Just posting this here:

a few more I would add because I get asked about clothes a lot:

thank you! i know i’ve reblogged this before, but since i’m running a sale in my store right now i figured it might be a good time to reblog it again!!

"I think fat people deserve more ethical and high quality clothing choices"Yes, you are definitely right. Too bad some of us have no choice but to resort to mediocre quality when clothing brands that sell high quality fashion offer almost 100$ FOR ONE SWEATER. It's at this point there are people who who can not afford many things in general have to resort to places such as Shein. Because as if using child labor wasn't already bad, what makes it worse is Fast Fashion is the one place where ones from the lower class feels like they can get something nice even if it won't last that long.

There is no shame in buying fast fashion as a fat person, especially, given our serious lack of options. Unfortunately ethically sourced items will always have a higher cost, taking into consideration that “ethically sourced” means they pay their workers a fair livable wage, more expensive ethically sourced materials and high quality fabric will be used, and the items will be created on a much smaller production scale than fast fashion brands. It’s true that ethically sourced fashion, in most cases, is a privilege that will only be afforded by some, but in my opinion, buying secondhand or recycled clothing will always be the most sustainable choice.

heyyy so i made a BMI calculator specifically for feedists lol
