#fat negativity

[uncanny-tranny]

One thing that pushed me to looking into fat liberation and whatnot was to see how fat people literally can't win.

A fat person could eat nothing but fruits and vegetables and drink water, and exercise every day, and there would still be people telling them that they need to "get healthy". A fat person can do whatever they could do do the "right" things for their bodies, and if they still live in a fat body, they are mistreated. The only way fat people can "win" in this scenario is if they stopped existing - which is impossible.

Fatness isn't a punishment for moral faliure. It's something that happens for many reasons.

#fat liberation #fatphobia #fatphobia tw #you know what's funny (/neg)? how a fat person was WORKING OUT and people still said 'that's not healthy >:(' #anyway it's just upsetting. it's actually not hard to... not mistreat people #salt circling this post btw

Calling all body positive ppl

Does anybody have recs for fat & body positive creators I can follow. Especially about movement and intuitive eating.

But also just seeing other fat people doing hobbies and being visible on the internet would be nice. I like gaming, books, the usual nerd package.

I’m having so much trouble searching for these sorts of creators without getting suggested fatphobic or pro-ED content instead which is very upsetting :(

Even if you don’t have answers please reblog so I can find people who do!!

#I really hope this finds people somehow #I really need role models :( #I’m going through some weight changes right now due to changes in my medications #working SO hard on not trying to diet or think negatively about my weight #and instead focusing on feeling good #intuitive eating #body posititivity #fat acceptance #body neutrality #chronic illness #disability

this might just be the pessimism talking but there are times when I feel the body positive movement is straight up Over. even stuff from now that’s meant to be body positive, or is packaged in that way, is of a lower caliber. like it feels like it’s gotten worse.

#this shit has LEFT #the standards are even lower rn than they have been before #and 'body positivity' has been overtaken by images of bodies that are already socially accepted #and commercially accepted #all the way up to and including bodies that are literally just like. plastic surgery shaped #and none of it is for fat people anymore #and where I saw people more openly criticizing shitty depictions of women's bodies in the past i don't see that shit anymore #and the term 'body shaming'. god how far that has fallen #that gets used if someone so much as implies that kim kardashian esque plastic surgeries that people get #are not fucking Women Empowering Operations #like it's gotten so bad that ppl are saying it's feminist and empowering that so many women are getting bbls #and conversations abt how people get pushed into WANTING to make these alterations w constant negative feedback about their bodies #gets put into a neat little 'smh not very body positive of you' argument #where AM i. #sergle.txt #plus size models are getting smaller. conversations abt body positivity have gotten worse. concerns get shut down faster.

[organized-chaotic-disaster]

Being fat is sexy, actually. And this includes people with body types that don't fit societal beauty standards (i.e., big bellies, double chins, fat arms)

Fat people are hot and we need to stop pretending they aren't xo

#this isn't meant to be fetishizing btw and if it is please lmk and I can delete this!! #imo fetishizing would be taking away one's humanity. That isn't the point of this post this post is just saying fat people can be & are hot #fatposi #fat positivity #bodyposi #body positivity #sometimes I need to reassure this for myself so I think others probably feel the same way so here you go ;v; #me when I'm going through my clothes and something's too tight: oh :( I'm so fat (negative) (bad and also wrong that it's seen as negative) #also me when seeing pics and/or art of fat women: oh. oh my. is uh. is it getting hot in here or is it just me? I'm uh. wow. I'm gay 😳

note to marauders fandom: just cause you add a bunch of queer characters and poc xcharacters to your fanfics, it doesn’t mean your inclusive and understanding

#writing queerness and not understanding the nuance of queerness is not inclusivity #thinking that queer people can fit into your little boxes is not inclusivity #saying a character is fat then their only trait being that they eat is just mean #making a black woman’s only personality mean and brooding is not okay #writing women into fics with the only plot point being she is in the way of your gay ship is misogynistic #making a bi characters attraction the the opposite sex a negative is biphobic #not listening to the groups to write about when they state that you are doing something that makes them uncomfortable is wrong #not taking feedback from these groups when they say something is offensive is wrong #we are not your plot points we are human #marauders era #sirius black #james potter #remus john lupin #wolfstar #peter pettigrew #marlene mckinnon #dorcas meadowes #lily potter #mary macdonald #harry potter #jily #dorlene #blackinnon #lily evans #jegulus #prongsfoot #character breakdown

it seems as though a lot of people are taking my posts out of context? or misconstruing my intent in them. I post things specifically about being “bigger” men and such, because I feel as though a lot of transmasc representation defaults to white androgyny or really just white beauty standards in general. and that’s not realistic.

