’t about her weight.
I want to see a fat girl wearing mini skirts or just whatever the fuck she’s comfortable in.
I want to see a fat girl kick some bad guy’s ass.
I want to see a fat girl be the one that the guy/girl falls in love with at first sight instead of just the fat girl the guys all make fun of first before getting to the stereotypical blond, thin white girl.
I want to see a fat girl who isn’t the thin girl’s funny friend.
I want to see a fat girl love scene.
I want to see a fat girl be a fucking survivor of a god damned fucking zombie apocalypse! Fuck you and your rule #1, Zombieland!
I want to see a fat Disney princess.
I want to see a badass fat girl who is sardonic and smokes, and when someone comments on her weight and how smoking makes it worse, she just blows smoke right in their faces.
I want to see a fat girl who loves to screw and isn’t ashamed of the fact.
I want to see a fat girl’s leading man/woman punch some guy in the fact for making fun of her.
I want to see a fat girl be something that is not her weight. I don’t want her to be the butt of every joke. I don’t want her to be the one who’s constantly rejected, or the one who has to fight to accept herself and have others around her accept who she is. I’m tired of seeing roles for fat girls that are only about her weight. I want to see a fat girl living her normal existence. I want to see her know she’s beautiful and not have to go through some huge challenge of loving herself. I’m tired of seeing horror films with only a thin cast. Fatties can run, too, a lot of times faster than you can and I can guarantee fatties can probably beat a bad guy up better, too.
I WANT TO SEE A FAT GIRL, HOLLYWOOD!
Hey Tumblr! It’s my birthday so it’s only appropriate to give you a picture of me in my birthday suit. It took 28 years to feel comfortable enough to share my big beautiful fat Chinese birthday princess body with the interwebz.
P.S. I totally cut my own hair today.

A pack of “nice guys” should be called a fedoration.
20 bucks says I get a shit load of extra trolling over the next 24 hours. Cos you know, a fat person says something about fat experiences, and we gotta cut that bitch down.
And there will be a shit load of not-fat people “politely disagreeing”. Here’s my response now, let’s get it out of the way because I’ve got better things to do that argue with a bunch of people determined to ignore their privilege. You ready for it?
prettylittledaleks said: I have to politely disagree
See this is where I don’t give a fuck. And I’m not going to be “polite” about it.
Don’t like it - go ahead and unfollow. I don’t want you around anyway.
Body Image Issues =/= Fat Stigma/Prejudice
Ok not-fat people, it’s time to just stop. Yes, we know people of all body shapes and sizes suffer from poor body image issues. But we’re not fucking talking about “body image issues” here.
We are talking about the way society as a whole treats fat people as sub-human and strips our basic right to a peaceful life away from us.
Fat people are not allowed to have a positive body image AT ALL, and this is BECAUSE fat is stigmatised and fat people suffer cultural prejudice.
Having poor body image is not the same as having people blatantly prejudiced against you because of your body.
Having poor body image is something that YOU feel or think about YOURSELF because of the way that bodies are policed in our culture. Fat stigma and prejudice are something that our entire society feels and DOES to fat people because fat people are regarded as lesser beings than not-fat people.
They are not the same thing and you do not get to bring body image in not-fat people up when we are talking about fat prejudice and stigma.
Got it? Now knock that shit off.
When the music is inside you, it must come out.
This right here is why I love cats.
thin privilege is never having to wake up to fatphobic trolls telling you bullshit about your body that isn’t true because you want equal rights to other people, and then having people try to police your tone when you give them a piece of your mind.
Every. Single. Fucking. Day. Of. My. Fucking. Life.
