Ice cold take: including fat people in media is not necessary.
It’s just weird people on tumblr with ass media literacy who want to convince you that it’s a horrible injustice that the token fat character no longer exists.
Anon your fatphobia is showing <3 I'm assuming this is to do with my critique of gameoverse lacking body diversity and despite my post ahving zero notes you've decided to take it out on me lol
Now let me actually amke a point against this so you can't claim I'm not providing a solid response. Is including poc people in media (with human characters) necessary? Is including people who are disabled necessary? Is including women necessary? Arguably no but if your piece of media only included white people or men or able-bodied or any other majority you have a very paper thin piece of media that lacks nuance or really anything interesting nobody wants to hear about more white men with no struggles since that's what dominates real life anyway. And that piece of media will and should face criticism for it we don't live in the medival times people in minorities exist. People in real life are fat so therefore there should be fat people in fiction.
Also again if this is about the gameoverse thing I never even explicitly stated that there should be a fat character (specifcally a fat woman) I have a problem with the fact that all the female characters have an hourglass shape and big boobs. You can be female and not fat but also not have an hourglass shape and boobs.
this is not a cold take no one agrees with you bud.
