All Bodies Are Good Bodies

People with “minor” disabilities who aren’t sure if they belong in disabled spaces

People who have rare disabilities and don’t see other people with the same disability, even in disabled spaces

People who’ve been told nothing is wrong with them even though is something clearly wrong that now feel like they’re just making stuff up

People who have been dismissed by doctors because they didn’t fit the image the doctor had of what a “sick” person looked like

People who tried to get help for their problem and are still waiting

People who have unaddressed health problems in general

If you feel like you cant get your needs met or communicated due to your disabilities, I love you.

If youre scared of losing your independence, if you feel trapped and out of control? I love you so fucking much. You are not alone, you are not broken, you are beautiful and loved and important and I hope so much that things get easier or more manageable for you.

One of the best known things about diet culture/fat-phobia is the rationale that people give for being fat-phobic – “I’m just worried for your health!” “Fat people die sooner right? I just want you to have a longer life.”

Some variation of that has always popped up when I rail against diet culture. But here’s the truth: fat does not mean unhealthy. And even if it did you do not owe it to anyone to be “healthy”. Health is a concept that is very difficult to determine and the mainstream studies on the medical taboos of fatness are often based in the classic statistical conundrum correlation instead of definitively showing causation. Often times, health is only accessible to what white and upper class individuals have access to. Thinness becomes an ideal that only the wealthy may reach and that is what is applauded. Their definition of health can and should be rejected. At the end of the day, your experience and your health as a whole are entirely dependent on a much larger set of factors than weight alone and even then, you are on this Earth to survive just like the rest of us. Your life is for you, so enjoy.
