Hey, everyone! Our fat positive social group Abundance Chicago is committed to providing an accessible space for our community members. We often meet outdoors where accessible seating is not always an option. Help us purchase two high weight capacity folding chairs for fat folks in our community who may need them. Thank you!

how to heal internalized fatphobia:

fuck someone who isn’t skinny

trust me when i say that worshiping the ground that they walk on will legitimately change the way you think about your own body. you see yourself in them. the stretch marks on their tummy and thighs, the curves and folds of their body, there’s truly nothing more healing than that. and they get to be fucked by someone hot too so wins all around.

this post is abt lesbian sex. men and minors dni.

To my fat community,

I’m sorry your peace is disturbed every single New Year.

I’m so sorry you have to gear up and prepare your physical body for the bombardment of people’s hatred of their bodies projected on you.

I’m sorry people in your life make you feel like your body is wrong because they hate their own. 

I’m sorry that you have had to work through years of therapy because your body was a family topic for most of your early childhood life.

I’m sorry that people who built their platforms in support of body liberation exploited you and are now pathologizing fatness as a disease rather than healing their own internalized fatphobia.

I’m sorry that brands tolkenize you for social capital, yet refuse to make garments to fit your body. 

I’m sorry that year after year we become the villain because we refuse to beat our asses into submission. 

I’m sorry that your preciousness wasn’t honored, and your value was EVER questioned.

So on this New Year’s Day I want to remind you that you get to rest and relax. I want you to remember that your body is like the ocean it will ebb and it will flow. It will change, and it will grow, but you… The most essential part of you is a force of nature. You are the entire universe, a mega, gigantic, brilliant masterpiece. I am so beyond proud of you, and the force that you are. 

May you remember your own magic this year, and be unwavering in your dedication to standing your ground, and living a full and beautiful life.

Cheers babes!

Your friend in Fatness, Anna Chapman

I identify with this so, so much. I’ve been fat for a long time, and have also felt very alienated from both femininity and masculinity. One of my long-standing responses to gender identity is that “whatever came in the box is fine, I guess.” But now that my body is ready to shed some of the weight, I’m finding myself thinking about femininity in a really different way, and it is trippy as hell. I’m not sure how I feel about it.

working on a zine about the intersections of fatness, gender, and growing up online. it's a long time coming and i'm still not sure where it'll take me.

Socialists, get into fat liberation theory right the fuck now. I am speaking as a fellow dirty commie, DO IT.

You all like to lump fatness into either the category of "product of bourgeoisie decadence" or "side effect of capitalism forcing us to eat bad food" when neither is the actual case.

Fat people exist in all social classes and all walks of life, often regardless of individual choices.

Fat people are victims of capitalist exploitation at the hands of the multi billion dollar diet and weight loss industry that pushes eating disorder behavior and unnecessary surgeries on to us all in the name of profits.

Fatphobia ties into beauty standards that capitalists use to manipulate people into hating their bodies so they can be sold beauty. Think about how many of the ads you get every day are for weight loss.
