Y’all...I was just mindin my business on tiktok and WHAT the fuvk is all this now???
[image I.D.: a screenshot of an infographic. The title reads “The Fatness Spectrum as used on thefatlip.com” Underneath the title, there are 4 blue squares each containing text. The first square’s title reads “Small Fat.” The text body reads “1X-2X. 18 and lower. Torrid 00 to 1. Find clothes that fit at mainstream brands and can shop in many stores.” The title of the next square reads “Mid Fat”. The body reads “2X-3X. 20 to 24. Torrid 2 to 3. Shops at some mainstream brands, but mostly dedicated plus brands and online.” The title of the third square reads “Superfat.” The text body reads “4X-5X. 26 to 32. Torrid 4 to 6. Wear the highest sizes at plus brands. Can often only shop online.” The final square’s title reads “Infinifat.” The text body reads “6X and higher. 34 and higher. Some Torrid 6. Very difficult to find anything that fits, even online. Often requires custom sizing.” /end I.D.]
#personal#like this was being used ENTIRELY seriously#to talk about relative privilege among fat people#like yeah true it’s easier to find clothes if ur smaller and that’s a conversation worth having#HOWEVER#what are we gaining by drawing lines like this?#why are we sayin things like ‘why are u a smallfat speaking over me a midfat? check ur smallfat privilege’#and maybe this is another tiktok hoax I just can’t tell#but a lot of ppl in those comments was serious....
