I have a similar body type to you and I’ve recently been told I shouldn’t call myself fat because my body type is “socially acceptable” and since I don’t face systematic fat phobia (airline seats not being big enough, lack of available clothing in mainstream stores) it’s a misuse of the term. I haven’t responded yet because I’m still gathering my thoughts …. If you don’t mind me asking, how would you respond to something like that?
I know this is incredibly late and i apologize for that, but my thoughts on that are....disorganized.
There are fat ppl who have it easier than others. You can be fat and still navigate the world w more access than someone fatter than u. Ppl have told me here imnot even fat when its been smth ppl have noti ed first ab me my whole life. So like....if i were to guess i would say that person was taking something out on you or possibly misinformed. Im not sure
Basically we are one fat community and we have to acknowledge our privileges if we are less fat than others (as well as intersecting factors) and to play the game of "youre not fat enough" gets us nowhere

WIP Whenever!
I was tagged by @goldfish-fhr! So thank you! I love to show my stuff!!
I'm going to tag @calnexin as I saw in one of your post tags that no one tagged you for a WIP Wednesday!
It's been a little slow going as I've been getting ready to go away this weekend (currently writing this while not even all my stuff is in the car), but I gotta answer this before I go otherwise I won't be able to!!
I've been working on this current set of drawings of one of my fav Tiefling characters, Khalis Niakarhi. I've drawn her many many times and have changed her design once again as i could never get her horns right.
Below drawings were spurned on by a post I saw about a DnD adventuring party, but it's all made up of drunk girls that meet in a club bathroom, cause girls always got each others backs XD
(Khalis is 36-38ish, talking to someone in their early-midfates 20's)

I've also written a big more of my Dragon Age Fic
“We looked for you y’know? For a time. Before we couldn’t afford to keep looking for someone who was lost to the world.” When he turns to look at you you see the scared former Warden and not the King he is now and when he speaks his voice shakes, “Where were you?” “I was adrift,” you tell him, “Travelling with the Dalish, learning magic to help with the taint and I… I lost time,” you tell him as you clasp your hands together, “I lost time and I lost myself and it was worth it. It had to be. But I don’t-“ your breath hiccups in your throat and your eyes are burning, “But I don’t think I can ever forgive myself for slipping away so easily. For losing 7 years of my life and leaving those with no idea of what had happened to me and I’m so sorry Alistair,” you tell him as you wipe a gloved hands across a cheek, “I didn’t know. I didn’t realize it had been so long and I promised I would write and I never-“ Your rambling is stopped as you are embraced by a pair of sturdy arms covered in fabric finer than you will ever own. You curl yourself up into Alistair’s chest and you feel so small. You feel almost like a child again crying that the world isn’t fair but this time it is your life that had been stolen from you instead of your mother, “I-I-I’m s-sorry,” you sob as you clutch at his buttoned up shirt and all he does is hold you closer and rest his chin atop your head.
And my Selkie AU fic (literally just a continuation of the last bit I posted lol)
To bite and sink your teeth into flesh and as a sharp tipped tooth hovers over her pulse you catch yourself, and pull away. “That was…” Julia’s voice is light and breathy and her skin is warm beneath your hands. “Something,” you finish her sentence with a tilt of your head and a smile. She laughs and you’ll never tire of hearing such a sound. When she detangles her hands from your hair and steps back you hate how you miss her heat already. “As much as I would like to continue,” she begins and you see her flash you a grin through the dark, “It’s late, and now I have to dry my clothes in time for the morning.” “I wouldn’t have thought you would have minded being wet?” you raise and eyebrow and this time she laughs so hard that she almost dips beneath the water when she doubles over. You find yourself laughing along with her until the chuckles taper off into silence and you find yourself staring at her with a lightness in your chest that you haven’t felt in a long time. “Are you coming back ashore?” she asks as the silence stretches out and she points a thumb back over her shoulder as if you had forgotten where land was. The corners of your lips quirk. “Not quite yet,” you tell her, “I have missed swimming beneath the waves and now that I have nothing to fear I will do so until I tire.” There’s a worry on her face now and you’re not sure what it was that you said to bring such a sadness upon her so quickly. “You will come back though right?” she asks and you hear the tremble in her voice as you recall the fate of her father. Your heart aches in your chest and you close the short distance between you both as you grab her face in your hands and lean in to place a kiss upon her forehead. “The fates could not keep us apart.”

Midsize, or midfat? Those are two different things, I think. There's a great chart on this website if you're curious.
I feel a little embarrassed asking this, but how do I know if I count as fat vs being midsize?
midsize is just another word for straight sized. if you don't have to shop in exclusively plus sizes, you are straight sized

are you fat?
yeah, I’m kinda short and float between sizes 16/18/20. the bmi is total and utter bullshit but I’m in the ob*se category, though I would say I’m on the edge of smallfat & midfat

Y’all...I was just mindin my business on tiktok and WHAT the fuvk is all this now???
Tumblr media
[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.]

Different anon but I appreciate u sharing ur thoughts on the categories of fat people bc I've been thinking abt it a lot! It's not flawless by any means but personally I don't agree w the argument that it unnecessarily divides the fat community - I think it highlights areas where we as a community fail. As I've been looking more into fat liberation on tumblr I've definitely noticed a lack of super/infini fat people and a lack of acknowledgment of their existence entirely. I think the priority of fat liberation should be to lift up the fattest among us, and that labels like super/infini/death fat draw attention to that fact, which makes a lot of smaller fat people uncomfortable.
I definitely agree, we need to uplift all fat ppl and ppl on the heavier end of the spectrum are often left out! A lot of small and midfats have the internalized fatphobia of being a "healthy fat" or "good fat" and that is kften taken out on super and infinifats.
I want to clarify that i said it *could* divide us, and by that i meant i dont want the fat community to separate into size camps that see themselves as separate from each other. I dont anticipate this happening really seriously, but it is a pattern that has arisen in some label-based identity politics. I hope im explaining that clearly - i dont mind or care if ppl identify w these terms, i just dont want us to not feel united as 1 fat community, u know?
Of course thank u for sharing ur perspective, it definitely gave me more to think about!
