It also genuinely really bothers me how so many people's "pro fat" posts are along the lines of "Yeah, fat is fine/good, eat whatever you want as much as you want!" Like yes that's a good sentiment and yes fear of fatness is what causes so many people to eat less than they otherwise would. I Understand This. But it's important to me that people understand. Someone being fat does not actually mean they eat more than a thin person does. Just because you're ostensibly defending or praising the fat body does not mean you aren't partaking in dangerous stereotyping

If you frame fatness as 1. A deviation from a 'normal' baseline and 2. Caused by overindulgence, you are perpetuating a hurtful stereotype and I don't want to see it. I don't care if you think it's a good thing or not. I don't like being assumed to eat more (or more sweets, etc) than the thin people in my life because of my size, and I especially don't like the causal link people assume. Some people's bodies just are fat without them having 'done anything' to cause that to happen.