I don’t think it’s necessarily body positivity I’m trying to expose the world to though. just the idea that your body is your own to twist and contort as you please.

you’re free to think whatever you want, just know that I really do read and look at what y’all say.

#being trans is hot regardless #I guess feederism blogs are okay idk #body neutrality (?) #idk idgaf just know u don’t gotta be a twink #forcemasc #autoandrophilia #bootstrap talk #fat and obesity isn’t inherently negative can you guys stop being weird about it

Look i know strikes are good and ill keep telling that to myself but the public transportation keeps doing that for a few days every week at this point and i wanna cry because i have no other way of getting to work.. luckily my parents live near my workplace so i can sleep there but i cannot wind down there also cant take my laptop with me because it would be too heavy to carry to work with me so no digital art either...

#look i love my mom but she is very negative all the time and that gets me down #you can only listen to someone who is like super thin talk about how disgusting she feels because she has a small little bit of fat #especially because i am like considerally more chubby #and she keeps telling me that i am too fat #sigh #well and i miss my gf #sanch #im ighhgh like all power to the unions so i dont wanna complain but its just a bit much for me...

[fatmasc]

We can say fake it till u make it and love urself where ir at and all these great body positive/body neutral things but the reality is most plus size ppl not actively finding fat accepting spaces are still going to hate themselves.

I work in plus size retail. I only sell to plus size ppl. 90% of my customers tell me things like "i need to hide my fat" and "my stomach is my problem area" and "i cant wear this because im too big/old/whatever". And i cant just say to them "youre wrong, your body is fine" bc 1. We dont know each other like that and 2. They arent going to be receptive to it. The most i can do is say "well, you can wear whatever u want!" And try to help them find smth that makes them feel good ab themselves.

These sayings are good but in the material world most ppl are on a slower track and thats ok. Thats also why its so important to have places like pluss size clothing stores, bc even if someone still feels bad ab being fat at least they have a place to go that will accept them

#tldr: stop being dicks to ppl who use negative self talk #it sucks that they do! but being negative in response does not break that cycle #and we need to foster more fat accepting places #fat #.txt

“but what about skinny people with eating disorders” what the fuck about them. honestly. what about fat people with eating disorders? why doesn’t anyone think of them? why is it always skinny people who are the focal point of all things body-image and -positivity related? why are eating disorders only talked about or cared about when it’s a skinny person suffering from it? don’t tell me. i know why

#fatphobia #eating disorders are tragic when you’re skinny. when you’re fat they’re encouraged and you deserve it #i drink skinny tears for hydration #text post #ed tw #negativity

[stars-for-circe]

It’s the way I just read a “you’re not fat, you’re beautiful” on a supposed body positivity post- 😭😭😭

#the irony oml #how ab we stop assuming that fat is always a negative connotation #and I fucking cackled because what the fuck lmao 💀

TW: MENTIONS OF EATING DISORDERS, Self Harm.

Just noticed this but...

Anyone else notice how after the show mentioned Moxxie losing weight after he was bullied into having body dysmorphia... that the character is now full on skinny? A lot more than before? The saddest part is that HB used to be my comfort show, and Moxxie comforted me seeing how autistic he was, so for the show to resort him to a carbon copy of Blitz like in "Western Energy" and a fetishization of femmes and ED is just... wow, holy shit.

