#acceptable fat

idk if it’s the body dysmorphia talking or whatever tf is wrong with me, but for such a long time I have always kind of felt like I could not fully connect with other plus size women online. Ever since I started trying to get into social media, I would purposely seek out and follow plus size bloggers, especially those that were big on fashion. However, I noticed that a lot of the plus size people that I kept seeing online generally fit into two categories: those that were just big enough to be considered plus size (like size 12/14) and those who were bigger but had a curvy, proportionate shape (i.e. “acceptable fat”) where they’re slimmer in the waist and bigger in the top and bottom. I don’t exactly fit into either category plus idek how I would describe what my body looks like (pear shaped? apple shaped?). I guess what I’m trying to say is that I would love to see more plus size women who are neither a size 12/14 or possess a curvy hourglass shape online

I read it as not only as a comment about how they are acceptably fat but also a classist and racist remark that specifically relies on anti-blackness as a lot of fat hatred in the midwest (and south) is directed at poor black people.
