Larger bodied people often encounter reminders that their bodies are the âwrongâ size, and that thereâs something wrong with them. Lots of minor discomforts, and a few major discomforts, add up over the course of the day. It can make people feel like they donât fit in, donât belong, in this world that was not built to accommodate them.
Making the world accessible to people of all body sizes is important to me. Comfort is important, but thatâs not the only thing. Itâs not just about safety either (which is also incredibly important). This is about inclusion and about making sure that everyone feels like there is space for them in this world. As advocates for body liberation, as so many of us are, we must continue to center the experiences of those who face significant systemic barriers to just EXISTING in their bodies.