-and I know that Moxxie's legs were NOT that skinny just a few episodes ago. -and the show has now confirmed that he is "losing weight" after being "harassed into thinking that he's fat while he's not at all." and now seeing how he looks dangerously skinny in this shot holy fucking shit the show's actually going with having him having an eating disorder... isn't it? Especially with how everyone else who is sexualized far more than Moxxie is, is bone-thin, or has no internal organs, and now im starting to get concerned for the creators as you'd have to have something seriously wrong with your body image to do something like this within your art. Vivienne... are you ok?

"It's just an art style" No, having negative body image is not an "art style", you can be cartoony without psychologically harming yourself and how you see your body. -and seeing how Vivziepop has now fetishized the ED's of real life people (KESHA!) and has eating disorders as a "running gag" (god, hearing this just made me want to gag! dear god!) in her show(s).. Yeah... this, and the representation that's scaringly close to stereotypes that are being used by conservatives, right now, to kill the lgbt+ community by calling them "dangerous around children", is just... yikes, now you know why that im going to be avoiding this episode like I did for most of the Kesha one. Helluva Boss is now beyond redemption at this point.

It's now gone from badly written... to rancid.

#helluva boss #helluva boss critical #helluva boss criticism #Moxxie now has an eating disorder 😟😬💀 #Viv- WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO OUR BOY!? Why you starving him what did he do to deserve this?! All he did was exist! #-and in a real life context: #Having negative body image is not dark humor. It's a sign of something that's actually wrong with you. Viv. Please get help. #genuinely fucking concerned not just for the people Vivziepop fetishized for having ED. #But Vivienne herself. The fact that she draws the characters as bone-levels of skinny or women with no organs- #-and at the same time. Has one of her characters be publically humiliated for having regular amounts of body fat to the point where- #-he is now literally becoming anorexic.... Vivienne- Are you ok?! #-and the fact that her stans let her do things like this while overworking herself. It's actually cruel. and so I do feel genuinely bad for #her in that situation. God bless her. ... This is horrifying.

man life really is about adding as many “at least”’s to your existence as you physically can. ok maybe life sucks but at least I have that good snack waiting for me at home. yeah things are shitty but at least I like my makeup today. I’m stressed as hell but at least my dog is here. life is garbage but at least my hair is a fun color. I’m depressed as all hell but at least cosmic brownies exist. at least. at least. and then before you know it hey fuck me maybe life is pretty cool!!!

#does this make sense. #like we all know to find the little joys and shit #but if ur stuck in a really negative mood try reframing it to ‘at least’ #it can even be in like a comedic ironic way if you need to spin it like that #‘I wanna die but at least I have fat tits’ type beat #but then slowly find more and more things #fucking MAKE things to add to the list of you have to #box dye your hair paint your nails visit your friends have orgasms drink warm things eat a brownie etc etc #there is always an ‘at least’. at least there are stars. at least the sky is blue. at least grass is green. at least cats exist. #always always always

I think people should be allowed to share their distaste for certain headcanons n such without people making posts about how they’re ‘gatekeeping’. for as much as I’m a ‘do what you want’ kinda dude, I do think that includes allowing people to express why they don’t enjoy something. like most people are pretty civil bout it until you antagonize them by pointing and saying they’re ‘policing’ spaces.

#crow thoughts #sorry fandom stuff is like. kinda stressing me out a bit #and it’s kinda making me nervous to post opinions on things. #additionally I think people need to hear out minorities when it comes to things and not antagonize them #additionally if they aren’t going up to people and saying rude shit or actively posting rude shit in the tags #what does it matter if they don’t enjoy your headcanon? #like I’ve already seen four different posts all talking about fandom negativity and it’s like. just block them. #additionally maybe also don’t put those posts in the main tags? especially if the other person just posted it to their blog :-| #im not explaining this correctly. I just don’t have good experience with people who point and claim negativity #especially in the context of actual criticism about character design preferences and the treatment of certain designs #like you cannot deny that people treat fat designs very differently from skinny designs #ur not a bad dude for having a skinny design but you gotta allow people to discuss and critique things #idk I’m just tired as fuck seeing people in the main tags make longass posts about an opinion from a handful of people- #-who only posted it to their blog and not directly in the tags yknow? #if I get too anxious I’ll delete this but for now I’ll post this
