#fat people are so beautiful

[ahollowgrave]

I would pay real money to be able to build a character as beautiful as Odette for real in FFXIV with that great body type ...;_; she's so good!

I've been staring at this for literal days ;-----; I would too anon! I would too !! Thankful that other people with more skill and know-how than I are able to build tools that I can so eagerly use!! Thank you for your kindness! I hope it returns to you! <3.

Someone with a better mind for character design than me should redesign Vauthry because of how the fatphobic design makes idiots unable to read the nuance surrounding him and ALSO because I do feel like there's a good design in there.

The way he's stylized doesn't do him any favors but I think that the tie between his baby-like appearance and the whole concept of innocence surrounding him could be so good if they didn't do it like that. At the very least, I feel like he should have gotten childlike eyes.

I feel like it would have been interesting if instead of leaning heavily into "grotesque fat manbaby" stereotyped design they maybe made him look like. An actual child, to give off that air of innocence. Sort of like a padjali situation with him, which offers an interesting tie between the "pure" white mages of the Source and him. I also feel that it would offer a more visual parallel between him and Alphinaud. He can even keep the fat, with it even giving him a design aspect of angelic cherubs.

i don’t want to be rude but when i see a series of drawings of character adaptations that are all skinny i want so badly to shake the artist by the shoulders and go “now where are the fat ones?” because come on

[not-gray-politics]

Trans women. I'm grabbing you by the shoulders and yelling. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE SKINNY TO BE FEMININE AND PRETTY AND CUTE. PLEASE STOP MAKING DIETS PART OF YOUR TRANSITION GOALS. WEIGHT LOSS IS A SCAM. I LOVE YOU. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES. YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL.

It fucking blows my mind how so many men will just see a picture of a woman and feel compelled to publicly announce whether he finds her fuckable or not. This happens on basically every social media site and also irl. Like, did you ever consider that maybe she's not desperate for the approval of random men and she doesn't care if you think that she's too fat or her nose is too big or whatever?

It just gets really disheartening running into this time and time again because it really hammers in the point that far too many men only value women for our looks. Like they have the capacity to comment literally anything and somehow it always comes back to whether a woman makes their peepee hard or not.

im always going to be a little pissed that shipping and genderbending will always eclipse the fanart conversation when whitewashing/fatphobia is alive and well in art and needs addressing

when art lacks racial representation this conveys that we arent important, insignificant, and it mirrors how we are treated as a second thought to white people, if we are even thought about at all.

when art lacks fat representation it reinforces stigmatizations of our already heavily criticized bodies.

we can do better, be better, about racism and fatphobia but if we're constantly giving our attention to discussions as futile as shipping or genderbending discourse its not going to happen

i’m so used to how you draw zelda that whenever i see someone else draw her it’s literally like. skinny person jumpscare.

literally being a fat zelda truther is so hard bc why do people insist on drawing the girl like she's never had a meal in her life. put some meat on her bones please god she is starving

"Seungmin would be SO hot if he got muscle like, can you imagine?" You would be hotter if you shut your mouth but we can't always get what we want so <3

[frostbite-the-bat]

society if literally 80% of rw fandom and especially rw analysis youtubers (who are great, EXCEPT) stopped calling gourmand heckin' chonker chubby diabetic ginormous whatever and paid more mind to their whole character and not just the fact that they're fat

[sasshomaru]

having finally watched the substance it is disappointing but not at all surprising that the negative reviews being like “this is saying a whole lot of nothing and is just a body horror fest” are almost exclusively by straight cis men

[animaldamnation]

Fat men that mock and degrade fat women should be hunted for sport.

[tenmillionpoundsofsludge]

Someone (asshole): there's no way anyone could realistically find fat men attractive we need to always strive to stay fit and "healthy"

Me, who heard the words "fat men" and got so horny I nearly passed out: whatt are you saying to me right now

[represseddepressedqueer]

How do people deal with being in the minority of people in their twenties who no one has ever had a crush on? Knowing that I’m functionally undesirable and that NO ONE has ever looked at me and had a serious romantic+sexual, non-fetishising crush is really fucking bumming me out.

Like I can’t talk about this with friends because they don’t believe and just say that I’m putting myself down, I can’t afford a therapist to talk to about this, and now I’m no longer aroace so I’m getting crushes and finding people attractive while knowing that I’m never going to experience those feelings reciprocated.

I’ve been through objectively worse things in my life but knowing that I’m always going to be yearning for a connection that I’ll never get is enough to make me wanna truly end it all.

Any genuine tips for dealing with this???
