I love the little AU that skinny people live in where they have the same problems as fat people and can relate to the Experience. artists references are only for fat bodies, artists that do draw thin bodies are getting DMs from people going like "omg I'm so happy I discovered your art, it's so rare to find an artist who draws small bodies!!!!! for the first time I see people who look like me 😭😭" skinny people going "omggg I finally found a clothing brand that sells nice dresses in XS, I wish they weren't so so overpriced though" skinny people getting home from the doctor's office and collapsing on the couch to tell their roommate that their doc spent the whole appointment quizzing them about their diet and they were told they need to gain 40 pounds. but the doctor didn't want to check out the weird scraping sound they make when they breathe in, just that they should probably gain weight first. skinny celebrities and influencers spending thousands of dollars getting plastic surgery to transfer fat to their stomachs and jawlines. all the main characters in tv shows are fat. when you watch cartoons as a kid, there's one skinny character, and they're really dumb and annoying and get laughed at by the other characters. they're a loser and never get a boyfriend/girlfriend. the same clothes that are stylish when worn by fat people just get you made fun of. desirable romantic leads and manic pixie dream girls twirl their hair and say "yeeah I've just been fat my whole life, I just never lose weight no matter what I eat hehe" and this is an extremely endearing and attractive trait.
#this is exactly what ive been trying to say.#fat people will enter a store in the mall mid 2000s and find exactly nothing that will fit them. because stores didnt MAKE them past size 10#i had NO CHOICE but to wear the old lady clothes. when i was supposed to be shoping in the KIDS section#plus size clothing options in the 2000s were NON EXISTANT or the most bland ugly and unflattering shit you could ever see#you had shows like the biggest loser and my 600lb life that your mother wanted to watch with you to encourage you to lose weight#imagine sitting in the changing room at age 14 in your underwear sobbing quietly because your mom keeps trying to bring back clothes#that fit you. and nothing in the entire store does. you spent HOURS trying on every single outfit trying to find SOMETHING and your mom#your mom trying her damndest to tell you that some of them look really good on you but you blth know youre lying#like come on.#you had to hang around awkwardly while your friends tried on outfits at the mall knowing youre just there to gas them up#the embarrasment of a friend telling you to try on thisboutfit because hey! it looks totally your style!#and then having to exist after a long time wearing the same clothes you went in with because it just didnt fit so bad you couldnt show them#tell me skinny people could you not find SHOES because your feet were wide?#do not even fucking look at me when it came to bathing suits. dont even try me
