Fat people do not have to be healthy in order to deserve dignity

Fat people do not have to be healthy in order to deserve dignity

Fat people do not have to be healthy in order to deserve dignity

If I see someone say, “It’s ok to be fat as long as you’re healthy,” one more time I’m gonna lose it. I know this is a crazy radical idea, but how about someone’s health has nothing to do with how you should treat them or how much respect they are deserving of?

jeffgoldblumsblackdaughter: modelsofcolor: “That’s me, above. I’m a size 12 to 14, and I’m fit, happy and healthy. I wasn’t always this way. In fact, the most unhealthy I’ve been was when I was 40 pounds lighter. My mom, Beverly Johnson, was the first black model on the cover of Vogue, and when I was a teenager, I decided I wanted to be a model too. So I starved myself, took laxatives and overexercised to fit into the clothes that models wear, and then signed with a major agency. People said I looked great, but I felt miserable because I was depriving my body of nutrients, and the more weight I lost, the more my self-esteem fell. Now I’m a plus-size model, and I’m the size I was meant to be. Everyone’s body is different; you can be unhealthy if you’re skinny or heavy. The key is to find the weight that’s best for your body and stay there.” - Anansa Sims  “People said I looked great, but I felt miserable…”

“If you are a woman, everything revolves around whether or not someone wants to fuck you. Instead of addressing “all bodies are beautiful” how about, “it is not necessary to be universally fuckable”?”

This is not a trivial distinction, in my unsolicited opinion.

Oh, yes, please.

“If the idea of thin privilege makes you angry, let me advance a theory: You are angry because you desperately NEED to feel superior to fat people. You NEED to look at yourself in the mirror and say, “Well, I might not have all my shit together, but at least I’m not fat.” You NEED to walk around and cast a disparaging eye on anyone who is ‘too’ fat according your vaunted sensibilities. You NEED to feel like, no matter what a fat person does — if they’re kinder than you, funnier than you, smarter than you — well that means fuck all because at least you’re not fat and that makes you BETTER THAN THEM.”

-ArteToLife (via fatanarchy)

Feel like sending this to Jennifer Lawrence and the rest of the “fat for ___________” crowd.

Stop putting us down because you fail to measure up to your own fucked up ideas of physical ‘success’.

Anonymous asked: Calories is how one maintains body weight. An excess of expended calories means gaining weight. A deficit means losing weight. Why do you believe one is not able to change their weight? I am on a bulk to gain weight and so I am eating more calories than I use in a day. And I am gaining weight. How come you believe the opposite is not possible?

Point out the place where I said that losing weight is biologically and chemically impossible for humans.

You’ve set up straw man arguments in *both* of your questions, anon. You’re really reaching today.
